I just bought the LG 27GR95QE, a 27 inch OLED monitor, 3 weeks ago. I can tell you, without exaggerating, that it was the BEST decision EVER! I was able to buy it directly from LG for €559 and it was delivered extremely quickly. Perfectly and safely packaged. When I started my PC or PS5 for the first time, I couldn't believe my eyes, the picture was so incredibly good. On 27 inches, 1440p is more than enough!

@@SpawnPoiint regardless of interest you should def compare the two. Most important comparison bw the two would be picture vibrancy and purple blacks of the qd oleds vs antl reflective screens on the woled. Would def love a side by side comparison keeping these factors in mind.
I have a LG 27inch 4K 60hz monitor, it has solid built in speakers & a USB C port. But it’s like ever since then they just stopped including speakers & usb c so I’ve never upgraded
What would you need USB C for? The only USB C device I own is my phone and I definitely don't have any reason to connect it to a monitor. Also it came with a USB A to USB C cable so I can just plug it in pretty much any regular PC. Because every PC has USB A but not every PC has USB C.
One of the first monitors you can actually grow into, as you're able to upgrade your PC hardware, plus have a console ready monitor. With space saving speaker technology. Plan on giving the wife my Alienware QD-Ultrawide and picking this up.
i have this Monitor for my PS5 Pro and holy smokes... the image quality, the picture quality, the graphics, the sharpness, the colors and absolutely everything is incredible. i cannot say this enough. This monitor is an absolute beast, i mainly care about the image quality and picture 4K that's why i got it plus OLED my gosh the Blacks on this thing is amazingly dark inky i love it!!! I'm Coming from Sony inzone M9 4K ips 27" monitor and it was an awesome monitor but this right here is different Game Changer, also the "matte coating on the display is not grainy at all or very mattey, its more like matte and glossy put together in one, it really is nice to look at and the most amazing part of all of this, it went on sale for $400 off so i paid $999.99 plus tax instead of retail price of $1399.99 plus tax, i got it at Best Buy

