holy that extra comparison with the motion blur effect was amazing, thank you for that!
That's what makes this channel so great. He gives you the digestible content similar to Linus but provides the tech like Gamer's Nexus or Hardware Unboxed does in an aesthetic similar to Dave2D. It's like the best of all 4 channels combined into 1.
I always come here for monitor recommendations and comparisons. Dude is top tier. 👍🏽
Yea OLED's are great for gaming, its like TN panels motion blur. almost no ghosting or delay.
@@georgepierre3594 Tn have huge ghosting vs oled... by x8 times. That is why BFI Dyac OR mbr you need to use it reduces ghosting for 50% Buy TC oled 120hz and tes tn 240hz... u will see oled is clear.
Great explanation, finally understood the difference between ghosting vs motion blur!
For real, most reviewers take this knowledge for granted and don't explain it at all.
@@Dionyzos or don't really know themselves (few are even close to the level of Tim @HUB)

Nobody mentioned here comes closed to the extensive knowledge of Aperture Grille or BattleNonSense and ofc BlurBusters.

I just love the technical analysis you always give us but also never skimp on the quality and beauty of the videos. Big love, keep it up!!!
The in depth explanations in this video are amazing. Dropping bangers as always!
Thanks for these videos. I appreciate that you keep your videos focused on one topic and go medium-deep instead of doing a half hour long video with 10 topics. Thanks again!
The reading texts bit at the end is an eye opener !
HELL YES THANK YOU FOR THIS TEST. YOUR VIDEOS ARE THE BEST. YOU LITERALLY KNOW EXACTLY WHAT WE NEED TO SEE!
Hoping to see some further regular updates on burn in if any ever shows up.
There will be no burn-in
If you're using it for media consumption and not static images for long periods of time i.e. documents, articles etc then there shouldn't be burn in.
@@GeneralAeon what if you do only that? Programming. Why there are no new monitors for editors and programmers
@@Donbros then why would you need an OLED?
@@RESURRECT2 yes there will be.
Thank you for the video! :) I find it interesting when you share information about how things work. Keep up the good work!
So nice that you bring up this about perceived motion blur even if the OLED has near instantaneous pixel respons time! I remember comparing an OLED TV from 2017 with my Plasma TV from 2010 (both at 60 Hz) and thinknig motion blur must be so much better on the OLED with its short pixel response time. Oh, my what a surpsise when motion in games looked so much blurrier on the OLED!
I was just comparing monitors through both of your OLED and IPS reviews, so this video comes at the exact time I needed it.
was anticipating this follow up ever since the original OLED review dropped, thank you!
OLED manufacturers really need to pay Microsoft to implement ClearType for their sub pixel layouts. I always notice how text isn’t rendered nicely with sub pixel layouts that aren’t supported by ClearType, so I don’t really want to get an OLED monitor (even though I love OLED and have one for my TV)
With 4K resolution the text without ClearType actually looks pretty decent. You can disable it easily.
@@VladK-1 Yes, it does look better with ClearType disabled, but it's just not as good as an something with ClearType. Could I live without ClearType? Yeah, probably. But it's just really disappointing that ClearType exists yet it can't be used with the incredible new display types that are on the market.
That’s the main reason I returned mine…using for work gave me headaches.
only channel i trust to be both thorough but actually get to the point quickly, good stuff as always
Very wonderful explanation of ghosting vs motion blur.
You don’t hold back at all in any of your videos that you make. They’re always so detailed and very well presented.
Great review, thank you! Exactly the kind of topics and differences I wanted to see 👊
You got my subscription due to the level of indepth review of these monitors. This is type of information I'm looking for when searching for tech in general, a thorough review.
Having just made the switch from ASUS PG35VQ to the Corsair Xeneon the visuals are NOTICEABLE, beyond the 40-60hz increase, the colors.... oh my. Ony complaint is pixel density since I game and productivity. That said, so far I am pleased.
