Wow, I was literally just looking to buy a new monitor and these were my two options. Thanks for sharing this!!
You are welcome
Which one are you going with?
I love the comparison between new lg 32 inch 4k wlod display coming this year vs this dell aw32 4k qd-oled monitor.
OK, you sold it to me at least. Was about to go for g7 but this.... Man the clarity and contrast is unbeatable
Awesome comparison. I did a similar comparison to the 27gr95qe vs aw2725df vs lg c1. Posted on the OLED_Gaming subreddit. The WOLEDs continue to shine in overall black levels in various environments, but man, that matte finish on the WOLED monitors is hideous! We need a glossy WOLED monitor! For now, QD-OLED fills the void, but the lack of a polarizer hurts its use in a bright room. To my eye, glossy WOLED > QD-OLED > matte OLED. But the colors are crazy on QD, no lie! Running a 48 C1 & AW2725DF w/ the 4090 PC now. Loving it so far.

Wow! This was great. Thanks so much
Thank you!
Very good side-by-side comparison test. I have been a big fan of OLED panels since they came out. I had heard that the mini LED panels were also very good and I was curious to see if they were worth looking into them. Your video just answered all of my questions. Keep up the good work and good luck with your channel!
Thank you sir.
Thank u so much for the content means world to me
Anything I can do to help.
@AllAboutTKK just had a rough day watching u talk about monitors and high quality content helped thank u so much. Also from the uk this alienware comes this month I believe and I've watched countless vids I say it unbiased you deserve more views
QDOLED is gorgeous
Actual facts.
How is it for text clarity / productivity? Should I wait for the new QD-OLED coming with 4K 27” and RGB subpixel? In2025?
@@mjregan88Turn off clear type and it’s all good.
Great comparison video!
Thank you sir.
I just ordered the aw3225qf last night too. Can't wait to get mine
Way to go!
Great choice of games! Haven’t played robocop yet but it’s definitely on my every growing backlog. Keep doing God’s work TTK!
Thank you sir.
it looks noticeably more clear either way the per pixel local dimming & good colours
Wow. This is exactly what I was wanting for education in the differences. Thank you very much.
Very welcome.
Many thanks for the review, what about normal usage, is the OLED good with text reading and browsing for example? Just thinking if I could use the Alienware for both gaming and programming, Thanks
Text is just gone. There isn’t a night and day difference is why I didn’t share that. The most stressful test in comparison will be the gaming.
I’m waiting for reviews on the Asus 32 inch QD OLED before choosing between this or Asus. It seems like most buyers love this panel, but there are some that really show its issues.
I have the Alienware 27in monitor and i absolutely love this thing - colors pop so much its a really good purchase imo
For PC gaming or Console
@RoyalBoyle78 mainly for console use as of now but I did try it on my PC and WOW the 224fps is insane
@@xxblindchild I'm on console, I'm looking to grab the G7 or G8. Leaning more towards the G7
@@RoyalBoyle78g7 will be better because you’re limited to console specs. If you plan on getting a Pc get the g8
@@JR-jp7mi thanks brother
good video, is it possible to know if you think this monitor looks as good as the S95C, LG G3/G2, or A95L in your opinion?
Absolutely will aim at putting something by together.
@AllAboutTKK make another video but this time aim for best case scenario what i mean is choose the best setting on the neo g8 , not out of the box experience(as in all reviewers say that neo g8 has one of the worst out of the box experiences out there)
I would love to see how 2K and Madden looks on that QD OLED! I’d prefer it flat but that curve is very minimal! Great content bro!
Thank you sir. I’ll see what I can do, I will post my independent review of this monitor by Wednesday and will see if I can get either 2k or Madden on it.
Best comparison i have seen yet tysm man. My boy has the neo G8 and was wondering if he should sell his to buy an Oled, this might convince him to do so.
Thank you much sir.
I would love to see this comparison also in a more bright room, not just in ideal conditions for oled.
