    Mini LED really makes whatever’s on your screen feel more alive. OLED is great, but I was more impressed by mini led panels

    Bought this for just over $700 on Amazon. Says 4 stars, but that could be because Amazon consolidates multiple models under one review page, which includes the G8 Ultrawide. Regardless, I'm excited to try it out with Stalker 2.

    I recently picked it up. Love it. Blacks are pretty deep. Deep as oled blacks? No, but the brightness blows away any oled I’ve tried, and I’ve had more than enough that I’ve tried. Image clarity is a thing to behold.

    Im planning on buy this monitor but i am afraid that since is a VA panel it has black smearing that is basically the textures flickering when you use sharpening/antialiasing or high contrast in some games, is there a way u could test that or tell me your experience?. Again, it only appears when you apply some sharpening like from the nvidia or amd drivers

    Getting a Samsung OLED G8 this monday as upgrade to my Neo G8. Will be interesting to see how it compares. Still think the Neo G8 is amazing but I've noticed my 4090 struggling in newer titles that use Unreal Engine 5 with having really bad stutter and 1% lows. VA panel technology can't handle this very well. OLED is a lot more consistent. So I expect a huge benefit in motion clarity. I will keep my Neo G8 for my racing cockpit setup however. It's replacing my old regular G7 which has served me well. I got a huge discount on the OLED G8 through benefits at work program at my new job. I used to pay full price haha.

    Hey Viktor, I bought the og g7 last year after watching your videos about it and I still love it but I wanted to try 4k and I got my eye on neo g8 but I don't know if it's worth upgrading from og g7 to neo g8 ? is it really that better and crispier?
    Also I've seen others suggesting that buying oled is better but unfortunately in my country (Iran) there is no burn in warranty for oleds and many models are unavailable here , and oleds are way more expensive .
    So do you think is it worth upgrading from og g7 to neo g8 or I should wait for better oleds without burn in in the near future to become available in my country?

And now I just said F it.. I won't buy anything.. Maybe you can get me on the right track again ?

    I just got the Neo Oled G8 (G80sd) and there are definitely some features that i miss from my old mini-led monitor (QLED G8). One of them being the brightness as it made the colors really stand out in hdr. I also never experienced scan lines and blooming is rarely noticeable in text and in some game menus. Suffice to say i might just end up keeping my Neo G8 as a second monitor so i highly recommend it.

    G8 mini LED 240hz display is the best 4k LCD display because it has just 2.8ms average response time which is insane even 540hz 1080p TN zowie monitor has like 2.5ms average response time. So in theory Samsung VA can get less than 1.5Ms response time at 540hz. So imagine a 1440p or 4K 500hz dyac 2 monitor based on NEO G8 VA panel it'll be the best monitor for competitive gaming.
