Professional reviewers commend the MO32U for its superb 4K QD-OLED image quality, rapid 165 Hz refresh rate, and extensive ergonomics, describing it as a sweet spot for high-end gaming and content creation. Criticisms focus on the absence of DisplayPort 2.1, occasional HDR highlight blow-out, minor subpixel-induced text fringing, and a mid-range system latency of 27 ms.
Everyday users rave about the monitor's color accuracy, intuitive OSD and the convenience of the built-in KVM, often calling it the best monitor they've owned. Recurring complaints involve limited stock availability, the glossy screen reflecting light in bright rooms, and the lack of built-in speakers.
