FAQs

Does this monitor support gaming?

It features a 75Hz refresh rate and a 4ms response time, making it suitable for productivity and casual gaming, though it is not primarily marketed as a high-performance gaming monitor.

Can I use this with a MacBook?

Yes, it is compatible with Mac OS X, though ensure your Mac model supports the output resolution via USB-C or DisplayPort.

What is the SmartKVM feature?

It allows you to control two separate computers using one mouse and keyboard setup by switching the input signal through a keyboard command.

Does the USB-C cable transmit internet?

Yes, if the monitor is connected to a network via the RJ-45 port, it provides internet connectivity to your laptop via the USB-C cable.

Is the height adjustable?

Yes, the monitor features a height adjustment range of up to 15 cm for ergonomic comfort.

Troubleshooting

Monitor not charging laptop via USB-C

Ensure you are using a high-quality USB-C cable that supports Power Delivery and that your laptop's port is compatible.

SmartKVM shortcut not switching input

Verify that all required upstream cables are connected and check OSD settings to ensure the SmartKVM feature is enabled.

Screen flickering or artifacts

Check all cable connections and ensure you are using the correct display settings for the native 5120 x 1440 resolution at 75Hz.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Expansive screen real estate replaces dual-monitor setups
  • Clean one-cable USB-C connectivity with power delivery
  • SmartKVM feature simplifies multitasking across devices
  • Excellent ergonomic adjustments
  • Integrated RJ-45 for stable wired networking

Cons

  • Requires significant desk footprint
  • 75Hz refresh rate may be insufficient for high-end gaming
  • Heavy unit requires a sturdy desk

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Given the monitor's 15.3kg weight with the stand, ensure your desk is stable and level. Mount the monitor using the 100x100mm VESA interface if you prefer a monitor arm, but verify your arm supports the weight and width of a 49-inch curved panel.

Compatibility: The monitor supports Windows 11/10/8.1/8 and Mac OS X. Use the provided USB-C cable for the best one-cable experience. Ensure your host computer's USB-C port supports Power Delivery and DisplayPort Alt Mode.

Care: Clean the anti-glare screen only with a dry, soft, lint-free cloth. Avoid aggressive cleaning agents. Keep the display out of direct sunlight and in a stable temperature environment to preserve panel life.
