Prices in US are shown before taxes and contrary to popular belief, Europe is taxing made in china. Also, it’s cheaper to transport from shenzen to LA than from Shenzen to Rotterdam.
When I bought G2724D (it was more expensive where I live, $320), it came with 5 dead pixels and the brightness was nowhere near 400 nits. Turns out Dell uses 3 different panels, I got one of the worse ones. Opening the factory menu, I found out the panel brightness limited was to 70% what it can output and increasing it caused the panel run hotter, so I just returned without trying to get a replacement.
The G2724D recommendation really needs to come with a clear warning that you're gambling on getting the right panel, I've seen this happen to quite a few people already. Sure, it can be returned, but it's still annoying.
Did you have any problems with contrast ratio? How did you check the brightness levels? Did you use a tool? Sorry, I'm a bit new to this... I'm looking to buy the G2724D, but don't want to receive a bad unit... Since it's somewhat budget in this range, I was tempted to go for it.

I just ordered an AW2725DF yesterday since it was on sale and nearly €300 off the MSRP. It should be a great upgrade from my old backlit IPS monitor... After using a LG C1 OLED for the past two years, the drop in image quality with non-OLED displays has become too noticeable whenever I play on my PC. The fact that the AW2725DF has a three-year warranty covering burn-in is a great bonus and gives me peace of mind.
@@Wilfer88 That’s awesome to hear! The price held me back from getting one sooner too, but with the sale and the extra discount directly from Dell’s website, it was a no-brainer for me to finally pull the trigger.
sadly i had a bad experience with it, i prefered my asus IPS over the qd oled alienware 360hz. qd oled text fringing was unberable, but im now using the asus woled 480hz and couldbt be happier. id be careful with the alienware quality control as mine came with the most washed out non vibrant and dull colours in any screen id ever seen, no joke lol. luckily ic ould return it
@@Snxgurlet me get this straight you bought a monitor with bad text fringing which you knew it would have and compared it to an ips and you was unhappy? What is your iq if you don’t mind me asking
Doing research for someone that I'm helping build their 1st pc and seeing that AOC monitor definitely made me consider saving some of the budget from the build to invest in that extra image quality you get over the budget monitors. Thanks for the video and research!
I just bought the AOC Q27G3XMN for 346 USD and I should receive it around 4 December. Bought from the Senetic shop, Romania. This is an upgrade for my HANNS-G HH-181 MONITOR that I have for about 14 years. :)) I upgraded all the other parts on my PC in the last years, but not the monitor. 😅
I just got one last month and it is an amazing monitor for the price. I would watch a video on adjusting its settings since it can come with a red tinge to the colors. Also remember to use the Windows HDR calibration tool

