good colours
high refresh rate
Functional G Sync throughout the entire range (even at lower Hz ).
Stable base. Positionable
No speakers (I rate this as a plus, because repro on monitors is usually bad)
colour calibration is required. help RTINGS, where you can download the ICC profile

After about fifteen years of gaming, I switched to a monitor with a higher refresh rate at the expense of resolution. Up until now I was running on a Samsung U28E590, 4K with 60Hz, after buying this G5 I realized how wrong my previous monitor purchase was. It's not just about the frequency mentioned, it's about the colours, sharpness and clarity of the image, which is absolutely incomparable compared to the aforementioned monitor. In short, there's a reason to buy a dedicated monitor for gaming, although the price of "work" monitors may be more tempting. I paid extra for the "flat" version, because the sagging is not important for such small monitors and I do not regret it, viewing angles are sufficient, color distortion is not noticeable if you also have two monitors next to each other and you are not sitting directly opposite either of them. Maybe I've balanced the colors well, maybe it's the higher refresh rate but no eye fatigue after 8 hours. I am not an expert to evaluate professionally but as a long time player I can absolutely recommend it. The mentioned cons are only subjective imperfections of an otherwise good product.
1440p image is nicer and clearer than the previous 4K monitor
The depiction of the colours took my breath away
Refresh rate up to 165Hz
Wide range of settings incl. saving profiles for play/work/night mode etc.
VESA 100, almost centered on the center of gravity
Connecting without problem, made friends with PC right away
For some reason I'm running "only" at 144Hz but that would be my fault
A negligible minus is the black frame around the image, it looks like a poorly set screen resolution
I could do without the design elements at the bottom and the rounded back, I prefer sharp edges and simpler shapes
Wiring is more tricky after installing the stand/bracket

The monitor is great, just probably a power hog. In games, the above positives are really noticeable. I switched to that 24" monitor and I wouldn't go back. If you're serious about partying and want to enjoy it, really at least 27". But beware, definitely not with just FHD. And just a funny story at the end. Nowhere in the description does it say whether the monitor has a cable in the package. So I'm going to pick up my order and come to the showroom in Holešovice. Right off the bat I'm asking for info, does this monitor have any cable in the package? The answer, he doesn't. Great, I'll order the display port cable quickly. I open the box at home and? Yeah, there's a display port cable. That's how business is done: -)

monitor had one dead pixel, unfortunately in the middle of the screen If you plan to use a monitor for two PCs, you have to manually change the input source, in the menu there is an option of automatic selection according to the input signal, this option is in the settings, but when changed blocked. and I did not find a firmware update for this model anywhere
