Win One Here: **Closes at 10PM GMT TODAY**: gleam.io/Q2EJK/upgrade-to-oled-gaming-setup-with-lg-ultragear What do you think about this screen? Anything they could do to improve the next gen?!
Loving it as a 27inch but ... that for me, that cost is way too high at $700. If you think about the desktop kit price with graphics cards at the same price, you're down way over a grand just to play a £45 game! This feels like a monitor for a certain audience and not for the general market.
Great video as always - I really need a monitor that matches the clarity of my MacBook Pro screen and playing with a PS5 - would you recommend this one? What other would you recommend?
I’m two years into using my LG C2 several hours per day, and have no burn in or panel degradation. I used to avoid OLED because of that fear but it has been a total non issue
Recommend the asus one, it gets brighter in hdr with probably better accuracy, and has kvm. Only go for lg if you really use the speakers or can’t vesa mount the asus for whatever reason
Im searching for a 4K monitor for productivity but I want it to have high refresh rate if possible This one is great but it’s OLED so I’m afraid of burn in .. I’ll use it for music production
I’ve genuinely struggled to find people who have suffered burn in with a modern OLED. Yes, plenty of people will come out online to say they had it, but the majority of users just happily use them at home without coming onto UA-cam / Reddit to say how happy they are 🤪 If you’re in a music studio where it’s ONLY used for production then enable the pixel shifting features, play some videos on it from time to time and don’t leave it on overnight - I’d hazard a guess that you’ll be just fine
Hey, nice review! One question: how did you connect your Mac with the monitor? Is it just HDMI 2.1 or DP Cable? Asking because i read about refresh rate issues (only 30 hz) when connected with HDMI. Planning to use the monitor for productivity work on a M1 Pro Mac.
I’m redoing my setup and I had my heart set on the secret labs magnus pro, with the secret labs monitor arm and also possibly this monitor. Could you link what I would need to make sure this monitor fits on the arm? Thanks in advance
Hey there! Amazing analysis! I have a Caldigit TS3 Plus dock and this monitor. I use it as an extended screen for my Macbook 14" M1 Pro. Do you get those referesh rates through display port with the Caldigit Dock? The most I get is 120hz with HDR off, or 60hz with HDR on. And to get that I also had to mess with the Display Port settings, and disable the DSC, because the most I was getting was 94hz. Did you ever tried to use it as an extended screen? Do you think my incompatibility problems may be from my first gen M1 Pro? I always thought it was because of the dock, and I was thinking of upgrading to Caldigit TS4 because of that.
I bought this monitor a few days ago. I wish I had known my 1080 Ti can’t support 4K 240hz or 1080p 480hz 🥲 well. Now I know to save up for a 4090 and a new PSU ugh.
hi dump question, i bought the monitor using laptop, not getting 4k at all, i know maybe the graphic card may not support 4k, but I was told if i connect hdmi to usbc adapter, my laptop support 5K, how can i tell and see my referesh rate, HS and 4K resolution on the monitor
I have a question, and I don't think anyone is talking about it but the 'color temperature control' setting in AMD's gpu software is on by default and completely ruins colors from what i can tell (even with custom color disabled (need to toggle 'custom color' to enabled then disable 'color temperature control'). Turning this off appears to fix washed out hdr and looks way more realistic. And even in SDR mode, it fixes colors in a completely opposite way, colors looked really oversaturated to me when windows is in sdr mode until i disabled this setting. Someone here know about this? Has anyone tested this setting? This has been my experience with the 32gs95ue but could be just a windows+amd gpu thing?
Pete - Sorry for comment not related to this video. I was watching your video about downgrading to s23 by trading in another phone, and getting the s23 for £349.. You say "astounding" price.. I say you need to revise maths... a lot.. Matt - when you trade in, you still paid money to samsung via different means. YOU PAID EXACTLY SAME FULL PRICE.
@@Dukesofwhat I have the asus version of this monitor my setup is a 4090 /7950x3d On low setting with dlss performance I can push 450-500fps but the game looks pretty bad. Personally idc bout the looks so much but you can definitely get 360hz with decent graphics settings if you care bout that
Thanks man, that's good to know. I'm actually going to test it this week and update this in the description! Something else to add to all my future reviews! Always trying to improve on the videos we make here.
Your experiance is watching movies and your son's 8 hour gaming sessions per day are meaningless numbers for degradation of a panel numbers. Try working 8 hours a day before the screen with something like Blender then we'll talk about your great experiance with oled monitors over a couple years.
Purchased 2 on the weekend for 999 euro each. Will use them with the foundrys nuke for vfx work. I am not scared because of burn in. I will calibrate them. I think it will be awesome:D its maybe not perfect but if i have them i might give you feedback with productivity tasks. If they survive 😅