I just built my first PC running a 4080 super and went with the MSI G274QPX thanks to your reviews and recommendations. I love it! Was going to pick up the MSI G274QPF-QD to use as a secondary monitor, but might just get a second G274QPX. Thank you so much for all the work you put in because I didn't realize it was so hard picking a monitor until now.
I wish there were more reviews/recommendations for 32" 1440p monitors. I'm aware that their PPI ratio is basically the same as for the 24" 1080p ones but they are a good option for those of us who want the extra screen size while keeping the resolution manageable.
I find that the used market has the best 32" 1440p monitors. I have an Asus 32" 1440p 165 Htz with excellent HDR quality and I picked it up for $199 used late last year.
@@Nevillethethroatgoat i snagged it for 600 euros, which is cheaper than the 240hz monitor he recommended. I've been happy with it and i think its hard to ignore when looking at 240hz+ oled monitors
There is a Japanese channel, Jisaku Hibi, that has an in-depth review on their written website. It's a bit more difficult to get info from formatting differences and need to translate, but it's something.
Thank you for this video. My TV that I've been using has gotten DSE, or some kind of discolouration/splotchy problem, and I've had to quickly learn about panels and refresh rates. Been banging my head against a wall navigating through google reviews and reddit arguments, trying to find what I should replace it with. This video is a life saver.
I have Asus XG27AQDMG and I really like it. Very smooth experience with beautiful colours and text clarity isn't bad at all. First I wanted to buy QD-OLED but when I saw what ambient light does to the black colours, I canceled my order and got Asus instead. Very good monitor and I recommend it
It really depends on your room conditions though. I had a 32" Gigabyte 4K QD-OLED and a 32" LG 4K W-OLED here. I didn't notice anything bad due to the QD-OLED coating. What I did notice was the sharper image (most W-OLED are matte except the one you got which unfortunately on the other hand doesn't use the newest W-OLED subpixel layout like the 480HZ ASUS for example) and in HDR it wasn't even a competition. Right now I preordered the ASUS XG27ACDNG which is the 360HZ QD-OLED version of what you got, albeit with a better configuration (90W USB-C and KVM switch).
4 real … im an old man gamer and needing a larger monitor without having to put my face 6 inches from the monitor to see sharp. I hate wearing my reading glasses while gaming gives me a headache 😂 anyways yes please 🙏 32 inch reviews needed
For 34” OLED. AW34DWF is king bro. Perfect levels of everything including warranty. MSI has a really good 34inch screen with good burn in and is cheap. Samsung is most premium build but honestly too expensive and warranty is shaky.
Torn between these 3: Asus XG27ACS LG 27GP850 Gigabyte M27Q They all have the same price in my area. Which do you think is the best buy given the same price? Thank you.
@@battlekingad8291 for my eyesight 1440p works fine on 32". I know because I already have a Gigabyte M32Q. I just want a second one with similar or better specs. Going 4K is the backup option, with a few disadvantages: 1. Higher price (if you go OLED even higher). 2. Higher strain on the GPU/lower FPS (I have an AMD GPU).
Thanks for doing these reviews, not many people do monitors justice like you. Its because of people like you that put so much effort into monitor reviews that people like me can make an informed purchase.
@@Gazer75no, it's a monitor market problem. Graphics cards cpus Mainboards etc have way better prices in EU compared to monitors We are talking about us price + sales tax in us = eu price(including tax) in EU But for monitors it's like 20-30% on top for no discernable reason
Thank you so much for making these best monitor videos! Usually, best "..." videos on RUclips have a bad structure or loose too much important information, but your best monitors videos are super great to narrow down your options to 2 or 3 to then watch the detailed reviews for more information. I'm still rocking a HP X27q that I got a great deal on, but I'm excited to switch to oled as soon as they hit like 400€ in hopefully just a few more years :D
I agree, although they are desperately lacking when you search the market. Manufacturers appear to be ignoring them except for OLED and business-focused IPS models with terrible gaming chops.
I am fairly sure he's saving those for the best ultrawide gaming monitors video? since he mentioned that all of these recommendation videos are going to be updated in the coming weeks.
I would like to ask about this monitor, msi mag274qrf qd e2, where would you like to place it. And also is it worth choosing the gigabyte m32u over the non oled monitors for better value though it is just 144hz but 4k.
it's an alternative to all the ones they just reviewed: the Asus, Dell, etc. I own it and it's great but shame to see they never bothered to review it.
Bought the AOC AG276QZD last week for £448 on Amazon with monthly no interest payments so £90 a month for 5 months. I've tried much more expensive and "better" monitors such as the Samsung Neo G8, Neo G7 & Alienware AW3423DWF but they just didn't fully satisfy me, especially at their price point. I've been using the Gigabyte AD27QD 1440p 144hz monitor since it came out and I absolutely love it, it's an incredible monitor. But this AOC OLED is finally the monitor I'm upgrading to and won't be sending back! I love it!
I've been researching gaming monitors for a while now, and the best bang for the buck I've found is the Gigabyte AORUS FO27Q3. 27-inch, 1440p, QD-OLED, 360Hz, 0.03 ms, KVM, 24-inch/1080p switch, USB-C Power Delivery, and speakers!
The Gigabyte AORUS FO27Q3 is Currently the best 1440p monitor. In Germany, the best price is currently 669,- €. I'll wait a few more days to get a better price, then I'll buy it.
I bought Asus ROG Strix XG27ACS last week and the upgrade from my old 1080p Benq 144Hz VA panel is amazing. Great colors out of the box, no ICC profile needed. All I did was toning down brightness and that is it. I wish it was available in 24" because 27" is a bit too big for me but I will get used to it (or buy bigger desk to sit little bit further away from it).
I have heard some people being annoyed that xg27acs has a harsh matte coating and colors/especially whites look oily. Is it noticeable on yours? Do you personally find it annoying?
@@ataberkacar-triloxyy1284 I recently got the xg27acs and I had to return it because of the horrible coating. When I watching videos I couldn't help but notice it, especially in whites and it just horrid. I would give it a pass.
@@ataberkacar-triloxyy1284 I am sure the coating might be harsh for someone coming from gaming on TV or laptop with glossy screen but it is not harsher than coating on any screen I had in past or currently have... I would say it has nothing on my LG screen at work but it is hard to compare if they are not side by side. As for colors, they are better than on my previous high refresh screen. Both white and black. I like my screen on relatively low brightness (40 on my new Asus) so white is never really true white for me and hence I don't care. Black though is far darker though which is surprising for IPS. it is not OLED or microled obviously but again.... compared to screens I had previously I have nothing to complain about.
