I just got this monitor but have 0 idea how i should setup, noticed the brightness was kinda off and couldnt find any help until this video, very detailed explanation of each function, great videos!
I've had this monitor for about 2 weeks now. The monitor was announced as Gamescom in 2024 so it was kind of a weird release window, which is why I think it gets overlooked. I was looking for an OLED for a long time and this monitor was the first that checked all of the boxes that I've wanted. I have really enjoyed working on it so far. I was concerned, because I work a lot with text, but it doesn't bother me at all. I was also concerned about brightness and it has not been an issue at all. This video confirms what I thought already, but it is as bright or similar brightness from the LCD that I changed from. I also use the monitor for gaming and it has simply been unbelievable. I went with a 1440p resolution, because the pixel density is really good at this screen size and games are becoming increasingly more demanding which means games in the future won't run as well at 4k. Obviously GPUs are getting faster as well, however 1440p is the sweet spot for gaming in my opinion. Thanks for the review!
I was honestly surprised to hear about the brightness especially since it’s a QD OLED I might have to really look into it because I’ve been wanting one brighter than the one I have
@@schmans3 exactly! This monitor check all the boxes I want as well, first time ever. Totally agree with you and thanks for the further informations about texts and brightness. May I ask you if the blacks are really blacks like WOLED in real life? I mean... I know that if there is a strong external light the blacks are more like purple in all QD OLEDs, but in a controlled situation but not completely dark, the blacks are true black? And how is the "semi-gloss" treatment?
@@Leonardinho097 When the lights are off the blacks are true black like a WOLED, and the contrast ratio is the same as WOLED. I looks amazing! I work in a room with a large window and an overhead light and I can kind of notice that blacks have the purple tint, however that is only if you are paying close attention. I am usually working during the day with the window and lights on and it hasn't bothered me at all. It still looks incredible even with all of the light in the room. When I game I close the window and everything appears super clear and black, gaming with all the lights on as well is totally fine. I think the coating is just the same glossy finish as every other QD-OLED besides the Samsung models, which have a matte finish. It looks like I am looking at a big OLED phone screen, that's how I would describe it. So it does pick up reflections, but as long as it is not a blaring light shining directly and right next to the screen you don't even notice it when you are working, because you are focused on what is on the screen. It looks like a normal TV screen is another way to describe it.
just to clarify: hardware unboxed found the overall brightness to be 275 nits and another reviewer too i think that the place u set the brightness monitor was at the place of 25% brightness which came around 375 nits for others aswell.
I just bought an LG 34GP83A-B but was looking at a few OLED’s but my concern is burn in and longevity. I don’t want to buy a new monitor in 4 years. My wife would kill me 🤣 So do you think the LG is the way to go?
It ISSS BRO I BOUGHT MINE AMAZING DISPLAY I bought the ASUS personal opinion are aight we all have our own perspective on the matte I live on very bright rooms bUT don’t get it mistakeN LG DISPLAY HOLY THATS ITS ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL ND THE CONTROL ARE SUPER EASY COMPARE TO ASUS LOL😂
Can you do a review for the Xiaomi 27i g pro .people says it can be competitive to the AOC q27gxmn .Nice Review for the rog XG27ACDNG(I can’t afford it😭)
Hey type-c was wondering if you could do a review on the dell g2725D, the newer version to the g2724D model or if you maybe have an upcoming review on it. Would love to know your thoughts on this monitor as i havent seen very many reviews.
im wondering should i get the aqdmg or this acdng, ive been wanting a new monitor for a while now as ive been using my monitor now since 2019 and would like a upgrade
@@FREAK66292 latest gen 3 QD have best text clarity among all oled. Mean while W OLED + gloss finish is very very eye hurting when read text. I cant believe QD Oled+ matte finish might be the best choice for office or work heavy use. since Matte finish help protect eyes in long section use too.
How does this compare to the ROG Swift OLED PG27AQDP besides one being 360hz and the other 480hz what other key differences are there between the there??
