    What do you look for in monitors? What is your ABSOLUTE most important feature besides price? With that said, what is the most you are willing to pay for a monitor?
    Also, thank you for the call out on my inaccurate claim that 1440p OLEDs are new, that's an important piece of information that I got wrong as I have only been keeping tabs on 4K panels, with that said, I'll have to start paying better attention!

      Not willing to pay more than $600 for a monitor as new tech comes out too frequently in recent years prompting pretty promising upgrades to quality and responsiveness. I look for pixel response, sharpness, and color accuracy.

    This panel tech is a year old at this point there are 360hz oleds out now for a lower price than this. This product seems to have missed the mark massively and it's disappointing that you are promoting it instead of pointing out how bad of a value it is, I was kind of expecting this to be a cheaper option based on your initial enthusiasm but it's actually just a terrible product all around, if it was $400-500 then it would be worth talking about but it's $900 and MSI has a 360hz for $750 msrp, and the LG version of this with the same panel is going for $730.

    Looking forward for the rest of 2024 and early 2025, 2023's 1440p/240hz OLED spec got a price drop and we're seeing more 360hz/4k options moving forward, along with newer QDOLED/WOLED panels.

    I am using 2 24" panels, but also have used 2 27" at the office. The 2 27" setup was ideal for work where I had to rely upon high definition of multiple data sources, and plenty of copying and transfer done manually. I believe this set up would also be great for coding where one monitor is mainly the dev side monitor and the other is testing the app, and maintaining your Git repository

Funny how you present it like it's something new or not so widely available. LG has actually released an even newer refresh of it already and has a 480Hz model on the way. Also, 360Hz QD-OLEDs are out.

    To clarify something:
    Input lag or latency on a TV is not good unless using certain modes or settings including auto low latency modes.
    This is not related to pixel response time. Every OLED has a sub 1ms response time which is what is being advertised as a 0.2ms response time while some companies market nanosecond response times for OLEDs. This is not latency. There will still be processing resulting in probably around 8-16 ms click to photon latency. This is the same for all digital displays, while a very low pixel response timer reduces motion blur and improves motion clarity.

    This monitor is ACTUALLY only 190 nits typical brightness (Max 100% windows size brightness)...and PEAK 450 nits (for a very small window size box for the 450 nit peak brightness)....just to ensure that info gets out there. Also, it does have only 1 OLED care feature that is not listed in any documentation...and only confirmed by Viewsonic itself via email ... it is: "As far as OLED saving features, the XG272-2K-OLED does have a pixel maintenance function that activates when the monitor is powered down that runs for 10 minutes, after which it will shut off completely."
    Viewsonic also confirmed that it also has the following: "The monitor will also have an auto dimming function that activates after detecting a set period of inactivity (5-10 minutes) to preserve the panel. Once activity is detected, the monitor will resume at full brightness. " Hope this helps!

    Viewsonic could have stood out from the crowd with their OLED gaming monitor and shipped it with their amazing PureXP strobing tech, which is one of the few Blur Busters approved motion clarity methods so far, BFI is great though, but not on par with PureXP, such a missed op as PureXP is what makes Viewsonic displays special, this is just a very sub-par PPI OLED display with software driven BFI (so not even hardware accelerated BFI).

    Hey Jay! I just got the Odyssey G7 neo 43 inch TV/monitor. I got it for $600 on sale and I was wondering if you would consider this a good monitor for gaming. I have bad eyesight so having a large screen is important to me, but I’ve been reading a lot of bad reviews about this monitor. Maybe you could do a video on it? Or even your input through reply would be much appreciated! Keep up the good work on the channel!

