Nice unboxing! Just a question, how about productivity in this monitor? Text clarity on MacOS. I want a high end gaming-productivity display, this is one of my options.
Hey! Does this monitor have the VRR control setting (that removes vrr flickering)? Does it have VRR flickering? Does it work with Gsync without flickering? Does it have scanlines? Have a nice day everyone!
I enjoyed your video. There is a rumor that the Samsung G80SD OLED monitor is a QD OLED monitor, so the black color appears in a bright environment. There are also many who say that it appears as a deep blue color in a bright environment. Can you confirm this? Oh! And did you check the burn-in policy when you purchased it? What kind of burn-in policy is it?
I chat with Samsung agent online prior to placing my order. She said the warranty statement online was for existing standard monitors (that didn’t mention anything about burn in). The latest model she said has burn in protection. 🤞🏻
I’d give it an 8 for my use case (work and entertainment in bright room) Why 8? - Non reflective display (usage more than 8 hours a day) - Act as 4K HDR TV, with speakers supporting Dolby ATMOS - Slim profile (thinner than my 2019 iMac) - No issue with 4K HDR 240Hz 10-Bit RGB/ YCbCr 4:4:4 VRR PC Gaming Why Not 8.5? - No Dolby Vision - No Official G-Sync (But I enabled it anyway with no issue) - Built-in Netflix can’t do HDR (i use laptop Netflix for HDR with ATMOS) To Avoid? - If you really like glossy display (yes glossy looks nicer vs matte if environment supports it) - Burn In Warranty is a grey area (at least to me) - No DP 2+ Let me know if that helps…

How is the panel holding now? Is it sensitive to micro scratches like the asus or due to matte coating is more durable??
@@KitrinomavrosTimoros I haven’t wipe on the display so far, no scratch observed.
Would you recommend this over the ASUS ROG Swift OLED PG32UCDM?

The Proprietary Dynamic Cooling System for the panel. Game changer for preventing burn-in.
Game changer? Why do they not provide burn in warranty in that case in any eu country, while every other manufacturer does for 3 full years?

With this monitor, are you able to quickly switch between 2 input sources or do you have to go through a bunch of menus?

The ppi can’t beat MacBook or iMac display but sharp enough for me to do coding at 4K 120Hz.

Does it have VRR flickering?

Probably let me shoot another video on my settings and some sample gameplays, hopefully that can help answer your questions.
is your cable off-white or white?
Black
Do you have burn in yet?

Yes

it is qd oled Matte finish with full anti glare coating to be visible in any light condition.

After a couple of days would you recommend and why or why not 1-10
I’d give it an 8 for my use case (work and entertainment in bright room)
Why 8?
- Non reflective display (usage more than 8 hours a day)
- Act as 4K HDR TV, with speakers supporting Dolby ATMOS
- Slim profile (thinner than my 2019 iMac)
- No issue with 4K HDR 240Hz 10-Bit RGB/ YCbCr 4:4:4 VRR PC Gaming
Why Not 8.5?
- No Dolby Vision
- No Official G-Sync (But I enabled it anyway with no issue)
- Built-in Netflix can’t do HDR (i use laptop Netflix for HDR with ATMOS)
To Avoid?
- If you really like glossy display (yes glossy looks nicer vs matte if environment supports it)
- Burn In Warranty is a grey area (at least to me)
- No DP 2+
Let me know if that helps…
I’m probably going to get this one unless the msi one comes back in stock but glad you like it I’m in different to the display type matte/glossy
