The upcoming 1440p 480Hz W-OLED from LG / Asus is going to be even better than this, but more expensive.
And as always, expect to see this 360Hz panel on a range of different branded monitors so take your pick.
it will be matte, that means it will be garbo
@@shanksisnoteventhatstrongbruh matte is not that bad. Im using a samsung matte monitor (IPS LCD, 240HZ, 1440P) and not looks clean af.
W-OLED better?
@@shanksisnoteventhatstrongbruhno , its actually glossy
I heard asus 1440p 480hz oled monitor has glossy screen

It's crazy that all of the sudden we're finally getting these super high quality monitors, we had a heavily saturated market with 360Hertz and 1080p but these 1440p OLED and 240/360/480 is just so crazy to me
The best part is, the last gen OLED monitors will now get a price drop hehehe
@@riichobamin7612and non-OLED will become dirt cheap
@@riichobamin7612 yessirr, can't wait to get the LG OLED or sum like it
@@Ominous784 me too woohoo !
It's crazy that we are ACTUALLY seeing year to year advancements in monitor tech. FINALLY we are observing progress again. Last 5 - 8 years it was really cumbersome and slow. All very incremental improvements. 75-100-120-144-165-180-200-240... And they all had huge issues with artefacting/overshooting/incredibly slow pixel response.
But finally we are observing some insane advancements. Insane motion clarity, pixel response (literally no overshoot/artefact). Year to year advancement in refresh rate (240/360/480...).
Also HUUUGE range of display variants. 27-32-34... ultra wides/ super ultra wides...
And we have 2 competing OLED technologies... WRGB and QD-OLED and both kick ass. AND THEY'RE NOT OVERLY EXPENSIVE!
Man i'm finally getting excited over monitor techs.
The sad part is that the text issue is only on Windows and they COULD fix it on OLEDs and other panel types, but they don’t care enough to do it
I read a while back, that if you deactivate windows clear type it becomes much better. Clear type optimizes for a specific pixel layout which results in worse than standard text with OLED
I think it is also on mac.. 1440p on Mac doesnt look super sharp to begin with. But let me know if you have any sources that state the contrary.
@@tr4nnel752 Completely incorrect. Not an issue on Mac.
@@Techfanatic73 That is just bs. Mac has the same issues with text clarity on 1440p. If you have a 4k oled panel, the issue isn't as noticable, both on Mac and Windows.
The problem on windows is that individual applications are able to do their own layout engine (idk what the name is), so even if Microsoft were to make windows better at handling non-standard pixel layouts, you can still run into issues with programs like chrome, photoshop etc. It would be a step in the right direction though.
Your videos are informative, comforting and inspiring. This is one of my favorite UA-cam channels lately, also love your transparency and effort when measuring performance and specs. Keep doing what you are doing! Also please do another setup review, those are lots of fun.
Getting extremely excited to see you reach 1m subs! Well deserved and this video is just another example of the premium quality you put out.
Best tech channel on the platform for me, hands down.
I love your content and the production value and explanations are just above everyone else in my book.
And thank you for not being obnoxiously over the top and just being calm and down to Earth. It makes for a much better better watching experience.
Hello guys, if anyone's wondering why the glossy msi coating didn't look much that better than asus's matte coating it's because ambient light inadvertedly activates the qdcc layer inside the qd oled panel due to the lack of polarizer, so the black level is raised quite a bit more compared to the woled. There's an awesome video from tftcentral if you guys want to know more.
Link?
@@Mechanomaly-NB It's the one about the oled black depth.
so msi is bad?
@@kakashi99908Not at all what the comment suggested. Any qd-oled gets considerably raised blacks when in a bright environment, but besides I don't think oleds are well-suited for a bright setup anyway.
@@kakashi99908 all qd-oled are bad for gaming unless you can spare cash, they get burned in faster and the black isn't that dark, so get the woled if you are short in cash.
