Cons
Con Buttons can be unresponsive
The captive buttons on the right side of the bottom bezel don't light up at all, and can be unresponsive when you first try to activate them.
Con Poor panel uniformity
While this will vary unit to unit, TFT Central found that the luminance uniformity on their unit was poor. The right side of the screen was up to 30% brighter than the left corners of the screen. It wasn't obvious at first glance, however for color-accurate work it could become an issue.
Con Expensive
There are many equally-sized 4K panels that offer the same functionality as the 34WK95U while costing substantially less.
