Watching this video from my monitor that can barely be seen haha but great video although I consider that both are very good monitors, I just hope that when I start to build my PC I can get one of these and a Windows that works without problems
Owner of UCDP here and wow I must say after seeing them side by side the colors of the UCDM are just incredible and would honestly make me reconsider the UCDP. But I will say I am really enjoying the monitor as I am a competitive multiplayer gamer ( cod/warzone, overwatch, destiny 2). Having the higher refresh rate is nice but I will give you everyone a fair warning that the image quality doesn’t not look good. In ultra performance mode on and low graphics settings I can push 450-500 fps but the quality is horrendous. I personally don’t mind as you can also just easily change from ultra performance to quality. For me the biggest buying point of the UCDP was the dual mode as I think it’s like having two monitors in one and as hardware progresses I can run 1080p at 480hz while having it it in quality mode which will be nice.
Don't do it. I owned both. I kept the UCDP. It's not worth the loss of 480hz. Also, the reflections on a glossy screen can be super annoying and distracting. No one wants to play games in the dark all the day. Obviously the UCDM is more vibrant and the HDR experience slightly better. Still not worth it for me. I love 480hz and I love the matte finish.
i am using the LG equivalent of the dual mode feature. the LG 32GS95UE. chose that over the asus due to the aesthetics. i play cs2 so i use the FHD 480hz mode. what i did was up the anti aliasing in the in game settings and that will the FHD picture quality to be decent. My eyes are now used to CS2 in FHD on this 32 inch monitor. I adapt pretty fast. Before using this monitor, i was using 1440P on the alienware AW2725DF 360hz monitor. no issues adapting to FHD 480hz with anti aliasing up.
Have you tried Nvidia DSR factors in the control pannel and use DSLDSR? should fix the jaggies in the games but i wouldn't bother unless you havea 4090
Quick question for you, Ive been considering these monitors but for some games I want to be able to drop it from 4k to 1440p. Does it still retain a high refresh rate when you drop it down to 1440p or can you only take it from 4k to 1080?
It is not the matte vs glossy who give a difference in black in light environment. It is specifically the ql-oled panel, the layer of quantum dots emit light to a lower energy of the light who hit them; to avoid this it is necessary put a polarized filter above. However it is not possible to stop all the light from the outside and you will see like if the black is rised up. If you put a matte coat in qd oled (like the Samsung monitor) you improve a bit. However, the WOLED does not need a matte coat to make black look black because they have no emissive quantum dot but common color filter. Therefore is not the coating to make this difference but the technology it-self. As always they will understand the non-sense and later will be released a glossy WOLED who sell way more than the mate due to higher broghtess, dual mode and standard subpixel layout + withe (rwgb) ..
It is very simple: if you have a bright room where you can’t control the light, go with the matte WOLED panel. Otherwise, I would personally go with a glossy panel.
Nah. The 1080p 480hz mode is so underrated. Actually absurd to recommend the other monitor just because of this. It’s not just better for competitive games… it’s way better for roguelikes, old games that don’t have 4k textures anyway, and in games where you’d just prefer to run 1080 anyway since 4k is too demanding. Also I’m speaking from experience- I have the LG Oled version of this and I use the 1080p over half the time and I’m not a huge competitive gamer. You just need to make sure you have the monitor the correct distance away from you for perceived pixel density- I have mine wall mounted which helps with that.
Don’t make decisions based only on reflections. The woled panel is really great, not a classic mate version, have more options/versatility, and text clarity is really improved this year, better than qled. I recommend the LG version, not this ASUS version of the panel, tbf.
Spud! You might have done a disservice to the UCDP here. The uniform brightness, Auto logo brightness, And screen saver are probably on for the UCDP. When I had the UCDM and UCDP side by side with the same oled care settings, the UCDP was brighter in most tests. The UCDP image did not pop as much as the ucdm due to its matte coating. But that is the trade-off for deep blacks and brighter whites in any kind of environment.

I am so grateful for your work in this video, as side-by-side capture, because I have finally seen the downsides, from my perspective on CDM, more like on QD-OLDEs.

