Pros: - IPS Panel with very little light bleed - 165 Hz display - Wide color gamut - Tilt, height and swivel adjustments - Easy toggle menu joystick - Great response time - Better settings out of the box vs previous MSI monitors - USB pass-thru and type-c and audio connections make this a very input rich panel. - Good materials, base is extremely sturdy.
Cons: - Colors may be better out of the box than my MAG272CR but they are not perfect. - Mystic Light RGB strip at the back which you can't really see and doesn't play nice with MSI's own Dragon Center software (keeps resetting to rainbow puke). - "Frameless" only in words. Useless 1/4" border around it makes it useless for multi-monitor setup unless you can live with borders between monitors.
Overall Review: I really like this monitor when considering it's use as a standalone panel. Compared to my previous MAG272CR VA 1080P panel, this IPS 1440P panel is a step above and beyond. The only point where it lags behind is in contrast ratio as with any IPS panel when compared to VA's. The wide color gamut is very apparent and although it comes out of the box a tad oversaturated, most people will enjoy that "vivid" color range even if it's not accurate. The downside of this monitor is really for those looking for a multi-monitor setup. Where that thin border really makes this panel useless to those looking to do a sim-racing or a multi-panel workstation in an extended display setup. For the single panel and competitive gamer, this monitor will work exceptionally well. My monitor out of the box came with no dead pixels and very little backlight bleed as it's normal in IPS monitors. I have read users having different experiences regarding this and it has been the case in most MSI monitors up until now. I haven't had such experience with either of my last two monitors from MSI but this is basically a lottery. Newegg has updated its dead pixel policy so I wouldn't be too worried about it as it's an easy return and replacement.
