I have a suggestion. I'm an Odyssey G9 49" user and a MacBook Pro user as well (I have both Intel I9 and a M1 versions). When you mentioned "60Hz" it lit a yellow light. you are using a low-speed Usb-C cable FOR SURE. I've spent some money on dozens of different cables until I got 5120 x 1440 at **120Hz** (higher than you!). So maybe you do can take the full glory out of it if you buy the right high-end cable. Please give it a try and hopefully you can come with another video specifically over the MacBook experience! Cheers and great vid!

Have you tried using betterdisplay for scaling? I managed to get custom resolutions between 5140x1440 and 7680x2160 working with 120hz with my m2 pro macbook. Currently running it at 6080x1710 and 120hz. The trick was to use displayport 1.4 instead of HDMI 2.1 and create a virtual display with betterdisplay and mirror it to the G9 + creating custom refresh rates for the virtual display. I know m2 and m1 are different when it comes to external display support, but you should at least be able to run it at higher resolutions at 60hz?

Nice review. I am on the fence about this monitor. I am currently using an old 32" 4K Lenovo display which I only recently switched out form the Samsung 49" Neo G9. Like you, I have a Hexcal Studio desk stand, so it was helpful to see the relative width of the 57" monitor relative to the Hexcal stand. When using the 49" Neo G9, I had to place my speakers far apart and toe them in to get better spatial sound, and switching to a 32" monitor, I'm able to place my speakers much closer together which has drastically improved the sound. I am concerned about the 57" forcing me to place the speakers even further apart, and to be honest, this is my biggest concern. Right now, I am resigned to waiting for the new batch of 32" OLED's due out in 2024, but I am severely tempted to just pull the trigger on the 57"... decisions decisions

This was indeed very usefull! Thank you. The color fringing and the risk of burn is the only thing keeping me away from the Oled G9, so it was good to get the less optimal areas of the miniled model. With a 90/10 work/game ratio use, the strong curve and the viewing angle is a bit of a showstopper for me unfortunately. Already have a Samsung 49" 5120*1440 VA panel and it seem it doesnt give that much af an visual upgrade with miniled - I am sure this is some, but not as much as Oled. Couldnt run this full resolution anyway, until I upgrade my other hardware. When that day comes, I am sure there have been some optimizations in both Miniled and Oled.

I'd love to see the next version or two of these. Make it OLED with upcoming better subpixel arrangement and spacing, BRIGHT, great cooling, tighter curve, DP2.1, and the vertical height of a 16:9 32inch monitor. 800R might still take a lot of desk width, so maybe something like 600R would be about right. That might be worse for productivity, but it'd be amazing for sims...if there's a gpu that can drive it well. That'd be endgame gaming monitor for me. This is a step in the right direction though, but for now I'll stick with a LG 45 Ultragear.

Man, I know investing in a nice monitor is a good thing, but seeing you use it as the same resolution as the 49" at $1,300 less hurt me a little. haha I'm still a fan of IPS, so I'd buy this in a heartbeat if it were a 144Hz IPS panel with G-Sync. Like you, I'd use it more for productivity and video editing. I went from an AW3420DW (3440x1440) to a 42" LG C2 and while OLED is amazing and the vertical resolution made video editing so nice, I just wasn't comfortable, so I'm now on a 38" AW3821DW (3840x1600) and it's the perfect sweet spot for me and the best option for me available. I'd even "settle" for a 5K2K 40" curved 144Hz IPS G-Sync panel but I don't see that happening anytime soon.

Good to see a creator centric view of this monitor. The comment re sharing screens on things like zoom calls is an interesting observation, I’d not considered that previously. Is there no work around for that! Eg, create a smaller section of the monitor that is a more normal size/resolution that most folk would have and just share that? I’m sure what I’ve seen elsewhere was suggesting that this monitor is very flexible with the way you can divide the screen up.

@JZStudiosonline 6 ай бұрын

There's a side by side mode where it acts as 2 monitors... side by side. Why no one uses it and then complains about not having it I don't understand. You just plug a second cable in and then hit a hotkey and it swaps between side by side and full screen in a couple seconds. Outside that, most screen sharing lets you pick program windows to share, selected screen area, or monitors instead of trying to show all of your monitors at once. It's a super dumb complaint with easy, obvious solutions. The fact he said a guy sold him one because he couldn't figure out screen sharing is ludicrous.

This sounds like an ultimate productivity display. Hopefully they don't change it to OLED otherwise it would be destroyed relatively quickly in productivity use case. RTINGS runs a few OLED ultrawides (21:9) and their are getting some major burn in. Apparently if your content in full screen only displays at center (e.g. as 16:9) that causes it more burn in (as it drives that part of monitor more brighter). Mini-LED gives this a chance to survive longer (and you want that for this price).

There is something you could do on this that you can't do on a smaller screen. The bigger your screen, the more you can zoom out on a spreadsheet and still see the content, enabling you to see more of the sheet on your screen, at the same time. I came here because I have a single sheet spread between two 27 inch monitors, because it didn't fit on one of them.

This is frustrating. I switch from a 49" CRG9 to a 38" AW3821DW beca5the CRG9 lacked vertical space. And now this comes out.

My question with this monitor in relation to productivity is do actually get any more reel estate compared to a 5120x1440 monitor? I know you are running that resolution because your computer cant handle full resolution. But lets say you could run that full resolution, wouldnt you have to scale it to be able to read it? It seems like you would have to scale it to what is essentially the same size as 5120x1440, which means you're basically just getting a 5120x1440 monitor with higher pixel density, and not able to actually fit more on the screen

depends on your eye sight and distance, i like to scale 3840x2160 on a 32" to 125%, its still a bit more real estate than 2560x1440 (that would be a scaling to 150%). but you get the sharper image in any case.

Doesn't your laptop have a Thunderbolt 4 port? Just get a Thunderbolt to DisplayPort cable and you'll be able to use full resolution at atleast 60hz, and maybe even 120hz with that laptop.

4:00 The video has black bars encoded (forced 16:9 basically). It can be beneficial because subtitles take up only the bottom black part and wont cover the image.
