Damn dude, I clicked on this video and then noticed it was 19 minutes long and almost backed out. Then started watching and watched the entire thing. GREAT video and deserves more views. Good Job!
Thanks for your review of this monitor. I got mine yesterday for $400 and its wonderful. Even the sound is really decent for a monitor. However, the menu is not very good as it has been pointed out.
got it for 420US on prime day, still holding up well size is massive way more immersive than my samsung curve 34 inch ultrawide that is now my above second monitor, i recommend putting it on contextual mode for most brightness then open nvidia control panel and reduce the saturation to abt 35%
I purchased mine at the beginning of last week. It was amazing timing because INNOCN was offering a 25% discount on the purchase. Which means it was 449 instead of 600. I bought it for my new research analyst role so I haven't really used it for gaming yet. I obviously loaded cyberpunk and Lost Ark, but didn't spend time checking settings and it did fine. I have a 3 days weekend coming up so I am going to try to put it through it's paces. I 10/10 do not regret buying it.
@@hendrikvanbrantegem7526 There is 0 regret buying this panel. The only thing they really need to fix is the menu system. It's super confusing, even after getting use to it. I am not a professional reviewer but it does just fine for games that I've played. Hope that helps
@@Okele573 I tested LG 38GN950, samsung g9 and the Innocn. well the innocn staying, the others I have sent back, the price difference is just too much. Bought it for 460 euro. lg was double, g9 even more. This is really a value monitor. really happy with it :)
@@hendrikvanbrantegem7526 as I said I have 0 regrets buying this monitor. The usability to cost ratio is just too good. I will say I'm glad we got this now as opposed to when people really start buying it as prices are not going to stay there.
Good monitor, i use it for sim racing, and it does not disappoint. I plan to add two 32" for a triple set up. So, if you are watching this video and see this comment, buy this monitor.
I have this monitor...overall very happy. I wanted something bigger for my sim racing setup. I have it on a monitor arm from amazon which works perfectly(North Bayou 30lbs version). it was about 50 bucks and i can extend it all the way straight forward and it holds fine and sturdy. colors are very vibrant on it. the ghosting on it is on the bad side tho but overall its not horrible. for its size its great especially for the price. I feel its more of a productivity monitor rather than a gaming monitor but for gaming its good because its size. For its price...you can't beat it...really cant.
I just bought one in mid 2024 and the tilt on mine holds its position just fine. I can tilt all of the way up and it stays there well. Perhaps they improved it after seeing this review.
Did you try cranking the contrast up to 100? I would guess that boosts the brightness, with both brightness and contrast at 100 you should get the maximum brightness possible. It will probably not look great, but it will be bright. Sounds like switching on MOVIE then cranking those would be the thing to try. The ADS panels are usually made by BOE and they frequently have a pretty big drawback compared to IPS, the viewing angles. I dont know about this particular panel but when I tried the BOE ADS 32inch 1440p 165hz panel it had some pretty crap viewing angles. Specifically vertical viewing angles were terrible by IPS standards, had some major washing out when you looked above or below center. Looked more like a old school VA panel than IPS. I have seen others note the same issue with other BOE panels too. Its not a huge deal breaker on a ultrawide as I assume you would be looking at it from a proper sitting position, but might be something to note.
he screen does have odd viewing angles for an so called IPS...but like you said sitting right in front its not so bad. just keep it atleast 18" away or more from eyes if you can for best view. atleast in my opinion.
Thanks man - think I'm ordering this today - Lord willing - still trying to decide between this and a couple of 34" curved. Cheers! Update: Arriving tomorrow praise the LORD!! Looking forward to firing this up.
I'm accustomed to gaming in a dark room, on a 32" 1440p LG that's VA. Would the lower contrast of the IPS be an issue? I am a fan of the black levels of the VA. If you think it would be a noticeable loss in black levels, that would be the deal breaker for me.
@@PREDATEURLT I understand. Thank you. I believe you are absolutely right. I did decide to hold off. I'll probably end up with OLED, Mini LED, or VA with a good FALD.
@@TheCgOrion I got mine in yesterday, and it may be going back because of this. Went from 27" 144hx 1440 Dell VA panel to this. I'm having a hard time finding settings I like. I was playing RDR2 and got it looking OK - but dark areas were too dark and washed out. Then the settings like looked best in game was absolutely unusable for web browsing/casual use. Worst of all when you're tinkering your OSD settings don't carry over. I only got an hour with it and I love the immersion so I'm definitely going to give it more of a go before I decide to send it back, but I think you may have made the right decision.
@@Leedy818 Thank you for letting me know, and I'm sorry you're in the current position. I'm a tinkerer to find ideal settings, but not being able to find settings that work across the board, would drive me crazy.
I just got the Philips 40" ultrawide, I guess it uses the same panel. First impression is it's too wide and I'm not using much more of the screen that I would have on my old 30" Dell, but I haven't gamed on it yet and I guess I'll get used to it.
I am interested in the Philips 40" as this INNOCN isn't available in the UK, but cant seem to find any info on the Philips, how are you getting on with it? Gamed yet?
@@pinkerton05 Well, I can't compare it to anything other than my old 30" 60FPS Dell, and compared to that it's pretty awesome. The width is great for gaming, seems very smooth to me, brightness and contrast is way better than the Dell, but again, not a lot for me to compare it to. Freesync is working with my RTX2070 which is nice and something I was a little concerned about. The Ultrawide was great when watching the Spanish GP with Multiviewer this weekend :)
That was the JP-only model of this same screen. They claimed HDR 600 on it, but in their own marketing they said it was 350cd/m2 only... m.media-amazon.com/images/S/aplus-media-library-service-media/d765a5da-bfb4-4606-87d2-138874125ef1.__CR0,0,300,300_PT0_SX300_V1___.jpg
@@James.Markham757Va odd flicker not a free sync issue like the va panels get. This was an odd one when a bright light like a sun cast was on screen it had an odd flicker. Also had a few dead pixels. I returned it but didn't have an exchange option and it went up 200 in price.
@@ToGrimmToWin dang, sorry to hear you had issues. ive had mine for about a week now and no issues as of yet. really liking the display. just can't figure out how to get my MacBook to wake the monitor after its been in sleep mode for an extended period of time.

