Local Dimming Neo G8: is set to Low (to give you an Idea of the max brightness of the AW3225QF and to keep blooming at a minimum) both 100 brightness.
So if it's on High, the neo G8 is overbloomed?
@@BuddyBoy1st if on High the Neo G8 destroys any QD OLED. It would show too much bloom here. Blooming is still well controlled but its hard to show in this vs video and I didnt want to stop the flow of the music with overblown camera shots. Ill have a high setting in the future on the Neo. I love both...
@@ViktorsReality Nice so Neo g8 would destroy qd oled on high, but the camera can't capture it correctly so you put it on low local dimming. Did you also put this on Contrast enhancer on?
@@BuddyBoy1st this was in sdr. So i had the Neo G8 on Low with the local dimming. Contrast enhancer was off as its more a preference option. The Neo G8 is a fun monitor and delivers on picture impact . The QD OLED really stands out in HDR.
@@ViktorsRealityI have neo g8 with contrast enchancer on and local dimming Low, 30% brightNess. On high setting noticed before much much blooming in dark areas and loss alot of details in dark areas again, but high setting add more bright also.
What do you mean on high setting beat any qd oled in which aspec?
the battle ive been waiting for!!!!! thanks VIC!!!
Love this channel. Love your enthusiasm with these monitors. I’ve just purchased an Odissey Neo G7 32’’ since OLED is way to delicate for my usage. Have to say I’m so happy with it. It’s just amazing just like you said.
Nice! Congrats on your Neo G7. I would say thr Neos are funner... (I know thats not a word... lol)
Best monitor channel on RUclips... Viktor number 1 💪💪💪
@@ViktorsReality they are definitely wonderful. I couldn’t believe my eyes the first time I saw my games at 4k with real HDR. My 4080 is working hard now lol.
Just when you thought you forgot about that musical victor reality gives you back an wake up call☠️😂
🤣
Good vid. I'm pretty sure the actors in the vid had soooooo much fun. I'm a singer/songwriter myself and I couldn't help but sing along. I was having so much fun.
True... all the actors in the behind the scenes vids were all laughing and having fun. Its perfect all around!
Viktor is so right.. i test it out yesterday... Samsung Odyssey Neo G8 Local Dimming on High is mind blowing.. And trust me this Neo G8 is very bright.. its more then amazing.
Hey Vic, which monitor do you think is best for shooters on Xbox Series X? I mainly only play Apex Legends at 120fps and I believe it’s 1440p at 120fps in game and upscales to 4k. I’d like to have no blur and highest frames to 120 without crazy drops. It would have to have hdmi 2.1 of course. I dont believe the Neo G8 would be the answer. If you would give your top three monitors for this, that would be great.
In the opening scene I couldn't really tell a difference until the black dude came on then it was very obvious for me the QD-OLED shined for me.
Brightness is not only about luminosity but it affects the colour reproduction too. Making the colors looking more natural on the G8.
Can you please give me your best settings for the neo G8. That give you the best settings you recommend 🙏🏻
Id love to try the G8 BUT I am SUPER sensitive to black smearing.
Ive yet to see a VA panel with 0 smearing like my LG 32GQ950-B
Whats your thought on the smearing Victor?
Well this Neo has the fastest VA I have seen. But even here the VA still has a very small smear/trail. Its the best but not Nano IPS clear.
you try the odyssey neo g9 57'' 2304 dimming zones its a fast display 240hz
I have the older G7 (non neo) and I don't notice any smearing, the panel is extremely fast, if I remember correctly the NEO G8 is about as fast and it has even less overshoot at higher overdrive levels. If Samsung releases an updated Neo G8 with DP 2.1 I would buy it in an instant.
Viktor do the msi 27 qd oled vs the lg gs 27 side by side please ❤
Hey Victor, thanks for this video. I received my LG GS 27" yesterday, man I'm really disappointed. The remote responsiveness is terrible, and man I thought a Ultra gear GP3 sound speaker I have would work through the headphone jack and they do not. What is with all these companies with either no speakers and making it difficult. I was getting the new Alienware at one point, I didn't pull the trigger because of the eArc crap. What happened to just being able to use external speakers? SMH. Sorry for the rant, I wanted to ask you, can you hook speakers up to the G8?
First how is the picture? But a 3.5mm headphone port is there but you want speakers? Ill see with mine. These have dts enhanced audio for headphones.
@@ViktorsReality The picture is beautiful, no complaints there. I bought a 3.5mm cable this morning plugged it in to the headphone jack, I always though I can get sound to my speakers that way, but it's not working. Not sure if I'm doing something wrong. Quick question, I was going to return for the Neo G8,
does this support speakers through the headphone jack?
