Hi did you get the iiyama?

Yea I know why the phones are cheap, “Chinese smartphone manufacturer Xiaomi has been called out for spying on personal user data using their smartphones. According to a new report online, the Xiaomi Redmi Note has been found to be sending photos and texts to a server in Beijing. This has further fueled speculations about the Chinese government spying on users overseas through phones made by Chinese manufacturers.”

@@stewiegriffin8696 I mean, sure it does. Do you even remotely believe that other smartphone producers don't do this kinda shit? Be it freakin' Samsung, Apple or any phone that uses the Google services aka EVERY Android os - EVERYONE spies on you. This is just how it is these days. You either accept that or.. buy one of those Linux phones that are still kinda ass. Or be disillusional and keep thinking that your specific brand doesn't do stuff like this, your choice~ I'd rather have Xi Jinping personally look through my hiking photos than Tim Cook tbh. 🙃

I have it, great monitor.

im looking on buying it but theres no good review on it..... is it good?

@@sayedamirulhaziq it is

Thanks for this. I was actually just about to hit the "buy" button, but will consider other options now

do you have complains regarding ghosting / slow response times?

Yes please.I wanna know what to expect from this monitor

@@uaespetsnaz2391 For what you pay for its very good. It's no LG monitor, and the backlight bleed is noticeable when the monitor is on and nothing is being displayed. However among the brands that currently sell these VA 144hz ultrawide panels, Xiaomi is one of the best at a very competitive price

@@diegoveloso3rd how bad is the backlight bleed? I bought an sceptre and it was quite bad, so I returned it and I'm looking for an ultrawide again.

@@1504Emily "quite bad" can be subjective from person to person. I cant give you any numbers but its not so bad (for me). It will either be a case of "you get what you pay for" or "incredible value". Eitherway seems like a win 👍

@@diegoveloso3rd thx, for the sceptre I think it actually was bad lol, it had big semi circular light bleed on top and bottom, left and right corners of the panel, reducing the brightness helped a bit, but when playing something like cyberpunk with black menus, it was still very noticeable and annoying

which is the best so far ?

Not the only one, the iiyama GB3466WQSU uses the same panel too.

@Assasino PRO gonna check it out, but I need something in depth like this one to be able to choose properly

@@Alexandra-ek7kh That's definitely a good price for this monitor, not taking into account the currency exchange rates and whatnot. To be honest, I like the Mi 34 a lot more than the Gigabyte mainly because of its minimalistic design, however, I cannot justify the additional price just for a better looking monitor. It's also a little painful for me to see the prices of monitors/components go down as I built a custom PC last year thinking I got the best components for my money only to realize that the new products coming out this year will perform better at a lower price (both GPUs and monitors) :(

@@CrashForce Prices for computer parts will keep fluctuating up and down any time. What matters tho is if what you have right now serves up the purpose for which you bought it. You don't need to be sad if there's a better option in the market compared to your current model. I'm running an APU playing Valorant on 30fps but I'm happy, cus i at least get to play with my friends :) (they all have 120Hz monitors lmao)

@@blurri_10 Yeah I totally agree with what you said there. I honestly haven't had any issues with my current components until I downloaded Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020. For some reason the game looks pixelated on my monitor unless I were to really zoom into the aircraft. Aside from this minor issue, the sim is also pretty hardware intensive as it often drops to well below 30FPS at high/ultra settings or when I'm travelling at a high rate of speed. The biggest problem I find when it comes to buying certain parts like monitors and GPUs is that you can't buy one high end component without the other component being high end (i.e. RTX3080 requires you to get a 4K screen to fully utilize the GPU for what it is) as well which can take a hit on your bank account sooner or later.

@@CrashForce exactly lol. You decide on a build, feel that you could have chosen a better GPU and BOOM. Everything that you decided goes back to zero lmao. I'm currently having the worst time deciding if I should pair R5 3600 with a 1660S or a 2060S lmao (1080p gaming 144Hz ofc, I can't afford 1440p rn lol)(3600 has gotten expensive suddenly on Amazon so I'll have to wait for some time until the authorized reseller is back with the actual prices.) Wish I could help you with that pixelated issue. Try asking it on Reddit, maybe someone could help? :)

Xiaomi is a multi-product company, they have so many product range, including TV, rice cooker, watches, speakers, phones, motorcycle, and home accessories, I have been using xiaomi phone for almost 3 years, my opinion is, it is pretty durable..

I have the the G34WQC too it’s a great monitor I’m from Australia though so not super helpful in getting you one

@@TheFridge09 any flickering on it ?

MASAKR4 none that I’ve noticed even with g sync turned on.. is that something i should be looking out for?

Got mine from Overclockers, it’s great 👍

You can preorder at overclockers UK, I received mine a few days after I "pre-ordered"

Agreed. I've been waiting for an in depth review of this monitor.

Exactly, haven't found a single decent review on this monitor

Quick google for my local stores and that model is on back order (not much of a wait though, so near enough to available) at around 15% higher price than I got the Xiaomi for Both are the same res/Hz/curve/panel type etc.. so I would assume same actual panel in a different shell. I'd be quite interested to see if it's worth the slight increase in cost.. even if identical though it'd still be great as it's easier to deal with warranties locally with a big brand like Gigabyte That said, Xiaomi opened an actual warehouse/office in Australia in 2019 and teamed up with small mobile phone repair partner stores around the country, so if I did have issues I can still make a direct warranty claim without any international shipping drama. Might even be able to drop it off at said little mobile store nearby as a middle-man without paying for shipping at all

Thanks for mention it, its way better compare to Xiaomi. AMD freesync premium, 9‎0% DCI-P3, 3‎50 cd/m2, VESA Display HDR400. Damn, slaying budget ultrawide 1440p. Hope this monitor overdrive perform good in 144Hz. Now we know this Xiaomi really not suit for gaming.