Looks to me like a lot of people who are on the OLED monitor bandwagon don't realize the sacrifice they are making with (poor) text clarity - due to OLED's lower pixel density. My Asus IPS monitor does 140 PPI. I'm sure as shit not gonna drop down to 96 or even 106 PPI with OLED just to get darker blacks, much as I would love to have darker blacks. My guess is most people don't realize how good text can look at 140 PPI and so don't realize what they are missing with OLED.
@@dap777754 oh I was aware and the trade off is worth it. If I had the space I’d just sit a tad further from my monitor.
@dap777754 are you using your monitor as Ebook reader? I will never go back to IPS in a million years. I hate how black is grey on IPS and how most IPS monitors have light bleed. The problem with the text is there on the Oled but you barely notice it. If you look for it, then yes, you will always see it but this thing with text on Oled is overrated.
@@dap777754 OLED contrast doesn't boil down to just deep blacks, as was stated in the video. It depends on your use cases and priorities, I guess. If sharp text is of greater importance to you than ghe overall picture quality... When it comes to gaming I could probably imagine this being the case for people who mainly play text heavy RPG games. OLEDs should be thought of as displays purely intended for gaming/video consumption (reading manga/comics is also great on them) at the moment.
@@dap777754feels like you came here to complain about OLED without actually watching the video since he pointed out that the deeper blacks were the least important thing to him and listed all the other reasons he's switching to OLED. you're making a strawman argument over nothing
Class vid - thanks man. I’ve just picked up the 32” XG32VC. Noticeably slow compared to the XG27WQ I had before it and ofc not in the same league of pixel performance of the PG259QNR before that. However, the immersion is excellent and I’ll be sure to wait for the rumoured 32” 240hz 4K OLED panels in the not to distant future!
Why would you need 4K 240Hz monitor ? Not many games / GPUs can handle 240Hz at 4K
@@hamadkhalifa6104it's mostly just marketing
@@hamadkhalifa6104 That's your problem? What about the 32 inches? There is no point on having a monitor at that point. 32 inches to sit half a meter is WAAAAAAY to much! I do currently have a 24 inch one and I wish I could get a smaller one.
24 inch 1440p is the way to go! Currently, I'm thinking to get AOC Q24G2A/BK! It's IPS, 23.8", 2560x1440 and 165Hz!

Thank you so much for the review. The most professional and helpful review on the entire net.
Looking forward to the new video ...
Optimum is my go to guy for tech when looking for a good product. He doesn't just give a "my personal" review.. but a deep down depth review into the product.
So much of good and clear information. Top production level. Thank you.
absolute top tier video, great info and comparisons!
Been waiting for this video since this monitor was announced. Great as always
Great video, short but very explanatory. Thank you, you've helped me to decide what to aim for.
dude your content is second to none, I dont know if you have a team working with you or you do it all yourself but either way its incredible.. I find myself wanting to emulate your entire setup and peripherals.... you just need a set of Vanatoo T0 powered desktop speakers.. trust me they are worth 1000 dollars and they are significatly cheaper then that.
I dont think i've ever seen someone simulate an actual eye for the motion blur comparison. awesome feature!
Thank you for answering all the questions I had! This video definitely convinced me to buy the IPS 360Hz simply because I will have to look at a lot of text throughout the day when not gaming on this thing.
Awesome video and explanation of the concepts. Great to see an Aussie doing well and putting out great content.
I love how you just always have some insane tracer clip playing in the background

I bingewatched about 20 hours of Monitors Unboxed this week, and this video was still relevant and gave extra insight. Well done.
Great technical analysis and overall review! Well done!
Oh man I'll probably be picking up an oled 5-6 yrs from now when I upgrade to am5 but seeing how far display technology has come is truly astounding.
same, saving up now lol
Honestly this is one of the best gaming tech video's I have watched in years.
Simple to the point - Great job.
I found this very helpful for showing the differences, thanks
I love your videos. Always concise with great data.
Ever since PS Vita I'm in love with OLED.
