Can you post a picture of what you are seeing? This is only for the OSD? Is this a new unit that has been this way since your purchase or a new issue that started sometime later?

Hi there, yes this is a new unit, its as if the screen is curving inwards like a ball, after some googling some claim this is an illusion, but I am not so sure, I have been using a curved monitor for years but that curved outwards and this one is not curved, could my brain be creating the illusion? lol I have attached a photo....

I thought you were referring to the monitor's built-in menus, but you mean just anything on the screen? Well, easy enough to check. Just grab a known straight edge like a ruler or even a sheet of paper and hold it up to the monitor. If the edge meets all the way across then you know it's straight/flat.
