IMPORTANT!!
"ZeroFlicker" technology is enabled - bad because we may get originally motion blur, likely "traditional" backlight. Therefore I don't like this technology. And people also not.

I'd think that this whole ZeroFlicker is nothing more but a combination of high refresh rate and quality backlight (not ****ty PWM without filters).

However at this price, I'd rather think about EIZO Foris.

I saw you mentioning the EIZO Foris series in another monitor announcement before (regarding the Philips 144Hz monitor), and thus took a look at them. I noticed that unfortunately, all the (current?) monitors in the EIZO Foris series are 60Hz. Do you really find these monitors comparable then? It's really a discussion between image quality and refresh rate I guess, but the reason this monitor is expensive is obviously because of the 144Hz aspect.

I'm personally using a 120Hz panel (Samsung s27a750d). I love this display in terms of both image quality (beautiful vibrant colors) as well as smoothness (120Hz). I don't have a lot of experience with high end IPS panels, but this monitor easily surpasses the roughly $200 IPS panels I've seen thus far (mostly Dell monitors) in terms of image quality. Just trying to say that I don't think TN necessarily means terrible image quality. Personally, when I now use 60Hz monitors, I get the feeling the mouse is broken as soon as I start moving it around (because of the lower refresh rate). I'm just really waiting for that high-res 120Hz monitor myself.
