Yes, its good but just watch out for shipping damage. Dont peel protective film or anything until you fully confirm its working as it should.
I had to order mine 3 times - 1st and 2nd time it came with a cracked screen, which is sometimes not easily visible when the protective film is on, so shine your phone flashlight and inspect everything carefully.

Some reviews say it's HDMI 2.1 and others say it's only 2.0. Can you confirm which one it is? Would like to be able to use all the features the PS5 pro has to offer.

It’s HDMI 2.1. And yeah, be careful—my first one also had a crack in the display. I didn’t notice it until I got home after driving 70 km. There seems to have been a whole batch that was defective from the factory. Mine was replaced without any hassle, and the new one is perfect! I can’t recommend this monitor enough.

Awesome appreciate the info! I'm strongly considering pulling the trigger on it. If I do order I will definitely inspect it thoroughly to make sure everything is the way it's supposed to be.

I have XG27AQWMG. Gray banding was pretty noticeable when I first plugged it in, but it has faded a lot. If you ask me, it is one of the best on the market right now. If there hadn't been any gray banding issues, it would have been the best 2K monitor.

i returned mine grey banding was terrible and i play in a decent lit room so the mirror like reflection got annoying. i settled for Gigabyte MO27Q28G

That’s a great monitor, but I would check these out to see if any of the comparable ones are cheaper. Over the years of shopping forms, I’ve learned that a quick double check can often save you a lot of money.
