well how does he claim to have the knowledge that's the worst 4k monitor when he hasn't even used it for himself ? did you ask him for the source ? go back to that post and ask him the very same question.

As far as I know it's just a standard cheap(ish) 4k TN Panel display? 

If it's all working for you and you're enjoying it then I guess it's fine? 

 

Maybe they thought it was bad because it's a TN Panel? And not an IPS/VA? So there may be some colour shift, and the colours may not be as accurate as they could be. But if that isn't affecting you then it's nothing to worry about.
