I also received the m32u and I am satisfied with it too. Even with the hdr deactivated the colors are beautiful, fast response time in game, no dead pixel. Personally I recommend this monitor, the value for money is incredible
Absolutely agree. A beautiful monitor and doesn’t break the bank (too much). A few people have mentioned trying it with HDR off. I will have to give that a shot. Thanks for watching and your support my friend!
Your right, it’s not the best HDR but it’s not as bad as people make it out to be either. If you have played Ghost of Tsushima, you know how contrast-y that game is from its lights to darks. The m32u handles it pretty well.
@@iFlakkoo I bought it and it's amazing! This is my first gaming monitor, so I ain't a pro. But my gaming experience improved dramatically, specially on games like call of duty. The difference between playing on a 60hz TV, to a 120hz 4k monitor, it's like night and day! The colors and the graphics look really nice too! One of my favorite purchases so far!
This is a dope video man. You just reinsured me I made a good purchase during Amazon’s Black Friday. I have a 2019 Mac as well. I think going to try your set up 👍🏾
Glad you enjoyed and I don’t think you will regret your purchase. I connected my Gigabyte to my iMac via the official Apple usb-c/lightning cable. I know it’s a hefty price for a silly little cable but you will get the best results with it.
if i had to play on a monitor it would be this one for sure! I would also hook up my 14 inch mbp. but like you I play on my sony 55 inch A80J. great video !
Absolutely agree! I love my Sony A80J but the Gigabyte is a great gaming monitor and it’s always good to have options! Glad you enjoyed the video and thank you for your support!
Hey! Appreciate your work :) Is it the same wallpaper that you reversed on your iMac and M32U ? Because if yes, that means there is a big difference in the yellow color and i wanna know before buying. Thanks
It is, and you’re right the color spectrum on the gigabyte is not as big as the iMac. I mostly is the m32u for gaming and a secondary screen for editing/management where 100% accuracy isn’t needed. But I stick to the iMac for true editing. I have edited the RGB spectrum since this video, toning down the reds and greens which helps reduce the yellowing effect
That awesome! Congratulations and I hope you love it! I sure do! I haven’t tweaked the setting much. “Picture” I’ve chosen FPS and increase the gamma to add color and contrast. And for “Overdrive” I chose “speed” for smoother image quality. Let me know what you think when you get yours! Thanks for watching and your support!
Great review! Do you really manage to charge your M1 properly over the monitor USB-C? Because the specs only mentiune it has 15W power delivery which should not be enough to actualy charge a laptop?
Thanks my dude! Can’t speak on behave of the Hisense but this Gigabyte is great and I love it! Best advise I can give. Get both, test them out in your setup and return the one you don’t want. Temp over expense but you’ll get your money back and you won’t wonder “what if” on the other. Keep me updated on which one you go with!
Awesome video! So I use lightroom and I like to do color grading/editing videos. However, I'm also into gaming on my PC. Do you recommend this monitor? Or do you know any monitor that can do gaming with high refresh rate and has the best color accuracy when it comes to editing photos/color grading. Thanks!
This is a great monitor for gaming. 4k, 144hz and compatible with HDMI 2.1. I don’t think this would be great for photo/video editing for color accuracy. I feel like it would be difficult to find an all-in-one monitor like that. And I’m sure something like that would be $$$$. I would recommend getting this for PC/console gaming and a separate professional color accurate monitor for editing.
Absolutely! you can’t go wrong with that either. Especially now that PS5 supports 1440p. I got this monitor before the 1440p software update so I went 4k. For me, this monitor is not only for gaming but also for photo and video editing so I went with the higher resolution.
I’ll admit it’s not the best monitor. You talking about an IPS display vs LCD. I had to do quite a bit of custom adjustments to get the colors as close to the iMac as possible. So for photo and video editing, I stick with the iMac display but for gaming the gigabyte is great!
Great review and you have earned a subscription only received mine a few days ago to hook up to my xbox series x. Can you run through your settings please as going by your replies to comments you use hdr but the vid shows fps settings. If I enable hdr on xbox series x I don't have fps mode on monitor.
Very insightful review! You hit all the points I was looking for (How suitable it is for next-gen consoles, picture & colors quality, especially on games like Ghost of Tsushima, Horizon Forbidden West, and that it can be height-adjustable, the specs, confirmation that it contains HDMI 2.1...). Awesome work man, well done! And thank you for the really awesome insightful review! Do you know if it's the same as the Gigabyte M28U? Is it only a difference in size (inches) ?
Hey I just got this monitor and plan to use it for my ps5 and macbook m1 , were you able to use your macbook closed (clamshell mode) by just using the usb c connection ? If so , was it a thunder bolt 3 cable ? Thanks in advance
I think it’s worth having multiple options. I have a 4k TV as well that I use. The series x and PS5 have hdmi 2.1 which allows for 120hz, VRR, and HDR and you need a tv that supports hdmi 2.1. Your current tv is still great and you are getting good quality. But once you see how smooth 120hz looks compared to 60hz, to me it’s a worth it.
Thanks for your answer; you're right I did not considered the VRR and Smoothness, also I'm getting started on coding so I think this will be a perfect match for gaming and coding; thanks a lot man!
I have the M32UC for my PS5. Have not really tried HDR on it since people say its not ”real HDR” but some people say that HDR is the way to go.. so im pretty confused. I like How it looks on SDR with some tinkering in settings but do you recommend HDR on?
Go with what you like! I have HDR and I like the way it looks. It really just comes down to preference. Some people will be snobs and be like it’s not true HDR. That’s fine. But I like it on. If you have got your settings dialed in, enjoy it!
I'm looking for a monitor to pair with my PS5. Would you recommend the Gigabyte M28U or M32U? I want a monitor that I can enjoy gaming on for years in my room lol
