With discount this comes to 350 quid? Can it be beaten for the dosh?

**edit

Well I've ordered it anyway, downgrading from 32" because it's too big realistically, and the DPI isn't great on my current monitor.

As @willhub said, what's everyone's opinion on this monitor?

I am looking for a new monitor as my current one has just died on me!

tempted at £350

Also, does it come with a DP cable etc?

Really happy with mine. Nice step up from my tn dell screen. No panel issues etc. Can't complain at all

Same here. Delighted that the panel is as good as I could have hoped for in terms of QC.

I've got an ETA of 14th October, do they tend to overshoot this date or can it be earlier ?

I noticed this last night.

Seems like they are waiting on stock as it said the eta was the 13th when I last checked.

Thanks for the replies everyone

I'm absolutely loving mine, it replaced an 8 year old 24" TN panel so the difference was night and day. Next to my other IPS it's still noticeable better, the build quality is also excellent.
Now I just need a graphics card that can make the most of the refresh rate

Mine had an ETA of 29/09 but arrived a week early. From what other people have said it seems the ETA is more of an "at the latest" estimate.

My monitor that died was a LG 22EA63 - 21.5" 1080P monitor at 60fps which is also about 6 years old.

Well I took the plunge and ordered the monitor.

Looking forward to this arriving!

Got the monitor yesterday - extremely impressed with it so far - waiting for a 3080 to put it through its paces.

I have installed the drivers and the utility tool - some nice features.

Originally had an order for an asus tuf screen - but happy I changed over to this.

I ordered from John Lewis as did not want to wait too long and already had an unused voucher so pretty much matched the Dell price that was available

My scheduled delivery was for the 13th October, it's now being delivered tomorrow!

They don't like discounting popular items.

willhub · 30 Sep 2020 at 08:07

Wow that was quick, mine has shipped over 2 weeks early.

They didn't even take the money till it shipped.

It's scheduled or delivey today and shipped today!
