Admittedly, we've not yet watched a film on the Seiki. We have fired up a few Youtube videos at full-screen and aside from looking comical (due to the large lossy compression artifacts present even in Youtube's highest quality videos), the video seems as smooth as Youtube ever does, at least to my eye.
I suspect for video from a higher-quality source, my opinion would not be so forgiving.
But put briefly, for consuming crummy web content, I have no complaints.
Don't get me wrong. I haven't yet bought one for myself principally because I am waiting for Seiki (or someone) to offer me a similarly priced 4K monitor with HDMI 2 (60Hz). If I got the current model today and a v2 of the Seiki arrived next month with HDMI 2, I would be sad. The 30Hz limitation is the most significant disadvantage of this display. So I wait.
But if you don't want to wait, the 30Hz limitation is tolerable. At <$500 now, it's very hard to restrain myself from just buying another and being done with the temptation.

- Locke1689 13y agoI don't understand why you would want HDMI 2. DisplayPort is pretty much better in every single way.
- bhauer 13y agoDisplayPort is indeed superior and I'd gladly take a cheap UHD monitor with both HDMI 2 and DisplayPort.
