What reviewers say
Reviewers agree it is one of the best ultrawide gaming monitors, praising its accurate, vivid colours, smooth and responsive 360Hz gaming, clear text without fringing and useful features. RTINGS found blacks still look grey in bright rooms, Tom's Guide found it a little dim and expensive, and Club386 noted high power draw and some brightness variation across the panel.

Pros and cons
Pros
- 5th-gen QD-OLED panel with an RGB-stripe subpixel layout, which MSI says reduces colour fringing on text
- 360 Hz with 0.03 ms grey-to-grey response, VESA DisplayHDR True Black 500 and a 1,300-nit peak
- USB-C with DisplayPort Alt Mode and 98 W charging, plus a KVM switch and two USB-A ports
Cons
- The DisplayPort 2.1a input runs at UHBR13.5, not the full UHBR20
- No built-in speakers
- 3440 × 1440 on 34 inches is about 110 ppi, so text is less sharp than on a 27-inch 4K monitor (163 ppi)