HDR on at all times: watching on my PG32UCDM and I dont get any reflection it also has the added bonus of feeling more organic. harking back to crts where you would get this nice feel to old arcade games with scanlines and it works again with this monitor. as for modern gaming its the best imo. but only with hdmi 2.1 and 12 bit. its plenty bright enough also. I was worried about getting just for that, but it turns out using it in true black most of the time is fine for everything. next stage is using 'gaming hdr' and then if that doesnt cut the mustard with a dark game then I use dolby vision in bright and it is more than enough brightness. I just havnt found reflections on mine im in darker room, but even in day time its not bad at all. you using the monitor in front white walls is a bit daft. PG32UCDP is a bit dim for my taste.
after asus launched the new glossy monitor i wanted to compare how much effect it has on view. so i used my old matt lcd and compared it to my s9 ultra with gloss finish. Colors dont matter here on the reflections. Windows are 90° to both monitors 3m away. I have to say as long you got bright images on the glossy screen you wont see much difference but at soon you get some darker pictures you will see everything behind you. it needs to be completly dark and i mean midnight dark around you to not see any reflections/mirroring in the glossy screen. While with the matt coating you wont see anything in daytime and night. That little difference in color is not worth it if you only see your reflection and anything else in the screen.
When you turn off the -uniform brightness -screen saver -auto logo brightness On both panels and they have the same color settings. The ucdp whites and blacks are unmatched. Ucdp gets brighter but not as vibrant and saturated as the ucdm. In this video spud did the ucdp wrong as it appears to be very dimm. In all my testing the ucdp was brighter and kept its black levels better in any environment. That glossy finish of the ucdm is the only thing it has going for it. But it comes at a cost of reflections and raised blacks from the qd panel Ucdp matte on the other hand difuses the lighting and reflection at the cost of slight haziness on a full white background which is slightly noticeable. Productivity use ucdp reigns supreme. The text is clearer. The matte finish is easier on the eyes. Pick your posion boys! Left or right nut
I couldn't agree more. The UCDM looks slightly over saturated and you have to game in the dark fulltime unless you like purplish blacks. I own the UCDP and all I had to do was take it out of the box and be FLOORED by the first games I put on. The blacks are deep and rich and the colors were calibrated at the factory perfectly. I love love love love this monitor. There is zero eyestrain on this monitor. I can game perfectly with a simple 40 watt bulb on the ceiling fan above me and not have it glare on the screen.
I must say this video is so essentially useful for me right now! I am trying to decide between UDCP and UDCM. I am seeing myself leaning towards UDCM though. Thanks to your video, i am better informed too
If the monitor will be used to productivity as well, than don't go with UCDM ( QD-OLED ) at all, they have a huge problem with the burn-in, way more than WOLEDs.
QD-OLED seems to be the clear winner in dark scenes in-game. But in light scenes, like the Forza clips, the QD-OLED seems way too oversaturated. The greys and whites look red-ish. So I'm leaning towards WOLED. Looks a lot more natural to me. I think that white subpixel does wonders for sunlight.
And … if the room is not dark the UCDM displays black with purple tint. It is also not that good for productivity as text is not displayed clear and sharp … a pain when w working on it. Finally color accuracy is poor. The UCDP having the more accurate colors … more natural.
@@GanymedeXD The Purple tint is a problem yes. I've looked a bit more into the colour situation though. Both monitors have very good colour accuracy, just the ucdm is calibrated worse out of the box. The matte coating on the G80SD seems to help a lot with the purple tint, so I'm looking at that one as it's the one of the cheapest in the UK.
@@Glitch315 Yeah the G80SD is nice. Their matte coating does get rid of the purple tint. But I don't know if it's the panel but it likes to go black for a second like it's turning off and on. I've noticed it only does a couple times when it's on a cold start. After you've used it for a little bit then it doesn't do it anymore. This seems to be a common problem. I'm about to return it and get the UCDP mainly because it has optical audio out so I can out to my speakers when I'm playing on my consoles. But I've also read that even that panel has that same issue too.
@@agentorange8530 if you are talking about the Samsung then I had the same problems you had and I couldnt stand the intrusiveness of having to sign into a samsung account to use a monitor. Also I hated having to use a remote to turn it on like a TV and not be able to see what was being displayed during bootup. If I wanted a TV I would have bought a TV. The Samsung was like having a 32 inch TV that can have a computer hooked up to it as an afterthought. I couldnt return it quick enough. I immediately bought the UCDP.
the samsung g80sd is a good compromise, qd-oled with matte screen. I'm going to take this one, beautiful color without reflection, and the coating limits the purple tint that the screen can take on in the light. I play mainly in the dark, but I'm quite sensitive, I like matte better, it's more comfortable for me
No one ever mentions that QD-OLEDs have more eye strain complaints than WOLED. That doesn’t mean you will experience any of that WOLED won’t strain your eyes. Every her is different, but QD has a tendency to cause more issues
My current Acer Predator 32" 4K/60 monitor is crapping out. I'm in the market for a 4K/240 monitor. I'm leaning towards the WOLED since I have a lot of ambient light in my living room, and reflections and raised black levels would annoy me when gaming.
