Just ordered this monitor cant wait to see the oled quality

is it worth dropping down to 144hz refresh rate to get 10 bit color instead of the 8 bit at 175hz?

Dear Author! dear friends! Hi. I have this monitor. Please pay attention to important things that for some reason no one is talking about (the first one is VERY important): 1. If you look at the screen of this monitor directly, as usual, the colors are not very strong, but noticeably dimmer than if viewed from angles. This is very important and annoying, because when you approach the monitor, the colors are brighter and when you sit down at it, they get darker. This is probably a flaw in the matrix that can hardly be fixed programmatically. On the first point: I consider this unacceptable for a monitor in this price category. He's not worth his money. 2. Night vision in the AI position - in games with a top view (Dota 2 for example) - especially if you move the camera away with the mouse wheel on the replay - when you move the screen, light vertical stripes moving in the direction of the screen movement are clearly visible. 3. Indeed, the HDR 1000 greatly reduces the overall brightness to an unacceptable level. Good luck to everyone

This or the mpg module?

Hello again ^^ sorry for the specificity of this question but for a dual monitor setup (one gaming, one having shows/sports/streams/KZfaq or displaying chats and OBS, what would you recommend?

Will these settings apply to Mag 271 versions? I assume same panel inside

My monitor came with a Calibration Factory Report Sheet. Does it mean I don't need to calibrate it?

I never comment on KZfaq videos, but here I am forced to admit that these settings made my use of C2 so much better for standard PC mode and HDR gaming mode as explined in this video. Superb. Now I am getting full benefit of my C2!

Thanks for the great review. I picked one of these up mainly due to the burn in warranty compared to Samsung (and it was £150 cheaper). Have you had any feedback from MSI regarding a firmware update? The panel refresh doesn’t seem to be working properly and the screen annoyingly just pops up after four hours and needs to be set manually. I’ve looked round the internet and it seems many are having the same issue but MSI are being very quiet on it. Thought I’d ask yourself as you seem to be in touch with MSI directly.

So, for the Oled Care dimming levels, Which does it mean a high number is better or a lower Number?

Hey. Is there any chance you're going to review the new g60sd Samsung? Struggling to find reliable info about it and in my country (UK) there's some great offers that expire in just a few days

Tyson Fury knows tech?

So if I'm correct, Gamer 1 for HDR content, and SRGB for SDR content? Thanks for the great vid.

5120x2160p is nice, only you need a beast of a graphic card to pump decent FPS out on that resolution (RTX 5000 series?). I'm still in doubt what to do. 34-inch with 3440x1140 is also ok i guess, but as i am used to 4K less sharp (but decent FPS FPS). 3440x1140 on 39-inch has a PPI that's to low, so not interesting for me.

I found it to be a bit too much on the warm side when editing photos, do you have any other recommendations, things to be aware of for this particular use? Great video btw :)

This monitor does have a confirmed hidden menu. Turn off your monitor. Once off. Push the joystick to the left 3 times and one time to the right, Then .Push in the center to turn the monitor on service menu. Once The main menu comes out. Go to settings ..and the hidden menu will pop up on the left side of your screen. Once there. You need to turn on HCDP on in order to enjoy netflix in full 4k with hdr. Otherwise it wont work. We need all the help we can get together.

does it really have USB 2.0 in 2024? i hope its just a typo or a random copy-paste mistake from a 15 years old screen

Can someone tell me if i can do the update with the hdmi cable that came with the monitor ? ty

Any updates on this? Is the 5k2k LG OLED 45" still on schedule?

Great little vid!

Is it necesarry to use display port for update? Or enoght with HDMI 2.0 ?

Hi, i have a problem with this monitor, when i turn on pc monitor not turning on, it just showing: no signal on displayport. Is ther any solution ???

It looks like the 31.5in 4k WOLED panel with the new sub pixel layout (LG 32GS95UE) was released earlier than expected. Do you think the 45in 5K2K WOLED with the new sub pixel layout that’s set for production in December could be due a little sooner as well?