Practically the same monitor. Only difference is the overall screen size. I think it comes down to what types of games you play. For fps, the small screen would be better, at 32” your eyes have to wander around to see everything. If more action/adventure/story/rpg, 32” is ideal and also great for movies/tv.
Do you reccomend using the aim stabilizer function instead of using Hdr? Its not possible to have both activated at once. I'm on xbox series x and I play fps games
after 10 months of using, what is your monitor experience now ? please make a video about that. please please please or at least answer in comments. some people saying that brightness is low now and color changing and more. are u facing same ?
Make sure your ps5 has the latest software update and check your video settings to make sure variable refresh rate, HDR, etc is turned on. It will also depend if the game supports these features as well!
The m32uc is a curved display vs a flat panel with the m32u. I think the m32uc does have a fast refresh rate 160hz vs the m32u which is at 144hz but that won’t make a difference because the ps5 is 120hz max.
I'm currently playing Horizon Forbidden West on PS5, and the image is displayed on the Gigabyte M32U monitor. Could you advise me how to best set HDR on the console and game so as not to have too warm colors? What I mean is that with HDR turned on, Aloy's face looks too pink, the same with the faces of other characters, while the sun is shining brightly in the game. Best regards and thank you if you answer. Regards.
There are quite a few games that have 120hz refresh rate but not all. So if you prefer playing in performance mode vs fidelity, this monitor is perfect. Ultimate you are also future proofing yourself with this monitor if and when a PS5 pro/ps6 is released.
@@InfinniteLife Thx, I am mostly buying a ps5 and a monitor for FFVII Rebirth and maybe trying FFXVI and I saw this one will run at 60fps, maybe FFVII Rebirth will run with those specs too? That's why I asked
That’s a hard call. The only differences is 2k to 4k and I don’t know if you would notice much of a difference on a smaller screen. It’s different if you were talk about a 60-80” tv. Best bet, order it test it out and see if it’s worth it to you. If not return it. Keep me updated with what you do!
My table is 80 cm wide and 160 cm long. It is almost empty. Do you think it's better to take 28 inches or 32 inches? Looking for games on PS5, watch movies.
Haven’t played resident evil but I have played ghost of Tsushima which is high contrast and HDR and it handles it well. It’s not OLED so not true blacks. But does well as an IPS monitor.
3:09 how far do you sit from the monitor? Do you find it easy to sit at for both gaming and productivity or do your eyes/neck hurt a bit after a while?
100% it has VRR. I haven’t seen any description about it having ALLM so I am going to say no to be on the safe side. But i would not let that one factor deter you from consider this gaming monitor! I recommend you getting it and if it doesn’t live up to your expectations, you can always return it!
It’s a great monitor and you will be all set for when you get a PS5! Good luck, they are they getting easier to find now! Keep me updated. Thanks for watching!
To be honest, I don't know. I doubt there is any spec difference between the two. Just screen size. So I would assume it is the same as the M28U, just larger.
Please help. It has only 24 gbps hdmi2.1 and ps5 has 32 gbps. Should i buy this for PS5? Will quality be reduced or anything? What will be the effects? Any help would be appreciated.
I have the monitor too one problem is i use the 8k cable and in game it always switches saying HD 2 and the monitor really gets massive hot i set up everything in nvidia gsync 144 hz did i forget something when i used it the first time it said gsync on the right corner now its not
im mostly single player guy right now rarely i play a competitive multiplayer game like cod halo and fornite as right now i only play story mode of game and i dont know if this monitor for me im mostly looking monitor produce amazing color accuracy and 4k run smootlhy and if not i setteld with 1440p and look amazing when im passing a story in game and you know looking around while passing story to impress me while doing it !
I’m the same way. Most single player, recently been playing FF16, Baldur’s Gate and finishing up Jedi Survivor. Occasional multiplayer like COD and GT7. Really smooth 4K and can do 120Hz in performances mode. Colors are good but not 100% accurate out of the box. I wouldn’t trust it for photo/video editing but for gaming the colors are good and vibrant. Remember it is an IPS display, not OLED so the blacks are not the best and the HDR is good enough. For a $500-600 4k 32in screen, it’s a great monitor. Otherwise you will be paying a lot more. Hope that helps and thanks for watching and your support! ✌🏽
@@InfinniteLife yeah i saw one oled monitor really expensive i dont know how much price drops around holidays were i may get a deal but i dont know what you told me it makes me second guess it now lol
@@InfinniteLife well as long when theres moment in game where it goes black and i can see enough i guess would be fine as long i can see enough when i go around darker area in the game also sorry to ask you alot of question but can you go more into details about colors are good but not %100 accuarte and colors being good vibrant i guess go more into details about those part !
Not necessarily. You have to test it out and see for yourself. A good friend of mine has a gigabyte monitor and it looked great so I went with it also. Statistically, the g70A is good on paper but i haven’t seen one in person.
Haven’t used the m9. The one advantage the m9 has is it’s contrast ratio which will make the colors really pop. But otherwise they are both IPS panels. The m9 is a 27” screen vs 32”. And the m9 is almost twice the price. Best rec, get both, test both out and return the one you don’t want. Let me know what you decide! ✌🏽
@@javirivera1825 well the curve helps that and i sit directly in the middle of it at a desk so no issues, and i am usually in a dim lit room which is perfect for this monitor. no wash out really but it can be adjusted, other monitors i couldn't get the washed colors out, but this one hdr was better.
@@InfinniteLife Thanks for intel. I know you have a single setup on your video, but would the IPS version be better for a dual monitor setup (due to viewing angles)? Was thinking of curved but if I have them side by side most likely wont be centered on each one.