I've had the privilege of trying both displays. Both are very impressive. I do prefer the UCDM as the colors "pop" more, but that is do to me being used to over saturated colors. Either display will serve one well. The text fringing is worse on the UCDP, though.
Already there. Chillblast for UCDP, Scan for UCDM. There’s a waiting list though due to high demand as us gaming plebs in the UK are second grade global gaming citizens compared to the US😂
@@freeekychakra the 'due in stock' date for the UCDP at Chillblast and Scan keeps being pushed back. Chillblast now has no ETA and Scan are showing 16th Nov. So, who knows when customers in the UK will actually receive the PG32UCDP if they do preorder.
@@freeekychakra Yes, I've pre-ordered the PG32UCDP from Scan, but who knows when they will actually receive stock. When I pre-ordered the ETA was 16 Oct but now it's 16th Nov. Chillblast previously had an ETA in Sept but now they have no ETA date. So, it's available pre-order in the UK but it's not actually in stock anywhere.
I own both Woled and QD-oled, Personally I like the QD-oled more cause the colors are more vibrand by comparision and the raise blacks didn't bother me as much, I also found the matte vs Glossy way less noticable then most people. But to be fair its hard to wrong with either and despite their pros and cons when comparing to each other, both are way better then LCD tech.
UCDP is so tempting with the anti-glare tech, but I can't justify extra FPS at 1080p over the colors being less vibrant. I don't game more than casually, if at all, so visuals matter most.
I could do, if you check my reviews of these monitors I do mention the text clarity on both and it’s actually impressive, especially on the UCDP which was very very good for an OLED
Would the dual mode of the UCDP be better for playing games on the Nintendo Switch (which itself is only 1080p)? Or will Switch games look much better on the 4K resolution?
9:40 is it fair to say your camera settings is making the qd oled more blow out in contrast to the woled? It looks to be clipping details where the woled is not in very vibrant colors like this?
Im thinking about buying ucdm and rtx 4090. For now the price of the monitor is little to high in my country so I wait and also new Rtx gen will come so 4090 also drop the prices at the end of the year. I hope ao. Edit: finally i bought g80sd and now hunting for cheap 4090 :p
As I understand this is the proximity sensor used for turning off the monitor when you get away. For this there is a special function in the menu, you can turn it off.
I'm considering buying the UCDM next week with international shipping to South America, but I am worried about burn in, since I wont be able to use the 3 year warranty. Has anyone had issues with it already or dead pixels?
This question makes zero sense … use some common sense … a lot is about individual preferences … and thats down to you. Not everything can be fed pre-chewed for you … you actually need to to work it out yourself … didn’t you get that there is no simple answer to a very complex question? UCDP is more expensive … better for productivity … no blurry, washed out text … more accurate colors, no overly vivid Samsung like colors, with ambient light no purplish blacks. Also dual mode.
I had both monitors side by side, i played wukong and horizon forbidden west to try them, in sdr it was super hard for me to tell a difference but in hdr is where i noticed a difference, ucdm looked brighter and more colorful, this is what i still dont understand, even in your video i can see ucdp looks dimmer, why does it do that if peak brightness is higher on ucdp, i noticed that while testing them, as playing with nvdia control panel color settings, monitor settings i was able to get pretty close to ucdm image, not exactly the same but close to my eyes, so for that reason, i kept ucdp and returned ucdm, plus i heard qd oled blue light is bad for the eyes in the long term. Still wondering why ucdm looks brigjter than ucdp if ucdp has higher peak brightness
This is because the WOLED can only reach a high peak brightness with the color white or with washed out colors due to the white subpixel. The QD-OLED reached that with the three RGB subpixels only. Therefore the color volume, how bright any given color can get is much higher on QD-OLED. It gets brighter in every color except for white and white is not the only bright thing in HDR games.
It's because the colored highlights have a much higher brightness for QD-OLED. WOLEDs brightness numbers are specifically for displaying white so it's somewhat of a marketing trick. It's actually less bright in real HDR scenes for the most part. There are some very in depth tests out there that quantify the exact difference. Personally I went for QD-OLED since I don't have a problem with controlling my lighting conditions and want to get the absolute best possible HDR performance. It wasn't an easy choice though, there are many good arguments for going WOLED too.
