You’ll get some color shift in exchange for that responsiveness at the highest setting, but you also have access to a user-defined setting, which has 63 steps of intensity to cycle through, letting you easily find a balance that suits your needs. Response time overdrive settings have three presets – off, normal and high. The Eve Spectrum 4K monitor looks and plays like a dream, and the fun starts with its fully-featured OSD menu.Īs well as the usual connectivity options, color tweaks and overdrive settings, the OSD has toggles for a crosshair overlay for first-person shooters, low-latency settings, adaptive sync settings (which are on by default for G-Sync and FreeSync fans), response time settings and backlight strobing options, as well as a frame rate counter. Though it’s small and unobtrusive enough, its power cable is rather short, meaning you’re going to have to leave it on your desk beside the monitor, or face seeing it dangle to the ground. If there’s one shortcoming from a design point of view, it's with the power brick. We had a few minor issues with the auto-port switching functionality failing to recognize a change in power states, but it was nothing deal-breaking.
For reference, our review was conducted on the base, straight-out-of-the-box firmware version 101.

These ports can also be used to manually update the firmware of the monitor from a thumb drive as Eve releases more features and updates. It’s great to have that flexibility, depending on your needs. The on screen menu lets you choose whether to prioritize refresh rate for the monitor (144Hz) over USB-C, dropping the USB hub to USB 2.0 speeds, or keep the monitor at a modest 60Hz over USB-C, while accessing faster USB 3.1 bandwidth speeds from the hub. There’s also a USB-C upstream connection, delivering a mammoth 100w power delivery along with video, while also keeping a built-in USB hub running (which features a 15W USB-C port and two USB-A 3.1 ports).

As well as a DisplayPort 1.4a input, you’ve got a pair of HDMI 2.1 connections – the ports needed to hit the 4K / 120Hz highs of the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X, complete with the full RGB color palette without chroma subsampling, and with HDR too. It’s the port selection that really sets the Eve Spectrum 4K apart though. Clipping and removing the monitor from the stand is a piece of cake though, with a latch to easily slide the display from its moorings. It can’t swivel though, and leaves about 7cm of clearance off a desk even at its lowest elevation. As for the stand, it can rotate to a vertical orientation, tilt from 23 to -7 degrees and has a range of 122mm height adjustment. There are no speakers on the monitor, and just a power button and four-way menu joystick on the rear for tweaking menu settings in terms of physical controls, and that’s your lot. It’s not a cheap item then, but it’s also as good as things get at this price. However you look at it, that’s pretty good value – if you’re already equipped with a monitor stand, you’re saving yourself a chunk of change by skipping on the stand, while the complete $898 price is on a par with the LG Ultragear 27GP950 – the 4K premium gaming monitor that Eve’s model is closest to in terms of features. However, that doesn’t include the monitor’s stand, which is sold separately for $99 / €99 (around £70 / AU$135). You can pick up the Eve Spectrum 4K for just $799 / €799 (around £580 / AU$1090). It’s worth the wait though, and its pricing is fair.
The Eve Spectrum 4K 144Hz monitor started life as a crowd-funded monitor, so while it is technically available right now, at the time of writing it is on backorder until August 2021. For the fully-equipped gamer, the Eve Spectrum 4K 144Hz is an essential part of your arsenal.
