What reviewers say

Reviewers agree the 6K panel is exceptionally sharp for the price, and praise its brightness, colour modes and Thunderbolt connectivity. The common criticisms are the 60Hz refresh and weak HDR; PCWorld and RTINGS found contrast low, though Tom's Hardware measured it as high, and RTINGS also found the matte coating hazy and the colours cool out of the box.