Could you do another comparison between the 2 but in HDR and show the differences between the LD settings, like with a dark scene and a bright light? I heard when you use High LD it suppresses highlights for darker dark areas, has tighter control of the back-light for more detail/definition and better blooming control and if you use Low LD highlights are brighter in darker scenes (though less bright for brighter scenes) and shadow detail is better but has more blooming and less definition/detail. But Low LD seems to read alot lower for max HDR brightness on HWUB review of the G7.....I was just wondering if you could setup the G8 to match the picture quality of the QD-OLED as close as possible for SD/APL/highlights and see how close a ~1200 zone 32" Mini-LED can get in real HDR content! If possible. 😀
Thank you very much for these comparisons. I have the NEO G8 and was thinking of selling it, but I don't see an over whelming difference to justify the financial loss for when I want those higher refresh rates. It isn't my main monitor. That is the Dell UltraSharp 32 6K Monitor - U3224KB which is a black IPS panel and has much superior resolution, HDR and brightness compared to the NEO G8. It however only has a 60Hz refresh rate. But I'd rather game at 60HZ than give up those benefits. BTW did they resolve the 240 Hz blockiness of the NEO G8 with a firmware update? Thanks again for the excellent work.
You are smart man. Great review
Please, what is the best setting on alienware for SDR if I like a bit oversaturated colors ?
Sports mode is nice. You csn also use console mode for added color / saturation control
Ok, thank you !@@ViktorsReality
Narrated parts start at: 0:40, 3:25, 8:18, 12:51
@Viktors Reality neo g7 vs neo g8 , which 1 best in 2024 , for shooter games , single player games , movies , you tube , chrome surfing ?? please suggest only 100$ gap in price in india between neo g7 and g8 .
Neo G7 will give you everything you need. The 240hz is noce on the G8 but it also has a stronger matte coating while the Neo G7 is semi matte.
@@ViktorsReality I bought neo g7 after your videos. Coating is very heavy and noticeable.. how bad is g8 I can't imagine, probably I'm very sensitive to this. Btw on my g7 2k coating was not so bad.
I LOVE MINI LED TECH.... I tried OLED for competitive play but unless you turn off pixel shifting it is unusable for sniping.
how does that make sense it's not like it it shifts every 10 seconds. enjoy ur mini led 👍🏽
What we prefer true black from dimming 8,xxx,xxx zone vs 1196 zone on MINI-LED
Hope to see a LG 27GSQE VS AW3225qf or other new qdoled , that video will be fire！🔥
I just got in the new msi 27" qd oled and new mini led from lg
great man~LG 27 VS MSI 27 would be interesting haha@@ViktorsReality
The song was awesome, never seen it.
should i purchase PG32UCDM if i have Neo G8?
Only if you want pin point HDR and zero chance of blooming and a nicer surface coating. It's not night and day but more like day and afternoon. The Neo G8 still has that sdr and hdr impact that not even these qd oleds can surpass.
Oled tech still looks too dim but will probably go with the alienware for response times and input lag.
Don't forget about the inverse ghosting that va is known for. The oled looks way better in this video
VIC!!!!!!!!! i JUST BOUGHT THE G8 mini led after watching, All my monitors I buy you give me the best breakdown thank you,,, my 1st OLED was 34 ultra wide G8 but it was too dark IMO retuned it, Ive seen many people complain about the Darkness (in my circle) for oleds, I play COD completive so dont care about color but I bought a 4090 so i can move to 4k, but prefer a brighter monitor, also ive heard even the 20-30% brighter LG panel Asus coming later in the year is matte and not that much better than the current back ordered ones, hope i made the right decision it was only 899 brand new from amazon so we will see.. thanks again
Congrats man... Im sure you will love the Neo. :)
Thanks!
Thx willow! Thx for all the support thru the yr... I appreciate it so much..
at the end I prefer the MiniLED :D
None OLEDs really smash it with that brightness, at some point blooming should be a wash for content but that brightness will always be noticeable. both great!
I still want qd OLED but I thought I wanted the HP omen but it only has UHBR10 not the full UHBR20 that the gigabyte has but I'm not so sure because I only hear bad things about gigabyte
It seems nowadays every brand has issues on different things. Sometimes my Aorus firmware does not even register. Lol tough times for sure. These monitors should come ready to go.. for prices we pay..
Still QD-OLED is not available on non-USA countries
I live in Germany and can buy multiple variants of QD-Oled. I even own a AW3225QF so wich Country you live in ?
