Yo! They JUST dropped this week a 32" 4K 160Hz miniLED with 1,152 local dimming zones (Innocn 32M2V)! How soon will you review it. Turning on bells now, been subbed since this review. Thanks!
Love your video. Subscribed. I got lucky and bought the 27M2V(160hz)On Amazon yesterday. It sold out within like seven hours, crazy! I just hope PS5 works with VRR on it? I’m sure it will considering it’s HDMI 2.1?
Thank you for the review. I bought it last week from Amazon with a 100 euro discount coupon. I really like the monitor. With local dimming on I found the percieved contrast very close to my OLED LG TV. Mine also was flawless.
$479.99 with an additional $50 Amazon coupon. For $429.99, this seems like a steal. Superb for productivity and honestly I'm fine with gaming at 4k,60fps
Thank you for this review! I was debating between getting this Innocn monitor ($700) or the Asus ProArt PA329C ($1, 075) since they are so similar in almost every major category a photographer would care about. This review definitely answered questions I had about this monitor. So thank you! If possible, could you do a comparison between the Innocn 4k mini LED and the Asus ProArt PA329C PLEASE!
You said HDR is not good but you didn't really explain why at all and I'm a bit confused. Even if it's not hitting 1000 nits (which you never measured?), How is a monitor that can maintain full screen 650 nits (your only actual measurement) and has 384 zones FALD with 99% DCI-P color range a bad HDR experience? Those numbers are all really good for HDR IPS panels, especially in this range. You literally praised the monitor for every individual aspect that is responsible for making HDR good: no backlight bleed, good black levels, fantastic color range, high contrast ratio and high peak brightness. But then said the HDR was bad and refused to elaborate further. That makes no sense. This is my first time watching one of your reviews, only because I could not find reviews by rtings or monitors unboxed or Linus. I'm just generally really underwhelmed with how much of your review is just me taking your word for everything rather than actually measuring things. There's very little objectiveness to your reviews. Like you say the response time isn't great but you don't measure it. Response time isn't something you can just eyeball. Like I don't doubt that this monitor has bad response time but why would I take your word for it when you don't measure it?
Why care so much about HDR? It's just a gimmick at best. Also response time really not important for a monitor like this. You don't speedrun editing photos/videos etc
Tested it myself and use it for pro photo an video work. It´s really great especially for the pricetag. I even calibrated it and it reaches 100% AdobeRGB. BTW where can i get this "testvideo" with the cherries and tea images?
Best review I’ve seen for this monitor! You should review more mini led monitors. The KTC and Redmagic 32” are good variants, also LG is releasing a new 27” one this quarter
I just finished reading a new Japanese review of this product and the reviewer was able to reach around 800 nit peak brightness on HDR and even 1400 nits peak when editing manually HDR metadata. So something strange is going on. The reviewer thought that it might be a firmware issue and I sent an e-mail to the customer service regarding this issue. I hope that other folks might consider doing so too. Hopefully they will be able to solve this somehow.
@@brendanwilsonvfx5705 Hi! Yes, I use HDFury Vertex 2 device which is unfortunately quite costly for this need but it works. Hopefully Innocn comes out with a firmware update at some point.
I am thinking of buying this display for use with Mac Os. Mainly for office work (research, documents, presentation) and occasional video and audio production. Maybe even some PS5 gaming. My main concern is the silver bezel, it seems to me it might be distracting…
I also use it with Mac OS. The bezels could indeed be better colour but it is not too distracting, you get used to it and besides, many Mac models have similar kind of color scheme :-)
thanks a lot for the review. question - is PMW used to modulate brightness, do your eyes not get tired during long work, and what real color coverage did you get?
I think this is good enough for any casual gamer. I'm not a competitive gamer myself and mainly play single player titles, So having the contrast of this monitor for the price is really not bad. I still have another 32 inch Asus monitor that I can use if I ever feel a need to have the lower input lag, Definitely going to pick one up. Thank you for the in depth review as always. Keep up the great work.
Just ordered this monitor specifically to pair with my M1 Macbook Pro due to the Mini led for photo and video editing. Couldn't justify the 1.5k for the studio display.