@@dfasdfgdsfdf588 yeah, I just heard about how qd oled blue light can cause eye discomfort, maybe long term, vision issues, so I rather sacrifice the colors a little bid but protect my eye vision a little more
Playing with Dolby vision and hdr1000 the qd oled panel jumps up very much in bright highlights and in the more vibrant colors that it is noticeably bright by perception. I experienced this in the Alienware aw3225. People do not test hdr this way though I don’t think in reviews. They just use windows hdr on and do measurements after calibration. I have the p version. I have fomo for the other version. But the Alienware gave me eye fatigue where this one doesn’t. I still may get the other version as it’s in my return window. I think the qd oled version adds more depth do the image where the woled can look flat. Even when vibrancy is turned up. It looks more flat. Not to say bad. But I came from a c2. And do not really notice much difference or improvement.
I had to send mine back PG32UCDM as it kept blinking on and off a believe its a known fault of the proximity sensor in certain models. They will either RMA it or give me a refund do u no if the if later batches have the issue fixed at all.
I compared both. The PG32UCDM blows the PG32UCDP away. The matte display on the PG32UCDP makes it appear like there is a blurry film over the screen, so I returned it. The PG32UCDM is just clear af in comparison.
The UCDP annihilates the UCDM … the only pro you mention are inaccurate fake Samsung like overly vivid colors! So you prefer purple blacks, blurry, non-sharp text, inaccurate horrible colors, a monitor unsuitable for base text based productivity, a monitor almost useless during the day. Well, good choice if you like that!
@GanymedeXD Cope. The only thing blurry is that matte coating. UCDM glossy QD-OLED is perfectly clear ;) it honestly makes the UCDP look cheap in comparison. No purple blacks for me at all with all my lights on in my room. 1080p 480hz is useless aswell. Considering there are now 27" 1440p 480hz monitors. 1080p looks like garbage on a 32 inch 4k display. It's a shame that it appears as though you are having to act defensive over your purchase of the UCDP. Good thing I have the luxury of doing a personal unbiased irl comparison of the two, to see for myself. Instead of listening to a drone like you. Glossy QD-OLED reigns supreme.
@@Jakevil The purple black only shows up if it's bright in your room or if a light is reflecting off it. So you definitely have the purple black issue. It's baked into the QD OLED panels unless you put a matte screen over it like the Samsung.
@agentorange8530 No, It's not an issue for me that I notice. Then again, I don't have an open window or lights glaring at it & I prefer dim lighting/playing in the dark.
Ucdm has unbearable flickering. Tabbing in and out of games is flawless and smooth and doesnt give me a black screen delay. Ucdp anti oled feature doesnt allow me to use vrr and g sync. Tabbing out of games has a 5t7 black screen delay. Tabbing back into the game is instant. I've tried hdmi 2.1 and dp 1.4 for these tests. Can you plz check if you have these issues as well? Should i exchanhe my ucdp for another one? 14900k 4090 1200 plat psu. Plz advise for any fixes. Thank you!
@@vencler The ucdm was fine and didn't have that issue. The xgaqdmg was also just as fast and didn't have that issue. The ucdm had firmware 105 and was certified g sync Ucdp isn't currently g sync certified and has 103 firmware. Should I exchange? Or wait for an update?
UCDP best OLED monitor by a long way. Plus UCDP has x4 less input lag 1080p480. Have you calibrated the UCDP? Edit: I’m likely returning the UCDP, the haze/grainy/dusty looking coating of any text on a white background during the daytime is too much. My eyes feel more blurry. While darker backgrounds look ok, any browsing or work isn’t possible on the UCDP for me personally. I’ll either put up with the UCDP or wait for the XG27AQDMG. I don’t like the redish/purple hue the UCDM has on all white backgrounds. Also, 1080p480 is so blurred it should be made redundant.
@@cuzr702 I'm with you. same with the greys. The asphalt on the Forza scenes look red-ish. I'm wondering if when people say "QD-OLED has better colors" they really just mean they like the exxagerated vibrancy they produce. To me the WOLED looks a lot more natural. Although. I had a look at RTINGS. The UCDM has pretty poor factory calibration compared to the UCDP. But after calibration the QD-OLED has very slightly better color accuracy. But that's just colors. The greys and whites still look wrong to me. It could also be the ambient light in the video causing the purple tint on the QD-OLED which could be affecting the colors.