So, all OLED gaming monitors will have same RBG subpixels? Even in future? I much typing and reading on Windows. I don't want spend $1k on monitor with blurry text.
get 4k oled
I have yet to find blurry texts on my 4K OLED.
the production values in your videos are so insane!!!!
Thanks, I'm currently deciding between these two monitors!
Just disable clear type in windows. Not all apps react to it equally but chrome renders text in grayscale really well.
is that for the oled?
Thanks for the clarification around the text usage scenario, I was all very excited until then, but definitely that's a deal breaker! Shame, this looked awesome.
It's not so bad if you turn off ClearType in Windows, that's what makes it so bad on the OLED's but most people don't know this.
or instead of turning off cleartype, CONFIGURE cleartype instead!! I think cleartype allows you to choose which pixel layout your monitor has, and hence your text will be correctly rendered! cheers
@@SreenikethanI the problem is the subpixel layout isn't supported by windows so cleartype doesnt work.
@@networkn wait, actually?? damn, i for some reason recall seeing BGR layout or something similar...
@@SreenikethanI yeah, oleds use a triangular sub pixel layout that windows doesn't natively support. You can improve it, but it won't be perfect. Having said that the 1440p ultrawide from Samsung looked great to me for windows text and I consider myself fussy
Masterful video. Truly amazing work.
Hey Optimum great unbiased review man! I had seen the video also when it came out and I happened to land on it again today and considering the fact that it has been 7 months until the video release, it felt like a decent point at which I could come and ask if you have any shenanigans or Burn ins to report. Does the monitor still remain flawless or you happen to have witnessed any issues with it (Always speaking about the OLED one)
I went for the 244hz oled myself and could not be happier. FPS gaming isn’t the only thing I do on my PC and having the flexibility to play other games or watch movies is so nice.
so OLED is good? because I literally want to try an OLED monitor with and High refresh rate
@@_.francescodm
not a monitor review but i got an ips phone coming from an Oled one and the difference is huge.
phone is redmi 12c
it was an upgrade from very old phone so it was still worth it.
@@_.francescodmyea OLED is amazing, I got the LG one he mentioned at the beginng, about a month ago. It's amazing it feels fast looks super colorful. I have around 200 hours playtime on it with zero issues. Definitely get OLED if you can, and they come with OLED care so you really don't have to worry about image burning. But I still recommend turning off the monitor if you are gonna be away from your pc. One last thing, the LG supports HDMI 2.1 which is great for consoles
@@zeniyibaby1854 I wonder if it's worth it to upgrade to OLED if you already have a 240hz 1440p ips monitor, are the colors really that much better for gaming? That it is worth it to upgrade just for the OLED?
Are u sure there is not gonna get burn ins? Cuz i really want to get a oled display but im so fkn scared for burn ins😳
When is 'The Best ITX cases V4' video? Any time soon??? Love the video BTW and keep the amazing content going!!! (Also what are your thoughts on the 4070 price cuts)
Good review thank you, I was about to go for OLED until you mentioned the bright room issue and the blur for everyday work use, you saved me time with this review!
Both things are non issues. OLED blows IPS out of the water in almost every category and its not close. Only reason to stay away from OLED is if you are scared of image retention and burn in.
Had to pause the video in order to applaud you for the fantastic graphs comparing monitor response times.
I just love oled. I can't wait for it to become more affordable over time.
I've been waiting for 3 years now...
LG is selling the 48" OLED 4k monitor (not TV) for $900 vs the normal $1500 up until Nov 5th of 2023. Just ordered one due in next Wed
@@xenuno I've found some lightly used LG OLED monitors for good prices recently. I just bought a $700 1440p240hz OLED LG monitor, it was open box condition. Heavily discounted from its $1k msrp. They are getting more abundant and cheaper.
My oled monitor is a repurposed 1440p tablet that maxes out at 30 hertz ☠️
@@xenunothat dose sound reasonable but God damn that's basically a TV. How big is your desk bruh?
man aside from the very informative and well put together content, I just can't with the color composition and shots from your videos, it looks insanely good!
