Icue software is far from reliable, it crashes every day
Lovely monitor. Gloss finish makes it utterly useless to me.
why they cant make matt coatings there are people who dont like glossy bcs your room is bright and the windows is behind the desk
More brightness is hearting our eyes
only 165hz? Yeah lemme buy an 5090 for 6k$+ to get there in some games.
Looks good but will wait for a 240hz version in 2 years…
165hz is a pathetic refresh rate
I bought a asus rog swift oled pg42uq in 2022, what is the new technology like compeared to this and when do I upgrade?
Im still ok with 60hz on my pc, and have a 120hz oled as tv/gaming also, that is nice, so 160hz is well good enough for 99.99% of people, oh, and deffo HDR 400 is what you want to use, all other hdr settings just mess the colours up.
Would this still look good if I was only running 1440p rather than 4k?
I really can't decide whether I should buy this monitor or the XG32UQWMS… I definetly want an LG display for the inky blacks.
thanks, i just shat myself at 5:51 after finishing my RAM overclock and thinking i messed up
Great video! Would gaming at 1440p look good on this monitor? as i had an Aueros 32 inch Oled 4K monitor and at 1440p it was blurry to the point where i got rid of it for a 27inch oled.
Need videos in the new setup!!
There is a good point in that with 32 inch at these prices the 27 inch models have not really adjusted most of them are still around this area
What I will say is that if there were other options
I wont deny that I actually have been looking forward to trying out dual mode so the fact that this doesnt have it at all is a bit of a bummer
The fact that all the others have dual mode as standard now (even the older UCWG) feels a bit much of a compromise at this price
TB400 vs TB500 on penta tandem qd oled also 165hz vs 240hz….. the mag 321up x24 is $100 more and is superior minus the non rgb pixel structure which I must say I don't notice on mine at 28" distance. Since holidays around the corner look out for sales as I'm sure it will drop to 700 or even less, it was already recently 740 which is when i picked mine up. Looking forward to TB600 4k 360hz next year with rgb stripe qd oled
For what its worth
a few months ago you could find 32 inch oled for 600
Even right now the previous ASUS UCWG is maybe available at 650 (down from 700 previously)
Gigabyte also still hasnt mentioned anything and we are halfway through october already they are supposed to have a 32 as well though given asus is pushing theirs gigabyte might not be able
Even LG has joined the discount train though theirs are still the most expensive by a fair bit
Dell themselves have recently raised prices too which isnt great
hi pc centric or commenters .. i have a lg oled 27gn750 and when i turn on hdr and i was playing the lego batman 3 beyonsd gotham.. when i was moving it would get a bright glare light as if it was shadow but bright never understood why it did that so i would just turn hdr off and that glare would come off .. is that normal…???? yes i undestand the monitor is a couple years old but for instance the video to pc centric it does not happen the white glare .. any solutions i can do??? have rtx 3060 geforce…
Good to see that its here now
The main issue is that so far its not available in some regions and in others its kind of overpriced
Also this one doesnt have dual mode and asus dual mode that does 240/480 is at the same price which is a bit iffy
Either dell needs to lower the price which is kind of rough considering its already really new or uh hmmm
165 hz monitors…are trash😐
So I want a tandem oled for beat hdr brightness?
Should be 240hz
All I want is a 4k 27" 1800R OLED monitor and nobody makes one 🙁
My eyes aren't as young as yours. I need to sit a bit closer. 32" is too big and I want the slight curve.
I also have more money than young people so I dunno why they don't make my monitor.
It would be nice to see the IPS side by side with this and generally for OLED reviews.
