The mini-led is brighter, but look how washed out it. It looks like ass. Brighter does not equal better. I like having the ability to see the game's textures instead of seeing all that bloom. I could only imagine settings the PG32 to 1700 would only make it look even more washed out. Can't even see the details in the clouds.

A note for people who are confused by the title and description disagreeing about left and right. Throughout the video: Samsung (Left) vs LG (right) At 15:57 during the text rendering closeup they've swapped places: LG (Left) vs Samsung (right)

You sold me on this display you absolute chav :P OLED in the living room, the AW3225QF on my desk, I knew something was not right with HDR, I just couldnt see honestly why people gave a shit about HDR. Until firing up the PG32UQX, it's beyond gorgeous. Now i'm torn at which to keep, may keep both.

i have a PG32UQX, LG C2 42", 55" S95D, 85" QN900C, a Viewsonic 15.6 4k OLED portable monitor, and the PG32UQX destroys the OLEDs when it comes to HDR contents even the S95D. When the sun rises, it blinds my eyes, when playing God of War, it is breathtaking!! I can see all of details of the armors in God of War, the metals parts of the armors and axe look very shinny and bright while all they look dull on the OLEDs. One of the games where the OLEDs shine is Lies of P where the environments in the games are generally on the darker side. Even when viewing SDR, the Asus looks better than the OLEDs since it can go much brighter. Some people say a good monitor/tv is not about brightness, but it is when it comes to HDR. When the specular highlights in a video/movie is meant to be seen at 1000nit, your monitor needs to reach 1000nit for you to see them. Same goes with 1550 nit. 2000 nit...etc. OLED displays provide infinite contrast, but it doesn't mean it can provide the HDR impact such as a sun is rising up along the horizon. HDR impact makes you feel like you are there in the scene. On the other hand, OLED displays do much better than mini led when viewing a scene where we see a lot of buildings in the city at night from a drone view, which mini led tv/monitor struggle to display a clear image which the micro contrast on an OLED really shines. I understand the strengths and weaknesses of both technology and that's why I decided to own both. There is no need to argue which is better, get what works for you.

Service menu - Remote:info > Factory how did you get factory from info?

Are you able to adjust peak brighness on SVC menu?

I dont know if it's the setting on the Samsung but the LG looks way better, sharper and clearer! Overall better

for me there is no doubt! LG black levels are black! That is the reason to buy OLED to get perfect blacks. So LG is better IMHO...

2000e mini-led vs 1200e oled. my wallet is telling me not to be stupid because oled is not the thing, plus far cheaper than anticipated.

Wao, great work. like

Shame the price of these mini LEDs has shot up to atmospheric levels. I can ejther buy 3 32" 4K oleds for $1300 each or 1 Asus mini LED for $4000...

For the price of the G8, you’re better off to pay extra for the Asus. No point in spending that much just to go half way in terms of performance and quality.

At 1:08 if you look towards the top right where the sky is you can see how washed out the MiniLED is. You can even see what's in the sky it's so white and too bright. OLED you can actually see everything in the distance

I own the UQX and I absolutely love it. QD-Oled has its perks but so does a Mini-LED. Just get what is best for you.

I cannot relate to this video at all. This person clearly has a strong like for high APL and peak brightness and isn't bothered by blooming. The assertion that miniLED's flaws don't appear often is wild. Blooming is obvious in nearly all environments when not gaming. It's especially obvious when browsing the web or moving the mouse cursor. I have owned several OLEDs and miniLEDs: *Alienware QD OLED monitor *Sony OLED TV *Asus MiniLED laptop I have also tried the Asus MiniLED he is using along with the Samsung Neo G8. They all have the same problem; *Obvious blooming -in windows, with subtitles, etc. *Terrible viewing angles *Limited micro contrast- 1000 dimming zones is just not enough *More input lag The list goes on. As long as you can mitigate the risk of burn-in, OLED's weakness is a lack of brightness above 20% window sizes. That doesn't happen often outside of high APL scenes in games and films.

one question? who is better the last LG OLED 32 240 hz or Samsung OLED G8 32 for gaming and works with photoshop thanx !!

OLED is definitely not a perfect technology. But I prefer gaming and watching content in a very dark room. So for me OLED is king because of its deep blacks.

now you should see odyssey neo g9 57 vs these oleds since it can reach 240hz its nice and very bright for peak hdr brightness

You should play AAA E-sports titles, they easily hit 240fps and more even at 4K. Then you'll see a ton of smearing and ghosting on the Mini-LED. This is the main reason I choose OLED.

You said you tried the Innocn 32m2v and it didn’t compare to the Asus, could you elaborate more on how the Asus was better? I have the 27m2v which is significantly brighter than the 32m2v and has a lower response time, so maybe the 27m2v would better compare to the Asus in your video?

Oled

Is this console 120hz?? G80SD barely flickers at 120hz. You should repeat this test at 240hz with Gsync ON, and you will see how atrocious the Samsung is. Almost unusable….

