Thank you exactly what I wanted to know from an average consumer standpoint. Ordered one and I am very excited. You got that like and sub.
Hi do u happen to use it for programming or any kind of work, how has the experience been so far? I m deciding between this and a prims+X340 Pro 34'' 100HZ the price different is like 50 USD... (Prism cheaper)
@ola9679 hey I work with my mac, so far loving the wide view it provides
i can put my Coding Window and test it out in another window. basically you can have two windows side by side and it almost feels like you have two monitors.
But since I use HDMI it only provides 100Hz, probably using DP to TypeC cable can achieve 144Hz but I have not tested it yet.
@@hemzigaming that's nice, what if u work with 3 windows/apps open on the monitor, and one window will for example have a api Postman tutorial video with smaller text on it, will that small window still be clear to see?
@@ola9679 I think you should be able to manage that, I sometimes divide the screen in 4 quadrants using windows and i am still able to read without much difficulties. So, it should be fine if you are not sitting more than 60-80cm far away.
Excuse me, have you been using it every since? Are you satisfied with it? And more importantly... are you experiencing the same flickering issue, that can be seen here from 2:53? Thanks a lot in advance!
What a legend short and informative video.
Wish it was IPS, regretted it later after realizing the difference between VA and IPS.
Yes, even with its lower contrast ratio and backlight bleeding, it's superior for gaming
Great no bullshit review. Thanks
Got this monitor last year during black friday for 300 euros , still happy with it after 1 year decent budget curved monitor. i didnt experience any flickering at all.
Thank you, I've been searching for a short and rich video since I've laid my eyes on this monitor. One thing: if I plug it in with an HDMI cable, will it be better or worse than a display port?
your FPS will be capped at 100fps instead of 144 and rest will be same
Thank You Hemzi :) Great Vid!
Can you Please suggest where can I get the power adapter replacement for this monitor?
Please do the ufo test
I've been using it for more than 20 months now. But due to unknown reasons a chequered flickering can be seen on the display at 144 hz. This happened in Last August 2023 too. Don't know if this is due to humid climate conditions. I thought my graphic card (Gigabyte GTX 1660 ti) is at fault & was gonna change it. Glad i found that the problem is with the monitor. I tried all the possible fixes, updating to the latest display driver, reinstalled windows. changed the cables too. But no luck. For now its working ok on 100 hz... Please do let know if any one has faced the same problem and have found a fix for the same. TIA ❤
yeah i never face it with HDMI from mac
could be a monitor issue or the Display Port
Hey I'm thinking of buying this monitor too, what do you think about the colors? are they good? and is the image quality decreases when you get far from the monitor while the monitor is still pointed at your eyes. Thanks for the amazing video by the way, there is not much video about this monitor.
colors are good but not best (compared to IPS panel)
but you will get used to it in 1-2 days and won't even remember the difference.
image quality does not decrease with IPS or VA (this monitor)
it is an issue with TN panels
if you liked this video, do subscribe to our channel :)
@@hemzigaming Thanks! I already subscribed when I first watched the video :D. My own laptop monitor has 45% ntsc color but ips and the colors are not really great, so probably it will make a difference when I get this monitor because it's 120% srgb. But I'm not sure 😂.
it is definitely better, I don't see much difference in MacBook and this monitor when placed side-by-side
@@hemzigaming Wow that's really good thanks for the help. I hope you get more views.
wow nice vid!!! is there any other problems i sould be worried bout? cause i am planning to buy this monitor.
no bro, it works fine except that issue
@@hemzigaming ok:) thx.
UFO test is necessary. record it in slow motion and talk briefly about it.
Thank you for your review. Because the new Review the are That many informationat Confuse me. So I can die Sidenow. Because of you thank you very much.
Hey what you did for flickering issue?
I haven't seen it in a while, probably it is not that frequent anymore. But when it does happen, I just restart the monitor.
no way....that's never a small issue...the flickering. i went for the mobiuz 27" curved monitor. 2.1 audio, dedicated remote
good for you, for me it's not that big of an issue. it is temporary and goes away once i restart the monitor
takes only 2-3secs.
happens only once a day
Loved this video! You went straight to the things I was wondering about, and the unboxing video was a great plus!!
Thank you so much :)
hello I am French I would like to know how you connected your LED to the image displayed on the screen ?
