I like the diagonal, 24.5" sound great! (I’m sick of reading news about 32" monitors… I don’t have room for that!)
I like Freesync, 144Hz, and the reasonable price (sort of).
But I don’t like that it’s TN

. VA or even IPS would be good. I’m not buying a TN monitor ever again.

Not sure why they keep releasing 1080p TN......

That is a bit of a silly comment.
I am going to stop there....and let you think about it.

Its almost as if some people prefer cheap, high refresh rate over panel quality.

I know people who still use 19" 4:3 monitors (think 1280x960) today, simply because their income is way too small for upgrading (living in failed economy countries)

When they eventually manage to gather enough money to change something, it's good that there are options !
Not so long ago a shitty 60hz FHD 21.5" TN was more expensive than this one... so it's great that now you can get 144Hz with Freesync for that money !

Back in the day most people I knew would gladly sacrifice image quality for a higher framerate. I'm still of the opinion that high fps is better than image quality when it comes to conventional shooters. Of course, everyone would like both, but smoothness of motion definitely adds a feeling of realism that image quality alone can't provide.
