Viewing Angle

This monitor has a new swivel hinge combo design to help you swivel, tilt, and adjust the height to wherever you feel comfortable. Much like the Samsung CRG9, the viewing angle is wide, giving you the most comfortable vantage point you require for gaming and entertainment watching.

Durability

Even though the device gives you an ultra thin three-sided bezel, just like the Dell S2719DGF 27-inch LED-lit monitor, the screen itself is really durable. Even though the base has a little bit of a plastic feel to it, it still holds strong and the polish silver finish and ultra modern design looks really cool. The screen is also mountable, just like the Dell U3419W.

Ports/Expandability

It’s really easy to add multiple devices to this monitor, with all its ports and inputs. You get the standard HDMI and USB ports, allowing you to add gaming systems, speakers, or other smart devices. You can easily use this screen as a central hub for your gaming, entertainment or work needs.

Value

This is one of the best and largest gaming monitors you can get from a name brand. You are getting some of the best features possible, so you can expect the price to be on the higher side, which this one is. Free shipping and a dependable return policy puts you at ease when it comes to trying this one out.
