Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

this is a feature that automatically dims the display when static images are displayed. It progressively gets dimmer in steps to prevent burn in. Its detection of image changing to reset the dimness has a high threshold.

Oled tech keeps improving and getting brighter. Pixels use a bgr color layout instead of rgb, so run the cleartype tuner on this monitor if you use it on windows. I do most of my work in terminal windows using consolas font in white-on-black color sch... Read More

The colors are vibrant, contrast is amazing, and the response time is instant. This thing not only gets bright, but is super colorful along with having rich *. All text is sharp.

Fast motion is buttery smooth and the aiming is accurate. Works well with smooth gsync compatibility. this is sufficient for gaming.

Cons

The longer the monitor is on the more frequent the black screen happens and the longer it lasts. Just your classic black rectangle with white text dead center of your screen. this monitor has panel protection, which means that it will require you to t... Read More

The screen goes black and sound is lost for about 5 seconds randomly every few minutes at first. This becomes highly annoying when trying to do desktop/productivity work such as programming and there is no way to turn that protection feature off. The ... Read More

The picture is great, everything else is not. Do yourself a favor and steer clear of this capricious piece of tech. The monitors is so frustrating that it's not worth it.

Quality

I love this monitor i use it for everyday tasks and as a oled the quality is great.

Absolutely love it and the quality of picture it provides.

At first, i was frustrated with the auto dimming to help prevent burn in.

So it is like working at a big screen tv while its cost was $950 in total + shipping.

Shipping

These shipping companies need to start getting charged for destroying items and they might be more careful.

Packaging/appearance

Was on the fence for a while on which oled monitor to get.

Competitiveness

I'm pairing this monitor up with a 6900 xt and a ryzen 9 5900x and the richness of the images on screen at 4k is jaw dropping.

It offers stunning 4k visuals with hdr support, and it has a fast 120hz refresh rate that makes it perfect for gaming.

Having the perks of an oled for a gaming monitor have been nice, but the low dpi when compared to a 27" qhd panel is apparent.

I know i do not notice a difference compared to my 144hz va panel.