I owned the Neo G8 and now I own the AW3225QF. I had to return the Neo G8 due to ugly scan lines and when that happened, the screen was divided in two with ugly-big scan lines. In 3 weeks that I had that monitor, it did happen 3 times. I tried different cables and still the problem was not fixed so I had to return it and I opened up my wallet again to buy the Alienware AW3225QF which is impressive. This is my second OLED monitor and the first one is my Sony A80j TV which it is also impressive and fantastic.
Glad you love it. Happy to say in my year of owning the G8 Neo I have not had that issue.
likely caused by DSC
I finally found my monitor! That Alienware is magnificent! I originally was on the fence about the Odyssey, i took the jump, I didnt like it and then i turned around and gave it my husband instead. My current monitor is a 1080p 240hz, alienware and I absolutely love it. This will definitely be my next upgrade to 4k finally. Thank you. ❤
Thank you.
Excelente video
Thank you.
Every time I get doubts and anxieties about my AW OLED monitor burn in I watch this video and change my mind 😀
lol.
I have the Neo g8 would love to trade it off for a 180-240hz 1440p 32 inch monitor lol great video though shows the difference in them for sure !
Nice Video as always :) i go for the Neo G8 32 4k. Brighter and no Burn in :) Enhjoy ur OLED.. Thank you!
Thank you.
Great comparison side by side with content. I don't get why other youtubers don't do that but just compare on paper
They might not have the inventory, some people might get stuff sent and have to send it back whereas to me, I’ve owned this one on the left since last year.
Does the neo g8 have the contrast enhancer set to “on” out of the box? I use that with mine and it makes the color much better and less washed out. I’ve been thinking if it’s worth upgrading from a neo g8 just on color alone since they’re so similar otherwise and you could argue the neo has its own strengths like the stronger curve (which I personally enjoy). I also own the Alienware widescreen oled with 165 hz and I feel like both monitors look great side by side it’s hard to tell which is better
The wide screen isn’t the same though. And no, contrast enhance is not on by default.
Thank you for this comparison. On paper the alienware is the monitor of my dreams : 4K, 240hz, Oled, Curved ! But I'm wondering if I should buy it as soon as possible or wait for the other Oled monitors (samsung, asus, gigabyte, LG with MLA oled panel). The alienware will be the only curved one while all the others will be flat, too bad. Otherwise please do a demo on a racing game like Assetto Corsa Competizione or Automobilista 2. And of course a demo on Doom Eternal!!!!!! Thank you from France.
Max Luv to France, thanks for your support. Will see what we can do.
I think you should wait until 2025
@@JR-jp7mi too late... it will be delivered next week
Did yours come with scratches from the foam cover it ships with on the screen ?
Not one
2, refunded, sad because otherwise gorgeous
It will be intersting to compare Alienware AW3225QF with the future Asus ROG PG32UCDM. Same panel, one curved, one flat.
hi! is the fan audible on the alienware? thank you
No, no distractions at all or really any notice.
QD OLED just makes everything pop so much more. Alienware for the win❤💪🏆
Where did you get that ryu street fighter wallpaper?
You should be able to find it online.
Bought both monitors. Love both displays but did myself a favor and returned the G8. The Alienware AW3225QF just offered more: updated firmware, better HDR, brighter nits, better blacks in black scenes, better color accuracy and calibrated right out of the box, offered 3 year warranty on screen burn in vs 1 year with the Samsung, also runs quieter and cooler. Nothing against Samsung but Dell definitely stepped up their game!
Amen you have my respect, only the real who have touched both can say what you said. Max Luv.
The local dimming on G8 crushing the bright circle lines. Is there a mode to lower the local dimming strength?
Yes.
Absolutely love my Neo G8. The only drawback of this display is that it is not OLED that's it. Doom Eternal is good for testing HDR in my opinion.
Agreed.