This back imo looks much better than previous gen backs. Looks good with somewhat even thickness throughout the monitor. The last gen one's had a fat control box and slim af sides. My 27AQDM feels like it will snap if I touch it too hard.
As someone who plays on both PS5 and Xbox series X i can really appreciate you going over the performance for both. I have no desire to switch to PC so these reviews are very helpful
@@SpawnPoiint definitely agree. Used to play on a 65 LG but then switched to a 32 inch BenQ monitor. I enjoy playing on the monitor more. I’ve now upgraded to the asus pg32ucdm as your review of that seemed like it was exactly what I was looking for. I couldn’t be happier. Any game looks insane on that thing. Thanks again.
@@PattyCakeJake not far maybe 5 feet or so. I have the pretty much the exact same set up as the video here with the magnus monitor arm. I just have the regular magnus desk with L extension not the pro.
I think main selling point or unique feature 32GS95UE model has is Pixel sound (which was not covered thoroughly in this clip) What is your impression towards pixel sound, what kind of effects or feature you like about this pixel sound? How the pixel sound can differentiate itself from other monitors?
@@tougeruzbay yeah I have a 7900xt, and even then I still struggle to run at my max monitor specs (Alienware AW3423DWF) which is an ultrawide 1440p 165hz OLED. This monitor in question would be out of question for me also but with frame generation maybe the 4K 120hz OLEDs could work.
@@XXlegovidXxI specifically bought a new PC, 4080 super, ryzen 7 7800x3D, to utilize this monitor. I think it depends on the games you play, im a fps gamer, such as Valorant, overwatch, apex. I think this will be great for my use case since I also do video editing, photoshop, and often watching videos/movies.
one thing nobody in their review ever mentioned: this is the ONLY 4K 32" OLED monitor that has hardware calibration. thats a huge benefit for anyone who plans to calibrate it and use for professional work. really surprised why it never gets mentioned, such a killer feature that you usually only find in high end monitors aimed for creatives.
I've mostly used Apple computers/laptops with bright and high DPI monitors. Most of the MacBook monitors are in the 450 to 550 nit range in SDR. Aren't you finding the 260 nit full screen brightness to dim for productivity work and web browsing?
Great review! I enjoy both competitive and single player games so this monitor is very intriguing to me. Definitely would use the 480 Hz mode for OW and Valorant. My one question though is glossy versus matte; is it really that big of a difference or are people over exaggerating?
I preordered the monitor from the LG website in the Netherlands. It will be shipped after May 9th, but as a fresh LG member + preorder deal I got a nice 10% discount on the price. Normally it's being sold for €1399 here but in the end I got it for €1260 which I think is a solid deal. Looking forward using this to replace my current 60hz 32" 4k LG monitor. For productivity it's also interesting to mention the benefit of the high refresh rate in UX/UI design and software development. I do a lot of animation and motion graphics work and now creating animations for 120hz+ and able to preview these is really creating for the future. Also when writing code (and using a well IDE/editor optimised for performance like Lapce) it's really nice that when scrolling you can keep reading the text, without that typical smearing you get on 60hz. Same with moving windows around, they all stay crispy and it really feels like they physically stick to your mouse movement. All in all, what a time to be alive to have access to a monitor with these kind of specifications for a reasonable price! Can't wait!!!
I got a LG 4K IPS monitor off one of your reviews, and the only thing I don't love about it is the black levels with it being an IPS panel, but now that they're finally making 4K OLEDs it's hard not to pull the trigger 😂.
You are almost at a MILLION subscribers 🎉So nice to see having joined at 33k subscribers. Keep this up mate!! And thanks for the carpet bit in the last video. Any store you can recommend? 😊
Love, love, LOVE the back of that thing. However, $1,4000 starting price for an OLED that is, in may respects, inferior to its cheaper QD-OLED cousins, is just too much. The dual mode 480hz mode is going to be an extremely small niche, I'm afraid. Most competitive gamers that want or need that kind of refresh rate are not going to be buying a 32 inch OLED in the first place, they'll opt for a 360hz 27 inch. I don't want to nitpick them here because I still enjoy LG OLEDs (my TV is one) and I want to see them succeed but if they continue to show up months after their competition and at a higher price point without blowout features that scream "Buy me!" they're going to have a problem.
the whole reason of those 24" and 27" modes is to fill that need for competitive gamers who prefer smaller sizes. 480hz oled response time is the best thing possible atm, only thing that could be on par is the 540hz TN with strobing, but it has so many tradeoffs that I think many people who have the bucks to spend and are heavy into competitive shooter will highly consider an option like this. especially with the huge benefit of using a 32" 4K panel for anything else outside of the game.
I had a Samsung G8 Neo Odyssey last year (also 4K 240Hz) which also has a very matte display.. I have to say I didn't hate it at all, I think I'd actually prefer matte over a display that mirrors you all the time lol... Bonus on this LG screen is that the black levels stay good even with a well-lit room, unlike QD-OLED...
I cannot stress enough how beautiful this monitor is!! THE INTERNAL SPEAKERS SOUND ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. They get very VERY LOUD. With deep sounding bass. I’m playing Elden ring on this monitor right now and I can’t believe it. I bought an open box at Best Buy for $929 USD. Do not hesitate to buy this monitor. You will not be disappointed.
@@Boostavo in Europe thats less of an option Most of the time you dont get such plans with “new” new phones But if you wait half a year then yes its also like that
I watch a couple of reviews of this monitor already and in every one of them it looked so grainy, while I seen QD-OLED reviews and they look so clear and transparent. Even in compressed RUclips videos you can tell the difference which really shows how bad the coating is.
it will look just as good as any other regular monitor that is not glossy, so basically like over 95% of the overall monitor market. you probably use a matte monitor at the moment or did in the past, doubt you ever complained about it being "grainy".
Great monitor. Not so great warranty. Also confirmed with LG they don't stock replacement panels so you could be waiting weeks/months to receive a repaired/replaced panel.
Why don't they make it glossy? Why do they insist on matte? Why do they reduce the contrast, sharpness and depth of colors? This monitor is aimed at players who play in home rooms whose lighting they control easily. It is not a working environment. When will my dream of a Glossy monitor come true?
For those who are interested in maximizing immersion, this is unfortunately too small for a High FoV Gaming setup. At an 18" view distance the horizontal Display FoV is only ~75°. A view distance of less than 10.5" would be necessary in order to get the same 106° horizontal Display FoV of a 55" 16:9 screen at an 18" view distance, or a 65" at a ~21.5" view distance.
Couple of questions: 1) What's the max refresh rate when you connect it to the Macbook Pro? 2) Can you connect it via USB-C? 3) Can you charge it if yes to 2) Thanks!
32-in flat panel was never a common size for a living room TV. That was the common size that people were putting in their bedrooms when TVs used to cost a whole lot more.
Great review. I’m still using my 48 C1 as a gaming monitor. I’m glad LG went with a 32” monitor but the lack of USB-C isn’t great. Plus the price is a bit much.
Which is better? This one, or that new ASUS 32" you reviewed a while ago? I much prefer this stand compared to the ASUS one, as it is less gamery. I'm curious about which panel is better.
Great Video - Gaming OLED! Great things IMO: 1) 4K 2) HDR10 3) OLED not QLED 4) HDMI 2.1 5) FreeSync PremiumPro 6) MLA+ 7) VRR 8) G-SYNC 9) 120 Hz 10) Vesa 100 mount Few things that are missing IMO: 1) Want Display Port 2.1 full UHBR20 not 1.4 2) Wish it had the KVM switch most monitors have built in this year. 3) Prefer the new WRGB config instead of WOLED 4) Choice of glossy over anti-glare matte screen. 5) Dolby Vision would be nice 6) Longer warranty for screen burn as most offer at least 3yrs and better for dead pixel count which should be 0 IMO. 7) USB C 8) Remote Unsure: Do I prefer all this in 27" instead of 32"
Great review man! Just a couple of questions for ya: A) Does the matte finish hurt image quality at all in a dark room, or cause any graininess compared to QD-OLED? and B) With the pixel cleaning feature, does this run when the monitor is in sleep mode and does it require you to physically turn the monitor on via the power button after it has run? Or does it just wake up with mouse movement and continue to do it's thing. Thanks in advance!
One day, can you make a video of what you use for editing software and what you use to make videos and stuff? It would be perfect for the channel and could possibly help a lot of viewers too!
This has everything we have ever asked for in a monitor. I'd love to see them release it in a 27inch with the 4k 240 instead of the 1440p but it's still an awesome monitor
This is clearly for people with a big budget. I mean you need a +1k graphic cards to get decent frames in 4k with modern triple a titles. In a couple of years once the technology is more affordable , I might realistically look into it.
Completely unrelated question: In all seriousness, hiw do you manage such cleanliness in that room? Everything looks well spaced out, minimalistic, and just so overall presentable
Great review. I like my big TV's to be matt because I cannot move a little to avoid a glare. For a monitor, it's much easier to avoid a glare, so I like it matt. Sadly mostly it's the other way around.
Anyone else think the 480hz option is useless ? When you have a 4K monitor I’m not sure I’d ever want to drop down to 1080P even for the higher refresh rate. 240hz at 4K works really well.

