Yeah unfortunately. If they weren't, I might not have bought it.
I learned a long time ago not to trust Monoprice reviews. They're rigged worst than most sites. I remember buying some Monoprice branded alkaline batteries. Reviews were excellent but they ended up leaking like crazy and destroyed several remotes and flashlights, etc.

This monitor is doing fine so far though. I have been using it continuously everyday for 7 months. The only issue is the occasional milisec flash once a while. But this also happens on my crossover monitors and has been reported in several others like benq, etc. My friend who also bought one is also satisfied with his.
I am sure one day when 8K comes out, 32in 4K will be even cheaper but for now this is the cheapest new 32 in 4k IPS you can buy for $400 FS:

I'd much rather spend twice the money for what Dell has got.

Maybe I should try this one again in horizontal orientation. In vertical it's unusable due to terrible viewing angles.

You used the monoprice 32in in vertical orientation? i didn't think the viewing angles would be any different between vertical and horizonal and i doubt the dell would have better viewing angle if it also use IPS.

the only thing negative so far is the occasional very brief milisec screen flash that might be depends a lot on your video output signal and is also reported with a few other 32in 4k ips like benq. only have one DP and one HDMI 2 for 4K with two HDMI 1.4.
Other than that the stand is a lot better than a lot of the other 32 in 4K low price monitor. FULLY adjustable in every way

If you are running a lab and need multiple 32 in 4K this is really the cheapest way to go. as low as $334 each at 4+ quantity

I hope it will drop back down to like $340 like it did before. at that price there's not really an excuse to not even get one....lol...
once you go 32in 4K you don't want any lower resolution or size. 27in at 4K is a little small for some people. I actually use 24in @ 4K with my portable setup of LG 24UD58 so i don't even mind that but for readability at native 4K 1:1 pixel map, 32in is the right size

I actually use a 43” 4k tv @60hz 4:4:4 and it looks great but have to keep the screen about 3 feet from my eyes to see everything. I have a workflow and split the screen into four 1080p quadrants, with an app in each. Something like 37” - 40 inch would probably be perfect.

try out the 32in. you can now have this on your desk and sit close to it and still see everything

1- What make and model? For mostly text use.
2- What software do you use to "split the screen into four 1080p quadrants.
Thanks!

with this monoprice, you don't need any software to split screen into four 1080p quandrants. you can use all 4 inputs at once to do that. There is a multiwindow setting in the monitor menu