I prefer matte finish on my OLED monitor because I also have lights (and an OLED TV) behind me. The reflections and raised blacks became distracting ngl
Agreed I bought oled for true black so woled is a way to go yeah there is some con for color in hdr but if you really really want the real good hdr I suggest go for oled tv at this point their technology is just so much better for picture quality
the terrible calibration and EOTF tracking of the WOLED monitors right now make me avoid it and really sad :( plus I hate matte coatings, make it look so grainy, and it feel slike the monitor is dusty/dirty and i get rainbowing on white. waiting for the LG C5 42" or maybe i'll give up and grab a c4 but i returned mine because of awful flicker in some apps. HDR on the pg32ucdm is very dissapointing.
I didn't like the matte coating of the UCDP either. I now have the G80SD and it's much better. However, I'm still not entirely happy with the HDR brightness of these OLED monitors. I might just get a Mini LED at some point.
@@User-ys7cb i'm waiting for the LG C5. the LG C4 wasn't on the same level as mini led brightness wise but was good enough for me to really enjoy HDR :)

after asus launched the new glossy monitor i wanted to compare how much effect it has on view. so i used my old matt lcd and compared it to my s9 ultra with gloss finish. Colors dont matter here on the reflections. Windows are 90° to both monitors 3m away. I have to say as long you got bright images on the glossy screen you wont see much difference but at soon you get some darker pictures you will see everything behind you. it needs to be completly dark and i mean midnight dark around you to not see any reflections/mirroring in the glossy screen. While with the matt coating you wont see anything in daytime and night. That little difference in color is not worth it if you only see your reflection and anything else in the screen.
When you turn off the
-uniform brightness
-screen saver
-auto logo brightness
On both panels and they have the same color settings.
The ucdp whites and blacks are unmatched. Ucdp gets brighter but not as vibrant and saturated as the ucdm.
In this video spud did the ucdp wrong as it appears to be very dimm.
In all my testing the ucdp was brighter and kept its black levels better in any environment.
That glossy finish of the ucdm is the only thing it has going for it.
But it comes at a cost of reflections and raised blacks from the qd panel
Ucdp matte on the other hand difuses the lighting and reflection at the cost of slight haziness on a full white background which is slightly noticeable.
Productivity use ucdp reigns supreme.
The text is clearer.
The matte finish is easier on the eyes.
Pick your posion boys!
Left or right nut
I couldn't agree more. The UCDM looks slightly over saturated and you have to game in the dark fulltime unless you like purplish blacks. I own the UCDP and all I had to do was take it out of the box and be FLOORED by the first games I put on. The blacks are deep and rich and the colors were calibrated at the factory perfectly. I love love love love this monitor. There is zero eyestrain on this monitor. I can game perfectly with a simple 40 watt bulb on the ceiling fan above me and not have it glare on the screen.
I have a glossy WOLED and im very happy with it
What monitor is that?
Which one?

Im also using that monitor

And glossy? Eww.
@@rafatorr407 ASUS XG27AQDMG
The qd looks too saturated and too warm. Spiderman looks like a red light. The woled looks more natural
I must say this video is so essentially useful for me right now! I am trying to decide between UDCP and UDCM. I am seeing myself leaning towards UDCM though. Thanks to your video, i am better informed too
Same bro. What did you decide in the end?
If the monitor will be used to productivity as well, than don't go with UCDM ( QD-OLED ) at all, they have a huge problem with the burn-in, way more than WOLEDs.
I had to choose between the two and chose the PG32UCDM.
Why
Quality videos mate. Keep up the great work!
I've been looking forward to this video, and I must say that I lean more towards the one on the left personally
QD-OLED seems to be the clear winner in dark scenes in-game. But in light scenes, like the Forza clips, the QD-OLED seems way too oversaturated. The greys and whites look red-ish.
So I'm leaning towards WOLED. Looks a lot more natural to me. I think that white subpixel does wonders for sunlight.
And … if the room is not dark the UCDM displays black with purple tint. It is also not that good for productivity as text is not displayed clear and sharp … a pain when w working on it. Finally color accuracy is poor. The UCDP having the more accurate colors … more natural.
@@GanymedeXD The Purple tint is a problem yes. I've looked a bit more into the colour situation though. Both monitors have very good colour accuracy, just the ucdm is calibrated worse out of the box.
