The popularity of models for eSports is growing, because electronic competitions themselves are attracting more and more attention every year.

This manufacturer has not yet been in the selection, but the reason for this is not the lack of worthy specimens, but rather the presence of too powerful and expensive models. However, everything immediately becomes clear, just look at the features of the model.
So: Full HD in combination with Low Blue Light Plus technologies (protection from the harmful effects of blue) and Flicker-Free make the model extremely successful for financial workers and people whose lives are in constant contact with a computer.
