What are your thoughts on the two monitors? Is one a clear winner?
Neither are perfect:
LG has the 'matte problem'
Asus has the qd-oled 'raised blacks' problem.
The god monitor is basically a mini lg c2....which for reasons known only to the gods they don't want to give us 🤷
bro you are the best I could not make a choice between the two and the reason why I discovered this monitor in the first place was because you reviewed them
I had the ASUS and sent it back due to being locked out of colour temp / white balance settings which I find ridiculous. It looked way too orange to me in HDR. I’m now waiting for the LG for UK release as I’ve had it confirmed you can change colour temp in HDR mode. Any inside info on a UK release ?
Also ordered the Magnus pro desk a few days back. 👌🏼 my set up will pretty much be the same as yours at this rate 🤣
i think the LG, but its my opinion. I like the design, and the matte finish.
I was all for the lg until u mentioned the usbc on the ROG. I could just use the extra hdmi port but the usbc is just more convenient with the charging
Always nice to watch a new Spawnpoint video on my 720p hp monitor
Don't do me like that 😂😩
lmaooo
iam reading this comment from 720p monitor
In 480p
@@pirateluffy01 lucky i'm on 144p
your videos are crisp and clear. i enjoyed every bit of this review
I appreciate that!
This felt very impartial. Also a great side-by-side comparison by using the same source. You could see the color differences and also the black levels as you called out. Really hard to do I am sure BUT you were able to show it. I hear about the differences but never actually see them. Really well done!
Thanks for your comment. I know there's a lot of talk about these monitors, so I wanted to try to demonstrate the differences as best as possible. The bottom line is whichever monitor someone picks they will be happy with it.
Nice content this what we need to see!
The video I have been waiting for!
This is what I’ve been waiting for!! Thanks man 👌
No problem!
This is great comparison man. Thanks 🙏
Honestly, this is a great, great comparison of the monitors. Very nice.
Regarding glossy vs semi glossy, the QD OLED has raised blacks on lit rooms, so in the video, every time the lights are on the LG always looks better.
And that's a negative for the Asus one. I wont always be using it in a very dark room. Hummm
which is interesting makes using the W oled alittle more appealing the other thing I noticed is it looked like the QD OLED was a bit too red
The Asus also has some harsh orange hue for some reason in comparison to the LG, making the colors look more natural on the LG. Maybe that's fixable in settings but as is the LG looks better to me here at all times.
@@Lightking813Agreed. Asus usually has a reddish tint to their displays. They also all have this "wide gamut" mode that usually makes it even more red lol. That can, however, be adjusted with custom User RGB color settings.
But I'm literally so torn right now between sticking with my LG pre-order or with cancelling it and buying this Asus QD OLED... I kinda dig the Dolby Vision HDR support but don't know if there will really be that big of a difference in the two monitor's HDR performance for my usage on PC...especially because I generally use lower monitor brightness (even when using HDR). And also, I have never seen either of these OLED coatings or sub-pixel layouts in person before....so I'm not really sure which one I would prefer...
QDOLED work in a cave. then perfect!
Nice dude, I'm working on the same comparison right now except I wasn't able to snag an Asus. MSI 321URX vs 32GS95UE should be a solid comparison.
i'm leaning the LG myself as well though due to the speaker and dual mode.
Love your videos dude ❤
Thank you for this video! I'm still undecided on which monitor I will get next but I look forward to your future reviews.
Thanks for your review, mate. I'd go with LG because I sit next to the window and matte suits better in my case. Could you compare LG with AW3225QF?
Thanks for the video! you are the best. Are you still going to keep the LG as your main monitor?
Absolutely excellent comparison video! I hope this video blows up!
Thank you 🙏
Thanks for the review ! May be to complete the list of new gen of gaming monitors. Can we expect a review of the new Alienware (AW3225QF) ? I know its curved and not flat but think that's worth it !
First of all, Your content is seriously amazing and unbiased and the camera angles and the videography is just so pleasing to my eyes. One question though, why don’t you upload in HDR? Does UA-cam doesn’t do justice to HDR videos uploaded by individual content creators?
Back with another banger mate. Still can’t believe the quality of these videos especially when you think it’s recorded on an iPhone 👀
ah thanks dude! Yes all on iPhone, which doesn't do a bad job considering the low light.
