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

Price

The real wide screen monitors (like 46 inches wide by 14" tall) cost about $1300.

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

I had wanted this monitor for a year but couldn’t justify shelling out $1400, but when it went 50% off, i had to get it and i h... Read More

Shipping

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

Spent over a week waiting for this to come in the mail when it was half off on here, but i was disappointed to find out that my... Read More

Packaging/appearance

We liked it, so we ordered another one, but the box was destroyed by ups.

Competitiveness

Again all modern oled displays do this, but some brands like samsung have a much lower threshold, which makes it less noticeabl... Read More