The black is grey because Samsung doesn't have a polarizer layer in them(LG do). Same story with last years Samsung qd-oled panels (alienware aw3423dw for example) and with this latest gen panel too, already confirmed by HUB.
if there is light shining on the monitor, yes, otherwise it is black. Source: I own aw3423dw
im with @@userblame632 i own the g8 oled and have perfect inky blacks
It's not the polarizer, the quantum dot layer it's on top and they absorb light and shine, a little like those construction vests.
1440p
360hz
OLED
literally my dream monitor
Mine too, if warranty checks out because ultimately it's still OLED and if you intend to realistically use the 360hz most of the time, it means you are playing multiplayer FPS games with HUD (CS2/Valorant/OW2 etc.) for multiple hours a day, and HUD is very likely to cause a burn-in. He mentions how he played Overwatch for 600 hours and no burn-in so far, but if you want to play, let's say, 4 hours a day, 600 hours is not even half a year, it's kind of meaningless.
With Alienware's 3-year warranty it's decent, but it's still quite expensive compared to LCDs as most people wouldn't want to replace their ~$1000 product within 3 years. It's a sick product, but it's still quite premium. But if you have money and aren't bothered with replacements via warranty it's godlike for sure.
@@TheCabIe I have just bought this screen due to the reviews. The burn-in issue today is not a worry. I have had three OLED TVs since the 4K tech has been around. My LG B7 was stunning. But suffered from really bad burn-in. The Panasonic HZ1000 had no problems at all. I have that TV running still. With family on you tube and icons on TV channels, its 5 years old now and no burn-in to be seen. I then bought and still have an LG G2 WOLED. Two years old now, and no issues. Xbox SX and PS5 have not harmed this screen. It's due to the extra pixel they have added. There were 3 colours but now there is 4. Plus, an heatsink on the panel. Burn-in on OLED TV's is not like on and old CRT. It just a pixel being driven harder than the others. Red and yellow OLED colour was a massive problem. The colour is harder to drive. But with the extra white pixel, the problem is now mute. LG give a 5-year warranty on its TV panels. Don't worry about burn-in. Watch HDTV Test. Vincent put a 50% white square in HDR and leaves it for 4 hours. It marks the screen with image retention, but he runs the pixel cleaner, and it goes. Enjoy your OLED screens. BTW on my G2 TV I also have logo dimming turned off. No problems after nearly two years.
I've seen the coverage elsewhere but I always look forward to your videos because I get an actual gamer's viewpoint. Great stuff!
If they nail Black Frame Insertion @ 50% refresh on the new 480hz WOLED panels, they'll be the way to go for supreme motion clarity.
This is what I need!
After watching your video about the ASUS OLED I bought it and I have been playing on it for quite some time and I gotta say that I am still amazed about colours and Visuals. Especially in Esport games ur game just feels really clear
I bought an AW3423DWF a few months ago and it's totally blown my mind. It was my first real premium monitor. I didn't realize how good HDR was and combined with OLED and ultrawide, it's such an insanely huge overall system upgrade.
Be ready for it to burn in just a few days after warranty is overdue
@@SG-tx1fzburn in schmurn in, OLED is established tech at this point, not something you need to worry about

The year of OLED
Now all we need is a 24 inch 1080p OLEDs for the masses and LCDs will be officially dead
Well it stagnated so badly for years now... Bout time finally
I like how the video starts, straight to the point.
This looks super good, great content as always brother
the fact that we can have it all. QD-OLED colors, ULMB2 like motion clarity. 360Hz optimal refresh rate for a bunch of games.
Glossy coating for more sensitive matte users. It’s just ENDGAME in really every way.
Been waiting for your take on these 🙏
Showing comparisons side-by-side is immense and impressive.
Incredible video! Happy New Year to you and those who read this ;)
I never thought that I would be able to get even close to touching 240hz, Now I have my own Asus 240hz OLED and its amazing! From an LED TV 60hz to an ASUS 240hz OLED was a massive jump!
And now you can never downgrade from 240hz or oled! xd
@@keppycs lol
@@keppycsNo need to. In 5 years we have newer OLED tech and all gaming monitors will be 240hz+
I went from a 175hz OLED that I was using for over a year to a 240hz OLED and I can't feel a difference at all, literally zero difference. Kinda disappointed to be honest. I'm doing everything I can to convince myself I feel it, but I just don't.