Thanks very much Simon - just got the MSI 32URX and followed your instructions to update the firmware.

Thanks for this and other reviews on this year's new oled. I am currently waiting for the MSI MPG 341CQPX review, will you be able to review it only when it goes on sale (probably in August) or can you possibly do it earlier? Because I noticed that some small MSI partners have already gotten it and have done their reviews on youtube I'm really looking forward to a review from you including. Tired of waiting for this model because 240 hz is really better than 175 hz. And I'm looking at MSI 271QRX periodically because I'm tired of sitting on my slow VA from xiaomi. Though I realize I'm too used to the 21:9 format and am unlikely to buy a standard 16:9. Too bad only MSI long enough to release this model on 240 hz, 21:9 format :(

great video. ty . i assume everyone is using a dp cable with their monitor , i am using the hmi cable that came with the monitor and am wondering if i really need dp to update as it is said. ?

I did the firmware update still had bad black flickering while in HDR I returned and kept the gigabyte AORUS FO32U2P no issues at all

Anything for ps5

Any chance of getting a settings guide for this monitor? Just got one and it's spectacular!

This is a good video. Thank you for doing this my guy!

Anyone manage to purchase one of these recently? I swear they haven’t been available for a few months.

So I play Pubg exclusively with a 4090 Would this be the best glossy Oled to buy (Even though I can’t find one to buy😅)

I bought it but keep getting black screens for a couple of seconds 😢

such a talent to give 0 information, unbelievable. just leave your monitor at standard settings.

I have a question friend, is the Asus rog swift pg27aqn compatible with the ps 5?

I’m new to PCs. This video is fantastic. Thank you very much.

Has there been any news about the 2025 OLED panels from both Samsung and LG? apart from the videos uploaded a few months ago.

Thanks for your great Review. Du you prefer the MSI or the Samsung with 240Hz? I am wavering between the two models Thanks😊

Any others got problems aswell if you enable VRR/G-SYNC that some games like RDR2 start within a black screen when launching the game? I got the MPG 321urx and am on current firmware. This issue is pretty annoying, since the only solution for me is to turn off VRR completly. Setting up a ruleset in nvidia control panel to not enable GSYNC for games with this problem, does not work. You have to turn it off in the OSD which is annoying.

how to enable g-sync?

Gigabyte slacking

dont know why but mine doesn't go to 240 hz. i've tried _everything_.

Its laughable the monitor cant run 240hz 8 or 10 bit in 1440p with DP.

Please make a FO27Q3 settings video!

Does the monitor save the settings between sdr and hdr settings in the osd? Every time I turn HDR off or on in windows the settings stay the same.

Hey sir I have a problem when playing games I can't play full screen... The games always start with 16:9 not 21:9... Do you have any solution??

I wish these new oleds had 240hz refresh.

Overall the monitor has been great, even with the latest 010 firmware. I particularly liked how it goes back to standby or on after the panel protect kicks in. However, a few issues I've noticed, the VRR flicker is still there on certain games. Especially Jedi Survivor in the loading and menus. Most of the game is fine but when you pause the game it'll flicker a bit, maybe it was reduced but its still there. If you turn off G-Sync it goes away completely but you'll be at that 90-100fps at 240Hz. Another thing that hasn't been resolved is the panel protect where even if you leave the monitor on in standby the entire night/day it will still kick in once it hits its internal 16 hour timer. I know when I'm getting ready for work at around 6AM, even if I use the monitor for say 10-15 minutes then leave it on standby the entire day say 8-9 hours. Come back home and while you're doing something the menu for 16 hours pops up saying its mandatory and/or I use it for a few hours after work then I come back with a full 8 minute or so pixel cleaning. I don't know how it is for the other panels but LG doesn't have this issue so they're doing something right there. So yes I have caught the popup and/or forced panel protect in the most inconvenient times and its funny my second monitor would still be on while this one is flashing on stand by. Overall if they can fix these issues it'll be one more step closer to a better monitor.
