        I had it for about a month. Default setting has very greyish blacks even for ips panel so i used built-in Xbox One calibration guide and now it looks good enough.

        If you want optimal settings without too much hassle, i would recommend setting smart mode to sRGB, black level to 20, and brightness to your liking (between 0-20 in dark lit and 40 to 60 in average lit rooms ).

            I have been using this monitor with my M1 Macbook pro. The color accuracy and contrast are horrible on this display. It seems that there is a gray layer covered the screen and everything looks bad. The black color, really looks like gray. However, when the monitor is connected to windows laptop, there is no issue.

            Is there any setting or color profile to fix the this.

                I have major problems getting it to wake up with M1 MacMini (sometimes wakes, sometimes doe not), and my MacBook Pro 2016 with DP doesn't connect. Keep away!

                  Clown, 16 Aug 2021so what's 2560x1440p called? 2,5k? 🤡QHD

                    L657, 16 Aug 2021Yes it is 2560x1400 is 2kNo it is not.

                      Clown, 16 Aug 2021so what's 2560x1440p called? 2,5k? 🤡4K is called 4K because it's 2160x4096. The horizontal resolution is about 4K pixels.

                      The horizontal resolution of 1440p is generally 2560. The horizontal resolution of 1080p is generally 1920. So you're telling me 2560 is closer to 2K than 1920?

                      And you call me the clown? Go back to the circus with your other jokes.

                        500€, where?

                        You can get it on Banggood (EU warehouse) for 330€!

                          Mi Computer Light Bar, if it is for keyboards,
                          gotta suck for those with a keyboard drawer.

                            Anonymous, 16 Aug 2021Sounds like you're a bit confused? I didn't talk ... moreAnd for a monitor 2k is a lot. Even in 2021 most of them are 1080p.

                            People mix different products and say hey my phone is 4K since 2-3 years and my monitor is 1080p only. Well, it is how it is.

                                -8GB single channel RAM (vs the InBook’s 4GB dual channel RAM), and soldered to the motherboard
                                -Poor TN LCD screen
                                -Heatsink far away from processor (poor cooling), gets up to 93 degrees
                                -Cheap hinge (vs the InBook)
                                -RAM slot not utilized

                                Xiaomi is clueless when it comes to the laptop segment. Infinix did it better.