I am going to take this in to consideration thank you
I love your setup. Ive seen the steelbooks you have for your PlayStation in other videos, and id love to start collecting that. Im just wondering where you buy yours?
I agree it's a tough call to choose one or the other. It really boils down to personal preference and what your room environment is like for lights. I'm leaning towards the LG for the reason of being jack of all features but not the master of all. Thanks for your indepth review as it covered all these monitors' pros and cons.
Hey SpawnPoiint! Great video! I’ve been watching your content quite a lot lately because I have been trying to upgrade my gaming/productivity setup. I’m not sure if you have already but MSI also released a 32inch 4K OLED monitor, and I think it might be worth checking out and doing a review on. I definitely would like to see it. Anyways, great video!
Watching this on the ROG PG32UCDM, absolutely love this monitor.
How bright can the room get before those blacks start raising/looking magenta?
@@thepadster123 Haven’t noticed anything like that. But my room is pretty dim and the monitor is not close to my windows.
@@lirion so in those conditions, blacks look as perfect as say on an oled Phone (assuming you have one) or an lg oled tv?
@@thepadster123 In those conditions I would say yes the blacks are as good as my iPhone 15 Pro Max.
@@lirion cheers man 🙏
Waiting for the comparison with MSI MPG 321URX😊
The LG monitor is just beautiful! This is how these companies should design their monitors. Enough with these hideous, cheap and childish plastic gamer designs!
The LG design really does look great, the same as their TVs.
Yes. Asus need to grow up and follow, rgb trend died.
@@20puskinas1992...the LG has lighting too that is can be changed so they have it as well. It's just not as noticable
Yeah
I like how minimalist and clean the ultragear monitor is
I wish they made it with aluminum and no plastic like Apple monitors
Yeah rgb is way too 2016 now. It looks cringy
2024 OLED- Please make a video or share a link of your personal settings for each monitor!!!
Thank you for the beautiful comparison❤. I was looking for a video comparing glossy and matte in high quality on a new monitors. Now I understand everything. but
How did you do that? Two monitors on only one ps5, and the quality is very excellent
I’m using a 4K HDR splitter so I can duplicate it on two screens 🫡
Waiting on the Gigabyte one later this year !
Any thoughts/future review on the GIGABYTE AORUS FO32U2?
You are simply one of the best reviewers. I enjoy all your videos and how much detail and insight you share. You have inspired me to create my own gaming setup. With that said, the Sony M9, even though costly is the Monitor I have been wanting for a while, however after watching this video you have peaked my interest in an OLED gaming monitor. The prices are crazy but in your opinion are these monitors way better than the Sony M9? Thank you for your help and insight. I greatly appreciate it and you. Nuff respect Spawn Point 💯
Hey spawnpoiint! I am really considering getting the lg monitor… I have the c3 42” oled at the moment but think the size is just a tad too large. you think it’s worth switching?
2024 OLED great video, looking forward of getting the Asus monitor looks great.
I think there is only one condition to compare both oled technologies, the lifespan. The Rtting did a nice job to compare both technology qd- and woled. According review of long burn in test, the qd oled are more prompted to be burn in because lack of white subpixel push the entire subpixel to reproduce white color. I would definitely take woled tech for production work and qd oled for content consumption. And of course glossy panel is a lot crisp in dimmed condition which is preferred by gamers. There are also a lot of users they used their woled's as productivity monitor since lg c2 and the big bunch of them never experienced burn in.
I've been looking for a dual monitor to sit above my Magnus Pro desk (large). I've also been looking for a gaming PC. I've got a budget of £3k. Do you have any recommendations for what purchases I should make? I've only recently got into gaming and am now purchasing a setup. Any ideas for the dual monitor and gaming PC all under about £3k yet very high quality?
Hi Spawn, Thanks for your videos really they very helpful and informative too... may i ask you to review lenovo laptop yoga pro 9i 14" screen. much appreciate it
Great video. Any information on 27" 4k versions? Especially the LG one, I would get one if it would be available in 27". In addition, is the sub-pixel issue fixed?
Nice vid! Do both of then support firmware updates?
Yes, msi is the only ones not offering firmware updates in their lower end oleds
I have the ASUS. Never going to matte coating after having had two glossy OLED. I also use the KVM switch regularly as I work from home.
Is it worth upgrading from the lg c2? I use the lg c2 for story driven games and I use a Sony m9 for any competitive games. I most use the pc with the m9 because of the 144hz and ps5 with lg c2.
