This OLED panel is amazing and well worth the price. The image is crisp, I didn't have any dead pixels, and the panel itself showed up on time. It is HEAVY so make sure you have two people to install it or be extremely careful.
There is a cover over the 100x100 vesa mount, which threw me off because the holes didn't look like they'd line up.
I paired my screen with the North Bayou NB45-B heavy duty adjustable monitor arm. It is more than capable of holding the weight and I have just enough space under my desk credenza now to turn the monitor sideways while still suspended to get to the side connections. HDR works if you're into that. The monitor does have a setting to dim itself if there's no movement on screen for too long. This will take effect if you are say, typing a document and the entire screen is white for a while without scrolling or moving things around. You can turn it off. Be smart though, make sure you use a screen saver and take measures to prevent burn-in if you do.
Interesting anecdote - I used to use a lower priced LG 43" 4k LED tv for a while as a computer monitor, but had to go away from it due to a "bloom" effect near the corners. I think it had something to do with the polarizer, as if you would move farther away from it the effect would go away. This was a problem though, because the colors would not be consistent across the screen. If you're like me and were worried - you can rest easy; the effect is completely non existent with this monitor.

Don’t even bother with ROG or LG this is it 4k OLED u can’t go back even the new LG 240hz OLEd 45” that’s 1440p still won’t beat this cuz off the resolution once you play 4K we can’t go down to 1440P…. And for content creators, this is awesome to KVM support and USB-C is a ++ in my book

I don't usually leave reviews but after paying a premium for the monitor I had to. As the title states, I wanted to love the monitor but.... as you can see per attached photos, I have to return it. I'm not sure if its quality control or possible damage during shipping.
When I received the monitor from UPS🙃, the box had some dings and I noticed a relatively large gash on one side of the box.
I didn't open the box for about 2 weeks as I was waiting for additional parts for my first PC build. Now coming from an old lenovo 1080p monitor that I use for work, the KTC monitor seemed amazing. At least, until I noticed a dead pixel at the bottom right corner while my children were watching animated spider friends to test out the image quality.
I tried a few colored background test and on white and dark/black backgrounds is were I noticed something similar to backlight bleeding and vertical bars as if it was an IPS panel and not OLED. The panel seems damaged/defective? The blacks didn't seem inky as OLEDs are supposed to be.
Nonetheless, I'm disappointed that I have to return the monitor as I would have wanted to keep it, but for the price I just can overlook these issues. Hopefully it was damaged during shipping and not quality control.