I really miss the above 60hz though .
Hey bro so I received mine two days ago, I can’t get my ps5 to work on it, it keeps saying no signal. I don’t know if i should return it or there is something i can do to get my ps5 to work, btw there is an Amazon review with a picture of a ps4 UI so i guess consoles should work right?
I don’t believe the PS5 supports an ultrawide 21:9 aspect ratio. That being said, it should still be displaying, maybe trying manually selecting the port.
Hey man not sure if you still have the monitor but you need to set your Ps5 to 1440. If you have it stuck in 4k it won't show. Either put it resolution in Auto or fix it at 1440
Nice review. I am thinking to buy one. My biggest concern is customer support from INNOCN. I wrote an e-mail asking about the warranty and here is their reply: Hi Mr./Ms., We will report your question to our colleagues, but since it is the national holiday(Oct.1~7th) they cannot handle it in time. We will email you ASAP When they respond to me. Have a great week! Imagine if the message was about a problem with my monitor!!!

$399 on a "lightning" deal or some such thing - price was time-limited and it's back up to $539 today.
yup, got it yesterday.
It was up today. I was able to snag one
Today at $399 how could anyone pass up on the deal .
Back to $399

“500 nits” but HDR-400 basically means it’s not really 500 nits. Either way 355 or whatever you measured is good enough

Thanks for the review, good video 👍I think I'll get one for my trading, not gaming. 😊
Thx this saved me the hassle of going to test this lol nice!!
Hows this monitor holding up for people? Amzon has this for $370 in 2023.
Thanks man - think I'm ordering this today - Lord willing - still trying to decide between this and a couple of 34" curved. Cheers!
Update: Arriving tomorrow praise the LORD!! Looking forward to firing this up.
You said you used it for work as well? How did the text in things like word, excel, etc. look?
Dissapointed by the resolution. Should be 4k at this vertical height.
There's plenty of 5k/2k options at this size, but they currently run you about $1,200 and up, and most are capped at 75hz, even at that price.
How’s this holding up for everyone? Still worth $400?
One of the Best monitors that I have ever owned. Definitely Worth it
This monitor look so good !! I want this
Hi, can i check is this monitor be vesa mounted on a monitor arm? thanks!