@@vanmoof4fun Yup I got it last week. I really enjoy it, running on it now actually. The single type-c cable needed for display AND charging is awesome. Comparing it to the M1 pro display, its not as crisp, but still very good color and the sharpness meets my requirements for photo and video editing
@@EOD_90 Thanks, do you use the display in standby mode? Will it wake up quickly when you start the macbook? Could not find some informations about the sleep or wakup time or the standby power consumption. But until now i never shutdown my iMac or macbook. And another thing. Is it possible to bring the ambient light in a constant warm white color or is only a disco light possible?
@@vanmoof4fun the "rgb" is hardly noticeable if that's what you're referring to. I let my Mac go to sleep, the monitor doesn't wake immediately, by the time I wiggle the mouse and hit the finger print sensor, it takes another 5ish seconds and then I'm at my desktop.
Yep, I had it also quite bad in the beginning but it improved after a few weeks. I also calibrated and reduced the brightness so it obviously helps too. You could also consider using bias lights or other light source.
HDR looks fine on Windows, but SDR on my 27M2U-D has a problem with dark backgrounds dues to (I believe) local dimming: images are oversaturated AND veiled at the same time (white elements look gray). There is no way to turn local dimming off, as the option is greyed out in the OSD.
I was looking around on Amazon trying to find a good monitor to replace my current Apple 27inch Cinema display. I just managed to order one brand new for roughly $180 and am super excited to see this thing come in the mail.
@@kdkseven The monitor works great. The color accuracy isn't perfect for DCI-P3 HDR, but its acceptable. It looks gorgeous in SDR though. On Mac you can controll the brightness using the quick controls on the keyboard which is nice and i was not expecting that to work. The monitor is fantastic and i would recommend it for a Windows User, but Mac users may want to take caution, Using the monitor at 1440p on Mac provided a good experience which is far superior to the Apple Cinema Display i was using previously. I am planning on removing the matte screen protector on the display since that may make the image a bit sharper and hopefully improve the color accuracy a bit more as the texture can make a difference in some cases.
@@Joseg19988426 Thanks for the update. I think i'm going to pull the trigger. I don't mind working through some of the issues as long as they can be solved. I'm mostly interested in excellent colors and blacks for a reasonable price. And i'm going to look into removing that matte layer too because that definitely sounds like it would improve the picture (wasn't aware that could be done!).Thanks again for helping me make this decision.
@@Joseg19988426 Thanks for the information. Pulled the trigger when it went down to $200 in an Amazon flash sale. Good color and blacks are my main concern, so i don't mind if i have to do some trickery to get it to work. I am really interested in removing the matte finish and have watched a few videos on now to do it but was wondering if this InnoCN monitor has a matte coating or a matte film. I would be very interested in what you find if you do go through with the matte screen protector removal (i've seen videos on how to do both). I have an older monitor that i'm planning on doing a test run on, but would like to know as much as possible before jumping in on the new one. Thanks again for the information!

You came right out at the beginning sounding too hyped up. I thought uh-oh, but man was I wrong! You really know your stuff. I'm gonna buy it right now on Amazon. It's on sale for another couple of hours only for $489 bucks. Amazon will ship it to me in South America. It'll cost me almost 200 bucks in shipping and customs duties but even after that I'm still gonna end up paying a good price considering that after the sale ends it'll go back up to I don't know what. But as a general rule Amazon doesn't lie about stuff like that. I would not be able to get it at all where I live. I checked. I've been an Amazon buyer for 12 years and they're pretty honest.Thank you! .....P.S. After the sale this morning the price went up to USD $699.99. YAY !!!!
The price rebounded in other two occasions this month according to Keepa. If you're patient, you might get it for a very low price down the line. I'm considering buying it, the 490 price point is great for a 4K/60 monitor with great black levels, but hopefully there's something better by the end of the year.
@@Minarreal I went ahead and bought it at the $489 price. Amazon just notified me that it has already shipped. I was super content with my Asus CX5 laptop that didn't have in mind to buy anything like this until a few days ago when I walked into a store and saw a mini-led panel on a $1,300 TV. Something snapped in my mind. The picture was so good it was spooky. Ten years ago I had a Sammy hd 1080p TV and thought I had died and gone to viewing heaven. This one is way, way better. Until Amazon came down here it was so extremely complicated to get stuff from back home.