The matte coating on the G80SD seems to help a lot with the purple tint, so I'm looking at that one as it's the one of the cheapest in the UK.
@@Glitch315 Yeah the G80SD is nice. Their matte coating does get rid of the purple tint. But I don't know if it's the panel but it likes to go black for a second like it's turning off and on. I've noticed it only does a couple times when it's on a cold start. After you've used it for a little bit then it doesn't do it anymore. This seems to be a common problem. I'm about to return it and get the UCDP mainly because it has optical audio out so I can out to my speakers when I'm playing on my consoles. But I've also read that even that panel has that same issue too.
@agentorange8530 funny timing on your reply there. I literally Just ordered myself a G80SD : )
@@agentorange8530 if you are talking about the Samsung then I had the same problems you had and I couldnt stand the intrusiveness of having to sign into a samsung account to use a monitor. Also I hated having to use a remote to turn it on like a TV and not be able to see what was being displayed during bootup. If I wanted a TV I would have bought a TV. The Samsung was like having a 32 inch TV that can have a computer hooked up to it as an afterthought. I couldnt return it quick enough. I immediately bought the UCDP.
Brown streets on the ucdm 😮 i think the udcp looks more natural. But I would take both😅
the samsung g80sd is a good compromise, qd-oled with matte screen. I'm going to take this one, beautiful color without reflection, and the coating limits the purple tint that the screen can take on in the light. I play mainly in the dark, but I'm quite sensitive, I like matte better, it's more comfortable for me
No one ever mentions that QD-OLEDs have more eye strain complaints than WOLED. That doesn’t mean you will experience any of that WOLED won’t strain your eyes. Every her is different, but QD has a tendency to cause more issues
My current Acer Predator 32" 4K/60 monitor is crapping out. I'm in the market for a 4K/240 monitor. I'm leaning towards the WOLED since I have a lot of ambient light in my living room, and reflections and raised black levels would annoy me when gaming.
I've had the privilege of trying both displays. Both are very impressive. I do prefer the UCDM as the colors "pop" more, but that is do to me being used to over saturated colors. Either display will serve one well. The text fringing is worse on the UCDP, though.
Please tell Asus to hurry up and release the PG32UCDP in the UK.
Already there.
Chillblast for UCDP, Scan for UCDM. There’s a waiting list though due to high demand as us gaming plebs in the UK are second grade global gaming citizens compared to the US😂
@@freeekychakra the 'due in stock' date for the UCDP at Chillblast and Scan keeps being pushed back. Chillblast now has no ETA and Scan are showing 16th Nov.
So, who knows when customers in the UK will actually receive the PG32UCDP if they do preorder.
@@freeekychakra Yes, I've pre-ordered the PG32UCDP from Scan, but who knows when they will actually receive stock. When I pre-ordered the ETA was 16 Oct but now it's 16th Nov. Chillblast previously had an ETA in Sept but now they have no ETA date.
So, it's available pre-order in the UK but it's not actually in stock anywhere.
@@freeekychakra yes, but who knows when it'll actually be in stock. The ETA date keeps being pushed back later and later.
Yeah these are essentially vaporware such is the absence of ability to actually buy any
I own both Woled and QD-oled, Personally I like the QD-oled more cause the colors are more vibrand by comparision and the raise blacks didn't bother me as much, I also found the matte vs Glossy way less noticable then most people. But to be fair its hard to wrong with either and despite their pros and cons when comparing to each other, both are way better then LCD tech.

UCDP is so tempting with the anti-glare tech, but I can't justify extra FPS at 1080p over the colors being less vibrant. I don't game more than casually, if at all, so visuals matter most.
Since you already test both of this monitors i hope you can review the Pg27aqdp 🙏

Slight difference in colors is nothing if nothing to compare to. But mirror reflections will be visible all the time.

Indeed! I had the first gen lg oled 2k one, the text is barely readable

I will just wait for qdwoled
best comment on this video.
Colors looks almost fake on the one on the left. It's brighter, but not as realistic looking too me.
Would the dual mode of the UCDP be better for playing games on the Nintendo Switch (which itself is only 1080p)? Or will Switch games look much better on the 4K resolution?
The switch can even do 60fps most of the time. It would be a waste of money to get one of these monitors just for a Switch
Glossy all day
No way am I choosing Woled over that QD pop lol. 480hz is irrelevant
Ucdm is just more brighter in game scenes 8:56
qd oled looks so much better ...woled just looked abit washed out in colours
It is not true that QLED is better in color and depth. Perhaps you are accustomed to IPS colors, so you chose OLED.
