Picked up one of these because the MSI wasn't available. I haven't been disappointed. I was worried because my laptop requires a 65W charger, but it seems the 18W PD seems to charge the laptop well enough. Sure, it's slow... but if I am working it's plugged in so I never have an issue. Being able to use the KVM is a game changer!!!
@@xPhantomxify It's not that I want the monitor to charge the laptop, it's the benefit of using ONE cable to do **everything**! One small USB-C cable charges, passes video, audio, keyboard, and mouse. And with the press of a single button, I switch over to my gaming PC and everything else just follows. Without these features, I'd need to run a DP or HDMI (that'd likely carry audio), a separate power cable, then I would either need a different solution for KVM or use a 2nd mouse and keyboard (probably internal laptop KBM). You can see how the single cable is much more elegant.

Are you going to review the significantly cheaper version - FO27Q2 as well ? It seems to be identical, except refresh rate at 240hz and maybe some specific non-panel related extras.
I'm debating between the Alienware AW2725DF and the Aorus FO27Q3. I work extensively with video content; the Alienware has more accurate factory calibration, but the Aorus offers better connectivity with HDMI 2.1 and USB-C with DisplayPort. I'm thinking the best approach might be to go with the FO27Q3 and use a calibrator like the Calibrite Display Pro HL to fine-tune it. What do you think?
Great review guys, but I have a question, What kinda dimming do we see on these Oled Monitors is it DC like Dimming or PWM Dimming? and if it's PWM dimming what is the rate? Thanks!
@@thepadster123 With the G6, due to the anti-glare coating, the blacks look greyish : that's the main reason why I returned it). With the FO27Q3 and the glossy coating, the blacks look black.

@@M3dia- No real cons. The only thing I don't like is that gigabyte is doing absolutely no effort to release firmware updates. Msi added a DSC off toggle, Aorus didn't do such thing. With the q2 you'll be fine as it allows DSR (unlike the q3)
I recently just got the AOC Q27G3XMN and while it is a solid monitor for the price, I think I ruined myself after going to best buy and looking at the OLED offerings. The AOC also features some weird issues like scanlines on some blue objects as well as weird flickering in some gaming scenes. I'm debating returning and waiting for OLEDs to advance a little more to where they can be strong options for both gaming and work/productivity. Until then though, should I keep the AOC, or return it and possibly get something in the same price range? Maybe the LG 27GR83Q-B if it goes back on sale for $350?
I can't decide what to buy, debating between the two models FO27Q3 and XG27AQDMG. The main goal is a gaming experience in single games at maximum graphics in both SDR and HDR. Assuming both screens cost the same money, which one is better?
QD oled vs WOled, if you prefer gaming in dim/dark conditions def go with the gigabyte, as it will also have superior sdr and hdr and has hdmi 2.1 so you can run without dsc
@@AlexCON28etc sorry I’m wrong on that, it would only be 240hz max to run without using dsc, not the full 360hz, but for my games I don’t get above 240hz anyways, so it may vary for you
i see this one always in stock, in US, bestbuy, microcenter, 900$ plus 200$ store gift card, i think people dont grab them because sams do not provide with the warranty for burn in
here in malaysia, the Gigabyte AORUS FO27Q3 cost around 3.2k MYR ( 73X usd + ). Almost same price another option i can buy is MSI MAG 271QPX QD-OLED E2 (240HZ variant instead of 360hz). Thers also AOC AGON AG276QZD which cost around 700 usd. The ASUS GLOSSY WOLED meanwhile is cost almost 1K dollar. I mostly play with lights on so maybe glossy does not fit my usage. Not really hardcore gamer or what but i truly want experience OLED monitor. Which one should i choose ?
I wonder if the burn in warranty coverage still counts if you're careless and e.g. disable all the OLED Care functions? I of course dont want to, just curious if it still would be covered by warranty
I have just recived my AW2725DF and personally i absolutly do not care about it beeing gloss or having a purple hue when hit by light. Behind me there is a window and yes the reflection is clearly visible on a dark background but as soon as i play i dont notice it anymore. Same for the purple hue yes its there but its still a far deeper black than my 2 tn panels next to it :D
Dud you have any scratches due to the packaging? Some of these monitors seem to have then due to Dell bubblewrap, but there are cases of an extra plastic layer in between recently. How was yours packaged?