See if you can also test HDR in Forza Horizon/Motorsport (just $5 in PC Game Pass), and Gran Turismo 7 if you have a PS5.
Does the Alienware AW3225QF in stand-by mode start from every connected source or does it only start from the last one used?
There is a setting for it to focus on one port or any.
Had a neo G8 for my 4090, now have a LG g3 42 inch and it completely blows the Neo G8 out of the park in terms and hdr and colours. 120 fps is also fine as I run all my games in max graphics settings still super smooth and the immersion from the size is amazing
G3 doesn’t exist in 42” brother, there is no MLA 16:9 that small. C3, maybe. But I would agree, the contrast levels of an OLED are virtually flawless.
I went with the Neo G8 which I bought earlier this week, I didn’t want to risk a chance of running into burn in on the OLED monitors, I have an OLED tv but I use that for watching movies/shows only
That is not a realistic concern. But you got yourself a great monitor, congrats.
I’m actually pretty surprised that the QD OLED is holding its own brightness wise with that G8. That G8 is a bright panel isn’t it? I am going to try the PG32UCDM. I’ll be coming from a PG27UQ. I hope it’s a worthy upgrade.
Thanks
You’re welcome.
high on life comparison that game is very colorful
Just curious…why Asus new 32inch 4k oled monitor PG32ucdm should be better than the aw3225qf? There’s at least 300$/€ difference between the two of them.
I have no clue, I’m sticking with what I have though. For one I prefer the curve screen and this is the only one that offers it. Of both those panels they both receive FW updates and so no concerns there. The Asus might have another level on the heatsink, but this AW doesn’t suffer from any radical ABL.
How does the picture quality look compared to your A95L? Stupid question, but I'm curious 🤔
I’m equally curious
not a same level, A95L easy to kill these monitor.
This monitor is the egg laid by A95L
Is local dimming enabled on G8 out the box?
Mine was.
@@AllAboutTKKawesome, just making sure! 🕺🤩
How's the small fonts rendering on Alienware AW3225QF? Like these on the comments section here. Any signal of fringing texts or blurred fonts?
Will look into but no clue? Used this so far strictly in the space of gaming so far,
@@AllAboutTKK I got the Odyssey G8 UW (1440p) and it looks awful. They're all using some sort of QD Samsung panels. So, I'm returning the G8 UW and this new Alienware could be perfect, but I really need better font rendering.
@@evilgeneral yes. Every one of the QD-OLED belongs to Samsung. All the WOLED belong to LG. Agreed on the font, heard it’s not the best on the model you have
Im looking at getting the samsung neo g8 I've been doing research I've head there a scanline issue which I don't really mind. As long the picture is great im just look at my opinions
Cool.
I’ve had zero scanline issues with mine
would be interesting to see something with more dimming zones compared like odyssey neo g9 57 or something it has 2304 dimming zones I believe I am waiting this year for one of those dual displays oleds I wanna see what 480hz oled is like and still have the option to run 4k @ 240hz
Do those come 32” QD-OLED? I think those are WOLED.
ya they are w-oled I don't like qd oled cause it has no polarizer so the blacks are raised and not actual black like the w-oleds but the lg panels coming in 2nd half of the year will be 1300 nits peak brightness and have a different subpixel layout rgbw instead of wrgb also the asus models will support bfi up to at least 120hz but I am going for whichever model release first LG 32GS95UE or Asus PG32UCDP 4k 240hz 1080p @ 480hz oled @@AllAboutTKK
dang i literally just bought the Samsung for $899 at the store and thought it was the best thing ever lol especially 4k offeering at 240hz, and I like bright monitors. I do have HDR turned off becomes it dims it a lot it seems or maybe its jsut me. Is it worth going to the Alienware? I am worried about the panel burning out or not lasting as longg, but for the price I didnt think I could beat it. Do you guys think its worth returning and making the switch? I am new to the whole gaming world so this is my first big monitor purchase after my first pc build as well. thanks!