@@ronniekregar3482 In game, lock your eyes on any object (I prefer looking at a corner of a wall), move your mouse left and right at various speeds, so that the object moves back and forth on screen. Now toggle on and off an fps limit. For me, this test made the difference easily distinguishable.
I'm certainly getting a 360hz or 480hz OLED monitor this year. I can't wait for the performance benchmarks and the low motion blur implementations.
Im going for that dual mode 4k 240hz/1080p 480hz oled.
@@RealLordShaxx I hope there'll be a 1440p 360hz mode as well, making it triple mode. Should be possible through a firmware update, as the panel's tech is there.
that just isnt how pixel scaling works. it's 4k/1080p because they're both 2k resolutions, 1920x1080 is a perfect multiple of 3840x2160
2560x1440 is a 2.5k resolution
yes it's possible, but it certainly wouldn't look good@@filip9587
@@filip9587Yes and no. A 1440p mode would effectively be quite a bit worse image quality wise because you can't integer scale the image anymore (1080p->4K is 2x on each axis).
@@trixniisama Thanks for the clarification. I suppose it's not a technology problem, but more of a physical maths problem.
I was really hoping that you get your hands on these displays. I'm really stoked for these.
Letssss gooo. Can't wait for all of these insane monitors coming out! I hope they are available in South Africa soon.
the market is missing lower inch 1440p monitors like 25" 1440p 300hz Oled would be insane due to ppi / inch it would be almost like 4k quality on a smaller 25" competitive display for better peripheral vision, Oled for instant pixel transition and super clean image while maxing out FPS/Hz every single game on the market at 300hz 1440p with a 4090.
I’ve been using the Alienware QD OLED for over a year now and I will absolutely never go back to IPS. These are so superior in every way.
Thank you for what you do. You have been the most helpful UA-camr on this subject for me. Preciate you my man 🙏
what an eye candy this is! Both the monitor AND the video, as usual :D
Your videos are informative ❤
This might be the first time I have ever seen a live side by side being ran on a non oled and an oled for comparison. Usually never cared that much about the hype, but this is the first time I actually gained a bit of an appreciation for what oled can do for those really dark areas. Well done man :)
Watching these with the pretty much bottom of the barrel spec monitor is wild to me because I just can't imagine how good they must be, especially since I never really notice it's flaws? Great video overall though, love that you use new gameplay every time too
Holy moly did I just hear 480?
Man that’s great - refresh rates are getting so fast it’s almost like they’re “done” with that performance metric and can start prioritizing innovation of other features to keep bumping up the overall quality.
Now this is the reviewer I was waiting for!
Awesome video! Just ordered my AW2725DF! It’s my dream monitor mainly for the glossy display and near perfect sRGB color calibration so I can play Halo 3 the way it was meant to.
I have to disagree on matte vs glossy when web browsing though. I’ve had the LG 27GR95QE for a year now and in a dark room the matte finish kinda destroys the crystal clear quality of whites vs a glossy panel.
Dp 2.1, gen 3 oled panel and dolby hdr vision + glossy are my must haves
Hey optimum, excited for this year of content with all the upgrades you’re putting into the channel. Always inspired by your work ethic.
I was curious, I’ve been thinking about changing my secondary monitor to 4K, since I usually am watching UA-cam on it while working or gaming. Do you have any recommendations on that? I noticed you didn’t have any in the description.
P.S. New wallpapers look excellent, really nice work.
P.S.S. If you ever get into any product design again, I’d love to work together. I am an industrial designer and it would be a dream to collaborate.
Much love
THIS is what I've been waiting for! I've been rocking a really nice Alienware IPS monitor for about 4 years now just waiting for OLED gaming monitor technology to mature to this point. I can't wait to try one out!!!!
damn 360hz and oled gotta be something else
This guy is literally the one i expected and hoped to be doing the video when i saw the title.