@@ataberkacar-triloxyy1284ive just returned mine yesterday because of the coating. I also thought some commenters were exaggerating and overly sensitive, but i could not unsee the smearing/grain within 1 week of use. Ive had the asus next to a cheaper, but similar Odyssey G52A - night and day difference coatingwise ...
@@ataberkacar-triloxyy1284 I have one too and yes, it definitely looks oily. My other monitor is a Asus PG279Q and it looks less oily. However, it doesn't bother me that much because I don't pay attention to it when I'm working. Besides that have dark mode activated on my pc and my laptop.
Thanks for the update! These videos are always extremely helpful. Ive always wondered why more brightness is seen as such a great thing when having too much brightness can be bad for your eyes long term which is something you dont speak about. I tend to have my monitors at below 50% brightness, and sometimes even as low as 10% as otherwise my eyes hurt.
I bought one and returned it because of a firmware bug. I really really really liked it. But switching between color spaces and enabling auto HDR in the OSD caused the screen to turn yellow-brown-reddish. This was on 1.0.0.6 firmware. It's incredibly bright in HDR with local dimming on and the colors are very accurate apart from a bit too much red. If mine didn't have the bug I would have happily kept it.
Burn in on OLED still scares me. I do a lot of productivity work on the side and I don't want a monitor that I have to replace within 2 years because there's a ghost taskbar at the bottom of it. Mini LED also just isn't there yet with dimming zone resolution, blooming makes general computer use look silly (mouse bloom over dark backgrounds).
@thedeleted1337 this channel is litterally doing a burn in test on his monitor. After 3 months, there was burn in. After 6, it got worse. It is 100% still an issue. I work from home 9-10 hours a day of productivity. Im staying FAR away from oled. As long as it will be an issue, I wont buy it.
@Eddie2Dynamite and they put the monitor in far less than ideal conditions aka the wrong way to use it. OLED monitors are around 600-1200 USD and should last 4 to 6 years. 1200÷4=$300 per year of use. You people really need to stop thinking that high performance pc hardware is supposed to last a decade plus
@thedeleted1337 i dont at all. I do a full pc refresh AT LEAST once every 3 years. I should have an expectation of my monitor not showing wear and tear after 6 months. Be an olled appologist if you want, but the current state of OLED is not something im going to sink 1000+ into because I use it like a normal PC monitor. Your being riddiculous.
@@Eddie2Dynamite Using an OLED aas a normal PC monitor is like daily driving a lambo. You don't. You're uneducated on the topic and have no clue what youre saying lol, it is NOT showing wear and tear after 6 months.
I got AOC - Q27G4X here in the EU and couldn't be happier. It's cheaper than MSI QD and less toxic colours. The only thing that I don't like is a flimsy stand, but you can always mount it in a different way.
Any Chance to see a review here for the Xiaomi G Pro 27i? Tech Specs look promising and here in Germany Price is only around 350 Euro. Same Price for the AOC Q27G3XMN in Germany.
great video, seems like there are alot of options, so I was wondering which in my case is the best? I play alot of shooters but also enjoy some MMO's. I do some video editing (nothing too serious) but still worth mentioning. the AOC G3 Q27G3XMN is 300 euro / MSI Optix MAG274QRF-QD 360 euro / ASUS ROG Swift XG27AQV 420 euro / ASUS ROG Strix XG27ACS 260 euro / GIGABYTE M27Q X 27 is 270 euro
ordered the Dell G2724D for 380 aud with free shipping from amazon a few days ago after watching one of your other videos. first time owning a monitor above 1080p 60hz, should be a blast
Not very good miniled featured monitor. Dimming algorithm is bad, glow is very (very) noticeable. You'll have to turn it on and off every time you switch from gaming/content to regular browsing or other use with static background.
@@akcy22 Have you used it? I checked one at a local shop, didn't really experience any of those problems! Except having to switch between SDR and HDR part, that was a bit annoying. Haven't bought it yet though, waiting for a review from these guys or RTings.
@lancer9063 Yes, used. Cool in games, but as you start moving mouse or windows in the Windows - you start seeing areolae around cursor and brighter objects on the screen. Even on the most subtle fald setting
@@lancer9063 yeah. Some miniled monitors have better algorithms and with the same number of zones behave better thus not forcing you to switch it on and off, but it is better to check them personally
What about 32" plus in this realm? I haven't used a 27" since I carried my brother and two sister on my back to school in 40" of snow up hill both ways. Great video for 27
12:00 I’m honestly baffled by the fact OLED is being recommended as an all-round best option for high refresh gaming without mentioning the caveat of flickering induced by unstable framerates with VRR enabled (which is how most games are nowadays). This flaw is inherent to how the OLED technology works and needs to be spoken about more.
@vivekgarge5576 I'm running a curved 32" 1440p va panel @144hz. Detail is fine especially in well lit scenarios, the only thing that bugs me about it is the offensive black levels and light bleed.
Looking forward to your 4K guide. I want to buy an 32inch for my PS5 Pro! Would be awesome if you can release a video soon (before the end of November sales on amazon and co are starting)
I just got a MSI MAG 321UP and I love it, it was an upgrade to my LG 32GN600-B. 165Hz is more than enough for my gaming needs, and 4K is a much appreciated bump over 1440p.
Hope to see a review of the ASUS XG27ACDNG from you soon. For a newer gen 360HZ QD-OLED it has some interesting extras like USB-C with 90w PD and a KVM switch.
Bought an XG27ACS and it had annoying coil whine from the built in power supply. Returned it. I do not recommend it. The new version of the 274QRF-QD with an "E2" appended is what I'm using now. Much better monitor.
Beautiful video mate, it really does help me make that final decision. I just have one more question before I go pay the premium of buying the PG27AQDP and that is because it's a little small compared to my 28 inch right now, I'm eyeing the PG34WCDM right now as well. Are there any obvious disadvantages to that monitor compared to the PG27AQDP ?
Insane timing, was just struggling to find which 1440p to buy. Would also love to see xiaomi g pro 27i compared to these monitors, as it also is in the same price range but offers mini led
Swapped my HP X27q 27 inch IPS 165hz 1440p to a Xiaomi Mini LED G Pro 27i 180hz 1440p 1000 nits HDR for $320 in my country. The local dimming is a massive upgrade 😂 The IPS bleed on my old HP is annoying sometimes. I have a short vid of their side by side on my account here. Hope you give that xiaomi a look if it is available there in Australia.
I recently picked up a Samsung Odyssey OLED G6 for the equivalent of about $515 USD (~$770 AUD) and am very impressed by the motion clarity and HDR performance of a QD-OLED PC monitor at 360 Hz. The text fringing issues are definitely annoying, and I won't be using it as my main monitor for productivity which poses some interesting challenges in what will have to be a triple monitor WFH setup alongside two Dell S2721DGF monitors, but for gaming it's an absolute beast and so far I have no regrets.