@@ddssn6418 A burn-in warranty protects your screen if parts of an image get stuck on it from being shown too much.
Who does? That's the risk you have to take with oled
Oh wow
2 years came in my box
Any idea on the cost for this in the uk.. great vid as always mate 😎👍
with a price tag of 1400 dollars, almost no one can afford that.
Facts more than half of the population making 20k - 35k a year and that’s not factoring in bills and children yet.
Yet most people run arround with a samsung or iphone of 1000-1500€/$

Most of the time you dont get such plans with “new” new phones
But if you wait half a year then yes its also like that
Save money duhhhh
Bit of a deal-breaker with no USB-C. Would have liked an OLED gaming monitor that could double-up for work in the day.
I watch a couple of reviews of this monitor already and in every one of them it looked so grainy, while I seen QD-OLED reviews and they look so clear and transparent. Even in compressed RUclips videos you can tell the difference which really shows how bad the coating is.
it will look just as good as any other regular monitor that is not glossy, so basically like over 95% of the overall monitor market. you probably use a matte monitor at the moment or did in the past, doubt you ever complained about it being "grainy".
Just grabbed it today for a stunning £979, what a steal
type c is must in monitors in 2024
Great monitor. Not so great warranty. Also confirmed with LG they don't stock replacement panels so you could be waiting weeks/months to receive a repaired/replaced panel.
Have heard that their warranty doesn't cover burn in 😢
Get a pc my guy
It's coming...
For hackers and terrible pc ports take years to fix 😭
How about u stop telling others what to play on
You probably play on a 1080

NICE GAMING OLED !!
Why don't they make it glossy?
Why do they insist on matte?
Why do they reduce the contrast, sharpness and depth of colors?
This monitor is aimed at players who play in home rooms whose lighting they control easily. It is not a working environment.
When will my dream of a Glossy monitor come true?
Nice. Perfect monitor for me. 💪🏽 Thx for the review!
For those who are interested in maximizing immersion, this is unfortunately too small for a High FoV Gaming setup. At an 18" view distance the horizontal Display FoV is only ~75°.
A view distance of less than 10.5" would be necessary in order to get the same 106° horizontal Display FoV of a 55" 16:9 screen at an 18" view distance, or a 65" at a ~21.5" view distance.
Can you still use a remote with the monitor even though it doesn’t come with it?
Couple of questions:
1) What's the max refresh rate when you connect it to the Macbook Pro?
2) Can you connect it via USB-C?
3) Can you charge it if yes to 2)
Thanks!