I purchased the Gigabyte G34WQC from Newegg for $399 a few weeks ago. It's my first Ultrawide 1440p monitor, coming previously from a 27" 1440p 144mhz panel. I greatly enjoy the ultrawide 21:9 for multitasking and gaming.

Looks like the UK doesn't like Xiaomi. lol

That depends on where your from. For Australia the Xiaomi is consistently less than 300gbp and the lowest in recent times was 270. That's if we get local stock. If we import directly from China it can get to around 240.

For me Xiaomi is cheaper, but I'm very concerned about ghosting

@Abdu sorry buddy, i ahve a gtx 970. cant do adaptive refresh rate. but i have heard that it works just fine

@Abdu It works, I have read someone tried it with 1080

I'd like to know which one is better out of these two as well

i am willing to bet that these monitors use the exact same panel, that is most likely sourced from Samsung. So there is probably not going to be much difference, they might be calibrated differently from factory but other than that they are most likely the same. I would wait and see Hardware Unboxed's review on the Gigabyte, which hopefully won't be much longer.

i am tossing between these two models as well a little undecided atm

i got my xiaomi for a 3080 and is beautiful!idk about gigabyte but the xiaomi is stunning

The xiaomi is better value and the xiaomi is also ultrawide so its better for editing

That MSI monitor is sold at $830 here in Australia, so it's still a win for Xiaomi

Hey there, I'm planning on getting the Xiaomi and also currently own an IPS (144hz 1080p) and have never used a VA. Do you mind telling me about your experience in gaming, productivity etc...? Mainly how's was your transition to this VA monitor? Like noticing Dark smearing and ghosting for example? Finally, I hate IPS glow, is that not present in it considering it's a VA? The monitor is only $370 after taxes here, so I'm very tempted to get it. Thanks in advance for your opinion :)

@@Bearded.Stranger Every now and then I look at a dark video with perceived smearing and immediately think, "oh, there's the VA smearing", but those videos look similar on my OLED. I think I'm just reacting to it on the Xiaomi because I'm expecting it. I've never really been bothered by the IPS glow, but I don't think there's any at all in this VA. I'm using it in a dark(-ish) room, with a lower-than-max brightness setting. I've been working from home for the last 7 months, and been using my OLED TV before buying this one, so I'm comparing the Xiaomi more to the OLED than to my work monitor (Dell 3440x1440 IPS) or my old personal monitor (LG 1920x1200 IPS) - but it looks good. Gaming-wise, I desperately need a better GPU - my 1660 Ti has no chance of handling 3440x1440 at 60+ fps. I will be looking at a new GPU in spring, provided the less power-hungry models drop - Geforce 3060 or Radeon 6700, maybe?

@@c99kfm Thank you for the reply. Based on your input I think I'll just go for it, as everything else that's appealing to me is $700 and more (Odyssey G7 & LG 34GN850). I considered an OLED, but they only come in massive sizes to even consider for daily usage. I feel currently with monitors you hit the diminishing returns quickly past the $400-500 price range, so the Xiaomi at $370 seems like the 'sensible' choice until monitors have OLED at a reasonable size and price haha. Good luck with GPU hunting the new ones are very promising for 3440x1440. Been working from home too for the same period, hence I'm upgrading my monitor since I'm building a new PC, got a 3080 ready waiting on a processor.

@@Bearded.Stranger Yeah, the OLED I'd been using is my 55" TV. It worked great, but I prefer the ultrawide aspect ratio for productivity. I might've tried a 3840x1600 ultrawide, if they were available at a reasonable price, but 3440x1440 has worked at work, and I'm quite happy with it at home now, as well. I might consider shelling out the $7-900 price range for a 3840x1600@120Hz OLED in ten years or whenever this Xiaomi stops working. It depends a bit on how my OLED TV works out, with burn-in and so on. With a 3080, I'm fairly certain you'll max out your new Xiaomi and will be very satisfied with your gaming experience. Game on! :)

same, and that one is advertised as gaming, this isnt so.. it might perform better, prob not as good as the top end 27 1440p 144 but... close, im happy with the omen x27 to be honest, just need a new 3080 to drive it...

@@arencorparencorp2189 I wish I went with that route too. But I have a 240hz 1080p TN and the colors are killing me. But then again - when I was buying - high refresh 1440p monitors barely existed

@@alexp3577 oh its a tn display, just 1440p super fast input lag 240hz, and the colors r decent (ofc ips is better) but with this i dont have to deal with bleeds neither with slower refresh, and has better contrast ratio, new tn panels are actually great for srgb colors, want hdr? well absolutely awful but..

@@arencorparencorp2189 I thought that way too, until I bought my gf a cheap 60hz 1080p IPS. The colors are so much better, now I want to switch. I think the main problem I have is white balance. My monitor is supposed to be good on SRGB too, but side by side with a decent IPS monitor - it just looks like trash. Yours might be better though.

@@alexp3577 prob i have better colors than cheap ips, they can be fairly horrible, also recent tn improved substantially on color (OBIOUSLY ips IS better so long its a decent pannel, color is the weakness of tn, so its not good, its decent while keeping tn benefits), i tested some cheap ips displays.... horrible, they look vivid but thats not, realistic, that's cranked up saturation heh
