The review I made on this monitor goes over the black levels! The blacks are very good on this monitor. You may see a slight white film on camera but that's not there in person. Check out the video I just dropped about HDR improving and you can see the difference with blacks
@king69104 yeah no problem. I have a video how to update it too. Honestly, the Nvidia Control panel color settings will really make this thing look amazing. Check out some of my other videos 🤝
I managed to get one on Amazon but it won't get it for a month or less, which sucks but I'm paying the normal price. I literally just finished paying off my samsung odyssey neo g7 and it's a good monitor, it's my first 32" monitor and it's curved. It was easy to get used to coming from a 27" monitor. I've seen many reviews and I'm hyped. Now about the brightness, anyone who watches movies, TV and games, knows not to have the screen face the windows because of the light reflection. I know for a fact that I mostly likely won't have a problem with that. I game in the dark and I don't have rgbs. I'll be using it on my Xbox series X. I really want to try that feature that makes your screen 27".this monitor is definitely a pay to play. And I feel it's going to be a solid monitor for years.
@@juanmoreno3316 well I just bought the asus pg32ucdm but I haven't received it yet. I don't use speakers because the current monitor I use doesn't have speaker support. But this asus pg32ucdm has support for speaker. But I would probably get the 2.1 klipsch speakers and sub
either 27" or 32" is the sweet spot. if your desk is shallow I recommend 27". If your desk is deeper I suggest 32". I recommend 27" if you're at 1440p and 32" at 4k. I bought 2 of these to upgrade away from the LG ultragear series.
At the moment I’m using a 27in 4k and debating getting this as I mainly don’t wanna wait until Probs feb for the 27 inch PG27UCDM to come out, but I’m just worried that 32 maybe to big? My desk isn’t super deep, only comparison I have is it’s the same depth as a Lian O11 RGB case 😂 I’m just not sure as I also play comp games a lot
For a minute a thought it was just me, I used hdr, messed with the settings and every single time, I thought sdr looked way better, colors and brightness, unless I haven't find the right settings but I doubt it, I have the UCDP right now, is the one in talking about, I'm getting UCDM today, need to see which one I'll be keeping
hey, I saw you have that too asus rog swift oled pg32ucdm, gaming-monitor How did you do the update? The tool doesn't even start for me. I only have the mouse + t on it and it doesn't work
Looking at this and the ultragear 1 but they are both so expensive..PG32UCDM looks like the top 1 monitor right now. The one that comes kinda close? LG 32GS95UE OLED 4K 240/480 Hz (seems like they messed up the glossing on it *with a bad grainy coating+bad HDR brightness..)
@KenzieNakamura yeah I definitely do enjoy the glossy finish but everyone has different opinions. Go with what you can afford, in the end there is minimal differences. 🤝
Get the Alienware 3255qf. I’ve tried both this one and the lg and it by far beats both of them. They pre calibrate each monitor so the colors are super accurate and it’s 1000 nits.
@Brytech1216 I've seen the alienware next to this monitor and the colors definitely looked better on this one but everyone has their own opinion. I didn't like the curve honestly. Thanks for stopping by!
Good Pros/Cons. Have you used the DWF or seen it in person to compare? I love mine, but 4k Ultrawide would've made it perfect. Not sure about going back to 21:9 for this monitor though.
Want to love these 240Hz OLEDS but the VRR flicker is 100% a deal breaker..Good review. It is a fantastic monitor, as well as the Alienware 32" curved one..just that dang VRR flicker with OLED sucks.

@@LANDONINAPC MCM105 firmware (latest). Wide Gamut, Console HDR with Dynamic Brightness boost ON.. also be sure to do the Windows HDR calibration as well! Loving this monitor so far!
You forgot that this Asus monitor needs a power brick and it plugs on the right side of the monitor. MSI does not have the brick and plugs directly on the left side of the monitor. For the price difference of $949 and $1299 without taxes it’s unacceptable. Although MSI could have done better with a newer and faster USB. I’ve tried AW3225QF, FO32U2P, PG32UCDM, MPG321URX and they are pretty much the same as they use the same QD-OLED panel from Samsung. The extra money for savings can be used to buy more games.
Of course playing with lower FPS is going to be choppy. Thats not because if your friends monitor. Sick monitor though, one day Ill be ballin like you 😮
Yeah I meant I didn't think there would be a huge difference from 120fps/hz to 240hz. Cause I haven't gamed on 240hz before but there's a huge difference. Thanks for stopping by!👍
Thanks for this, i had the fo32up from gigabyte and i had to return it, i hate the fact that it cant hit bright levels in hdr , i had pg35vq before and it could easily hit 1300 nits in hdr and everything looked awesome, vibrant and popped out when in hdr. It was a downgrade with qd oled. I might wait ajother year for new oled panels that will reach more than thousand nits sustained like my pg35vq. But thanks for this video, i need ed to hear opinions on the much more expensive 4k 240hz monitor. Also one more thing, i think i will never go back to 4k, i will stay in ultrwide, everythin, from racing games to fps games even third person games play much better than in 4k, the extra wide space just muuuuch more immersive tahnk 4k
I love the monitor but yeah the HDR performance is not as good as my asus pg27uq monitor not a night and day difference but it’s definitely not a wow effect like on the smaller quantum dot display
@@blackboy6thst1 I don't see an issue with the chin. My room is on the dark side and the screen is so amazing, I don't notice anything but the content I am watching. The stand is very nice and gives me room without the spread out legs. If the prices were all the same, I still wouldn't buy an Asus product.
@@sbr-synrosimbugracing9338 the issue for me is it actually has not technical reason to be there. They should’ve made it symmetrical as they could. LED monitors have it because they have a backlight.

UPDATE ON HDR: I have changed some settings and HDR does look way better after the update. I will make a video on my settings. Thanks!
