Perfect

Best monitor ever.

The Sony 4k monitor is incredible! It has a great design and is perfect for gaming lovers or someone who wants a high-end resolution screen.It has impressive specs and is surprisingly lightweight for its size. It is really easy to set up and the ports are plenty with ideal placement. There is everything included in the packaging to get up and running. I love the stand that is included with the screen. It is convenient and has a small footprint while allowing 360-degree rotation, height adjustment and tilt. It definitely makes the screen better to set up and use.The screen resolution and quality is incredible. The colours are rich and accurate, the contrast is deep and the peak brightness is top-notch. The visuals are stunning whether you are gaming or watching high-quality videos. The 160Hz refresh rate and 1ms response time deliver sharp visuals when gaming and there is absolutely no blur or latency issues at all. Added to this is the G-sync and adaptive that ensures there is no stutters or tearing at any point. It runs smoothly with no nasty surprises to interrupt.It has no in-built speakers which is surprising given the price range. However, this is no issue as I always use my own external speakers and headset. There is a 3.5mm headset jack and plenty of ports to use for Bluetooth adapters.This is the best monitor I have used so far without a doubt. It has a great balance of high-end features and performance hardware and comes with Sony's brand quality and reliability. It's absolutely worth it.

There's no denying it. This monitor is impressive as heck. The blacks are deep, deep and rich. The colours are vibrant (as long as you enable HDR *and* turn off the power saving mode). It gets painfully bright. The competition mode looks incredible - the OLED panel looks truly like a bezel, somehow even crisper. It's impressive.It's very nearly bezelless. It's mountable with a VESA mount onto a stand. I've not made it up to 480fps but even at half that it's buttery smooth. If you're a pro gamer, it's an *incredibly* slick piece of kit.Now onto the less good. Sadly, this is realistically a single use gaming monitor. Obviously, you wouldn't buy this if you didn't need it to game, but I used to game using the same desk/monitor as I did for work. My work laptop is, unfortunately, nothing like my gaming rig in terms of power, and this means it's a struggle.Firstly, there's no USB C in. HDMI or DP only. Seems a real shame to pay £1.2k for a monitor and not get a USB C port? (And no KVM either, which other monitors in the same price range do get). There's no daisy chaining either (no DP-out).It also looks *bad* at 1080p. I've played around with the settings a lot, and if I turn sharpening up to max, and fiddle with a few other settings, it's just about usable. But everything feels slightly fuzzy and blurry. After two weeks I haven't removed that blur, and I've actually gone back to my old (£300) monitor for productivity. I've also not found a way to make the colours look nice without HDR. I'm sure there is one. But Ill be darned if I can find it; I've gone through so many menus and modes.Ultimately, if you have £1200 to burn on a monitor to use exclusively for gaming and have a ££££ rig to make the best of it - yeah it's bloomin' beautiful. Truly something special. If you ever want to connect your basic b-tch work laptop to it while you bring home the bacon that pays for your hobby, you're SOL I'm afraid, and it's a real, real shame.

I bought this monitor with the intention of replacing my work monitor with the benefit of also being good for gaming on my personal PC.Connecting to my Mac was not seamless, for some reason it would only connect to HDMI2 and not HDMI1. I tried with two different cables, a regular 4k cable that worked in HDMI 2 but compressed the image when HDR was enabled and a newer 2.1 cable that also only worked on HDMI 2 but did not compress the image when HDR was enabled due to the extra bandwidth the cable is able to carry.The picture quality is good but not amazing. Text and sharpness is great as expected on a high dpi 4k monitor and colours were fairly vivid. The downside with this monitor is that it is does not have a full mini-LED array and the LEDs it does have are quite large meaning if you view say white text on a dark background with local dimming enabled then you will see a big glow around the text as the leds are not small enough to only light up a small portion of the screen. It is better than a monitor that has no local dimming and I assume it works better with media content such as games and films however I did not end up testing this functionality. My feeling is that this monitor has no business being so expensive at the current price however given the limited LED technology. You can buy similarly priced OLED monitors including the M10S which is only a couple hundred pounds more however I did not want to go down the OLED route due to possible burn in when using primarily for work purposes. It is somewhat unique in its LED technology and there is a lack of comparable mini-LED monitors on the market however I still feel this does not justify the price even with Sony tax.As mentioned I assume and have read in other reviews that it does hold up better while gaming or watching film content however if that is your primary motivation for purpose I have to wonder why anyone would not just buy a similarly priced OLED and get the benefit of per pixel lighting.My main gripe though was that once set up on the stand the monitor did not sit straight! It was tilted down on one side by around 1cm which was unacceptable to me as it would drive me mad and is also something I do not think we should be seeing on a monitor at this price. The attachment point of the stand to the square plate also had some play in it which meant it could be pushed further in on one side, not by much but still not great in terms of quality.Ultimately I did not bother testing with games as I primarily bought as a work device and after trying it out ultimately decided to return. I imagine games would look fairly decent however as mentioned if that is your primary use case then I would go OLED personally.
