    If you have any concern for longevity of the monitor then you want mini-LED, and a mini-LED under 1 grand is a really really stellar thing and doesn't deserve to just be dismissed like that. 1440P is a resolution that looks great at 27" so I bet even if you ran your games at 1440P on this 4K display they'd still look better than 90% of the monitors out there.

      I've been a very happy user of the 1440P Tempest monitor for the last bunch of months; 4k at this screen size is lost on me at 27 inches and the back light is fantastic as it can go all the way past 1500 nits full screen, and stay at that brightness no matter what is going on screen. I'm on a 7900xtx, I very well could use a 4k monitor, but I like that I can max out in a lot of games without a problem, and for the couple of titles, I can use ray tracing without too many comperomises

      As a 4K monitor owner, I can tell you that running 1440p on it looks blurry as hell still. Anything non-native resolution will look blurry. I have a second 1440p 165Hz monitor just for gaming because of this exact reason. I never enjoy the look of non native resolutions. If you want to play at 1440p, get a 1440p monitor. So I agree with this video. This monitor is 4K and 4K still sucks for gaming.

      Tbf, there are many 4K 27" mini-LED monitors under $1K at this point, so it's not special in THAT regard. As for 1440p, I want 4K exactly because 1440 isn't good for 1080p or 4K content. If I need more performance, I can just use FSR, which the is the only time upscaling 1440p to 4K looks good.

      I personally didn't really even like them that much a couple of years ago tbh, the contrast ratio issues just annoy me. Almost all of them are ~1000-1500:1, where VA tends to be more like 3000:1 contrast ratio, and that has mattered to me more than the extra black trailing that's common for VA. Local dimming helps, but doesn't solve the issue fully, and brings along with it some other things that can bother me, personally.
      Everything has issues, no technology is perfect yet, you just gotta pick the aspects you want and avoid the aspects you can't tolerate.
      That said the monitors available today overall are just miiiillleeeessss beyond what they used to be just a few short years back, you can get great quality for a very reasonable price, and insane quality for a bit extra. And the selection is huge, there should be something for anyone's tastes out there.
      OK there's one thing still missing, that I've seen multiple people wishing: Something that's really big, but not 16:9 like a TV, while taller than ultrawides. Like a 49" 32:9 ultrawide is big, but just a pretty damn thin strip, and I've seen a fair few people wanting a bit more height without having to get a full TV (mostly in the racing, flight sim and space sim spheres). A 2.35:1 at ~50" size would be great for them, nearly 50% taller than a 32:9 but way thinner than a TV.

    • @Kraaketaer
      @Kraaketaer 6 місяців тому

      FYI, the Corsair 240Hz OLED has a 3-year warranty covering burn-in, FWIW.
      I have bought and returned two 1440p FALD MiniLED IPS monitors - an AOC and a Cooler Master. Both were great in high brightness HDR scenarios*, but were far too clunky overall, requiring a lot of OSD interactions switching between usage scenarios, and often just looked outright bad even in HDR mode due to color accuracy issues (color testing is almost always done in SDR, sadly) and other less tangible image quality issues. I'm talking about things like weird color transitions, parts of the picture looking muddy, etc. - most likely from strange interactions between FALD backlighting, very wide color gamuts, VRR, and probably other variables too. This caused them to be like an 8/10 in HDR, but ranging from 6/10 to 10/10 depending on the scenario. My conclusion is that miniLED IPS panels can be great for what they do, but they're also very, very specialized, and are unsuited for any use that doesn't include a lot of OSD futzing. Also, neither of the ones I tested were anything special in SDR mode, including locked-down image adjustments in sRGB mode and a lot of other little annoyances. (CM did seem to have fixed all their initial firmware issues though.) I ended up getting a Corsair OLED, and I'm extremely happy with it - but then I don't use my PC for office tasks, it's essentially a TV replacement in my usage, so I'm not that worried about burn-in and don't mind the slight text blur from the WOLED WRGB subpixel layout.

    If you're into retro games or even play a lot of PS4, you'll want 1440p OLED anyway. 1440 is double 720 and triple 480. I still use a SD CRT and modern consoles have a minimum of 1280x720, so I can't really play a PS5 on my TV even though I buy HDMI to S-Video adapters, they're just not designed for it. (though Xbox Series X has a 480p mode) I have a CRT, but I've been eying OLED for years, thinking of HDMI modding the PS2, Xbox and Wii and dumbing down the HDMI to S-Video while I still have a CRT and in hopes of we'll get 8K OLEDs or MicroLEDs cheap one day and plug my consoles into HDMI scan line generators.

    For someone who was like “Sony Inzone M9 only 900 that’s great and a decent price”, feels like you’re being unjustifiably harsh on this… when it’s 100 cheaper, has over 10 times the dimming zones and has 6 times the PD output power. Makes you sound like a Sony shill 🤦🏻‍♂️😅
    So which is it, because you can’t say this isn’t a good price for a better product, after saying an inferior more expensive product was a good deal… specially with Sony’s stupid monitor stand 🤦🏻‍♂️😅

    I bought one of these, and I wish I'd decided to return it before it was too late. It has some nasty coil whine that changes depending on brightness, and it's too dang bright at night!
    The USB-C is unreliable: half the time when I wake my work Mac, I have to unplug and replug the cable. And speaking of USB-C, when you're on that input, the monitor shows FreeSync as disabled and won't let you try to change it.
    The KVM switch feature doesn't work very well. Sometimes it'll send a keyboard event to the sleeping PC I just switched away from, rather than to the current machine I'm trying to wake.
    There are a number of other firmware problems, too: Picture-by-Picture and auto-rotation are screwy, and why is there an option to turn on Bluetooth?
    It has a menu option for firmware updates, but the downloads section of their site doesn't even know the monitor exists!

    OLED would have to be under $500 for me to consider it for the risks of burn in. I want to have my monitors for 3-5 years at least if I'm spending any more. I'd gladly pay $1500 for a good mini LED over an $800-$1000 OLED in the same size right now. A TV on the other hand I'd definitely go OLED if I didn't need the extra brightness.

      It will take 2-3 years of leaving current gen OLED displays on at maximum brightness to force any notable burn-in, with normal day-to-day use, it is impossible to get burn-in on OLED, no matter how hard you try, and next gen OLED, aka PHOLED, brings endurance up 100%, add to that dual-stack and multi-stack (Tandem) PHOLED, which raises endurance even further, 5-10 times in fact, Tandem PHOLED has greater image retention resistance than most LCD panels, burn-in is a relic of the past.

For just as many people saying they don't have burn in, I've seen just as many with my use case with some degree and of burn in within the first year.

Then tried it back on my old Acer X27 and missed curved 21:9 and the smoothness, but loved the brightness of mini led🤷. Right now I'm more interested in micro LED (even though it's still a minimum of 5 years from being affordable), but if PHOLED releases in the next 2 years and does what is claimed and in 21:9 it could be what I get until micro LED monitors are a thing.

There are multiple users on UA-cam that have had post 2018 produced OLED displays running a maximum brightness static image 24/7 for years without any burn-in protection switched on, none of them were able to produce any noticeable burn-in, it was only the past 3 years when they actually had a small amount of burn-in, but even that was only visible when the whole screen was showing a single bright colour over the whole screen, they have all but completely eliminated any meaningful image retention, and they have done this before we have even moved onto 2nd gen OLED, aka Tandem PHOLED, which is due in 2024-2025, which is several fold as burn-in resistant, meaning it will take 10 plus years to see any burn-in, and even then you will have to knowingly force it to get burn-in.
