Alright my friends.
I purchased 5 of these monitors today
2x 27"
3x 24"
From the 5 boxes i got, two had issues out the box
- One 24" had a dead pixel.
- One 24" had a dead power Brick.
I put the two faulty items (Faulty Monitor + Faulty Power Brick) in one box and went back to the store and got a refund. Decided to take a 27" instead. Insisted on testing it in store, which id did, was happy and left.
So i ended up with 3x 27" and 2x 24". Below i listed the pros and cons for these monitors.
24"
Pros
- Metal Stand
- Good build quality
- 144hz support HDMI and DP
- Seems like a TN panel
- seems like 2ms response time gray to gray
- Average viewing angles
- 2m HDMI 2.0 cable included
- has HDMI, DP, Audio out ports
Cons
- Color calibration is off. Monitors differed in image colors/quality (Not ideal for multi monitor setups)
- Oldschool thick ass bezel
- OSD controls are cheap buttons
- Cant see the led indicator if the monitor is on or not
- Questionable Warranty and support
- Not height adjustable
- brightness levels are average
- Power brick is external
Monitors don't seem to keep user configurations. As soon as the goes off due to Eskom your settings get shedded as well. I lied
- HDR on these monitors are a crock of shit. Completely washed out (Never think to use this "feature")
- Freesync Support
27"

My suggestion is to go for the 27" over the 24" Its just a nicer to look at.
