Cons
Con Bad viewing angles
Since it's a TN monitor, it has worse viewing angles compared to IPS displays.
Con Bad refresh rate
At 3840 x 2160 it's max 30Hz and at 1920 x 1080 it's max 60Hz.
Con A maximum refresh rate of 60Hz can be a concern for some
A 60Hz monitor, while sufficient for most people in most cases, can still cause issues with fast-moving objects on screen. It's especially important with things like gaming where the ability to react to events happening on the screen quickly is important.
Con AHVA glow
AHVA glow is the light on the sides or corners of the screen that can reduce some of the peripheral detail.
Con Poor dynamic contrast implementation
Dynamic Contrast is an optional feature meant to increase or decrease the back-lighting depending on scene that is displayed in order to get higher dynamic range. Unfortunately, the implementation tends to slightly overshoot on highs regardless of the settings used.
Con Some color temperature uniformity issues
According to Spyder5Elite tests performed by PC Monitor, BL2711U has color temperature issues that can be seen with the naked. A DeltaE deviation of over 3 can be easily noticed and there are deviation of up to 3.8.