Dims the overall screen probably because there is no HDR content on at that time. Best set for auto on my findings, let windows activate it when there is content running HDR. Yes I would absolutely suggest going to the Alienware, if you can afford the 3-4 hundred after tax difference that is. Burn in isn’t a serious concern like back 10 years ago when OLED hit the scene.
@@AllAboutTKK if it’s worth the price, I have no problem spending the extra. Usually I can never tell if there’s huge gaps in visuals but my jaw hit the ground just looking at the Destiny menu screen comparison. I know OLED are known for having richer blacks but typically not as bright if that plays a factor here? I will say I love how bright the Samsung is but sucks HDR doesn’t work I guess? I always wanted to try it but had no idea why it darkened everything up. Also, I do use AMD and if it will matter with the Alienware being GSync? I hate it looks like you can only order directly from Dell right now as I would love to go see it somewhere or buy on spot. Just from the 2 days I’ve even had the Samsung it feels like I upgraded my GPU just from how much better it looks from my past monitor 😂
You’ll only get burn in if you leave your monitor on with the same picture for like months in a row
God i wish burn in didnt exist id buy this immediately, it looks so good. Just cant buy another oled after the aw3423dw which got burn in in 8 months.
I'd imagine that with some tweaking, you could improve the contrast a bit more on the Neo. A lot of the footage looks washed out, perhaps thats just how it shows up on camera.
It looks washed out because its not self emissive like oled
@@craighopkins4496 no you are wrong , it needs to be calibrated is all. I have teh Samsung odyssey neo g8
You can tweak the Neo yes, as I mentioned in the video but this monitor claims to fam is its peak brightness which is also its downfall also because it achieves that brightness from its Mini LED panel. It’s just not of the same caliber as the Alienware.
i think i cant bear the magenta blacks of qd-oled, they are too distracting as if its a ips display, i think i ll go for w-oled
Cool.
Good video bro! And damn, those Lions… Cost me a lot of money…🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
Did you use windows 11 hdr calibration app?
No sir no software tweaks, even at the windows level outside of turning games to highest settings possible for fluid game play.
Thats for AutoHDR iirc and the games he is showing have native HDR built in. I would still recommend that app though and set up a HDR profile for it
Copy that Boss thanks for the comparison my man
Well the problem in Dubai I can get it with almost the half price because they doubled it to almost 2k$ while the g8 is less than 800$
На 19:18 все сразу становится видно) 😂
Hey brother. Would you say the colors on the Neo G8 are better more vibrant?
Opposite.
@@AllAboutTKK wow! On my iPhone 13 Pro seen at 4k it’s looks the other way around. The bro G8 looks amazing. Man I’m so on the fence I also have a 4090.
@joeyh3291 nah brother, a QD-OLED is as pure and vibrant as it gets with colors. G8 is nice though, but depending on cost for $200 more get rid of that blooming.
@@AllAboutTKK man I hope I make the right decision lol. Thanks again for the reply. I was waiting on someone to make this video and you did I’m subscribing!
@joeyh3291 thanks.
I have been looking for this exact comparison for 2 days thank you bro! Samsung is way too bright the Dell is a no brainer! liked and subbed!
Thank you sir.
that lg display is so distict with its jet black blacks yet clear reflective, before the antiglare even turns on it looks flat lol
either lg or qd-oled not sure but i like it
19:40 crazy diff
Facts.
Neo g8 came out in 2022 that’s when I got mine unless I got an older version
I did, I marked years for ownership for me.
So I just bought a very high end rtx 4090 build with the best i9 and all that. I also bought the Alienware monitor from this video. My question is should I be using the HDMI 2.1 cable or should I be using the display port 1.4? Also which one is better to use??? Thanks so much for whoever answers this! I am clueless and need guidance lol
DisplayPort.
Display port transmits more data. I damn you got a 4090….
Looks like you just have a lot of money to throw around and don't do your research properly. Display port is always superior.