Hey, I used Arduino Nano to power the LEDs and then I use Prismatik software to show the color which is on the screen.
@@hemzigaming ok thank you I understand better so it won't be possible on ps5 do you know of another alternative?
yes, there are some expensive options which utilise HDMI output or camera to check what is being shown on the monitor or TV. You can search for ambient light options for PS4, you can get something for your case.
I need a icc profile for this monitor or information about delta e
do u still have flickering or do u did something about that issue.? if yes then tell because i am planning to buy this monitor.
it is still there, i just restart the monitor and it goes away. Might be a defective piece or defective DisplayPort coz I don't observe this on HDMI.
Hi, I have this monitor.
Is it normal that the picture is a little dark? What settings are you using
maybe your contrast is too much
mine are set as brightness 10, Contrast 20
Hi, great review! I was wondering if the monitor will be able to play 144hz if i get a dp to hdmi (i want to connect it to my laptop, and i dont have dp)
i guess HDMI cable has bandwidth limitation, you won't be able to get 144Hz on 1440p, you will have to reduce resolution to 1080p to get 144Hz
@@hemzigaming thanks
U need hdmi 2.1 for 144hz
wow!! so beautifull, so elegant just looking like a cow!!!
hi can it get 144 hz in hdmi port ? or only dp ?
only DP
@@hemzigaming are you sure ?
yes I have tested it and it is mentioned on the Official Product Specification Page
@@hemzigaming thanks bro
Good review … not sure what to think about that flickering
Hey I was wondering I have a ps5 and I don’t know if it will have blank spaces on the sides or it will use the entire screen
Great question dude!
I am assuming game developers would've thought about it. I don't have PS4 so I can't check this. But if you have any games on which you can check if there is an option to change the resolution in the game settings, then I am hoping that blank sides won't show up.
When you use this monitor, does the screen flicker or black out for about 3 seconds?
yes it does, i switch it off and then turn it on and it fixes the problem.
Can we split the screens
If you mean using it to power from 2 different sources, then yes. It supports PBP and PIP
whats your custom rgb behind your monitor?
I built it myself using Arduino nano and stuff
hi bro. how are the blacks? and performance in high-end gaming?
blacks are really great but compared to my IPS panel, colors are not that great when you place them side-by-side. If you look at this monitor individually, colors are not that bad :)
@@hemzigaming your ips panel? Which one?
this monitor has VA panel but i have another monitor which i showed in the video that has IPS panel
@@hemzigaming can i know it company and model name plz?
@x6abhix6 sure it's in the description as well
Acer Nitro VG271U 27" amzn.to/45z5Wox
Bought it for 28k in the GIF Sale 🥰
congratulations
@@hemzigaming Thanks but I'm thinking of going for LG 34GP63A 😅
What do you recommend?
@@RahulSharma0A friend of mine bought LG, he didn't report any issues yet. Both the monitors are of similar stats you can go for any.
@@hemzigaming Sure, thanks cause I'm getting that for 25,250
do post a review video :)
maybe i can buy it someday as a secondary monitor 🥹
Hey im thinking about get this monitor but im not sure if it has gosthing i love FPS and i donno if the gosthing its very visible
I have played CS2 on IPS panel and on this monitor, i can comfortably say i haven't noticed any difference.
@@hemzigaming Thanks for the help!!!!!
Is this any difference from PRO MP341CQW in display panel?
this has better refresh rate
🤩
Does it support hdr sir? Btw great review ❤
I have not come across any monitor in this range which "supports HDR" surely they market these monitors as HDR supported but when you turn it on, it looks worse.
Can i know if is it right pannle will dead after 1 year of use i hear many ppl talking about that is that true pls guys help me i want to buy new one with 180HZ
I'm not sure i understand your query, it's been almost a year now and I don't face any issues yet except the one i mentioned in the video
How would i get audio from my ps5? Do i have to use the dp ir the hdmi?
Hey, I guess you might've to buy a separate speaker/headphones if the PS5 have an audio output jack
Does it have split features??
yes it does
is IPS or VA?
it is VA
how is the ghosting?
if you do the UFO test, then it is noticeable but when I play CS2 I don't even notice.
ufo please
How is the internal speaker
it doesn't have speakers
@@hemzigamingthanks for response