As one of your first I will always remember your old logo your channel has grown an insane amount
it felt like yesterday when 240hz monitors where so rare to find
Yo @optimum! Now that CS2 has been out for a while, would you be interested in making a video about the best settings for minimun input lag? Things to investigate for example are nvidia reflex, different fps limits vs unlimited, resolutions, ”pro/competitive settings” vs everything maxed etc. I would like to hear your take on the matter, thanks!
You are the best man!!
keep it up.
I'm most excited about the panel care options that are coming out this year with some of the new monitors. Bc I'm psychotic and I can't stop thinking about burn in.
OLED monitors are absolutely beautiful but I’m too worried about burn in to buy one. It’s a pretty large investment so I really wouldn't want to be purchasing a new one for a really long time.
Yeah exactly. An endgame monitor like that you'd ideally want 5 years with, minimum. Minimum. And the warranties covering 2 years is a bit concerning because that means they know failures jump up after that time frame for the average user
@@richardcheese9152 This is exactly why I'm so conflicted. OLED TVs have been around for a while now, but the Windows interface always displays. Also, there are far less 1440p 240hz IPS options which pushes you towards OLED.
@@richardcheese9152Alienware offers 3 years if that's any consolation.
Need to disable static taskbar and enable a short sleep setting. Not sure if pixel orbit is still a thing but could do that too. And make a habit of closing blinds and turning down the brightness. Should be okay if u do those things
@@fercon9892 It just doesn’t fill me with confidence that I even have to take these measures (even though I know it’s things I should also probably do with my IPS monitor)
I'd love to see a cheap but good oled monitor round up video this year, couldn't see myself justifying a 480hz screen when all I do is casual valorant... But I really do like oled and would like to get the most bang for my buck
I've been feeling the OLED craz as well.
Decided to wait on the LG panel, and turns out 2024 is gonna bring some banger OLEDS
Glad to see some The Finals gameplay in your B-roll, loving this game atm
I’d really love to have you do one of these for the best 4K OLED screen. I understand why you prefer the crazy refresh rates of lower res monitors, but us 4K people need some love too 🥺
and it is easier to double the resolution than double the fps. and scaling down resolution work much batter than lowering fps.
so we really need 4k 480hz soon, frame gen starts at 200fps i would say, so you need 400hz display to get those extra frames.
There are no reasonably sized (non-productivity) 4k oled monitors currently available. He'll review the upcoming 32" 4K oled monitors closer to launch.
I'm hoping the same too, I had a quick look at the market and there's almost nothing in the 32-34" space, it's all 40+ inches.
4K at 32-34" size would be nice but I'd be happy enough with my current 1440p. There's a Philips and Samsung model, and an upcoming MSI, but they're all 3440x1440 ultrawides for some reason
4K at 27 inch is useless
@@fu928 maybe for you. I have 4K screens of various sizes, including 27”, and they are very useful.
This is why QD OLEDs suck in anything but a dark room. Have had my fair share of experience w/ them & side by side its a night & day difference in black levels compared to a WOLED. QD OLED contrast is even worse than VA in an average lit room.
Really looking forward to 4k OLED reviews
Another high quality optimum banger!
Could you notice the difference in colours between the older WOLED and this new qd-oled? Apparently the qd-oleds produce much richer colours, especially reds and greens compared to other oleds. Although some people might call it oversaturated.
theres no oversaturation. theres just the outdated extremely limited CRT colorspace "sRGB" holding everyone back.
Unless you have both side by side, I’d say both are good
I can't wait for your reviews. I want a 360 or even 480hx oled 1440p monitor but :
- I am still concerned by color fringing on text (LG vs Samsung panel comparison expected)
- I am concerned by the absence of DP2.1 as those monitors should be "future proof"
What you want to look for there is subpixel layout, I believe monitors in Q2 and beyond will fix this by shuffling subpixels around e.g. RWGB (or something or other) to RGBW or whatever. Point is they address this later on in the year
As for your second point, DP is still sufficient depending on your use case (console gamer?) and an argument about throughput is made e.g. 2.0 is perfectly sufficient, forget the exact details
dp 1.4 + dsc is perfectly capable of doing 480hz 1440p 10bit color without any perceptible difference...
also... the latest 4090 does NOT have DP 2.1... so it would be useless anyways!
the color fringing I agree tho...