Can u test alan wake 2 on both
We need more mini LED monitors coming out. I just got a budget one and its coming tomorrow at a price of £340, only 334 zones I think but all reviews paint it at a very good budget HDR monitor. Of course it wont come close to my AW3423DW or OLEDs in general but for my brother they are better as he plays thousands of hours on the same games and will just burn them in quickly. The monitor in question is the aoc q27g3xmn, think its around $280. 1300nits fullscreen, very good dimming algorithm, 180hz, 27inch, 1440p. Should be good to introduce my brother to HDR without breaking the bank for him ( would have gotten a Neo series but we are moving and having to make an entire desk set up + getting a 7900xtx so decided to grab this instead of waiting ). Great content as always and great showcase of how different each tech is.
Thank you.
I have the g8, but might wait until 2025 lineup
Looks like the Neo g8 gets washed out with white, kinda the issue I’ve had with it
If only oled could show white instead of pink. Choose your poison. 1. Blooming 2. Pink whites.
This is true. MLA offers the whites, but doesn’t offer the color potential. Thats another equation also.
@@AllAboutTKK The search for perfection will continue. No pink whites,no blooming,more colour volume. Motion on the neo g8 looks very close to the QD oled motion.
@raymondhines5964 motion has been figured out, it’s all within margin. It would take a QD-OLED with MLA for perfection. Not gonna happen because they are the opposition.
Tell me im looking at this wrong. 1. I like that the samsung has an audio jack and blue tooth. Does the dell have it? 2. Samsung can go much brighter. Is the dell bright enough tho? My room is right beside a window so im worried dell wont be bright enough since it has a glossy finish. 3. With some tweeking, can the Samsung come looking as good as the dell? In conclusion, the blue tooth, jack and brightness plus the 1000r curve points to Samsung as the winner. Now dell has better color. But if Samsung can be tweeked. Does that mean samsung is still better?
The Neo G8 does not live on the same planet as any of these QD-OLED. Brighter it is but the brightness isn’t without the flaw of awful blooming in comparison or loss of detail. Both can be tweaked but one isn’t the other. I’m not sure what you’re looking at to tell you if you are wrong, if you are in a pinch for affordable options then look into the MSI variant that I just featured on my channel, it is $900 and is the same QD-OLED panel, QD-OLED is in totality superior over MINI LED.
Why not both? I ordered my AW3225QF, and gonna keep my G8 as second monitor. And fyi, the neo G8 released in 2022, not 2023.
I put the year 2023 because that’s when I got the monitor, did two videos on these and offered that as context.
is that the A95L at the back?
Yes it is.
@@AllAboutTKK wow, im surprised to see how much better the A95L and other Tv qd oleds handle the raised pink blacks inherent to qd oled compared to the monitor counterparts. Definitely my biggest gripe when it comes to the technology
In denmark the alienware is almost 2x the price. Would you say its 2x the screen? Im only playing video games.
I would ask why are you looking at either of these, so many more affordable options if all you’re doing is just gaming.
Regret buying the AW3423DW. THIS is the monitor I've been wanting for! Ordered as selling the 34
Congrats good sir!
man i still hesitate - i know OLED this OLED that - but, i like to use my monitor for everything , u know. SO from graphics stuff to gaming on the same day. And burnin is still a thing.
I don’t think there is one realistic, nor review guy but legit real owner like myself on YT claiming they have burn in issues. You’re not talking about watching ESPN, I read hundreds of comments like yours where people are saying “hey I’m doing this and that” that’s all what these monitors are intended, why would “graphics stuff” be an issue bro? Just think about it. HUBS on video games that’s why they have pixel, shift, etc. I mean you can go with the lesser option if you wanna but I don’t see the scare. Buy a warranty if you are, spend them little couple of dollars and have a piece of mind. Scared money don’t make none.
