Input:
This is hands-down the best in-class monitor, esp at the price. I bought mine for about $440 and the next lowest monitor with comparable specs was at least $150 more.
I also want to give a shout out to all the reviewers/owners who answered my pre-purchase questions. Even the seller answered several questions before I placed my order. Thanks to them, I went in knowing EXACTLY what I was getting, and I think that is why I am so pleased with my purchase.
This is a great monitor if you set your expectations right.
1. Thew monitor does not have any onboard/built-in graphics processor. It is a passive display. So ... make sure you have a compatible GPU in your machine. The list is available on the main product page. I have paired it with&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Sapphire-Radeon-HD6670-Ultimate-1GB-GDDR5-DVI-HDMI-DisplayPort-PCI-Express-Video-Card-100326UL/dp/B005LU2Z1G/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Sapphire Radeon HD6670 Ultimate 1GB GDDR5 DVI/HDMI/DisplayPort PCI-Express Video Card 100326UL</a>&nbsp;which delivers a full 2560*1600 via DVI-D and DP (only 1920*1200 via HDMI). I read somewhere that the screen is an OEM LG product, and Yamakasi simply builds a frame around it. I can't confirm this.
2. This monitor accepts only ONE type of input. DVI-D. Make sure you are delivering signal via DVI-D only. If you're coming out with DP, you'll need to buy a DP-to-DVI-D cable.
3. The monitor has no bells and whistles. IT has an on/off toggle and a brightness adjuster. That's it. No speakers either.
4. The monitor is HEAVY. The bezel around the screen and the profile thickness may not be appealing to some. I don't mind at all, because the display is so stunning, I don't even notice the fat bezel. There are no speakers.
5. The aspect ratio is supposed to be 16:9, but for some unknown reason, the sticker in the top right corner claims it's 16:10. Just ignore.
6. There is some backlight bleed.
7. The monitor is VESA compatible. I don't have it mounted like that, but in case you wanted to.
8. The instructions manual is practically useless, but you really don't need it. There is very slight assembly required when you first open the box. The monitor comes with a short DVI-D (male-male) cable. For my home office, I use a very long&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/BlueRigger-DVI-Male-to-DVI-Male-Digital-Dual-Link-Cable-25-Feet-Black/dp/B009WACR14/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">BlueRigger DVI Male to DVI Male Digital Dual-Link Cable (25 Feet, Black)</a>&nbsp;cable. I'm sure there's a bit of a signal loss, but for my purposes, it is impossible to notice or measure it.
9. As far as I know, this monitor is not Energy Star rated. So you should develop a habit of turning off the display when not in use.
10. Highly recommend that you spend the time and calibrate your display at http://www.lagom.nl/lcd-test/ unless you have a robust calibration software installed. Don't rely on Windows calibration alone.
11. Related - the monitor does not ship with drivers or any screen-splitting software. You won't (most likely) need any drivers and Windows 8.1 native screen split is actually pretty good.
12. Considering that this monitor was manufactured in S. Korea, is shipped from there, and the manual and box are printed in Korean, the "Spartan Warrior" theme is, quite frankly, just weird. I am unable to take it seriously.

In summary, if you do your research, ask the right questions BEFORE you buy, and set your expectations correctly, you will be very happy with this monitor. My use it to read/write emails, spend hours in very large Excel models, and keep an eye on Bloomberg screens. This mammoth display accommodates all that. The Excel use trumps everything else for me. To give you an idea: at 2560*1600 at Excel at 100% zoom, the max cell I can see is AE52. That is a LOT of Excel real estate. My average spreadsheet is 2 or 3 times that size and I think I would've gone nuts using a 1080 display.
I have not noticed any flicker or waver while in use. I have sometimes noticed some flicker when the CPU is being powered down.
If you're a real person, and not a gamer, this might be the right choice for you.

Added bonus: the massive box doubles as a "dog and cat barrier"

Update July 2015
I still love the display qualities of this monitor, and I haven't noticed a single dead pixel.
But...
The power supply died after three months of use. This is a big deal because:
1. There is quite literally NO ONE standing behind this product. I sent an email to the seller (with no real hope), they responded with some nonsensical reply (English translation: Go pound sand!).
2. A replacement power supply costs a minimum of $90. I bought this one&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/UpBright-New-Global-4-Pin-AC-DC-Adapter-For-LOADUS-SQ-15624-SQ-16824-HH10255-11001-HH1025511001-LCD-LED-TV-Power-Supply-Cord-Cable-Charger-Input-100-240-VAC-50-60Hz-Worldwide-Voltage-Use-Mains-PSU/dp/B00DP2VWFC/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">UpBright New Global 4-Pin AC / DC Adapter For LOADUS SQ-15624 SQ-16824 HH10255-11001 HH1025511001 LCD LED TV Power Supply Cord Cable Charger Input: 100 - 240 VAC 50/60Hz Worldwide Voltage Use Mains PSU</a>&nbsp;(which also sucks, read my review).
3. To spend a surcharge of $90 on a $400 monitor makes this a less attractive deal.