Was literally thinking about this. Perfect timing.
Thanks for all your effort and the in-depth comparison you've shared. I always learn something new after watching your videos.
Man the bump from 1080p TN 144z to 1440p OLED 240hz Is going to be insane, can’t wait.
im already on 1080p tn 240hz, so no reason for me to upgrade, im glad i went for the 240hz option back then!
@@budgetking2591 lol
8:40 - That last bullet point of 32" 4k with 480Hz support is basically the end game monitor for anyone who can afford the GPU that can support 4k 480 fps...
Can't wait to upgrade to it in 3-4 years.
That's the dfr display, it's 240hz at 4k and it drops to 1080p to do 480hz. likely going to be my next monitor
Yes for casuals, while for competitive gaming you will still want 1080p or 1440p
Amazing review.
You are singlehandedly the reason I’m getting the asus oled. I’ve been all over Reddit and CZcams trying to decide what to buy.
You’re video made it clear to me
the comparison everyone has been waiting for😎👍
Just made the switch from 10 year old TN panel to 240hz IPS and this already blew my mind but I can also use it perfectly during the day for office work without any worries about burn in or textclarity.
For immersive single player I can still play on my Oled 4k TV.
Try playing on an OLED ultrawide, best of both worlds.
@@Sam-fs8sx what about burn-in, and using it for browsing/work?
Man I got my IPS dell next to my LG C1 and the bleed looks so bad. I know I lost the IPS lottery, but damn
@@stanislavkimov2779 If you get the Dell Alienware QD OLED you get 3 years full warranty that covers Burn In.
@@awilder27 it's not lottery, leds are just shit
Just can't jump on the oled bandwagon with the potential burn-in problem. My monitor is on probably 14 hours a day, and I've been using my current monitor for 7 years now (and my second screen monitor is 12 years old). Not worth buying something that potentially will have burn-in within a couple years and need to be replaced. I want my hardware to last.
Hey OP great video, would you say this comparison still stands since they have both had a firmware update to fix some of the issues you've mentioned.
Comparison was superb. Useful explanations.
I just upgraded from a 160hz IPS to a 240hz OLED. There really is some motion blur but tracking moving objects at medium speed is much cleaner and therefore easier on the eyes. As for Refreshrate: i dont feel much of a difference. - i actually wanted to get rid of motion blur with the OLED purchase but i guess therr is no way to get around that. You said more Hertz, but I doubt i could generate more than 240 frames in Call Of Duty, even with a 4090, cause that 3D-Engine is miles behind modern competitive games which easily go to 500fps😊
What's your cpu? I get 280 on cod with a 3070ti at 1080p at normal/low settings
@@Tricendo oh, yeah. I should have mentioned that I play in UWQHD (3440x1440) which is about 4.5mil Pixels. I average are 220fps in Multiplayer with a i7 11700k and 32GB 3600mhz. Game is installed on a M.2 with Direct Storage compat.
Coincidentally that keeps me well inside the GSync range, but I thought the 4090 could boost me higher, as I am well below 4k (which is 8mil pixels).
Maybe I switch to 14th gen when it comes out. My 11th gen might be showing signs of weakness with a 4090, tho both components are not sweating with CoD
@prodigy_xd i would check to see what your cpu and gpu ultilization percentage is when playing and if your gpu isnt using 97% or more then yeah, you are cpu limited. Though it might not be as bad as it seems because the nvidia drivers requires a powerful cpu in order to max out the card (in your case a 4090. It basically wants the cpu to lap the gpu in performance to make sure its powerful enough before maxing out at 100%. Theres many videos showing thats the case when using a 7900xtx in the same rig as the amd card will be ultilized higher (thus yielding higher fps in some games) bc it doesn't have that dumb driver that requires a powerful cpu. So you'll want the fastest cpu to get the most out of the 4090. you seem like a plug-in-play type of guy so I would recommend a 7800X3D with 6400MT/S ddr5 ram and a b650 mobo and if that's too much then your can get a 5800X3D which is the platform I'm currently on. When playing overwatch 2 with everything low except textures high and high anisotropic filtering I get 580fps avg and my gpu (3070ti) is at 98% utilization and my cpu is at 30% utilization. I'm getting a 4090 this weekend and getting the lg 27" 1440p 240hz oled. I can let u know what my fps is matching your graphics settings and matching your res using the dsr factor in the control panel.
