The monitor is great for the most part. My main issue is that the usb-c hub charging function does not work well with 14 inch MacBook Pro M2 (which was the reason I bought it). It charges ok when battery is about 70% but if I plug it and the battery is below 70% it start connecting/disconnecting rapidly for few seconds and then it completely disconnects. With the smart charge feature turned on and the monitor screen brightness set at below 20% it delivers 90w charging and it charges the MacBook when the laptop’s screen is closed (consuming less power). My conclusion is that the monitor does not have enough power to charge the laptop when it requires higher power at lower battery levels. The laptop’s own charger is rated at 96 watts. The monitor is rated at 65W and up to 90W when smart charge ON (but you have to lower screen brightness to <20% to get to that level of power).
In conclusion don’t buy if you like to charge the MacBook Pro, otherwise it’s a great monitor.
Update 10/21/23: after few weeks of back and forth with customer service, they sent me a replacement monitor which is able to charge my MacBook at low battery capacity.