Also... the BIGGEST concern with Oleds is their real desktop usage brightness... which has been lacking.
There will be a gigabyte 240hz 4k oled and probably 360hz 1440p variant with dp2.1 if you really need it. Though it's not needed as dsc works fine
Aorus new OLEDs will have dp 2.1, not sure when they release tho
@redacted1776 i heard only the 4k one has dp2.1
Hey optimum,
As the new year has begun im looking forward to you rating our setups again,
All of the setup reviews are both really entertaining and informative and we would love to have your expertised opinion on our clean and messy setups 😊😊
Still loving my hp omen x 27 aftershave all those years. 240 hz is amazing.
As soon as they start releasing budget oled monitors, then it will start making a lot of sense because the risk of burn it will then highly be worth it considering the value you get in return, and if you do ever need to replace it the price will finally be in the range where it wont be hard to accept.
People usually replace monitors in 3-4 years and using it daily for 4-5 hours will get burn in after 3-4 years with these current oled technologies.
You’ll be waiting YEARS for OLED monitors to reach “budget” pricing.
@@sermerlin1 No they don't. Lol. Gamers maybe. Most people don't even replace their computer every 3-4 years. Especially if it's a desktop thats powerful.
More like 8 or more years to replace a working monitor
3-4 years is crazy… But I’ve stopped doubting people lol
I just ordered the Dell Alienware AW2725DF using this same panel. Hopefully it's a good one.
Oh it will be. The factory calibration on the AW2725DF is insane! That’s the main advantage over the MSI but the passive cooling solution is MSI’s advantage.
@@andrewmorris3479Oh crud, does the Alienware not have passive cooling? I'm not a fan of fans!
It has active cooling based on the onscreen menu, you can test it. I can't hear it though so all good.
do you like it
@@kanontf2 Best monitor that I ever owned. I did return it after 3 weeks though. When I would play Warzone in HDR I would suffer from what felt like car sickness. I would just start feeling dizzy. I tried sync / no sync, loweing the Hz doqn etc.. but I just kept feeling sick. I switched back to my 170hz IPS and I stopped feeling sick . Maybe OLED wasn't for me. IPS looks like crap after using OLED though... But I like not feeling sick more.
Man, seeing these high refresh rate 1440p OLED's really makes me want to upgrade my OLED G8 (175hz), PC hardware is getting so insane and if Nvidia manage to release at least the 5090/5080 this year, then no doubt we could very easily max out the 360/480hz at native res on quite a few titles with DLSS.
Awesome vid, mate, can't wait for the next monitor review 👌👌
i think you hypnotized me with the word insane
For anyone who dream to play.. Overwatch 2, at 360fps. All 3 of them.
I'd put "QD-OLED" in the title over just "OLED"
Other than that good video!
I have LG 27GR95QE-B and I couldn’t be happier. Just amazing quality.
It’s a wonderful monitor! Had mine since last January and it’s been flawless.
I've been using the benq zowie xl2546k for 4 years now and I really feel like upgrading to this one. It looks absolutely insane tbh.
I wonder how long it'll take for ultrawide oleds to go down in price. Would be sick if they dropped to ~500 or something like that in the next year or two
I got the LG Oled monitor you previously reviewed about two months ago now and I have to say I’m honestly upset with how bad the pixel burn in is near the center of the screen already. I’ve used the pixel cleaning features quit a bit as well, it sucks how quickly it dies out for how expensive it is.
That’s why u should NEVER buy ANY product based on a UA-cam channel’s recommendation. These guys get sent free stuff and get paid 5, sometimes 6 figure checks to shill products on their channel. Even when you think they’re being “transparent”, they’ll never rate any product in a negative light if they’re getting paid for it. It’s better to wait for the product to release and get real-world opinions from actual users and not just people on UA-cam.