Have you reached out to rtings to inquire why their testing has so much less lag at 60hz for the dell relative to the Msi models for this same panel? Tftcentral seems to have different results (more in line with yours) as well Thanks
check rtings reviews, msi, alienware, gigabyte, (1440p 360hz qd-oled) i would say they almost the same, gigabyte just tiny better, according to their reviews, but i dont think it will be visible
Really wish there were more monitors with HDMI VRR support, or at least Capture Cards for DisplayPort. Not being able to use Adaptive Sync because the monitor only supports AMD FreeSync over HDMI is not great.
Im actually just looking for a oled i checked booth monitores the "FO27Q3" is actually 60€~ cheaper in germany then the "AW2725DF" and the "271QPX" is 30eur cheaper then the gigabyte model .. sooo wich one should i get O.o
Eventually just like IPS prices, once Oled monitors start the MSRP at 450-550$ is when I'm gonna start being interested in switching. On top of refinement of the technology to cause less burn in, wouldn't care if it takes another 10 years to get to that price.
Hello i need help :/ I'm between choosing the Gigabyte FO27Q3 or Asus XG27AQDMG What would be the best choice for Almost Gaming / Multimedia and less Office / Browsing. There are LED ceiling panels in the room itself and no direct sunlight. Which type of Oled Technology would you choose?

I really want to buy a 27 or 32" Flat QD-OLED for gaming on my RTX 3080, currently just have a 165hz 2k LCD. It would be for 70% gaming and 30% web browsing and media. I game predominantly in the evening, but some daytime activity too. I have about $1,400 AUD. Any advice? This monitor seems pretty great and meets the price.
Got this monitor after sending back an Asus Pg27aqdm. The colours in HDR were completely broken, overblown reds to the point everything looked cartoonish. On top of that the matte finish was gross and literally took the shine off the oled image, just looked like the screen had oil residue smeared across it. Am much happier with Gigabyte, HDR colour is much better, oranges don't turn purple and the addition of a KVM is a big convenience. The QD colours pop very well too. Overall much more impressed by the semi glossy QD screens than the matte woled Asus. Feels much closer to looking at my LG CX.
The gloss of the xg27 should be good but having owned the Pg27aqdm and dealing with their firmware updates breaking colour saturation (and not in a subtle oh that's slightly off way), I just don't know if I'd trust Asus again
HDR 400 is not quite HDR, tbh. You need at least 600 nits of brightness for the display to be HDR capable, and even then IPS monitors are never gonna be truly HDR capable unless they're miniLED.
Cooler Master GP27Q is still one of the best monitors money can buy, i steal one for 300e, no oled burn in, no low brightness, no ABL. Just good HDR and nice picture.
Does this have the same joystick and kvm as the m34wq as that is junk. The joystick is broken and only goes to black equalizer. The kvm does not work. I have to unplug laptop to see desktop and the usb-b cable lid not recognized by gigabyte Sidekick OSD software and just closes app. Mine failed outside of the 14 days of ownership and store said gigabyte would have to repair.

If the price ratio between Australia and the US is 0.67 the price is equal. That is the current exchange rate. To put this in another way, the average salary in Australia is $98,000 whereas in the US is $60,000.
I have captured various screen shots and have made them my screen background that swap every minute. No icons and hide the taskbar, thankfully have a elgato stream deck that has the shortcuts that I want on them so chance of burn in would be very very low. One question, running a game at highest setting how would you possibly get 360 fps or close? Have the same problem with 240htz so why get anything above 165?
This would be the best pick if it didn’t have the raised blacks issue. The XG27aqdm would win if VRR flicker wasn’t so bad and the agpd is just too expensive if 240hz would be enough
Is OLED good for gamers that play a lot of hours ? I don't play everyday, maybe twice a week but when i play i can play up to 6 hours.. Should i stick to IPS or OLED is safe ? As i heard if you play many hours a day u get a bigger risk of burn in. Thank you and great review as always.