I'll take my pg32ucdm any day of the week.
WHATS YOUR SETTINGS UCDM‼️
I have the monitor and I use scenery but what is your it looks perfect
Samsung qd oled seems much more vibrant and saturated. If you increase saturation on woled, does it come close to qdoled?
No. Qd-oleds advantage is far better color volume, this means colors will retain saturation better (HDR colors are more accurate).
nope they should look about the same if correctly setup.
It does, but nobody talks about it, and more than that, no one says anything about how huge problem burn-in is on QD-OLEDs than WOLED...
@@RaduPNT brainrot
Is it possible to play games at an 2k resolution instead of 4k? Because while gaming on 4k its really hard to get some good fps in heavier games.
PG32UCDP is gorgeous.
Can’t eait to put my hands on it!
9:40 is it fair to say your camera settings is making the qd oled more blow out in contrast to the woled? It looks to be clipping details where the woled is not in very vibrant colors like this?
Bruh, he’s not gonna pin you💀
I'm gonna return the UCDP for the UCDM. If im paying top dollars for OLED I what my colors to POP!!

Can either of these monitors display the screen in 27” without dropping to 1080p? I hate playing fps games with a 32”.
I'm gonna wait for the Philips 32 inch 4k 240 hz since it's in white
Im thinking about buying ucdm and rtx 4090. For now the price of the monitor is little to high in my country so I wait and also new Rtx gen will come so 4090 also drop the prices at the end of the year. I hope ao. Edit: finally i bought g80sd and now hunting for cheap 4090 :p
Gran Tursimo 7 loks so colourful & punchy. My UCDM looks so washed (I play on PS5) & HDR looks dull as I can't calibrate HDR. Any advice?
Can you show an example where the darkness/brightness on the UCDP is better than the UCDM?
never
What is a sensor beneath the monitor? And what if it would be covered?
As I understand this is the proximity sensor used for turning off the monitor when you get away. For this there is a special function in the menu, you can turn it off.
Still waiting on someone to show to contrast of a cursor on a black screen. I wanna see the ghosting or lack there of
I'm considering buying the UCDM next week with international shipping to South America, but I am worried about burn in, since I wont be able to use the 3 year warranty.
Has anyone had issues with it already or dead pixels?
My simple question which one is better UCDP or UCDM ?
This question makes zero sense … use some common sense … a lot is about individual preferences … and thats down to you. Not everything can be fed pre-chewed for you … you actually need to to work it out yourself … didn’t you get that there is no simple answer to a very complex question? UCDP is more expensive … better for productivity … no blurry, washed out text … more accurate colors, no overly vivid Samsung like colors, with ambient light no purplish blacks. Also dual mode.
I had both monitors side by side, i played wukong and horizon forbidden west to try them, in sdr it was super hard for me to tell a difference but in hdr is where i noticed a difference, ucdm looked brighter and more colorful, this is what i still dont understand, even in your video i can see ucdp looks dimmer, why does it do that if peak brightness is higher on ucdp, i noticed that while testing them, as playing with nvdia control panel color settings, monitor settings i was able to get pretty close to ucdm image, not exactly the same but close to my eyes, so for that reason, i kept ucdp and returned ucdm, plus i heard qd oled blue light is bad for the eyes in the long term.
Still wondering why ucdm looks brigjter than ucdp if ucdp has higher peak brightness
This is because the WOLED can only reach a high peak brightness with the color white or with washed out colors due to the white subpixel. The QD-OLED reached that with the three RGB subpixels only. Therefore the color volume, how bright any given color can get is much higher on QD-OLED. It gets brighter in every color except for white and white is not the only bright thing in HDR games.
It's because the colored highlights have a much higher brightness for QD-OLED. WOLEDs brightness numbers are specifically for displaying white so it's somewhat of a marketing trick. It's actually less bright in real HDR scenes for the most part. There are some very in depth tests out there that quantify the exact difference. Personally I went for QD-OLED since I don't have a problem with controlling my lighting conditions and want to get the absolute best possible HDR performance. It wasn't an easy choice though, there are many good arguments for going WOLED too.
