Crappy deign choice for the base of the monitor. It's huge and takes up so much space.
Looks really sturdy and you can always replace it if you don't like it.
Stupid stand, silly power brick & don't know why you need/want a curve on a 27" but to be honest I've not sat in front of it so it could be ok ? Also I don't see why they place lighting on the rear, wouldn't make me want to buy one or think it would be a bonus to have it.
Hopefully it won't be stupid, silly price !

They ditched that stand on the updated 73 models. If your desk faces a wall the monitor will literally be in your face.
It's also too big
For those that don't know, the price is supposed to be ~700 EUR + it's a "fake" HDR with only 600 nits + 8 bit panel.
The reason to be excited about this panel is that it's literally the first monitor to challenge the 2-year old supreme reign of the AU Optronics' M270 panel (27" 144hz 1440p IPS), which is known for terrible QC.