@@ownageboxdifferent/new settings, different brightness, and some minor improvements overall. I would say overall this is a " big " upgrade from the AQDP, obviously the refresh rate and overall motion clarity is worse on this, same with input delay but if we ignore that everything else is actually slightly better.
I own this Monitor and the AOC Agon PRO AG276QZD2 QD-OLED. The 3.5mm audio jakc on the AOC has a little bit more power more volume more more Bass while on the Asus the volume is slightly lower but the mids and highs are just a tad bit better..
It's always with DSC enabled these days. Just so you know. That's why we can do 480hz 1440p on a dp 1.4. if you want native without DSC, IIRC it was around that 240hz at 1440p that it can deliver. However you shouldn't care about DSC at all. You aren't at a disadvantage in any type of way. The input delay is the same with or without ( to human eyes, not in terms of numbers but the number difference is also so low that we are talking about way below 1ms difference ) also visually you won't notice any difference because even for the top professionals it is near impossible to spot any visual difference with DSC on or off. I'm not saying that no one can spot a difference between DSC being on / off but for us all normal people we literally won't see any difference. So whether it uses DSC or not it's irrelevant, DSC is useful. Obviously there can be slightly increased alt tab times but that doesn't affect the performance in any way
@@mdzavaid118 I bought the UCDM because of it's internal KVM switch (because I use both a Mac and a PC on it, both daily) and honestly, I'm a little disappointed as to how it works. I was hoping a simple keystroke would be enough to switch, but the configuration is clunky, and requires pressing one button on the monitor to get into input selection menu, then moving the nipple to the other device and pressing it in. It's unnecessary. All they had to do is make an option where the same button just switches to the next device. It's not a big deal, I'm hoping they'll fix it with a firmware sometime in the future. The other issue I noticed is VRR flicker on low framerates in dark scenes, but that almost never happens. Image quality though, is flawless. 32" is perfect size for 4K so pixels aren't visible (I got spoiled by Apple retina MBP), HDR content is so good I have no idea how will the technology improve from this point on. I do need two monitors for my work, both connected to two systems, so if it wasn't this expensive, I'd buy two without hesitation.
I purchased this monitor last week and love it. It also has a 3yr warranty, that covers burn in. I wish their software actually worked, it has more configurable options than what the controls on the monitor has.
@@JaeeezZ No eye strain, but its in sRGB mode and I'm in a dark room. I read QD-OLED eye strain could be due to the default color mode being overly saturated.
What would you recommend between this and PG27AQDP? I usually play in HDR and dont like auto dimming or what is called ADL, I like the brightness to stay constant and vibrant. I saw both ur reviews of this and PG27AQDP but watching on RUclips is not the same as if its front of you, so u have seen both Infront of you, what do u say? I am stuck between these 2, Ur opinion will really matter. TIA
This 100% and this comes from someone who normally dislikes Asus products. This is one of the best if not the best monitor to buy right now, definitely the best 1440p 360hz QD-OLED at least. I highly recommend it.
@ it’s definitely a bright monitor and yes I have but if your looking for the brightest and a very colourful experience put brightness on 100 or 90 then saturation on 60sdr with a gamma of 2.2 or 2.4 with contrast on 80 then for hdr 100 percent brightness saturation on 65 then 80 for contrast hope this helps everyone out cause if your looking for a vibrant and bright image this will be perfect not to saturated just perfect hope everyone enjoys this monitor cause it’s amazing :)
@@chai817 it is bright but IMO the "brightness" comes from the great contrast .. it is bright without being "bright/washedout" like how I was accustomed to .. the text issue for me was gone once i set the text scaling to 125% .. people talking is good .. i learn .. i almost was gonna send it back for the "blurry text" issue .. the text issue is a size issue it seems

Can you give review about ELMB feature on this monitor and how is it compare to the one on W-OLED version xg27aqdmg?
I still plan on checking this out. I know that you can use ELMB in either 180hz or 120hz modes. I believe it turns off VRR when enabling ELMB.
I can't decide between these two models either. I bought both just to compare them this week. I think I'll go with the QD-OLED, but I'll see.