@@dfasdfgdsfdf588 yeah, I just heard about how qd oled blue light can cause eye discomfort, maybe long term, vision issues, so I rather sacrifice the colors a little bid but protect my eye vision a little more
Playing with Dolby vision and hdr1000 the qd oled panel jumps up very much in bright highlights and in the more vibrant colors that it is noticeably bright by perception. I experienced this in the Alienware aw3225. People do not test hdr this way though I don’t think in reviews. They just use windows hdr on and do measurements after calibration. I have the p version. I have fomo for the other version. But the Alienware gave me eye fatigue where this one doesn’t. I still may get the other version as it’s in my return window. I think the qd oled version adds more depth do the image where the woled can look flat. Even when vibrancy is turned up. It looks more flat. Not to say bad. But I came from a c2. And do not really notice much difference or improvement.
Good try lying, hdr is ALWAYS darker and more washed out. Also if you think ANY monitor is bad for your eyes lay off the drugs
I had to send mine back PG32UCDM as it kept blinking on and off a believe its a known fault of the proximity sensor in certain models. They will either RMA it or give me a refund do u no if the if later batches have the issue fixed at all.
Have you ever gotten a stuck bright white pixel on the Asus rig swift PG32UCDP that goes away after you run a pixel cleaning?
When do you think it'll drop to $1000?
Black Friday
Should I use the hdmi or the dp cable?
U use sRGB or WIDE GAMUT for UCDM ?
My room is dark no light
I bought one for my xbox x. Will it work well for me?
I compared both. The PG32UCDM blows the PG32UCDP away.
The matte display on the PG32UCDP makes it appear like there is a blurry film over the screen, so I returned it.
The PG32UCDM is just clear af in comparison.
The UCDP annihilates the UCDM … the only pro you mention are inaccurate fake Samsung like overly vivid colors!
So you prefer purple blacks, blurry, non-sharp text, inaccurate horrible colors, a monitor unsuitable for base text based productivity, a monitor almost useless during the day. Well, good choice if you like that!
@GanymedeXD Cope. The only thing blurry is that matte coating. UCDM glossy QD-OLED is perfectly clear ;) it honestly makes the UCDP look cheap in comparison.
No purple blacks for me at all with all my lights on in my room.
1080p 480hz is useless aswell. Considering there are now 27" 1440p 480hz monitors.
1080p looks like garbage on a 32 inch 4k display.
It's a shame that it appears as though you are having to act defensive over your purchase of the UCDP. Good thing I have the luxury of doing a personal unbiased irl comparison of the two, to see for myself.
Instead of listening to a drone like you.
Glossy QD-OLED reigns supreme.
@@Jakevil”No purple blacks lights on” Stop the cap… I have both monitors and the UCDM is just horrible with the lights on
@@Jakevil The purple black only shows up if it's bright in your room or if a light is reflecting off it. So you definitely have the purple black issue. It's baked into the QD OLED panels unless you put a matte screen over it like the Samsung.
@agentorange8530 No, It's not an issue for me that I notice. Then again, I don't have an open window or lights glaring at it & I prefer dim lighting/playing in the dark.
Ucdm has unbearable flickering.
Tabbing in and out of games is flawless and smooth and doesnt give me a black screen delay.

UCDP best OLED monitor by a long way. Plus UCDP has x4 less input lag 1080p480.
Have you calibrated the UCDP?
Edit: I’m likely returning the UCDP, the haze/grainy/dusty looking coating of any text on a white background during the daytime is too much. My eyes feel more blurry. While darker backgrounds look ok, any browsing or work isn’t possible on the UCDP for me personally.
I’ll either put up with the UCDP or wait for the XG27AQDMG. I don’t like the redish/purple hue the UCDM has on all white backgrounds.
Also, 1080p480 is so blurred it should be made redundant.

Colors on QD-OLED are so much better
Why do the whites not look white on the qd-oled?
@@A__822 look at the whites in the video.
@@cuzr702 I'm with you. same with the greys. The asphalt on the Forza scenes look red-ish. I'm wondering if when people say "QD-OLED has better colors" they really just mean they like the exxagerated vibrancy they produce. To me the WOLED looks a lot more natural.
Although. I had a look at RTINGS. The UCDM has pretty poor factory calibration compared to the UCDP. But after calibration the QD-OLED has very slightly better color accuracy. But that's just colors. The greys and whites still look wrong to me.
It could also be the ambient light in the video causing the purple tint on the QD-OLED which could be affecting the colors.
Do they both have headphone jacks?
I prefer matte finish on my OLED monitor because I also have lights (and an OLED TV) behind me. The reflections and raised blacks became distracting ngl