@@Tricendo I did some more testing and also observed all cores using RTSS (afterburner). My CPU "main" core is usually at 59%, other cores are at 30% and probably not used by the game. Frequency is 4600mhz stock.
GPU is not maxed with Ultra details and DLSS Quality. Hovers around 70%. When i disable DLSS the GPU uses 97% and is "voltage limited".
So it can't even rasterize "CoD Ultra in non-4k" with more than 160FPS. Not saying it should, but i don't find CoD visually that impressive that i shouldn't be able to reach more. What is dragging down FPS the most in CoD is when you set Textures to HIGH. There is something in there that kills the performance. All while they don't look much better than NORMAL.
When i then turn down settings to medium-ish (textures and shadow to normal, no AO, medium AA, no Physics/Weather/Water etc.. what you could call "competitive settings") i also get the GPU usage down to 70% - but without upscaling. Pure rasterization and doesn't look much worse. Then i also get back to the 200 realm, however, i never get above 210.
and during all theses multiplayer tests my CPU was not once under pressure. hmmm.. that's why i said in my first comment that CoD engine "is miles behind modern competitive games". It probably isn't made with 240hz in mind. I guess they are happy when it can push 120 on a 4K Console and dont optimized much more beyond that.
@@prodigy_xddo you have the LG 45 oled ultrawide, hows the response compared between 120 to 240fps? I got a C2 atm.
Also, pixel per inch? Isnt 81 too low and noticeable?
I just imagine how far they could have taken CRT if they've kept working on it and improving it. No input lag, and amazing tracking.
I still prefer mines over my oled. (2070sb) Mostly just use the oled for shows.
Probably not far since it uses vacuum tubes
plasma died too soon
That’s practically what plasma was
SED, my beloved...
Liked and subbed , will have to check out some more of your channel . I’m an old person ,62 , but I would still like to build another gaming machine someday . I seriously thought I’d die of old age before oled was a thing with computer monitors. Great seeing options out there , and hopefully more in the future
I’ve been watching every review possible on this new oled, but that seals it. Definitely going to grab one of these. Thanks so much for your reviews!
Got my alieware last week it just hits different its insane
F for the 999$ 😂
Backlight strobing is a game changer. It essentially eliminates motion blur and you see perfectly clear frames. The only downside is the reduced brightness.
yea but the pg27aqn with ULMB 2 enabled is still brighter than the lg oled 240hz at max brightness
THANK YOU !!!! FOR THE HONEST REVIEW
This was very informative, thank you!
LG 27GR95QE PRO TIP:
This may work for all monitors. Even if the HDR settings grays out the SDR settings. This tip can help you recalibrate your monitors for HDR even better.
All your calibratied SDR settings carry over when HDR is on or active.
If your using an HDMI cable to connect to your devices and receiving black crush/ too dark when using HDR.
Turn off HDR> in SDR picture settings turn your HDMI level to high (not low) turn back on HDR and restart your game app. Everything should be fix. This isn’t an option when using DP.
If you don’t believe all your SDR settings carry over to HDR. Turn your SDR settings completely RED than which over to HDR and see that the red is still active.
Also works for LG tv ? When i use hdr on hbo, everything turns black
@@vahidghiasvand9087 LG TVs or TVs in general usually don’t gray out options when HDR is active like monitors. I honestly don’t know why companies do this. So you should be able to adjust both HDR and SDR settings separately. Just remember to have HDR on/activated before adjusting the settings. Otherwise your just adjusting SDR.
