I can see that, colors are saturated in a good way for gameplay. It wouldn't affect my workflow because I created my presets long ago for photos and video so I would just adjust the same way your ears would adjust to new speakers. I would think after calibration you could get it usable but I'm personally sticking with my ultrawide for editing.

How is the switch from the AW38 to this AW32? I've been holding out for a 5k2k 40" OLED monitor for a long time, but the 39" isn't coming out until the end of next year. I am debating picking up two of these for a stacked setup, replacing my AW3821DW and LG 27GN950.

@ahmedabed2357 night and day difference. Color quality is off the charts, removing the Wrgb white filter adds to much life to the image. Contrast is elevated due to the proper out of box calibration. Motion clarity and responsiveness is in a whole different league. Pixel density is so far above and beyond they're not even comparable. It really almost feels like a completely different (and better) display technology.

Hey. Can you please share measurements like color temperature and deltaE/avg.deltaE for the DCI-P3 and also sRGB color gamut. Please not only for the "Standard" preset but also for all the other presets. The "Creator" preset with Gamma set to 2.2 is allegedly the most accuracte. Can you chheck and compare it to the Standard Preset please. It would also be nice to have measurements for the different HDR modes like True Black 400 and Peak 1000. I think these highly detailed information and measurements are missing from most reviews. I would highly appreciate it since this is what matters.

In depth measurements are something I'm not really sure how to get which is why I say at the end I don't consider myself a "professional monitor reviewer" but do the best I can.

@@JacobDarkOfficial Thank you for the reply. No worries thats fine. You need a good colorimeter like the "ColorChecker Display Pro/Plus HL" which go for around 300$ and also calibration software like DIsplayCal or Calman. Before doing the analysis and calibration with this device and the software, it is very important to set it up correctly as this device is very light sensitive and select the right options and profile in the software. Otherwise results wont be accurate . There are plenty of guides out there if you are interested. Keep it up! Kind regards

I have some noticeable banding on my AW3225QF with dark grays. It's most visible and distracting in a black room with all lights turned off, but is still visible with lights on and looks like reflections off the screen when panning the camera around in games with a lot of dark gray content, such as Resident Evil 2 Remake. I checked some dark gray test slides on KZfaq and determined that on my unit, this is a noticeable issue up to about 25% gray, but is most obvious below 12% gray. I am wondering if you or others have this issue as well. My Aw3423dwf doesn't do this. It only has some really minor dark grey banding that is hardly a distraction, but this new 4k panel looks far worse in this regard. At 5% gray, it looks like one of those old LG CX TVs almost with dark patches and stripes all over the place. Such a shame, as it is an otherwise very uniform and amazing looking monitor.

It's so strange that there exists an HDR400 monitor that is actually decent at HDR. Usually HDR400 certification is a sick joke. I don't game very much any more, and I don't watch movies or TV shows on my computer, so I'm probably going to watch to see if some of those mini-LED monitors come down in price. As nice as this looks, it's more expensive than my TV.

I have one of these on order. I will use it to play MW3 with my newly built by me 4090/7800x3d. It is replacing my Samsung 32" Odyssey G7 240hz. I will set it so that it turns off after 5 minutes if not being used....I do this with all my monitors. Almost went with the 27" AW2725DF at 360Hz/1440P. But decided I'll see what fps I can get at 4k. If it's too low...I'll get the 27" instead.

Hey, I would appreciate your input about the AW32 oled 240hz, did you keep it or went with the 27 inch 360hz 1440p version? I am considering the aw32 , currently im on the ultrawide 34 oled version. But play MW3 a lot and would like a higher than 165hz, already capping my frames. Im on a rtx 4090 laptop with 7945hx cpu, can get 220 fps on the ultrawide/