I sold my Samsing Neo G8 atm. Iam confused because of lot of bad revivews for bugs with AW3225QF. PG32UCDM Asus monitor could be great but I want to buy Alieanware before, but now I dont know. Asus seems to be more better feature and stable quality. Please help if you can in this decision. Thanks in advance!!!!
Asus lost my business, couldn’t understand the cost on some of their flagship options. Their answer to the G8 Neo was like $3000. I think their variant of this QD-OLED will be full matte.
@@AllAboutTKK SpawnPoiint has review. Seems to be glossy. Iam still interesting your opinion. Thanks for help!
@CS-amegmondo that is awesome if it’s glossy!
The g8 has dropped to 899 now. Do you think that would justify the purchase over the alien ware?
No. $900 you can wait a little time and catch a sale price on the AW. That’s only a $300 difference, there is enough value to wait a paycheck or two to stack the extra $300 for the AW, but that’s my take.
Yo my G. 😊
Morning OG.
Free game you could show is Fortnite - Free, Ray tracing graphics
I own this Neo G8, and clearly the oled alienware image looks so much better in this comparison, but the samsung can be tuned to look much better… why not compared fine tuned models? It cant be that complex, its a monitor :)
What do you mean why not compare fine tuned models? Because this video is an out of the box comparison.
@@AllAboutTKK yes you said so in your video and my ask is, can you do a comparison with the neo G8 with tuned settings.
Subscribe and turn on channel notifications. That video was made and uploaded yesterday. This is a process. How many KZheadr’s are comparing these two monitors? I’d love to accommodate but I’d also love to have the time to be able to spread the content out. As I said in this video and in my comment, “this video was for out of the box”. Max Luv
Yes but does it makes you more happy? It’s all specs and technology. In my youth we used to play on shitty monochrome CRT monitors and I can tell you that I had more fun in those days playing games than today.
Haha. Your days, man those are MY DAYS homie, lol. Yeah I’m satisfied
Nice comparison. From what I've seen and keeps me from pulling the trigger is that purple haze is changing the color from the original color to original color+ purple haze. So, blueberries end up being purple berries.
Nah, blue isn’t purple on a QD-OLED, about the only color that has any type of tint variance is white text to be more pink: 1. It’s over expressed on a camera 2. It’s something you really only notice when looking at 2 next to each other Which is about as real as going to a retail store and seeing 50 TVs on the wall when you’ll only have one. I said that to say that this is also a gaming monitor, the alternative will be looking for the options LG displays makes, but nothing Mini LED will compare because there just are too much washed out color representation. Thank you for the compliment on the video. Just wanted to add some feedback to your mention.
The lower contrast on the G8 almost makes it look like there’s a white film - a haze over the entire screen. On the OLED it’s like clearing off the fog on your windshield. It’s like the image has depth.
You can adjust your Nvidia control display settings and your black light level on the g8
why does the alienware screen appear colored even when it turns off a red tint?
Standard with QD-OLED Gen one panels at least.
The Neo G7 is down to $800. Given that i don't really game much anymore, I might get that.
😂 The G7 was $450 last month, you missed out
@@Velly2g he thinks about full power G7 NEO 4k 165hz VA panel mini LED... this is 800-900 monitor

@@trumpameri1638he's not BSing. You can buy direct from them if you catch a sale. The G7 neo was $280 at one point. G8 neo $520 ish.
@@jesserittenhouse2722 yes that is strange to many different variations of G7 monitor
I can get the g8 for $860. Is it worth shelling out for the oled?
$860 must be an open box price from the current sale cost of $999. Keeping in mind this monitor was $1499, yes at $1200 the OLED is worth it.
@AllAboutTKK yes that is open box price. Reseller on ebay. That was converted australia price to usd. I'm guess the AW will be at least $1300-$1500 usd in Australia.