@@kozekistudiowait till black friday, the 240hz 271qpx was as cheap as $529 last week and It’ll probably go back to that price during Black Friday. I had it for a couple weeks before I returned it to buy a TV to replace my broken one. Great monitor that comes well calibrated, has good brightness for an oled, and the colors are stunning, the only bad thing is the OSD and even then its not crazy slow, worked fine for me. If you dont need a KVM switch or 360hz, make sure to get the MAG 271QPX-E2 and not the QRX bc its cheaper while having the same panel
I just ordered an AW2725DF yesterday since it was on sale and nearly €300 off the MSRP. It should be a great upgrade from my old backlit IPS monitor...
After using a LG C1 OLED for the past two years, the drop in image quality with non-OLED displays has become too noticeable whenever I play on my PC.
The fact that the AW2725DF has a three-year warranty covering burn-in is a great bonus and gives me peace of mind.
Been using that one for four months, great pick! Its only con is the price, but the specs are sublime.
@@Wilfer88 That’s awesome to hear! The price held me back from getting one sooner too, but with the sale and the extra discount directly from Dell’s website, it was a no-brainer for me to finally pull the trigger.
sadly i had a bad experience with it, i prefered my asus IPS over the qd oled alienware 360hz. qd oled text fringing was unberable, but im now using the asus woled 480hz and couldbt be happier. id be careful with the alienware quality control as mine came with the most washed out non vibrant and dull colours in any screen id ever seen, no joke lol. luckily ic ould return it
@@Snxgurlet me get this straight you bought a monitor with bad text fringing which you knew it would have and compared it to an ips and you was unhappy? What is your iq if you don’t mind me asking