Love the specs of this monitor, but do you reckon its overkill for the ps5/xbox considering its price as well?
COME HERE
Way overkill. This is for high end pc
32-in flat panel was never a common size for a living room TV. That was the common size that people were putting in their bedrooms when TVs used to cost a whole lot more.
Love your videos man, what’s the best way to clean your gaming monitors and or oled TVs ?
Have you done any further testing on the anti glare coating? It's the only thing that has me hesitant to buy this monitor
Great Review…Thank you! Question…can you hear any fan noise? I bought the 27GR95qe last year. The fan noise is terrible.
So far (20 hours of use) I’ve not heard a fan at all.
Great review. I’m still using my 48 C1 as a gaming monitor. I’m glad LG went with a 32” monitor but the lack of USB-C isn’t great. Plus the price is a bit much.
COME HERE
Next time I'd love to see what the monitor looks like in CS2, Valorant, Fortnite.. The typical FPS games. Otherwise great video.
Which is better? This one, or that new ASUS 32" you reviewed a while ago? I much prefer this stand compared to the ASUS one, as it is less gamery. I'm curious about which panel is better.
Great video bro, just received mine but are you on Gamer 1, 2, or vivid
Cant wait to get my hands on this monitor but might have to wait for it to get discounted in a year 😅
I’ve been waiting for this type of monitor for years.
What about OLED burn in warranty?
Picking mine up today. Been eying this baby all year long. Lol
Great review, I really want this monitor. What kind of headset do you have on your table? I would really like to know. Thank you.
looks like the astro A50X to me, hope this helps!!
@@opossumbilities Thank you! I looked up the astro A50X, and it sure does look like it. Cheers!
Great Video - Gaming OLED!
Great things IMO:
1) 4K
2) HDR10
3) OLED not QLED
4) HDMI 2.1
5) FreeSync PremiumPro
6) MLA+
7) VRR
8) G-SYNC
9) 120 Hz
10) Vesa 100 mount
Few things that are missing IMO:
1) Want Display Port 2.1 full UHBR20 not 1.4
2) Wish it had the KVM switch most monitors have built in this year.
3) Prefer the new WRGB config instead of WOLED
4) Choice of glossy over anti-glare matte screen.
5) Dolby Vision would be nice
6) Longer warranty for screen burn as most offer at least 3yrs and better for dead pixel count which should be 0 IMO.
7) USB C
8) Remote
Unsure:
Do I prefer all this in 27" instead of 32"
Thank you for all this incredible information on the playstation and their products. I really cannot rely on anyone else for it
Great review man! Just a couple of questions for ya: A) Does the matte finish hurt image quality at all in a dark room, or cause any graininess compared to QD-OLED? and B) With the pixel cleaning feature, does this run when the monitor is in sleep mode and does it require you to physically turn the monitor on via the power button after it has run? Or does it just wake up with mouse movement and continue to do it's thing. Thanks in advance!
Loving this monitor I got it a few days ago
@TheGOATRammus
can u let me know if the brightness settings LOCK when you turn HDR on? Or can the brightness still be adjusted with HDR on?
One day, can you make a video of what you use for editing software and what you use to make videos and stuff? It would be perfect for the channel and could possibly help a lot of viewers too!
What is your screensaver?! It's so good!
Cool monitor and review! If only I could get a display with these specs in curved 40"+ size.
This has everything we have ever asked for in a monitor. I'd love to see them release it in a 27inch with the 4k 240 instead of the 1440p but it's still an awesome monitor
Not really no glossy screen
COME HERE
Only thing you need bro is better headphones and speakers. Good sound is more immersive than good display when i experienced it.
Yes of course. I'm using the Astro A50 X so headphones are used 99% of the time.
This is clearly for people with a big budget. I mean you need a +1k graphic cards to get decent frames in 4k with modern triple a titles. In a couple of years once the technology is more affordable , I might realistically look into it.
Completely unrelated question: In all seriousness, hiw do you manage such cleanliness in that room? Everything looks well spaced out, minimalistic, and just so overall presentable
Ah thank you. I just try to keep the clutter minimal 😅
imprting mine from usa to my country really hope its not broken
Anyone concerned about the matte finish its not a issue I switched to this from a 42 inch lg c3 . Black levels and picture quality is perfect
Do you prefer this monitor over the rog monitor you just reviewed for the ps5
Great review. I like my big TV's to be matt because I cannot move a little to avoid a glare. For a monitor, it's much easier to avoid a glare, so I like it matt. Sadly mostly it's the other way around.
Thanks for watching

Isn’t no burn in issue? That’s my greatest fair when it comes to this whole OLED productions
Every gameroom& bedroom need one!😊
That's a bummer this doesn't include a remote. Are there any remotes that would work with this monitor that you can buy separately?
Anyone else think the 480hz option is useless ? When you have a 4K monitor I’m not sure I’d ever want to drop down to 1080P even for the higher refresh rate. 240hz at 4K works really well.