Thanks
I'll stick with IPS because I play 8+ hours a day with a lot of games that have static areas for like mini-map etc and with OLED I would end up with major burn-in problems.
go mini led
Great video. I only wish you added some annotation on the screenshots demoing ghosting to guide to where it's visible.
Excellent comparison!
After switching to OLED i dont think i could ever go back to IPS. Colors on OLED are so insane.
Nah you could. I game between OLED and IPS all the time. IPS is still great.
@Ferrislilly Oled isn't that big difference, I may be looking wrong but I don't notice huge difference
I know oled is great but my iphone has oled screen and my monitor has VA and I don't see much of a difference and if it was at least similar price and not that led is 300$ and oled is 1000$
One thing that you didn't mention is HDR gaming which while only some games have great native implementation, you can make some games look amazing with Windows auto HDR. Overwatch here pops out even more when I enable HDR on my LG C3 which complements the clean cartoony artstyle. Just make sure to use HGIG if possible to retain the most accurate image.
That´s not true. Many Games have great HDR! Or do you play only on PC and it is that bad? On consoles HDR is on nearly every big Game, but also on smaller more and more. Auto HDR is crap. HDR is about Dynamic Range, more Colors and also more details. Fake HDR is not the same.
@@SonGokuTribut Yes I play on PC. HDR is way better on console. I only have maybe 4 games which look good in native HDR. About Auto HDR I moreso meant you can make older titles have a bit more pop. It's not a replacement to real HDR by any means. But seeing Tomb Raider Legend (a 2007 game) for example in any form of HDR is awesome.
perfect video as always brotha
5:35 +1000 thumb up, nice to see this being explained in detail
This is why we need BFI
Noticed on my aliwnware OLED that motion blur wasn't a crazy improvement compared to my older IPS. Better, but not as good as it could possibly be.
As far as I remember blurbuster says when you reach 1000hz, BFI is not needed anymore
@meissnerflux All* displays are sample and hold, that would include IPS or any other commonly used monitor technology. If you want a smoother experience, go enable motion blur or use a blurry IPS.
I believe the issue comes when we want both clarity and smoothness. This is where I think BFI fixes the problem.
So how do you feel about this vs something like the xl2566k in terms of competitive quality? I know you compared some shots of motion blur in the video, but does the xl2566k give an actual noticeable improvement in smoothness / performance with DyAc+?
Dyac does make the image much smoother at the cost of additional latency.
if you are really sweaty and your eyes dont die after playing with shimmering just get the benq
@@Jordy242 What additional latency? Dyac shouldn't add any, if it does it is negligible.
@@Jordy242 not only that, it also doubles the amount of targets with double imaging, so much more fun.
Yeah for the ultra sweaty players the XL2566K is best. 1440p is only for eyecandy not sweat. That's why none in competitive plays it.
You kind of looked like tech Tom Scott in this video. Great video as always!
And another good video, again. Keep it up! :)
@9:30 biggest reason I'll stick with my IPS. If you have 20/20 or better near vision you'll definitely notice the weird color fringing on text and get annoying. Also, annoying issues with ABL and using it as desktop monitor to display white backgrounds for long periods of time like spreadsheets other applications that don't support dark mode or themes.
can't you disable subpixel rendering on windows? it's not an issue on other operating systems like linux or macos
@@budbin With a 3rd party app you can set ClearType to greyscale, but font rendering is pretty bad then. It used to be good until XP, but from Vista/7 onwards it looks awful (I guess that's why MS removed the option). Not all applications honor this setting, so you'll still get subpixel rendering in some apps. It's also a system wide setting, it can't be configured per monitor (which sucks if you have an RGB and an BGR monitor).
I bought the 1440p LG monitor after your last video (i was playing with the thought before that) and I'm in love with that thing.
The monitor is just great (I actually like that it is not glossy, i don't want to see my reflection while gaming).
I was just stunned after switching it on the first time.
What is the exact model you are using?
