What reviewers say
TFTCentral and AnandTech praised the high resolution, wide gamut and broad connectivity for a 2010 monitor. TFTCentral found the Adobe RGB factory mode useful but considered the small pixel pitch an adjustment; AnandTech noted the high price and substantial power use of the CCFL backlight.
