I bought this monitor as an upgrade to my 35" 21:9 and couldn't be more impressed. There are zero dead pixels, and the color was more than acceptable out of the box. My RX5700 XT is able to push the pixels for gaming (The Outer Worlds, PGA 2K21) at over 100 FPS. The OSD is clunky and unintuitive, as just about every review has noted, but I knew what to expect, and the remote control alleviates that issue. Aside from some settings being in unexpected places, using the remote to control the OSD is a breeze. However, AOC isn't known for making particularly good OSDs, so I'm not going to knock of a star for this review. Besides, it's not like most people spend much time fiddling with settings after they get the monitor setup.
For work, forget about it. If you open a single spreadsheet zoomed to 150%, this will display it out to column BC, which is absolutely absurd. If you open two spreadsheets side-by-side zoomed to 150%, it will display both to column AB. I have Windock to create zones for windows, and I can have 4 side-by-side windows open without squinting!
I went with this over the comparable Samsung because it did have early issues that resulted in a recall, and aside from the OSD complaints, the AOC one got good reviews. This monitor is entirely worth the price. Just buy it.
