I am aware of some reports of incorrect gamma tracking on this display… I have checked my unit with Calibrite's hardware/software tools, and it passes validation, with only a tiny calibration tweak from out of the box – very impressive! So as far as I can tell with my eyes and data – no gamma issue! The reports could be a bad batch, or using wrong modes, like HDR in the desktop etc. Happy to explore further if more widespread.

I can't wait to buy this monitor to replace my 2012 ASUS VS239. I've been searching for it in stores every single day for the last three months, but here in Portugal it's still selling for over €1,100.

i got the XG32UCWMG last month, i was originally looking for a monitor with these xg34 specs, but i ended up trading in a 2x ultrawide setup for a single 4k 16:9 …

these new asus ROG Oleds are the best displays on the market this year, imo…

great review….

i want to get this monitor eventually

Would a woled be more comfy on the eyes ?

Wee question Marcus, can you change the colour of Asus logo from red on the front of the panel?

So the black film tech is the same for all monitors with this panel. That comes directly from Samsung. It's just marketed differently by different brands.

Do they do a bigger lower refresh rate version?

I have 5080 rtx prime im looking get a 4k 32in I see lots people say its going run harder cause all the pixels double from 1440 feels like a lot of reviews im hearing people trying talk out of 4k i dont play competitive gaming more city builder rts games some triple a but all solo for most part and seems be so many options just want the best image on screen current 1440 32 curved Samsung g5 is muted and dull in colors and brightness in hdr nits around 300.

I think you're the first one to have both this Asus model and Alienware one. Which one would you pick? Which one takes less space on the desk? (Distance from the wall)

rgb stripe ?

Nah, I'll wait for a non-ultrawide option

Every time I think I can settle on which one to get, there's an issue. Now I see the people saying there's some gamma problem with this and washed out colors.

I look forward to you testing the new Alienware 39 incher

Im not sure of the exact curves
I wonder if the different manufacturers can use different curves to see which is the most popular
Or perhaps they all just want to use the same one…whatever that is

Im not super sure of the details between say dell and aSUS and presumably msi will have their own too and then who knows

Whether intentionally dell is usally on the cheaper side no idea about msi while LG and aSUS and sansung supposedly try to have more although whether that justifies the price
aSUS entire lineup pretty much has the sensor at least although I think msi is working on that too and gigabyte?

Also
Marketing
LG/aSUS/sansung have the most marketing by far
While dell uhhh hmmm

The black shield thing is just an Asus marketing term, the panel coatings across the Alienware and Asus will be identical!

Holy fuck most of these comments HAVE to be bots.

Never seen so much bs negativity in comments for a bloody review

I hate monitors that have the cable tidying so visible. No matter what angle you view this monitor from, you’re stuck looking at crappy wires near the bottom of it. Hopefully you can mount it on to an arm to get better control but otherwise it just has the same problem as every other monitor like it.

bro can afford that expensive monitor but not a windows 11 license lol

34" ultrawide doesn't have enough vertical height

Just picked up the following for 629$ (Still a few left if you wanna snag the deal) on Amazon : Acer Predator X32 | 31.5" UHD 3840 x 2160 Quantum Dot OLED 1700R Curved Gaming Monitor | AMD FreeSync Premium | 240Hz | 0.03ms | 1000nits

Tandem oled? Not worth the risk of grey banding