Can you share your settings for hdr and sdr in general for neo g8 thank you
For this video the main difference is local dimming. Low or high its up to you and contrast enhancer on or off. Try this: Custom, black equalizer 12 or 13. 100 brightness (even 80 is still nice an punchy), contrast 70, sharpness 48, gamma mode 2. Color standard or warm 1.
@@ViktorsReality this calibration is with HDR?
Tell me if im looking at this wrong.
1. I like that the samsung has an audio jack and blue tooth. Does the dell have it?
2. Samsung can go much brighter. Is the dell bright enough tho? My room is right beside a window so im worried dell wont be bright enough since it has a glossy finish.
3. With some tweeking, can the Samsung come looking as good as the dell?
In conclusion, the blue tooth, jack and brightness plus the 1000r curve points to Samsung as the winner. Now dell has better color. But if Samsung can be tweeked to look as good or atleast closer, Does that mean samsung is still better?
You can tweak everything on the Samsung. In sdr and hdr modes. Color, saturation, contrast enhancer, local dimming. Alot of options are open. Tho the Dell is nice. Creator mode is really good. I love creator mode. As long as you dont have the dell in front of a window, on the side its still great
Does the AW3225qf cause eye strain ?
I have not felt any. I have used it about 2 months now. No issues for me.
My gf has a 4k OLED and I always find myself straining quicker than my 1080p monitor just my opinion
What song is this?
Herald of darkness from old gods of asgard
@@ViktorsRealityappreciate it it. Song was good
Uffff belleza de música
Holy grail monitor will come one day.
Yo Vik.😊
i got the 27inc 360hz qd-oled, its perfect in every way for me, only upgrades for future now is 500hz, one day 1000hz
Which brand did u go with
@@Dlo_BestLife Dell AW2725DF, its £780 in the UK which is redicously cheap compared to it's current only competitor the MSI £999
How you using sound?
I don't understand your question@@RoyalBoyle78
LG 27GR95UM?!
Coming up..
Wait so this was sdr?
Yes but the Neo is not at full power as the highlights would blowout and blooming would appear a small bit. Sdr nits on the AW is at 270nits while the Neo is 310 in most full white scenese with local dimming off or low.
@@ViktorsReality but these are hdr monitors, using sdr is like limiting them at least 50%, the oled even more. Do you have a video where you compare these 2 monitors in hdr while using the peak 1000 mode on the alienware?
@@Superdazzu2 I just started recording in HDR. I will re do these. But many ppl want these monitors but cannot use HDR as windows is hit or miss. I can easuly see even in this video the OLED advantage in certain situations. But yes HDR is where these both are at max. Ill get to it soon. This video was only is sdr so i need to find a cool new hdr made video.
The lg black levels hdr video (the one with teapot, honey etc) could be good for testing haloing, black levels and highlights, meanwhile the hdr costa rica video can be good to test color popping and high abl brightness@@ViktorsReality
Lol, i actually wanna play Alan Wake 2 now.
I too am going back in this weekend.. lol
@@ViktorsRealityHaven't played this game since launch last year.. Did they make a lot of improvements to this game with all the updates? HDR still looks very good on this game on PC?
2024 G8 is out now
Mine arrived today! Cant wait to test it out..
I am going to Bestbuy today lol
@@dasielp nice! Congrats!
oh yea vikers the lg dual mode 1080p@ 480hz 4k @ 240hz went live today $1399 with mid april shipping direct from lg
doesn't get much better than gen3 QD-OLED
Less gooo
Someone needs psychotherapy.
VA
Awesome analysis. The video is insufferable tho.
im sorry but why do you talk like a bot?
Oh I need to reboot myself thx.. 🤣
Beep boop@@ViktorsReality
As someone who played AW2 on a QD OLED for almost all of the game and finished on a mini LED with a 1152 zones... I can safely say QD OLED wins even though its not as bright in larger scenes. I lost so much nits in smaller highlights, the colours didnt really compare either. I mean you are talking 1196 zones vs 8.3million and even with a great dimming algorithm it just cannot compete. It has to either let blooming be noticeable or dim the area enough to not notice it. Which then equals way less brightness on small highlights ( which are everywhere in games ) So OLED wins overall, nvm all the other benefits of OLED. That said Mini LED has its place, its a great middle ground and you wont have to deal with burn in at all. You get real HDR as well and that extra contrast from the local dimming makes a huge difference over normal LED monitors.
hey, in bright games does abl kicks frequently? I don't like when I move camera and brightness continue changing...
@@SuperSlokky I don't notice it tbh.
The way you have to look at it, is if matte coating was instead a glossy, it would look even much better still.
Very true..
@@ViktorsReality thanks