Really nice review!! Struggling to pick one as a mainly would use it to work (software dev) and play some PS5 and pc on the weekends. The LG seems nicer but really wish it had the usb-c connection. In case of productivity which one would you go ? Cheers
I love the setup I might make that my setup.
Hello, thank you for your videos they are great, I have a question please, on the LG or even the rog on ps5 once hdr activated are all the contrast brightness settings etc.. are they still available or grey ? because I had the 27 oled which I did not keep because the settings were unavailable and I found the image too dark especially on warzone, this is also the case on the new 4k oled alienware, so before buying the lg I would like know, thank you!
Hey I got a Kogan 27 inch 165hz monitor I went through Fortnite settings PlayStation settings and the monitor settings and the colour is still a bit weird any advice?
2024 OLED. Always loving the content
Thank you 🙏
Nice 2024 OLED comparison. I’d personally pick the ROG because of the warranty for burn in and glossy screen.
After both of them getting compared i think i prefer qd oled i mean both of them are great monitors but i like punchier colours of qd oled and i like qd oled's sub pixel layout more but only think i didn't like about qd oled is coating i love glossy coating but qd oled's coating have worst reflection handling other wise i like qd oled more
Can’t wait for my PG32UCDM on back order! Only 2 weeks left
How ? I haven’t even seen any in stock 😢
Why asus over the the new Alienware curious ?
@@joaquinarchivaldoguzmanloe1073 not curved
@@joaquinarchivaldoguzmanloe1073 Probably the curve (I'm not a big fan either)
Can you please show its compatibility with ipad 12.9 ? (Could it be used comfortably and to the same quality with an Ipad? Scaling issues? Video/photo quality?)
Thanks! Great comparison. Im using the same monitor for my work laptop and my stationary gaming pc so being able to connect them both easily to the same monitor on the ASUS one is huge and will simplify my setup by a great deal. This info was not talked about in other reviews I have watched from other channels....
However I think that matte and black levels seems better on the LG oled so I would pick that If I it was a pure gaming setup.
But the warranty on asus is very helpful since I work from home like 16 hours per week with a very static image. So would probably go for the asus one at this point.
everytime spawnpoiint posts its a banger 😂
ah thanks dude!
@@SpawnPoiint seriously you have fueled and inspired me to build my own setup.
Great video but it would have been great if the black levels were shown at different levels of ambient light.
Good luck getting either one of these as they are rarely in stock for long periods.
I've been looking for a dual monitor to sit above my Magnus Pro (Large) desk, and a gaming PC too. I've got a budget of £2k. Any recommendations for what to purchase?
I personally just got a 42” C3 & I’m loving it!
that’s what I use cheaper and a bigger screen I think it’s the better buy
I tried this TV but I can't stand the glossy panel, especially the white light. But otherwise incredible image, absolute black and phosphorescent HDR color.
I need matte
Idk how people use 42 inch 4k TVs as desktop monitors. It has worse PPI than a 27 inch 1440p monitor.
@@chy.019027 inch 4K is the way to go
@@chy.0190 Yes, but you don't need to sit as close to it due to the size.
Is the purplish colour on Asus monitor when comparing the black levels of both monitors due to the lighting into room? If there it is a dark room, are the blacks same for both? This was not in the videos so I am asking as I use my monitor in dark environments most of the time.
The purple-ish colour comes from light bouncing in and back out so no ambient/direct light, no purple
@@SadGuyLuke Thanks that was important to me, would have changed my decision for sure... I have a dark room when I game so I prefer glossy. Thanks
Wow that was close. LG for me by a whisker
I am thinking of getting the LG monitor, but i am on laptop, would the display port 1.4 provide the fps it claimed on laptop?
I would go for the LG monitor. I've got a glossy LG OLED TV and I have to close my curtains to use it during the day, I don't want to have to close them to use my PC.
Coming from a fast 240hz 1080p monitor do u advice getting the Herman Miller chair or the Oled?
Chair imo
Body more important than frames and response time and picture quality
Iv been hearing about dual mode monitors recently and that they do 240hz 4k and 480hz 1080 BUT what about 1440p? Is it still locked to 240hz at 1440?