I never understood the fetish for more brightness? I mean I am using like 75 brightness now and if more I would feel like I am burning my retinas. OLED for me has never been too dimm. But with that said, HDR in Windows overall doesn't feel good yet for a set-and-forget usage. It's still buggy and sometimes not switch automatic or working at all for some games. I am gonna stick with my LG 32GQ950 that I know isn't even a Mini-LED but still got a very good picture imo. It's Nano IPS so very fast still and comes with a ATQ Polarizer that helps removing any IPS Glow (mine got none!) that you are used to. Still no deep OLED Blacks but I think I can wait bit more since burn-in is still also a factor if you're gonna use the monitor for anything else then just gaming and movies. I want Micro-LED now!

The price is stupid for that miniled. Just plain stupid.

the asus is nearly double the price, how is this even a comparison?

too me the colours on the LG look more "correct".

1 Month later, there is finally a new king on the block in EU, and a true competitor to the Asus PG32UQX. TCL just released their new line of miniLED monitors, the 27R83U and the 34R83Q. Both are HDR 1400 VESA Certified, and can get over 2000 nits bright in 50%-75% windows, and even up to 2000 nits peak in 100% windows! They do go down to 1200 nits after 30 minutes of full white HDR images, while also having great pixel response time and they cost 800 euro. Has the PG32UQX finally been dethroned?

I have a question, because something is strange. Samsung seems to have also dimmer colors, I think something is wrong with your calibration. That can;t be right for the sole reason thhat regarding colors volume and color vibrance, nothing beats SAMSUNG's 3rd GEN QD OLED's and especially SAMSUNG ONE's monitor which is the most over saturated.

LG more depth, more sharpness. AMAZING. I have the SAMSUNG G80 SD in front of me, and don't know what to do.

I personally leave VRR off on my Alienware 34DW because of the flickering, none the less the monitor is still AMAZING, only upgrade from this would be ROG's 240hz 34 or 39" WOLED

I mean yeah, the only step up from the UQX are those reference grading monitors that go for 30k+ If only the response time was decent, it would be the perfect monitor…

wow the Asus absolutely destroyed the g8. If you ever have the opportunity, can you give us a side by side comparison of the Innocn m2v vs the pg32uqx?

Asus PG32UQX cost $3200 vs Neo G8 is $980. CAD...... lol

Just realised you didn't use much game footage on this one compared to the Samsung QD-OLED comparison. Could you include more game footage like that video would be great! Like Dead Space, the Jedi one, Cyber Punk, etc...to show how much shadow detail and highlights gets crushed on the Neo G8.

One thing nobody seems to comment on is Samsung's inability to display orange correctly, its comes off as a pinkish red like at 6:17. I have both a QLED and an LG OLED and the issue is clear as day when comparing those too.

*UFO TEST !!!!*

Hi, thanks for this comparison, which one would you recommand overall ?

Your right channel is out in this recording.

Left one has less brightness. Anything else?

I should have bought the PG32UQX when it priced at 2500. Mini led is the way to go for HDR.

can you recommend your top 4k monitor to me please? and did u test Samsung oled g9? I test Samsung g8 oled: it was not very bright ( darkish) but colour and black looks good, return it because text clarity was not so great and limited game mode 175hz.

Thank you for going in depth on the PG32UQX properly. The Hardware Unboxed review was so disappointing. They got hung up on the hdmi port not being 2.0, and the price of course then barely ever mentioned it again. You never see it in their comparison charts for brightness or what not. Yeah, there's still nothing else like it on the market. I'll be using mine till it dies. NV's new auto-hdr AI filter makes even SDR games look incredible, so it's gotten even more legs to it since buying it.

Only if they weren’t matte

I received the monitor a few days ago and I'm satisfied for the most part, but there is a weird issue. It has coil whine. Nothing new for Samsung, yeah. But what's weird about it is that the coil whine vanishes when I open the OSD or when I use the smart features. It's still there if I display a completely black screen, so it's not related to what's being displayed on the monitor, although the OSD makes it stop for some reason. HDMI or DP, lower brightness, VRR on or off, 240hz or 120hz, all of that makes no difference whatsoever. The coil whine seems to come from the lower middle part of the screen.

Is there any chance of getting the ASUS PA32UCXR (an upgraded UQX for dimming zones!) in for a comparison between the PG32UQX and also maybe a brighter ASUS OLED than the Samsung G8 OLED? I would really like to know how blacks and brightness compare! Great videos btw keep them coming, you have great potential! Maybe you could get one from ASUS in for review to take a look at? It looks incredible for specs, double the dimming zones 2304, dolby vision maybe not quite as bright and 60Hz panel only! For HDR movies/series and games though it should improve the picture quality a decent amount maybe, even less blooming with more detail to the picture?

I agree with you that Mini-LED has a place in the market absolutely, but what is mini-LED better at? As far as I can tell the main difference is brightness and text clarity. I don’t know if those two factors alone are enough

Can’t really see the difference because the video isn’t in HDR 🤦🏾‍♂️ missed opportunity, as it stands there isn’t a huge difference that can be concluded from this SDR vid

Thats the Evidence thats VA is totaly Scrap! This Brown Cast of the Samsung VA Mini LED is very disgusting and the Colors are total excessive. By the Scene with the Forest 0:24 on the VA can see nothing treetops anymore. And by Scenery with the Mountain in the Back 3:24 on the VA can nothing seen of the City in front of the Mountain and the white Clouds are green, disgusting.

Its kind of a shame how the manufacturers limit the monitors when QD oled TVs can get alot brighter. The 10 percent window performance is very important for hdr gaming
