Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Ok, I have used many, many different kinds of displays. Matt screen, glossy, 30", 27", 24", surround with three 27", ect. This is THE best display I've ever used. I am aware of 4K and its ability and I believe this is way better than any 4K at the moment in my opinion. Most 4K runs at 30 Hz and its still in the birthing stage. Its true ability and capabilities will take a couple of years to perfect. First off it's wide, very wide. It's the same aspect ratio of ultra-widescreen movies. It's the same hight as a 27" 2560 X 1440 display with an additional 3-4 inches to each side--hence the 3440 resolution. It's light..about 1/2 the weight of my Apple cinema display being that all metal and glass and this being mostly plastic. It comes pre-calibrated but I had to tinker with the menu to get it to my preferrences. It's matt screened but hardly, and I mean HARDLY. I can see detailed reflections in it. The anti-glare coating is very, VERY light. So light that I wouldnt even class it as matt. It's semi-glossy in my opinion with just enough matt to throw off harsh glares. It runs a smooth 60Hz via DisplayPort and Thunderbolt and 50Hz via HDMI. I guess for hard-core gamers a 120Hz would be desirable but I could never tell any difference. It's plenty fast for me as well with a 5MS responce time. The real winner here for me is the back I/O ports. The thing has a built-in KVM switch and/or Thunderbolt dock. What I have is a brute of a PC and a late 2013 retina MacBook Pro. Both are plugged into the I/O on the back and both run native resolution and sound without any need for any KVM switch! Its built right into the menu on the display. Choose your input and the rear I/O does the magic. I am ONLY using the Thunderbolt port and cable running to my MacBook Pro. Nothing else. No USB, audio, nothing. I am using the display's USB "uplink" to plug into my PC, and then I plug in my only keyboard and only mouse in the back USB "In" ports on the back of the display. All I need to do is use the display's joystick menu controller and switch inputs and its works like a charm! USB data, audio, and display video are all carried over the single Thunderbolt cable to my Mac and the PC is controlled via the USB cables. Wow. Totally awesome and immersive to the core. I have seperate speakers for my PC and the audio from my Mac is passed into the displays speakers which are really not bad. All in all, this display is what I've waited for years to obtain and it's here. Thanks! EDIT 6/18/14, I have been trying to edit my review for a couple weeks now but Amazon wouldn't let me until it became available again. 1) I apologize for my terrible puncuation and spelling originally as I was in a real hurry and excited. It's fixed.(hopefully) 2) I wasn't aware that audio was carried over both Thunderbolt and DisplayPort. I just plugged in my external speakers into the audio out (headphone jack) on the back I/O port on the display and chose the LG UM3495 as my audio out choice on both the PC and Mac and that gets carried over too. The KVM funcionality works with this and switches it as well. Awesome! 3) I have recently purchased a current Mac Mini and can say that the Mini, through Thunderbolt, DOES push this resolution 100% BUT at 50Hz. I can rarely see some hesitation when opening windows through the Mini because of the lack of descrete graphics but that's it. The Mini does just fine. It even pushes some older games at full res without any tearing or screen jitters. If you have a 2012 or later Mini (Intel graphics 4000), this display will work at full res but at 50Hz. Thanks!