Looking for a less costly option to the apple studio display. The apple display is designed with vent holes right on top. I believe dust will accumulate like crazy and the monitor won't last long. Is spraying a can of air at the vents good enough? Is it a bad idea to cover most of the vent on top with a thin filter paper? If I'm going to get an expensive monitor, I'd like to think I'll use it for many years.
I've never had any of my old or newer monitors with top vents randomly break so it seems like a non-issue. Some modern monitors now come with a fan inside so be careful with compressed air.
I would also like more on the HDR information. You say it's not great, but just how bad is that, most gamers are used to honestly awful monitors, would it still blow their mind?
I bought an 27M2U-D based on.your recommendation. Out of the box connected to my M3 Pro Pro. it looks like a clown show with everything like the colors were at 100%. I dried to adjust many settings and I was able to get a smaller clown show! Is monitor may work on Widows, but it doest work on Mac !! I have an LG UltraFine and the only thing it has it brightness over it. I will try too calibrated it to see if I can make it work.. If not them I will return it !! This is not a Mac monitor ! Maybe the D means Defective ..
@@kdkseven Yes, I used my Spyder X to calibrate it in SDR mode and it looks great. The black are Black and the White is really white. I bought another one for my dual monitor set up. There are still issues with this monitor on Mac. It doesn't wake from sleep on a Mac, which wasn't a deal breaker for me because I turn off all power to my system at night. It doesn't do HDR unless you turn that on in the display setting on the Mac, but then you lose brightness control. In SDR mode the monitor looks great and is color accurate to 99%. I like the mini-LED display in 4k resolution. The biggest CON I have is the Tech support is less than Useless if you have a problem. I reached out to them and they refused to help because I bought it from Amazon. If you have a problem just return it during the return window. Keep in mind that you will need to Calibrate the monitor to use it.. otherwise it looks like the Red, Green and blue are at 100%..
@@stroke1516 Thanks for all the information and tips-- it's really helpful. I'm mostly interested in good colors and blacks at a not too expensive price, and i'm not that concerned with HDR on my computer. Thanks again for helping me make this decision.
Can you compare the INNOCN 27M2U monitor to the Dell Ultra UltraSharp (U3223QE or U2723QE) -- both seem like excellent 4K monitors for a M1 Mac mini or M1 MacBook Pro? -- Please comment when you get a chance - thank you!
Perfect review! As for the HDR, I could care less about that. For the rare times that I do need it, I use MadVR which is far superior to any device's built-in HDR processing. If you don't use it already, @Type-C Tech Reviews, I cannot recommend it enough. It is incredible that amount of detail and tuning you can wring out of your source material to take it to the next level.
According to the Notebookcheck, it flickers all the time, at high level though. When I first started to use the monitor, I got occasional headaches but now my head has gotten used to it.
@@armen1136 No, my understanding is that it flickers all the time. Also the manufacturer does not say that it would be flicker free, just that it has blue-light reduction options available.
Whoa, 650 nits is really bright -- brighter than the apple studio display. Does it have any bloom? (I don't see a lot of it in the video but I'm still curious). It would be so cool if they could get the refresh rate to 90hz or higher as it would make it much more competitive with the high end oleds in terms of refresh but would beat it in terms of text clarity.
There is definitely bloom in certain scenarios like a bunch of tiny and small things on screen with black background and the white youtube media player buttons against black. Most of the time it is subtle or none.
I just bought one of these things open box new for $329 out the door and I love it, it was still in its bag.

Dude you haaaavvee to review the innocn 43g1v, it's a 43 inch 4k 144hz monitor at only 600 dollars
I would also like more on the HDR information. You say it's not great, but just how bad is that, most gamers are used to honestly awful monitors, would it still blow their mind?
Right now -- 26 June 2024 -- this is a crazy $200 on Amazon. A lot of people have a lot of problems with it, though. Coin toss.
It looks pretty good, but I don't know this brand, is it reliable?
