What reviewers say
Reviewers found the UR8 a capable all-rounder, praising its backlight control, high brightness and gaming features. TechRadar found its colours underwhelming in real viewing despite strong measurements, and RTINGS found them inaccurate out of the box; both noted some blur in fast motion, and RTINGS saw haloing around bright objects in dark scenes.