Interesting but I'm really curious about the original panel that there is in all QD-OLED 360Hz so far. It would be really awesome if you could test and review the Samsung Odyssey G6 LS27DG600SUXEN on that famous panel 360Hz QD-OLED but this time in matte not gloss finish. Sadly only in the silver color version for now, but how often really ppl look on the back of the monitor. I'm gonna hold my decision to get any of that QD-OLED until we see what you think on that odyssey G6. Especially taking on crazy prices in many parts of Europe where eg you say it should cost 800 dollars and for our market they cost 1000 dollars and that is so sad, cause it is not only monitors with bigger prices in Europe but GPU CPU basically all tech is more expensive. Greetings
#MonitorsUnboxed -- Can you please speak to us about the ASUS 4K 240Hz OLED PG32UCDM firmware update? -- Supposedly this increase in brightness is supposed to be massive? --
I've been clicking through the store links on more monitors because I'm in the market, but I have yet to see one with a good review that doesn't show up on Amazon as "unavailable". I don't know if people are killing the stock from good reviews, or if it's just not available in my country (USA) or maybe just not on Amazon or what. Then the Aussies in the comments all say they're grumpy because it's only available in the US. No, it is not. I don't know what is happening, but it's getting pretty old, especially the more serious you are about buying something.
@monitorsunboxed Please review DELL Ultrasharp 2724D, it has 2000:1 contrast ratio on IPS display, studio monitor but 120HZ, if the response time acceptable, would be a solid choice for single player gamers. Edit: 350 dollars in my region.
TH-cam commenters try to understand the concept of value challenge. $800 for a QD-oled with these specs is objectively a great price regardless of whether it fits within your personal budget or not.

The gloss of the xg27 should be good but having owned the Pg27aqdm and dealing with their firmware updates breaking colour saturation (and not in a subtle oh that's slightly off way), I just don't know if I'd trust Asus again
Asus
the gigabyte.. it has 120hz MORE than the asus, plus asus is shit with there QC and warranty
Samsung ugly neon panel, absolute no go stand, factory calibration is a joke and Vrr ficker From hell. No thanks@XxAtomic646xX
@razor2049 youre clueless kid lmfao. Nothing you said is true. Also the fo27q3 is literally RTINGS best 1440p monitor pick 💀 cope. Asus is shit
Can you please make video on HDR 10 vs HDR 400. I am unable to find a good video on the matter
HDR 400 is not quite HDR, tbh. You need at least 600 nits of brightness for the display to be HDR capable, and even then IPS monitors are never gonna be truly HDR capable unless they're miniLED.
@@mihirojha4475 _many thanks_
Cooler Master GP27Q is still one of the best monitors money can buy, i steal one for 300e, no oled burn in, no low brightness, no ABL. Just good HDR and nice picture.
I've read on reddit that some users are having several issues with this one
@@kawa11579 Yes it has a lot of problems, but when thing works, its beatifull
Does this have the same joystick and kvm as the m34wq as that is junk. The joystick is broken and only goes to black equalizer. The kvm does not work. I have to unplug laptop to see desktop and the usb-b cable lid not recognized by gigabyte Sidekick OSD software and just closes app.
Mine failed outside of the 14 days of ownership and store said gigabyte would have to repair.
A good candidate for Lossless Scaling Frame Generation :)
Could you help me know the top 3 best 32 inch curved monitors for work productivity $500 or less. I’m not a gamer. I’ve researched for hours and just don’t know what to get. Thank you for your channel!
What do you think about the asrock pg27qft2a
If the price ratio between Australia and the US is 0.67 the price is equal. That is the current exchange rate. To put this in another way, the average salary in Australia is $98,000 whereas in the US is $60,000.
Do you plan to review Gigabyte GS32Q monitor?
Guys I can't choose between this and the msimag 271qrx. which is actually better?
This is better . Better input lag, better brightness , better software..
Have you done a video on the samsung odyssey g6 360hz yet? I own it so I'd like to see you video on it
I have captured various screen shots and have made them my screen background that swap every minute. No icons and hide the taskbar, thankfully have a elgato stream deck that has the shortcuts that I want on them so chance of burn in would be very very low. One question, running a game at highest setting how would you possibly get 360 fps or close? Have the same problem with 240htz so why get anything above 165?