Did you get any burn in?
@@osmanbicer1427GR95QE, most likely
@@inowtf4299not in a month lol come on, people are still so weird about OLED burn-in. In 2-3 years, sure, it’s inevitable, but IPS degrades too, in my experience eventually IPS glow becomes worse and image retention starts creeping in
@@inowtf4299 Its a myth, you can't burn them. Look at mobile phones that have used OLED panels for more than 10 years...
best explanations i’ve heard!
Really great comparison thank you
GREAT vid! one thing iId love to see in future comparisons is an on-screen tag stating which monitor we are looking at, at all times, as you some times refer to the/a monitor(s) as the "ASUS" or the "LG" and in some shots there are two ASUS monitors? you then sometimes refer to them by their model numbers (I have no idea which is which by this reference as i don't know the model numbers) then sometimes you refer to them as the "OLED" or the "IPS" so we now have 6 difference references for only two monitors...lol....all this confusion can be eliminated by showing 'OLED' onscreen when the OLED is onscreen, and same for IPS. Hope this helps. Appreciate it.
he differentiates the two in the first 15 seconds. just look at the stands.
Hi, I am interested in the comparitive power consumption usage of these two monitors. I hope you can consider adding this info in future videos. LG monitors seem to offer very decent built in speakers for their monitors, such as 2 x 7w or 2 x 5w speakers, and they sound pretty clear. Monitor speakers of other brands typically seem to around 2 x 2w, which probably makes them sound tinny. I mainly use headphones, but it's nice to use the monitor's speakers if they offer decent performance, and it's less stuff to plug in.
no problem to buy small acoustics for PC
dont let the watts deceive you
Watts have nothing to do with actual sound quality and no monitor has good speakers. They just sound bad. Like, really bad. 10$ aliexpress soundbars sound better.
@@RapidReelTV Yeah putting speakers in monitors is a waste of space and money tbh. Especially high end ones. If you can afford a $600 monitor you can afford $50 speakers that will sound infinitely better than anything built into a monitor.
My LG monitor is the only monitor I've ever had with speakers I was acceptable with as a main speaker. It's no audiophile speaker but all other monitor speakers are worthless which makes the LG stand out.
Fantastic and informative content as usual
Very Informative Video!
Could you give an update regarding Microsoft's update to cleartype to support RBG pixel layout monitors?
Did they announce something for that? That would be game changer.
Been using the AW3423DW since January. And even though I have an OLED tv, the change over to OLED on my monitor as well was just as mind blowing as when I did it on TV. It's literally night and day.
Why ?
@@chinezut1942 colors, contrast, 0.1ms response time, real blacks
Same here with my DWF
@@chinezut1942 Well I had an IPS before, and it's just not nearly as good when it comes to showing colors and blacks, things just look grey or washed out. I mostly play singleplayer these days, so having HDR on top of it is just next level.
@@vedomedo what about text quality? my monitor is for work and play and I am have held off going OLED due to burn in and the subpixel layout.
Can you also include the max and min response times and overshoot/undershoot on the graphs?
Which 27inch 2k resolution monitor has the best blacks and viewing angles? . 144hz+ must be
Shame about the quality of text and the potential screen burn-in on the OLED.
I work from home, which means I need to read a lot, and certain elements will be on screen for ~8 hours per day (which I don't feel like you accounted for in your 1.5 year burn in prediction), but also use my monitors for playing games.
I won't be switching to OLED and instead wait for alternative technology.
Thanks for the review.
Great video, thank you!
I learned so much. Thank you
I got my oled ultra wide when I was playing loads of star citizen… you can see every little star where as my lg ultra wide ips kind of just blurred them out compared to the oled. Cannot go back, it is too damn beautiful
Do you think the ultrawide oled you have would be good for competitive ish gaming
Cause I’m used to 27” so I’m looking to upgrade to 34” oled or 27” oled
I watched your video, I might've missed it because there's no stamps... but what's the difference in input lag between these two monitors?
