I bought this monitor the other week after hearing things like this but I couldn't get over two things:

1) It doesn't power off or on automatically. I need the remote 2) The viewing angle made seeing the corners difficult on my admittedly shallower then probably needed desk with no scaling, (40" seemed like the sweet spot for PPI without scaling).

How do you cope with (1)? I'm amazed that Intel, Nvidia and AMD haven't thrown a HDMI-CEC IP code into their GPUs and made it trivially to turn on and off displays over HDMI.

I just leave the remote on my desk and turn the eco auto-off to 8hrs so it doesn't turn off in the middle of my day. The TV controls the on/off of my receiver via CEC.