I need to find this out since I switch between pc and console and would like to play 1440p x 120hz
Which one to pick is easy. LG C3 42" for $850. That is what I just did and love it! I upgraded/downgraded fro the C1 48".
agree with this just get a deep desk and its all good
I did the same cheaper than 32s
That matte on the LG isnt bad at all compared to older models. Almost didnt notice it till you got closer.
everyone talking about the yellowish on the ROG, I feel that can be adjusted in the picture/contrast settings
I went ahead and bought the ROG, yea it’s just has yellowish color out the box. Adjusted the settings and looks just like the LG . Y’all are dumb lol
Dang, I “neeeeed” that glossiness. Easy decision right there 😆
The colours look so deep on the glossy panel too
@@SpawnPoiint I currently use a 42” C2 but the Pixel density is bothering me at 4K. However I love the perfect blacks that the ROG doesn’t offer. Still sort of a toss up overall.
There's no perfect monitor/TV yet, they are holding out haha
I know it’s not related to your video, but I want to ask: Did you play Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden? If yes, what are your thoughts? Is it worth buying?
Earlyish for once lol, looking forward to this one!
This is really early haha. Thanks too.
Would you be able review the MPG 321URX QD-OLED and do another video comparing them? 2024 OLED
I’ll have a look at grabbing one
Awesome review Bruv. Do you mind if I ask what computer desk you’re using? Looks great and I’m in the market for one right now so kinda like yours which brand?
Thanks dude. I’m using the Secretlab Magnus Pro XL
@@SpawnPoiint Nice but very expensive for a desk.
on the asus are there any issues using mac and pc with thier built in kvm switch?
Hi! What's the light on your wall, to the right of your desk?
2024 OLED! I would choose the LG for the additional 480Hz support on PC. Currently have the new 27GS95QE which uses the new MLA+ 275 nits screen and its been great so far.
I'm literally trying to choose between these 2 monitors currently, but STILL weighing up the differences and what would be better for me. More/better warranty or a matte finish that doesn't show me staring at myself in a daylit room
Haha that’s where I’m at too. Neither are 100% perfect.
32 inch is too small for me do you perhaps know or can tell me if there is a good 42 inch or 38 inch monitor i can buy instead
Nice one
Thanks!
Can you do a review on the MSI MPG 321URX QD-OLED next?
Lg C4 vs G3, which would you recommend?
Now we just need to wait for that PG32UCDP
I already put my kidney for sale just to be ready with the cash when it's out 😂
2024 OLED 💙, i also had a ps5 since 2021 and for my birthday i will be buying spiderman 2 and god of war ragnarock i am so excited!
Nice one, enjoy!
Thanks Man , I Love Your Vids
Just watching the video, whether the racing scenes, Warzone, or TLOU2 footage, it seems the Asus gets more vibrant orange & red colors. When they’re both displaying blues & purples they seem identical but I’m noticing the Asus is more vibrant with warm colors. Curious if a trick of the recording or something you notice in person.
The raised blacks on the QD looks way more significant here than it did in reality for me. maybe just because of direct light on screen? Had a LGC2 and a S95B and in dim or dark rooms they both looks great with dark blacks. But yes, the LG is slightly darker if there is any light. The video just made it look like an LCD, which it doesnt actually look like.
2024 OLED This is the comparison I’ve been waiting for so thanks for covering it… and Awesome video as always Spawnpoiint. Both great monitors but I think the LG wins it for me 💪
Thanks for jumping on early! It's close between the two.
i'm getting my ps5 in july after 3 months of doing chores
I got mine a week ago but played with it for less than an hour cuz I can’t afford the games lol😢
@@petersmith5736destiny 2 and war frame are decent free games
Yeah buy it, then the PS5 pro trailer drops😂😂
2024 OLED great comparison. they're all so good and have strengths and weaknesses depending on personal preference and usage environment, I agree no clear winner. I chose LG but great to have options.
i do prefer the design of the lg, very clean and also looks easy to clean as well :)
Should i get the rog pg34wcdm or pg32ucdm?
Lg for me but I’m waiting for them to release the 27 4K oled. I currently have the 27gs95qe. I love it. Works perfectly with my series x
do you know if a 27 4k oled has been at least announced yet?
@@TheGOATRammus won’t be I’m guessing till late Nxt year
@@colin1992 ah I see, it's a shame because the 4k 32 inch monitors in this video are all sold out. But even If they were in stock, 32 inches is a little to big...