Doing research for someone that I'm helping build their 1st pc and seeing that AOC monitor definitely made me consider saving some of the budget from the build to invest in that extra image quality you get over the budget monitors. Thanks for the video and research!
I just bought the AOC Q27G3XMN for 346 USD and I should receive it around 4 December. Bought from the Senetic shop, Romania. This is an upgrade for my HANNS-G HH-181 MONITOR that I have for about 14 years. :))
I upgraded all the other parts on my PC in the last years, but not the monitor. 😅
I just got one last month and it is an amazing monitor for the price. I would watch a video on adjusting its settings since it can come with a red tinge to the colors. Also remember to use the Windows HDR calibration tool

I just built my first PC running a 4080 super and went with the MSI G274QPX thanks to your reviews and recommendations. I love it!

I wish there were more reviews/recommendations for 32" 1440p monitors. I'm aware that their PPI ratio is basically the same as for the 24" 1080p ones but they are a good option for those of us who want the extra screen size while keeping the resolution manageable.

There is a Japanese channel, Jisaku Hibi, that has an in-depth review on their written website.
It's a bit more difficult to get info from formatting differences and need to translate, but it's something.
Thank you for this video. My TV that I've been using has gotten DSE, or some kind of discolouration/splotchy problem, and I've had to quickly learn about panels and refresh rates.
Been banging my head against a wall navigating through google reviews and reddit arguments, trying to find what I should replace it with. This video is a life saver.
I have Asus XG27AQDMG and I really like it. Very smooth experience with beautiful colours and text clarity isn't bad at all.
First I wanted to buy QD-OLED but when I saw what ambient light does to the black colours, I canceled my order and got Asus instead.
Very good monitor and I recommend it
It really depends on your room conditions though. I had a 32" Gigabyte 4K QD-OLED and a 32" LG 4K W-OLED here. I didn't notice anything bad due to the QD-OLED coating. What I did notice was the sharper image (most W-OLED are matte except the one you got which unfortunately on the other hand doesn't use the newest W-OLED subpixel layout like the 480HZ ASUS for example) and in HDR it wasn't even a competition. Right now I preordered the ASUS XG27ACDNG which is the 360HZ QD-OLED version of what you got, albeit with a better configuration (90W USB-C and KVM switch).
Nice roundup - good coverage of price ranges and best fit for the main gamer needs.
Please do the 32/34 inch 1440p version! 😁
That would be great!
4 real … im an old man gamer and needing a larger monitor without having to put my face 6 inches from the monitor to see sharp. I hate wearing my reading glasses while gaming gives me a headache 😂 anyways yes please 🙏 32 inch reviews needed

For 34” OLED. AW34DWF is king bro. Perfect levels of everything including warranty. MSI has a really good 34inch screen with good burn in and is cheap. Samsung is most premium build but honestly too expensive and warranty is shaky.

