      I like minimalistic designs and stay away from all the gamer stuff. Especially since all of it is plastic and thus, inevitably, looks cheap. Some plastics can look pretty good, true, but I'd really like aluminium more. Simple shapes endure, too. Like designs from Apple, starting from early 2010s. They do not look like they're from early 2010s, they still look good even now. Gamer stuff? That will eventually grow outdated, just like all-glass cases already have.

      @@thedofflin Honestly the issue for me is that the refresh rates are just too high. Barely any game is going to push 240 frames at 4k even with a 4090, and having tried the 540Hz PG248QP at my friends house, I couldn't tell the difference between it and my 360Hz monitor..
      Hopefully LG or someone releases a middle ground 120Hz 4k & 360Hz 1080p, not being able to utilize the full refresh rate on a monitor would just be too frustrating for me and considering the hardware to run at those frames won't be out for another year at least, it just seems like a novelty feature that you can point your finger at saying that you've got it.

Built in color calibration is really nice, using my i1 display pro makes this monitor very accurate just make sure you go into advanced settings and use the max number of patches. Matte display is NOT an issue on this monitor people saying so don’t own it and aren’t using it next to a glossy screen. The pixel layout is so much better for text, it’s really a relief to not have color fringing around text! All around love this monitor, I think it’s the best for my needs and I would 100% buy it again!

    Those OLED monitors are becoming more and more attractive.
    The only issues for me would be:
    - For WOLED monitors: No glossy finish or similar like gorilla glass, colors are less vibrant than QD-OLED.
    - For QD-OLED monitors: Magenta tint when there is light in front of the monitor, text clarity isn't as good as WOLED with a 1440p resolution.
    - For both technologies: We still need better brightness especially for 10% and 100% windows but we are slowly getting there.

    The only benefit of this model vs. current Q/W Oleds are 480hz refresh rate at 1080p on a 32 inch monitor. To me, this just doesnt make any sense
    1. Size 32inch way to big for esports regardless of putting it way back.
    2. 480 hz benefit is really nice but UFO (or his version) image he shows looks identical to 360hz 1440p OLEDs and not better
    3. You can’t get the 480hz benefit (as he shows) in cropped modes (27 or 24 inch) at 1080 to make the picture smaller on panel. So useless function. Likely input lag will also increase.
    4. Most people moved to 1440p vs 1080p so going back-at least for me personally- is not an option
    So I am not sure this differentiation is any value to anyone who is looking for a high refresh rate esport functionality.

      If you mostly use it in SDR mode during desktop use I think you'll be fine for many years. This monitor tops out at 1300nits during HDR I think, so in comparison the ~260 nits max in SDR means the heat dissipation and individual pixels aren't pushed even near their limit and thus have a huge headroom before any burn-in might happen.

    • @TheCabIe
      @TheCabIe 8 месяцев назад +5

      No monitor will last 5 years without some sort of degradation at those type of hours, especiallly not OLED. Personally the only reason I'd go OLED would be because of good burn-in warranty because otherwise their long-term price may easily be 2x, if not more, their initial price because burn-in is a "when" not "if".
      Like, the new gen OLEDs are in ~1k$ price range and that sounds great compared to higher end IPSs, but if you can't get a guaranteed burn-in coverage and may have to get a new one after potentially 2 years, it would mean their ACTUAL price is 2k$ compared to 1k$ LCD that would last you 4 years. If you have the money OLED is almost strictly superior to LCDs, but you really have to take the burn-in calculation into account for your budget.

Though its usage comes in bursts, like when a new game comes out. Dragon dogma 2 is easily gonna get me to use it. :D

      @@TheCabIe Yes I've even seen IPS panels get yellowing and bad uniformity after extremely heavy use (not by myself though lol). The argument could also be made that while these OLEDs potentially have a shorter lifespan, you're guaranteed to have superior image quality for all the time before that.
      It's quite interesting when you think about it, people are so afraid of the slim potential of OLED burn-in that they're buying IPS monitors that already have 'degraded' visual quality to start with (darkness glow, backlight bleed, uniformity issues etc). Instead of buying an OLED that literally has perfect image quality with the potential risk of issues after many years. An OLED with a tiny bit of burn-in will still have better image quality during gaming than any IPS, if the burn-in is limited to the edges where the UI is.

Plus, i never expect to go over 300fps in tripple A titles (which i played) the max i can get from my pc is 200fps on fhd. So 240fps vs 360hz means not too much as a deal breaker. So does 1440p vs 4k. But as an owner of 360hz fhd aw2521h, i'm guarantees you that sooner or later you will find out that resolution will be quickly out date by gpu generation and upgrade path. I'm not a fan of huge monitor either vs my pc is quite in a stage of bottleneck (not that bad but have no plan to upgrade it for couple of years) so yeah...i will spend a bit more for 4k 240hz.

    Awesome video! How does the monitor do in real-world brightness testing compared to the 32" QD-OLEDs? We know it can do brighter white but less saturated colors, so how does that pan out in real-world scenarios?

    Finally, how well does it preserve blacks in various lighting conditions (again compared to QD-OLED)?

    When you talk about colour fringing on text, it seems like there is some misunderstanding of why that might occur. At 5:08 it's a bit dissonant that your narration says that there is no fringing visible when the photo at the same time clearly shows fringing. But anyway, you might be making fringing worse just by having incorrect subpixel rendering set up for this monitor's subpixel layout -- the default Windows cleartype settings are definitely just assuming a three uniform RGB subpixels (and, beside the point, need to be tuned to every specific monitor to not look worse than just greyscale AA...). I think a much better showcase of how much fringing there is would be to compare two bits of text with *greyscale* anti-aliasing, which will probably look better anyway on a display with such dense pixels, rather than subpixel rendering that's possibly fighting against the subpixel layout.
    Since this new monitor actually has a white/grey subpixel, the ideal subpixel rendering for black-on-white (or vice versa) text, is probably quite close to greyscale anti-aliasing with a relatively small adjustment of the other subpixels.

To reach 480 fps it's got to be an untaxing Esport game, and high end PCs can hit 480 fps at 1440p as well as 1080p.
    I understand that 4k panel, the pixels are so small that 4 of them fit perfectly into a designated spot for 1080p Pixel. But I got a high end pc because 1440p and 4k look so much better than 1080p, so I don't want to play at 1080p, especially at 32 inches.