    I am sure (I have not looked), but I would bet a lot of people must have mentioned the KTC 27 Inch OLED Gaming Monitor, QHD 2560 x 1440, 240Hz, 0.03ms, Type-C 65W, KVM, Built-in Speakers, G-SYNC & FreeSync, HDMI2.0, DisplayPort1.4, USB-C 3.0, G27P6. I purchased this monitor in Nov 20, 2023 for exactly $599.99. It is also a great monitor (though there is a bit newer version). While I know you are showing a different version (and I guess they are all different), it is good to see there may be lower price models for those of us that are retired but still love to game. Thanks so much for you shows!!!!!

      KTC is definietly something i would recommend people on budget look at, i don't know about oled but a friend got a 27" mini led with that hdr 10+ sticker and it's a very good monitor and it's cost was really laughable for what it offers.

    • @groverlclark
      @groverlclark Месяц назад

      @@Adrian-is6qn You should really look into KTC. They are the original manufacturer for may brands of monitors. That is why the low cost. They have cut out a middleman. Their service may not be as good since they are usually selling to other businesses (B2B). But who does have good service anymore. I spent a couple hours the night I bought my monitor just doing research on KTC. It was really impressive.
      You can expect less bells and whistles, but you can certainly expect a quality piece of equipment.

    For Linux users, the vertical space could be used with a compositor which groups windows together; the music player could still be on top, but the windows being grouped together enables a compositor's parent for the few applications which would benefit from a vertical display, without needing to manage the window from your window list panel component.
    For viewers of Action Retro, _yes_ the way Haiku's BeOS-inspired title bar works would also be stellar.

    a 27" in portrait mode works well as a secondary monitor when using a 40-42" 4K OLED tv as a monitor. The height is about the same and so is the pixel density.

    I'd really like 32 inches for my 1440p resolution. I know the pixels are a bit on the larger side at that point, but it's a good compromise between refresh rate and resolution. And going down in monitor size is not something I'd like to do now.

    I have a Samsung g4 odyssey. It’s a 27 inch 1080p FHD monitor. 1ms response time and 240hertz refresh rate . With adaptive refresh and g-sync the screen is buttery smooth and fast. And more then serves the purpose I needed it for. It’s an HDR panel but its color accuracy isn’t that great. But good enough for me!

    I edit video on a 32 inch 1440p monitor and at just over arms length I don't see any lines or individual pixels. Since they are gonna read the comments, I only paid $135 for my LG monitor and it has 165hz refresh and is much better edged to edge and no big bar at the bottom, other than than the same size plastic they have on that one. It has and LED ring on the back just like that one. I have had this monitor for 2 years now, and yes it has HDR, but I think with it on it's to bright.

  • @RedChi

    I agree with Jay, the screen should be at least closer to edge. I also think they should lose the speakers, I don't get it why it's on a monitor any way since most people will either have a headset or just a seperate speakers any way. Although 27 inch is nice, I personally would prefer a 32 inch too.

    BFI is great for gaming and you should use it. It's a display mode that removes lcd motionblur entirely which boost clarity and feeling of smoothness. You literally save money by using it, because you'll enjoy 60fps again instead of 60 feeling "odd" and too blurry without BFI. It makes 120FPS looks like 300FPS+, with no cost in input lag. This is one of the single greatest monitors I've seen just because of this, everything else is trash, only LG's oled tv can compare to this and this is the very first time I'm seeing better bfi features than the LG TVs, on a oled monitor. The only issue here is the oled tech, and wondering how Viewsonic handle burn in, compensation cycles and other tech to mitigate burn-in. Frankly, I don't trust oled monitors yet in that aspect at all, I have my C1 for gaming myself but it's exclusively used for gaming, still burned technically, so a desktop monitor that's on all the time will burn in fast in the lower grey color ranges (up to you if you consider that real burn in since it's hardly visible in real content). But I'd still buy this over any other monitor in the market right now especially if what I've heard about the BFI finetune option this offers are true.

    1440p 27" is the perfect panel for me.

Assuming the price comes down over time and burn in can be proven to not be an issue then a 1440p 27" OLED would be my #1 choice for my next monitor.
