We're aware that Eve is still having supply and shipment issues, please do your own due diligence before supporting them. -LMG Team

Its baffling to me that if you're a company sending one of the largest tech influencers a product to "review", wouldn't you go balls out and make SURE you're sending a primo unit/experience to paint your company/product in the best light??

[xBris]

Eve is just the classic case of "Why is nobody doing this? Can't be that difficult" just to find out that, yeah, it isn't that easy and they're not up to the task. What a surprise.

[localvolta]

Can EVE overcome their tainted history to make the product a buy rather than a bye?

[LnDSuv]

Discussion of eve monitors was banned from r/monitors due to vote manipulation. That's all you need to know lads.

EDIT: im halfway through this video and im glad i bought what i bought

[niko]

I was tempted many times to pre-order this monitor. Extremely glad I didn't now.

"The main problem is compatability" for the only feature that made this monitor special, good looks.

[WickedSlammy]

Gonna be A LOT of canceled orders after this mess. Yikes!

[HamerReviews]

Oh wow, shipping in 1 month and this is the best they could send to reviewers. I’d be pretty terrified if I had one on order right now :/

[EnglandPJ]

"Early unit" = "1 of 10 that we've made and sent out to reviewers"

The timing when he points his hand at the monitor to that startup application opening looked like magic. It was all in the right place at the right time

[extreme]

"What's the worst that can happen..." and the monitor nearly blue-screen died while unplugging 😂😂😂

[ethanmoss]

4:03 the way he flicks his hand and a window opens was pretty cool

The Finnish company behind this is "EVE-tech Oy" and it has initiated bankruptcy filing in 2020 due to unpaid taxes here in Finland...

[Iceify_]

The problem with kick starters: takes 3 months to be in stock again.

[blze]

Moral of this story: buy monitors from the established brands, they're established for a reason.

I made a video about this a week ago. I won't be reviewing crowdfunded or Kickstarter campaigns on my channel no longer. Waste of our time and our viewers. 90% of the time, the products are complete junk. Don't support these companies!

[NightcoreChase]

Finally this review, time to watch, I placed my order almost 6 months ago xD

The cyberpunk wallpaper really complements the monitor.
