  I havn't tried Philips before, but IPS WQHD 144HZ，only $319, should be a good deal.

  Likely has the minute row/column of pixels view angle issue similar to other panels

  Is this a decent monitor? I managed to get one, but don’t know if it’s any good. Mostly need it for work.

    See reviews for the AOC U34G3X - likely identical performance. (AOC and Philips under the same parent company, MMD Display)

    I bought it, but not sure if I want it. I may be able to sell it to you for cost price. Haven’t done my due diligence if this monitor is any good.

          @pinkybrain: Specs are similar but no reviews found.

            @dealhunter52: also notice

            • the xiaomi is VA panel, this one is is IPS
            • xiaomi is curved, this monitor is not curved..

            not sure if that makes much of difference
            but usually people get curve ultrawide for better gaming immersion and image looking less wash out

              @pinkybrain: You're right! I missed those points you mentioned. Positive for being IPS but negative for being not curved.

                @dealhunter52: yeah, it makes sense now why this monitor is ultrawide IPS 144hz and cheap price for those specs..
                if it was curved it would be a lot more expensive.

                In regards to the image being less wash out..
                probably it might be more of an issue with VA than IPS screen..
                though I am not sure how wash out VA it would look in real life.. probably not as bad as it seems

                It is probably the gaming immersion that is the biggest factor for ultra wide screens.
                Don't see many people buying non curve ultrawide.

    I wouldn’t do it at 300, you’ll be feeling inferior missing 700 pixels vs 4K for years and years and wanting to upgrade

    how else are they going to sell those monitors