Going 4K is the backup option, with a few disadvantages:
1. Higher price (if you go OLED even higher).
2. Higher strain on the GPU/lower FPS (I have an AMD GPU).
Thanks for doing these reviews, not many people do monitors justice like you. Its because of people like you that put so much effort into monitor reviews that people like me can make an informed purchase.

Perfect timing for me as I am researching 1440p monitors for a friend :)
Why no 1440p-tall ultrawides though? It is disappointing not to see those mentioned.
I agree, although they are desperately lacking when you search the market. Manufacturers appear to be ignoring them except for OLED and business-focused IPS models with terrible gaming chops.
I am fairly sure he's saving those for the best ultrawide gaming monitors video? since he mentioned that all of these recommendation videos are going to be updated in the coming weeks.

Thanks for the video tho, cheers.
I would like to ask about this monitor, msi mag274qrf qd e2, where would you like to place it.
And also is it worth choosing the gigabyte m32u over the non oled monitors for better value though it is just 144hz but 4k.
it's an alternative to all the ones they just reviewed: the Asus, Dell, etc. I own it and it's great but shame to see they never bothered to review it.

Bought the AOC AG276QZD last week for £448 on Amazon with monthly no interest payments so £90 a month for 5 months. I've tried much more expensive and "better" monitors such as the Samsung Neo G8, Neo G7 & Alienware AW3423DWF but they just didn't fully satisfy me, especially at their price point. I've been using the Gigabyte AD27QD 1440p 144hz monitor since it came out and I absolutely love it, it's an incredible monitor. But this AOC OLED is finally the monitor I'm upgrading to and won't be sending back! I love it!
I've been researching gaming monitors for a while now, and the best bang for the buck I've found is the Gigabyte AORUS FO27Q3. 27-inch, 1440p, QD-OLED, 360Hz, 0.03 ms, KVM, 24-inch/1080p switch, USB-C Power Delivery, and speakers!
971 usd in India 🥲
The Gigabyte AORUS FO27Q3 is Currently the best 1440p monitor. In Germany, the best price is currently 669,- €. I'll wait a few more days to get a better price, then I'll buy it.
I've got one and it is sooooo good
If you're content with 240 Hz and a lack of RGB the FO27Q2 is an even better bang for the buck. In everything else it's literally the same.

I bought Asus ROG Strix XG27ACS last week and the upgrade from my old 1080p Benq 144Hz VA panel is amazing. Great colors out of the box, no ICC profile needed. All I did was toning down brightness and that is it. I wish it was available in 24" because 27" is a bit too big for me but I will get used to it (or buy bigger desk to sit little bit further away from it).
I have heard some people being annoyed that xg27acs has a harsh matte coating and colors/especially whites look oily. Is it noticeable on yours? Do you personally find it annoying?
@@ataberkacar-triloxyy1284 I recently got the xg27acs and I had to return it because of the horrible coating. When I watching videos I couldn't help but notice it, especially in whites and it just horrid. I would give it a pass.
@@ataberkacar-triloxyy1284 I am sure the coating might be harsh for someone coming from gaming on TV or laptop with glossy screen but it is not harsher than coating on any screen I had in past or currently have... I would say it has nothing on my LG screen at work but it is hard to compare if they are not side by side. As for colors, they are better than on my previous high refresh screen. Both white and black. I like my screen on relatively low brightness (40 on my new Asus) so white is never really true white for me and hence I don't care. Black though is far darker though which is surprising for IPS. it is not OLED or microled obviously but again.... compared to screens I had previously I have nothing to complain about.
@@ataberkacar-triloxyy1284ive just returned mine yesterday because of the coating. I also thought some commenters were exaggerating and overly sensitive, but i could not unsee the smearing/grain within 1 week of use. Ive had the asus next to a cheaper, but similar Odyssey G52A - night and day difference coatingwise ...
@@ataberkacar-triloxyy1284 I have one too and yes, it definitely looks oily. My other monitor is a Asus PG279Q and it looks less oily. However, it doesn't bother me that much because I don't pay attention to it when I'm working. Besides that have dark mode activated on my pc and my laptop.
Thanks for the update! These videos are always extremely helpful. Ive always wondered why more brightness is seen as such a great thing when having too much brightness can be bad for your eyes long term which is something you dont speak about. I tend to have my monitors at below 50% brightness, and sometimes even as low as 10% as otherwise my eyes hurt.