You won't on highest settings. That is why you have to play on the lowest settings to get 360 FPS.
@@xPhantomxify so you buy a monitor that gives great visuals but you play on lowest setting?
What about the Samsung oled g6 27". When will that review be up
This monitor or the msi 271qpx
This would be the best pick if it didn’t have the raised blacks issue. The XG27aqdm would win if VRR flicker wasn’t so bad and the agpd is just too expensive if 240hz would be enough
Is there a good 27" 1440p monitor for Gaming & Productivity?
Miniled from KTC or AOC
Is OLED good for gamers that play a lot of hours ? I don't play everyday, maybe twice a week but when i play i can play up to 6 hours.. Should i stick to IPS or OLED is safe ? As i heard if you play many hours a day u get a bigger risk of burn in. Thank you and great review as always.
As long as you don’t leave the same image on all day you’re good.
Lot of OLED releases this year, now let's compete these prices lower ;-)
See redmagic upcoming oled
Does AAA gaming needs to be done in srgb mode ??
Interesting but I'm really curious about the original panel that there is in all QD-OLED 360Hz so far. It would be really awesome if you could test and review the Samsung Odyssey G6 LS27DG600SUXEN on that famous panel 360Hz QD-OLED but this time in matte not gloss finish.
Sadly only in the silver color version for now, but how often really ppl look on the back of the monitor.
I'm gonna hold my decision to get any of that QD-OLED until we see what you think on that odyssey G6. Especially taking on crazy prices in many parts of Europe where eg you say it should cost 800 dollars and for our market they cost 1000 dollars and that is so sad, cause it is not only monitors with bigger prices in Europe but GPU CPU basically all tech is more expensive.
Greetings
dsc cannot be deactivated so if you ALT+Tab it takes 5+seconds every time to see the desktop
What about the FO27Q2 its 650 euros for me but dont know the differences between the q3 and q2 except for that q3 is 360hz
they are the same except for being 240hz and no rpg lighting on the back.
I'm so tired that HDR 1000 is locked to below 400 nits at full white screen brightness. It's the one thing I hate about my OLED.
I would like to see a 4k 27 OLED.
Just make a 5120x2160 480 hz 21:9 OLED and I won't need any other monitor ever.
This is why they wont do it
#MonitorsUnboxed -- Can you please speak to us about the ASUS 4K 240Hz OLED PG32UCDM firmware update? -- Supposedly this increase in brightness is supposed to be massive? --
Could you review the ASUS TUF Gaming VG27AQM1A ? Its seems to be the best 240hz 1440p monitor
game menu?
samsung g6 oled 360hz which1?
I've been clicking through the store links on more monitors because I'm in the market, but I have yet to see one with a good review that doesn't show up on Amazon as "unavailable". I don't know if people are killing the stock from good reviews, or if it's just not available in my country (USA) or maybe just not on Amazon or what. Then the Aussies in the comments all say they're grumpy because it's only available in the US. No, it is not. I don't know what is happening, but it's getting pretty old, especially the more serious you are about buying something.
If this is $500 more then the Alienware is it worth it or just get the dell
@monitorsunboxed Please review DELL Ultrasharp 2724D, it has 2000:1 contrast ratio on IPS display, studio monitor but 120HZ, if the response time acceptable, would be a solid choice for single player gamers.
Edit: 350 dollars in my region.
- "great price"
- 800USD (more in EU)
- ok then im out
Blame your world leaders.
TH-cam commenters try to understand the concept of value challenge. $800 for a QD-oled with these specs is objectively a great price regardless of whether it fits within your personal budget or not.
@@Personalinfo404
Like if your leaders care about you !!
Currently 840€ in Germany is not too bad.
"Great price"
Sweden - Hold my beer!
Price: 1120$
I think you guys should Directly Compare ASUS PG32 UCX vs Asus 4K Qd OLED
That would be a great video, if being available in HDR.
Does someone has best color settings for this monitor?
Pls review KTC H27T22S monitor
Could you cover the Samsung Odyssey G8 G80SD?
Samsung GN95C, TCL 34R83Q, and TCL 27R83U review please
I am afraid Tim only reviews OLEDs that are sent his way.
No VRR flickering test/results?
RTINGS has them for this monitor
