Parting Thoughts
It’s certainly a great move to enter the Malaysian market with such offerings, I’m an IPS monitor user myself and admittedly there isn’t much choice but now with that RM 499 model, things look pretty good. The only downside about that RM 499 model is that it’s only limited to up and down pivot of the panel, no height and orientation adjustment.