Yes they a lot of good products I think this brand is popular Europe region?
It is a pretty good product but I would not count for firmware updates.
I bought an 27M2U-D based on.your recommendation. Out of the box connected to my M3 Pro Pro. it looks like a clown show with everything like the colors were at 100%. I dried to adjust many settings and I was able to get a smaller clown show! Is monitor may work on Widows, but it doest work on Mac !! I have an LG UltraFine and the only thing it has it brightness over it. I will try too calibrated it to see if I can make it work.. If not them I will return it !! This is not a Mac monitor ! Maybe the D means Defective ..
Did it end up working out? I'm thinking of ordering this for use with my MacBook Pro.
@@kdkseven Yes, I used my Spyder X to calibrate it in SDR mode and it looks great. The black are Black and the White is really white. I bought another one for my dual monitor set up. There are still issues with this monitor on Mac. It doesn't wake from sleep on a Mac, which wasn't a deal breaker for me because I turn off all power to my system at night. It doesn't do HDR unless you turn that on in the display setting on the Mac, but then you lose brightness control. In SDR mode the monitor looks great and is color accurate to 99%. I like the mini-LED display in 4k resolution. The biggest CON I have is the Tech support is less than Useless if you have a problem. I reached out to them and they refused to help because I bought it from Amazon. If you have a problem just return it during the return window. Keep in mind that you will need to Calibrate the monitor to use it.. otherwise it looks like the Red, Green and blue are at 100%..
@@stroke1516 Thanks for all the information and tips-- it's really helpful. I'm mostly interested in good colors and blacks at a not too expensive price, and i'm not that concerned with HDR on my computer. Thanks again for helping me make this decision.
Just got one for $350 on Amazon sale.
That must be the 60hz one. No way the 160 hz was 350
Can you compare the INNOCN 27M2U monitor to the Dell Ultra UltraSharp (U3223QE or U2723QE) -- both seem like excellent 4K monitors for a M1 Mac mini or M1 MacBook Pro? -- Please comment when you get a chance - thank you!
I've been asking around and this response is late, but I buying this due to the high percent of argb and dci-p3 for such a low cost.
Would've been better if it was black but 32" is still too big for a monitor.
Perfect review! As for the HDR, I could care less about that. For the rare times that I do need it, I use MadVR which is far superior to any device's built-in HDR processing. If you don't use it already, @Type-C Tech Reviews, I cannot recommend it enough. It is incredible that amount of detail and tuning you can wring out of your source material to take it to the next level.
exc review, is flicker free in local on and off?
According to the Notebookcheck, it flickers all the time, at high level though. When I first started to use the monitor, I got occasional headaches but now my head has gotten used to it.
@@LaaLaaLeevi Turn off the auto brightness
@@cjohnny8010 Yes, I have done so :-)
@@LaaLaaLeevi Was it the auto brightness that was causing that issue?
@@armen1136 No, my understanding is that it flickers all the time. Also the manufacturer does not say that it would be flicker free, just that it has blue-light reduction options available.
If this monitor had 120hz it be the best one
Wouldn’t be the same price
They do have 120hz it’s just double the price
este monitor se puede usar en 1440p ?
Claro 🙂
@@LaaLaaLeevi a qué frecuencia iría ?
INNOCN 27MU 4k 1000nit
is$268 in China
Not bad! 😮
if kept at sim price in a 32' at at least 100hz and i will have to get in for 2 i think... lol
Whoa, 650 nits is really bright -- brighter than the apple studio display. Does it have any bloom? (I don't see a lot of it in the video but I'm still curious). It would be so cool if they could get the refresh rate to 90hz or higher as it would make it much more competitive with the high end oleds in terms of refresh but would beat it in terms of text clarity.
Viewed straight on there's no perceivable blooming. Looks like an OLED without the micro contrast.
@@Andrea-yf3hu awesome, my next monitor might be mini led!
There is definitely bloom in certain scenarios like a bunch of tiny and small things on screen with black background and the white youtube media player buttons against black. Most of the time it is subtle or none.
i can get one of these brand new on fb marketplace for 329 bucks, yay or nay?