@@TheGOATRammus agreed
I would get the rog because of dolby and gloss display but def didnt know about the raised black levels. Im currently using a c2 42 for my ps5 snd pc. But there is one monitor i would like you to review and thats the new aorus fo32u2 or fo32up which is a 4k 32inch oled as well.
Glossy, usb-c 90w and 3 years warranty covered burnt-in definitely win me over.
I don't think you put enough emphasis on the raised blacks only being in a brightly lit room or direct light. Also didn't asus say they'd be releasing an update with dolby vision or am I remembering wrong 🤔
I’m definitely going for the LG. Mostly because the Rog monitor shows gaming in a very yellowish tint and the LG looks more natural and better in picture quality
YES! I ordered 2 QD-OLED panels (AW2725 and AW3225) and compared it next to my LG 27GR WOLED and the yellow tint was prevalent on both QD-OLED panels. I would opt for the LG personally. It surprises me that there aren't more people noticing and talking about this.
brother you could just adjust the color temperature
@@Zicrixdoesart unfortunately that wasn't an option that I could find when I was using the monitor with my ps5 in hdr.... navigating the menu with that nub was incredible painful as well
@@DuneDaddy you know I'm sorry, I didn't think of the console experience. They should really add an option for that, sorry friend
When will these be available in the UK? Can’t see the LG anywhere
nice video thx for work -- 2024 oled
Appreciate you received both monitors cause of your content is epic @SpawnPoiint but why are both only available in the UK by end of June?
I don't know about others, but I always preferred Glossy screen, I know about reflections, but the color pops more with Glossy panels
Hey spawn what do you wipe your leather magpad down with ? Buying secret labs wipes seem a bit excessive
I just use a microfibre cloth with water. That’s it.
Do you think this would be good for a steam deck? So I could use it with my work computer in 4k, then my steam deck in 1080p?
What Camera did you use to shoot this video?
6:20 I'm so confused. Im looking at the screen and the Blacks on the LG was way better than on the ROG. But how? When the LG if the one with the Matte and the ROG has the Glossy screen. Shouldnt it be the other way around?
No because the ROG has slightly raised blacks (due to QD-OLED reacting to the lighting in the room) which makes the blacks look more grey than jet black. The same happens with the QD-OLED TVs I've tested alongside glossy WOLED TVs.
So....this is the deal:
In well-lit rooms, the black levels on the Asus look bad (as do all qd-oled monitors) because they don't have a 'polariser' layer, which basically means the light in your room causes the screen to sort of 'flare-up' like a fluorescent jacket or something.
In dim rooms where there's low light and none in front of the monitors, the black levels will look great on both monitors. The Asus will look a little better in these conditions because of, as you rightly say, the GLOSSY.
In totally dark rooms with no light, they will look pretty much identical. The matte will have a very slightly more 'painted-on' look because of the matte grain. But they're VERY close.
You have to shine a light on the display
ok, thanks for the explanation guy's. I didnt know the black levels on glossy screens could be affected and appear grey by the lighting in the room. I thought that was only an issue with the matte screens.
@@bandiddid8583 it's not an issue with lg glossy tvs, just tvs and monitors that use qd-oled. It's really frustrating because if lg could just release a monitor that was a mini version of their glossy tvs....that would be PERFECTION.
I have come to prefer the matte screen on the woleds. I like that I don’t see my silhouette on when gaming and the raised blacks on the qd oleds are just more reason to go with the lg. I do have really think that people have blown the whole matte vs glossy oled thing out of proportion.
Indeed, because the coating applied by LG on the OLED display looks clearer than the coating on ordinary displays.
@spawpoiint are you still using your nebula projector mate or have you gotten rid of it/upgraded? I watched your video about 2 years back and was impressed but I’m finally moving now and it’s been a long while since the video. I’m not really sure what’d be the best option right now and there’s so much on the market.
I actually swapped it out for the XGIMI Horizon Pro which I've still got now. It's a great projector and a lot brighter, but it's also a lot more expensive from memory.
@@SpawnPoiintthanks for the reply. I’ll take a look!
@@SpawnPoiint how does this lg oled compare to the 32GQ950? Is the matte coating the same? Is one glossier than the other? I own the GQ950 and love it but I’m tempted to go oled. I tried the qd oled but the raised black bothered me. If you can share any comparison between the 32GQ950 IPs vr this LG oled I’d appreciate it.
