Anyone here able to vouch for this monitor? Tossing up between this, Dell G2724D or LG 27GP850-B.

Anyone know if they've fixed the unusually high idle wattage with dual-screen setups? Have read about people getting 80w + readings.

Get off your high horse, the M3 is fine for 95% of the population, not everyone is an overpaid techy who needs 24C/64gb Ram.

I currently have a pre paid boost mobile - if I buy this sim do I need to port out to another Telco I.e Telstra then port back in?
