  1. Q2 202620/1002.0★3 reviews

    Mixed picture quality and basic camera/mic, but plagued by standby high-pitched whine, weak speakers, and frustrating tech support.

    • High-pitched noise when monitor goes to standby; workaround needed.
    • Speakers too quiet; HDMI audio unusable, USB-C barely passable.
    • Tech support unhelpful: repeated questions, no resolution.
    • Picture acceptable for non-discerning users; camera and mic adequate.
  2. Q3 202333/1004.0★3 reviews

    Buyers praised the USBC dock and display quality, but others reported units failing within months and poor customer support. Speakers and overall business suitability received strong criticism.

    • Monitor develops horizontal and vertical lines within months; units fail after 6 months.
    • Speakers are terrible for music and video conferencing; not suitable as business monitor.
    • Customer support is unhelpful; nice but unable to resolve issues or provide replacements.
    • USBC power delivery and dock excellent; single cable convenience praised.
  3. Q4 202240/1004.0★3 reviews

    Buyers noted weak speakers and VESA mount recess too small for some wall mounts. Screen quality praised, but resolution compatibility issues with older PCs were a negative.

    • Excellent screen quality and USB-C power delivery are appreciated.
    • Internal speakers are considered weak.
    • VESA mount recess is too small for some aftermarket wall mounts.
    • Resolution compatibility issues with older PCs, such as Windows XP.