@@AlmightyEye You’re not wrong. I at least thought Optimum was one of the better tech reviewers
This is one of the main reasons, I will never buy an OLED monitor. I don’t want to pay a premium price and then having to worry about it when using it like a normal PC monitor. For example, many people use their PC for desktop usage or leave their PC on for many hours and that’s gonna be a problem with OLED. to me, it’s like having a sports car but you gotta be wary of not revving up otherwise it might break
I hope you will get that burn in sorted soon man!
@@andrewgreen8383LG 27” OLED? Guess I don’t have any burn in or such, but did you get it from BestBuy with a 4 year Geek Squad plan?
I have had the same monitor but only for about a month so this is quite worrying to hear. The other thing that bothers me in this video is that he says there's virtually no difference between the matte and glossy coating when in reality the matte coating has quite a horrible grainy look on white or near white images that I'm sure moving to glossy would solve. Bit of a hit to his recommendations for me unfortunately.
Also, no reviewers seem to say/care much about just how bad the dirty screen effect is on darker grey images. I had to return my first one because it was disgusting. Even my second monitor was only acceptable after running a compensation cycle.
I would love to watch your gameplay for "The Finals" and "Apex Legends". I find your style of creation/effort to be magnetizing bro. Your content is so high quality and I always look forward to anything you put out. I've been recently saving money to finally buy a pc so that I can get better at fps games and your channel is like a gold mine. Plus I do Olympic weightlifting (not powerlifting, but lifting nonetheless). You're like how I want to be when I get older hahahah. Anyways, I'm done glazing you
When the price starts coming down on these OLED's I'll def buy one
It's awesome to see OLED tech climbing so fast, and glossy coatings. Once we start getting into the 40+ inch sizing, and 4k, count me in. Loving my 42" LG C2, no way am I going back in size or resolution, I'm spoiled now after a year. 4090 can run these settings at 220+ frames now in some of the worst optimized games, even on BF2042, so we are definitely there performance wise.
The greatest thing about these insanely high refresh rate OLED displays is we're going to see 120hz OLED displays be marketed and sold at an affordable price next year.
The new QD-OLEDs will be able to come curved or flat, matte or gloss with anti-reflective coating and even the inputs will change per model/brand on the 27" and 32", with some models even having Dolby Vision (Only the 32" it seems, and only some models). I'm looking at the HP Omen or the Gigabyte for the 32" as they have DisplayPort 2.1 (the Gigabyte having full DisplayPort 2.1), though the 32" are stuck at 240hz. The QD-OLED need a good anti-reflective coating because unlike the LG Panels, there is no polarizer. To be honest, I was hoping the panels this year would have Phosphorescent Blue OLEDs, which would allow them to be brighter and run longer with more stability, but it looks like they're not ready for this year.
Would be interested to see more comparisons of the OLED technology as more iterations of this panel come vs last year's LG. Was very surprised to see deeper blacks washed out with even a glossy coating.
They need to make more 24" monitors
I thought I wasn't able to use a 27 inch OLED but when I got it I adjusted to it it's alot easier on the eyes than my various 24 inch LCD panels I owned.
@@manicniceguy2341 I'd love to get 27", but the issue for me is desk space, I run triple monitors, and with speakers on the desk too I doubt I'd be able to fit 3 27" monitors comfortably. With 3 24" my speakers are slightly hanging off the desk.
Let 24" die. It's the new 17".
I am not paying more than $400 for a monitor, that’s ridiculous
Had to search too long for this comment. 🙄
Ok
This is quite literally top of the line quality, what did you expect
I am actually SO excited for this panel and hopefully cheaper oled panels
I'm using a 32" 240Hz G7. hard to go back to 27" no matter how good it looks, it's essentially a medium size monitor vs miniature TV for consuming content and gaming, all while having 240Hz since years ago while people were playing with 27" IPS 165Hz and complaining this whole time.
I'd jump on OLED instantly if it wasn't for burn-in problems, they still sadly exist with this technology
? Lame excuse for not being able to afford one lol

They're not expensive, and how stupid some of you look trying to make this about money. The technology has obvious downsides which will create problems to many of its users.