Excellent review. I really want a monitor this size and this was very helpful.
Great to hear! Thank you for watching, and for leaving a lovely comment! Glad it helped 🙂
Great review! Very comprehensive
Thanks man! Cheers for sticking around :)

Have we just re-invented the Turbo button from 90s PCs and put them in Monitors?
Yes :D
🤣 basically!
Yes

I am totally going to upgrade to this bad boy this Christmas :)

Very nice! What games do you play and what sort of pc?
The ASUS PG32UCDM is better unless you really need 480hz at 1080p for some odd reason..
@@drunkhusband6257 is competitive shooter a good enough reason?

@@PeteMatheson Alright thanks 🙏
there is a 2 year burn in warranty FYI

Very welcome bud! Yeah I just hooked up via HDMI directly, no issues with refresh rate that I've seen at all.
Lol, loved the monitor arm fail. Hilarious 😂
Yeah, oopsie, lol

What are the measurements of the monitor support?
Do you recommend the LG 27 OLED 240 or this monitor?
The 1080p image will still look better/sharper than my 1080p Image on a 8 year old Benq 24 inch isnt it ?
Would you do the 32 inch over the 27 ?
Will someone please let me know when they make this in 5k 38" 21:9? Patiently waiting.
I think we're all waiting for that - or the 45" version :)
I bought this monitor a few days ago. I wish I had known my 1080 Ti can’t support 4K 240hz or 1080p 480hz 🥲 well. Now I know to save up for a 4090 and a new PSU ugh.
Can't support as in won't reach enough FPS or literally not outputting to it?
bro bought a 4k monitor for a 1080ti lol, even if it was 60hz you'd barely get that much fps with that gpu
hi dump question, i bought the monitor using laptop, not getting 4k at all, i know maybe the graphic card may not support 4k, but I was told if i connect hdmi to usbc adapter, my laptop support 5K, how can i tell and see my referesh rate, HS and 4K resolution on the monitor
when monitor in portrait mode the 4k resolution disappears, reverts back to standard resolution
I like you have a 49" ultrawide but I want this monitor so bad
Yeah it's a great screen.
57" oled is my dream!

why LG dont try this resolution on the 45 inch size .........

has anyone tried enabling DSR factors in the NVidia control panel to upscale 2k or 4k at 480 hz???
Link to monitor arm no worky :(
But they don’t have pixel burn warranty when asus has
But speaking of a style LG is much better :(
Problem with mac really is the UI scaling which will be absolute garbage unless you use something like BetterDisplay...
My dude can't decide what monitor he wants to stick with. That being said I think the PG32UCDM is an overall better monitor than this dual mode one.
GIVE ME GLOSSY!!!!
Two years of burn-in warranty is a shame. And missing the KVM switch and USB c PD is so a big disappointment
If someone buys this monitor they’re probably wanting to utilize the refresh rate. I’d do low settings in COD next time.
@@Dukesofwhat yeah, I was hoping to see competitive settings tested
@@Dukesofwhat I have the asus version of this monitor my setup is a 4090 /7950x3d
On low setting with dlss performance I can push 450-500fps but the game looks pretty bad. Personally idc bout the looks so much but you can definitely get 360hz with decent graphics settings if you care bout that

they will definitely burn in in a matter of 1 or 2 years but there is burn in warranty
Matte coating 🤮