I bought one and returned it because of a firmware bug. I really really really liked it. But switching between color spaces and enabling auto HDR in the OSD caused the screen to turn yellow-brown-reddish. This was on 1.0.0.6 firmware. It's incredibly bright in HDR with local dimming on and the colors are very accurate apart from a bit too much red. If mine didn't have the bug I would have happily kept it.
This is an incredible consumer resource. Thank you for all your effort!

Burn in on OLED still scares me. I do a lot of productivity work on the side and I don't want a monitor that I have to replace within 2 years because there's a ghost taskbar at the bottom of it. Mini LED also just isn't there yet with dimming zone resolution, blooming makes general computer use look silly (mouse bloom over dark backgrounds).
get off of reddit burn in is not common.
@thedeleted1337 this channel is litterally doing a burn in test on his monitor. After 3 months, there was burn in. After 6, it got worse. It is 100% still an issue. I work from home 9-10 hours a day of productivity. Im staying FAR away from oled. As long as it will be an issue, I wont buy it.
@Eddie2Dynamite and they put the monitor in far less than ideal conditions aka the wrong way to use it. OLED monitors are around 600-1200 USD and should last 4 to 6 years. 1200÷4=$300 per year of use. You people really need to stop thinking that high performance pc hardware is supposed to last a decade plus
@thedeleted1337 i dont at all. I do a full pc refresh AT LEAST once every 3 years. I should have an expectation of my monitor not showing wear and tear after 6 months. Be an olled appologist if you want, but the current state of OLED is not something im going to sink 1000+ into because I use it like a normal PC monitor. Your being riddiculous.
@@Eddie2Dynamite Using an OLED aas a normal PC monitor is like daily driving a lambo. You don't. You're uneducated on the topic and have no clue what youre saying lol, it is NOT showing wear and tear after 6 months.

12:00 I’m honestly baffled by the fact OLED is being recommended as an all-round best option for high refresh gaming without mentioning the caveat of flickering induced by unstable framerates with VRR enabled (which is how most games are nowadays). This flaw is inherent to how the OLED technology works and needs to be spoken about more.

Pixel density at that size not great.

Are there any obvious disadvantages to that monitor compared to the PG27AQDP ?

Swapped my HP X27q 27 inch IPS 165hz 1440p to a Xiaomi Mini LED G Pro 27i 180hz 1440p 1000 nits HDR for $320 in my country. The local dimming is a massive upgrade 😂 The IPS bleed on my old HP is annoying sometimes. I have a short vid of their side by side on my account here. Hope you give that xiaomi a look if it is available there in Australia.
I was recently browsing monitors and saw a 200Hz 1440p IPS LG one for just over 200€. Insane deal
I recently picked up a Samsung Odyssey OLED G6 for the equivalent of about $515 USD (~$770 AUD) and am very impressed by the motion clarity and HDR performance of a QD-OLED PC monitor at 360 Hz. The text fringing issues are definitely annoying, and I won't be using it as my main monitor for productivity which poses some interesting challenges in what will have to be a triple monitor WFH setup alongside two Dell S2721DGF monitors, but for gaming it's an absolute beast and so far I have no regrets.