This is why MicroLED will be the ultimate answer
Sony doesn't even make its 2024 flagship TV an OLED btw
@Hirnlego999 sony panels has always been dogshit samsung and lg has always pushed the boundaries and been innovative for the past 2 decades. Burn in isn't a problem for these monitors. also u get 2 year warranty if that does magically happen. So yeah it is about money for you. Ppl make products seem bad and heavily flawed when they haven't even tried it. So why speak on it. LOL
the prices i think should be added in and compared on a chart at the end for us to look at too (love your visual tools so would also appreciate this)
wohoooo,
Can't wait till you get your hands on the 480hz ones later this year
Bruh idek how i found you you just came out of nowhere into my feed with fire. I think its high time i subscribe
good to see you playing The FINALS!
Just copped the ASUS PG27AQDM for 713 USD knowing full well there's a lot of good stuff on the horizon. Weaknesses expected (still shipping): text clarity (subpixel format), poor HD performance (mitigated by firmware updates), HDMI 2.0 (less of a concern, not a console gamer), some ambiguity about burn-in management, and matte vs glossy considerations (which is touched on briefly in this video as being less relevant)
Using a single monitor setup for both work and gaming, the crappy sub pixel layout is an absolute show stopper for my use-case.
Very happy to hear that this still hasn't changed on the new models (and maybe never will as it's an OLED thing?) so I don't need to fomo into them and can happily continue using my AQN as the jack of all trades that it truly is.
Yes, the text problem remains but on the new 4k 240hz monitors the text situation is much better and that's why I'm sitting here thinking whether to get the AQN or the new 4k oled, because text quality is important to me too (a lot of work on pc).
I am really looking forward to watching your review on the new and upcoming ASUS OLED 480hz PG27AQDP. It features a new technology that makes text readability clearer.
People always say that there isn't much of a difference between 360hz and 240hz but I think it depends on the person's perception sensitivity, because I personally cannot go back. The same thing would happen back then when I upgraded from a 60hz to a mere 75hz, even though it seems like such a small jump it felt extremely significant. I get that as the number increases there are diminishing returns, but I have yet to personally feel any of that yet, I suppose that's only when we get to more insane refresh rates.
I've bought the 240hz oled from LG after CES 2023, now waiting for 240hz 4k 27'' OLED (with dp 2.1, UHBR20) before I will upgrade again. ✌️
The only thing that prevents me from buying one is the text quality. Apart from that they seem to be an amazing gaming/creative monitor
Only thing I would say is about the colour, I have the G2724qrf-qd and that covers 95% of dci-P3 and it looks superb. Yes it doesnt have anywhere near the contrast or the pixel response time, inky blacks etc. But all im saying is for anyone on a budget, you will get extremely good colour outside of oled with a qd ips panel. I will be upgrading to oled later in the year though for sure, but if you just think the colour is night and day, it is not, its the QD and they are affordable
yeah mate, that's because it's an IPS panel not an OLED lmfao. It's basically inherent to the technology to be multiple times faster than even the fastest lcds essentially no matter the type within reason. On colour accuracy actually the best IPS display are still moderately ahead of the best oleds so yeah if it's just colour accuracy ur after u can get the same for cheaper or better for the same price optimum didnt test REC2020 which is much wider than DCIP3 and the best consumer monitors only cover like 80% of that.
Love your content! ♡
Good to see you back after the holidays optimum!! Did you see what they did to the nr200p v2?? Some major steps backwards with that case imo. Also are u getting the new n case m1 evo?? Apparently they are already working on the evo v2.
I love pc gaming… I can’t get enough of it; monitors are the cherry on top.
Nice review. That is exactly the type of monitor I am looking for now all I need is for OLED to come down quite a bit in price. I just can't bring myself to pay over $500 for a monitor.
Just want to add the upcoming 480hz W-OLED monitors are going to come with BFI(black frame insertion) technology as well(at least on the ASUS models).
I bought the 32 in 4k panel. This is my first oled
1:00 correction you can see the slightest amount of ghosting on the oled panel
I think the best part about 360Hz OLEDs releasing is that the 240Hz panels might start to drop a bit more in price! Might be time for me to finally get an upgrade after a long, long time