@@ivana6141 okay eBay. Makes sense. I like my stuff new. That conversion of used depends on sellers use and how careful they were, the product is currently new in the states for $999, for me the piece of mind having a brand new with at least manufacturing warranty pushes me from eBay, buying used from a store is different because in most cases they still honor a manufacturer warranty as if it were bought new. Used from another person for me with the current new price would have to be the equal of $700
@AllAboutTKK yes sometimes peace of mind is worth that bit extra. Seller has over 21k sales with 100% feedback. Says factory second and honor factory warranty
@ivana6141 nice. Sounds like maybe a go.
anyone looking for the G8, I literally JUST bought one and it was 960.00 after shipping...tax...everything.
Shouldn’t be any shipping charge for that, just saying. $960 for that is still too much, it’s 2 years old. Can get MSI QD-OLED for the same ballpark. Great share but just offering some subjective material.
I had used the g8 and it looked completely washed , the picture was bright but totally washed when hdr enabled especially
Yep!
You can adjust the micro settings of the g8 on the Nvidia control settings as well
@@JR-jp7mi there was no setting that made this monitor look any good
Only real owners gonna know this. Lol.
MPG 321URX will undercut them all by their cheaper price and get all market share if they can simply restock it to capture all the demand. Alienware curved seems to not have any demand.
I’ve also heard absolutely no FW updates of any kind with that one too, in addition to no kind of potential DV support. And I personally prefer the curve so this was actually a strategy buy for me vs just a what I could find.
Wow, so far no one can single handedly claim the crown at this time for qd-oled. Personally I am excited about the woled since I don’t have a dedicated dark room and so glare from lighting is the deal breaker for me. I guess I am thankful that there are no stocks, so no impulse buying for me. I need one that would work in a bright room. Curve is good for the eyes especially for long hours of looking at the monitor. The price tag though, too much for the many drawbacks/shortcoming. MSI did the right thing with pricing.
@ceuser3555 $900 is a dream price point but when it comes to lack of features and support, you start to consider what paying just a few hundred more gets you. $1200 is sensational, actually, considering G8 Mini LED was $1500. I bought a BenQ last year that’s on my channel in my Chewlix arcade cabinet that was $1200 and it wasn’t even Mini LED.
@@AllAboutTKK good point, noted.

Strange question man. It’s Alienware no matter the cost, I’m always going for the best.
@@AllAboutTKK no strange question, because the G8 was at 1200!$ And now on discount as a casual who watches your channel for guidance I was thinking “more expensive more better” glad you answered
@@MajinBULK g8 is years old man, it also was $1500 at launch. Go after the OLED if it can be afforded. Thats my reply.
Oleds and burn in... that's the problem with these panels in a long term prospect.
And text clarity. For those who work with text, the fringing might be no-go.
Burn in isn’t a serious concern anymore. Late to reply to your comment sorry. But the panels themselves have preventative measures to help with those concerns.
@@AllAboutTKK But why do they offer a burn-in warranty?. I think the problem is still there but in less extent due to the better cooling solution.
@@FallingESP nothing to do with cooling solutions. More to do with pixel refresh technology. Image moving technology.
@@FallingESPid argue they offer burn in warranty now because they’re more confident that burn in won’t happen. If they knew everyone was gonna get burn in then they’d be responsible for replacing a lot of monitors.
Something to point out to everyone is that the matte display protects your eyes, the OLED of course it will look better but Samsung has think ahead and that is the reason of the matte display. I consider OLED better for watching movies only, because I do have an OLED on my iPhone 14 pro and I had to put a matte display due to the reflection. Either way thanks for the amazing comparison and testing this in my favorite game, Destiny 2.
Thank you for pointing that out because you are correct. I am not totally against Matte, personally, but it appears to be frowned on from OLED, Samsung is taking it to not only their variants of this monitor for this year but also their flagship tv too.
I hate that Alienware purple filter.
That’s not specific to Alienware, anyone familiar with QD-OLED TVs will find it familiar. But i feel ya, just wanted to make that known.
