AOC U2879VF 28" 4K 3840 x 2160 UHD Gaming Monitor, 1ms Response Time, 10-bit Panel w/ Over 1 Billion Colors, AMD FreeSync, 20M:1 SmartContrast, DisplayPort/HDMI/DVI/VGA Inputs

Pros: Got this on sale for $270 during the holidays. -decent picture quality -has lots of input options DVI, HDMI, DisplayPort, vga -has picture in picture (handy cause i got 2 systems hooked up to it. Now i can do go back and forth between the two just by looking at the corner instead of changing input signals. -has free sync (40-60hz range) -stand seems solid -lots of menu options for adjusting settings. -works fine with windows 10, 8.1 and 7 -in addition to being able to adjust the setting yourself there a several pre-set options for anyone who finds all the settings overwhelming.

Cons: -no remote, makes changing settings tedious -manual and driver are only available via website. -no speakers (knew that when purchased) though windows still defaults to the monitor for audio. I think its because there is a version of this monitor where the only different is the speakers so windows doesn't know the difference. -free sync range is a little tight, only 40-60hz. -stand only swivels up and down. No side to side. -Colors seemed a bit washed for my taste but i may lean towards a vary vivid color palate. -definitely need to adjust scaling in windows at 4k.

Overall Review: the monitor won't blow you away but for a budget 4k panel its a great deal at $300 or less. At the $400+ range there are better panels. I mostly use it for gaming and again at the price i don't have any real complaints about it. I'm annoyed by free sync getting turned off every time i turn on pip but thats not exactly the end of the world. Also the exact functions of the settings are unclear even after you go through the "digital" manual. So for the most part be prepared to experiment a bit.

Pros: Great product, nice quality, competitive price...

Cons: Wish the stand was more adjustable

Pros: - Display is crisp and vibrant - no dead pixels, color is accurate, no flickering, etc. - Looks great - easy to put together. - Perfect size - 4k looks fantastic at this size.

Cons: - Not really con, but at the time of this review the price has actually increased since I bought it on 1/28/2016 - which was ~$350.

Overall Review: Another reviewer said their monitor looked washed out, but I'm not experiencing this issue. I've compared to other led lcd monitors and TVs and this monitor appears very accurate and bright.

Pros: - 4K resolution is very pleasant to the eye - Large screen helps a lot if you are a programmer and use applications that require a lot of screen real estate. You'll spend more time developing and not scrolling around the screen. - Although it is not an adjustable stand, it seems sturdy enough and monitor does not wobble when you type. - Nice looking slick design and seems to have good construction quality. - Have not found any screen imperfections or dead pixels.

Cons: - The OSD takes some time to learn how to use. It will not come up unless there is an active input to the monitor. Initially I thought the OSD was locked out. - Does not work very smoothly with multiple input connections/monitors. Sometimes it is a real chore to switch between monitor sources. Apparently, this issue often happens when using a 4K monitor in conjunction with other lower resolution monitors. - Had to fiddle around with monitor settings to get it to work with my older Lenovo yoga laptop at full 4K resolution. Discovered that had to set the DP configuration to 1.1 to get it to work (default DP setting is 1.2).

Overall Review: - Overall, great monitor value and cons are minor. - Would be nice if it had one more DP input port, and mini HDMI.

Pros: *28 inch 4K monitor with a good price and LED back lighting. *Ability to split screen up to 4 (picture in picture) pc's or tablets, phones, etc. at the same time. *Freesync is a bonus if you have the correct graphics card and

Cons: No vesa mount, no included CD with software like the "I-menu" and no way to download from website

Overall Review: If you want to take advantage of the max resolution @ 60Hz you must have a display port 1.2 or HDMI 2.0 graphics card, otherwise it will default to 30Hz

Pros: 4K as its intended purpose. 60 Hertz mainstream. Provides a decent cable starter package to get it going only Dual DVI is missing regarding the connections. Please take in the conditions i accepted. -I know this is a TN monitor. "Yes, i already own TN, do no video production and face it head on, no prob." -I know this is free-sync. OK " While i am aware that my 1080 will not use the technology. I, like many casual gamers target the 60FPS which i can achieve within exceptable settings, no prob." -I know this has no VESA mount option. "Indeed, at a point in investing in my setup as a whole i did consider the idea of mounting to allow for more table real-estate i know I'm waiving this option. Too bad but oh well."

Cons: -While i respect the built in and software menu i do notice i am not able to adjust my brightness past 80 before i see a grayed box in the top left corner. "This is a defect and i am aware. I'm happy to have the warranty with protection plan. I will not exceed the brightness threshold. Out of sight out of mind for now." the base to screw into has the hook under latch that aligns it before it screws in which can not line up. Be careful not to strip. "Not a hard task, but room for error is close to zero. Sending back day one over a stripped screw or base would have made me feel like a jerk."

Overall Review: I am using this at a work and play station. Windows7 and Windows10. -Using VGA for the work aspect connecting to a HP Elitebook-8470p on the docking station. recognize without issues just needed to rearrange the displays for smooth left to right movement. -Using Displayport to a Zotac GTX-1080 with free-sync turned off. -The small adjustment tilt the monitor is able to perform is all i need to keep in line with another monitor for both work and play. I mainly want you to except this is a budget monitor. Check the few reviews on youtube of this model and know what to expect and except. Understand the higher refresh rate, IPS, larger size and G-sync come with the extra price. My mission was for a recent monitor with the resolution, display size and diverse connection. yours may differ. I do recommend downloading the manual directly from AOC website. http://us.aoc.com/product_feature.php?id=22 AOC Monitor software link: http://www.aocmonitorap.com/v2015/upload_files/driver/i-Menu-4.3.6-AOC-setup/

Pros: I'm one of those dinosaurs that used a very old LED monitor (2003) with my very old laptop until 2016. How stupid could I be? After building a new computer server I needed a new monitor for both computers. I watched the Newegg Daily deals for a monitor and finally pulled the trigger on this one. Thank goodness I did as this simplified my life saving time and money in the long run. This monitor comes with all the essentials for us old dinosaurs. It has a Display Port for my new computer server rendering graphics with my $480 graphics card with precision. It has a HDMI port rendering graphics as a second monitor for my old laptop. Then beyond imagination it even includes a VGA port which I used to rebuild my VERY old Linux SSH server. The thing I like most is everything is automatic as the monitor recognizes whatever device you fire up connected to it. This saves me a TON of time not trying to dial in what device is connected to the monitor and explaining to my wife how to do that. I've only had the monitor about 6 months so I cannot attest to its longevity. ThatCyberSecurityGuy.com, LLC

Cons: The stand could have been more adjustable. For example, I have an office desk where I need to raise the monitor to eye level. Sure you can put a book under the monitor stand but it would be cool if the monitor would allow you to adjust height.

Pros: Cheap for a 4k monitor Excellent screen Stylish

Cons: Buttons to adjust it are small and hard to get to. No height adjustment Glossy plastic leaves fingerprints

Overall Review: I would say despite its flaws, still a good buy.