I’m about to get it

What’s the best picture mode for gaming ?
Is it worth buying one of these for single player games? It looks like they run at 60fps, should I got for a 4k 60hz one then?

Thing it’s worth it to upgrade from a 1440p 120hz 1ms panel? I am really going back and forth deciding whether it’s worth it or not
That’s a hard call. The only differences is 2k to 4k and I don’t know if you would notice much of a difference on a smaller screen. It’s different if you were talk about a 60-80” tv. Best bet, order it test it out and see if it’s worth it to you. If not return it. Keep me updated with what you do!
how do you find the brightness of the monitor..is it bright enough in hdr..
I'll be using headphones mostly but I'm curious, is it possible to connect external speakers to the monitor?
I haven’t tried myself but there is a headphone jack on the monitor which you could connect speakers to.
and 10 bit color with contrast ratio of 1000:1 ...pretty important.
Is This monitor still a Good to go for the rest of 2023?
Can i use same mouse and keyboard for PS5 and Laptop via kvm switch?
Unfortunately not. That is the one scenario that does not work. You need to plug/connect the K&M straight to the PS5
My table is 80 cm wide and 160 cm long. It is almost empty. Do you think it's better to take 28 inches or 32 inches? Looking for games on PS5, watch movies.
It depends. For action/adventure games and movies, 32” is ideal. For fps games, 24-27” is better.
Would using hdmi 2.1 do anything for the ps4 or no since it can’t do 4K gaming
No not for the PS4 base. Like you said, it doesn’t do 4k. The PS4 Pro was HDMI 2.0. Only the PS5 is HDMI 2.1 which gives 4k, HDR, 120fps, VRR etc..
Will this monitor be good for dark games like Resident Evil?
Haven’t played resident evil but I have played ghost of Tsushima which is high contrast and HDR and it handles it well. It’s not OLED so not true blacks. But does well as an IPS monitor.
All the resident evil remakes looks fantastic on this monitor. It’s unreal

Does this monitor support VRR and ALLM on the PS5 or XBOX?
100% it has VRR. I haven’t seen any description about it having ALLM so I am going to say no to be on the safe side. But i would not let that one factor deter you from consider this gaming monitor! I recommend you getting it and if it doesn’t live up to your expectations, you can always return it!

Do you need a computer for the monitor? or just a console like a ps5
You do not need a computer. You can use it exclusively for consoles.
@@InfinniteLife thanks man you earned a subscriber
can u make sure if the HDMI-VRR works on PS5 cuz it is really hard to find the specific 4k monitor that works 4k120 with HDMI-VRR on PS5
Is there a difference between the m32u and the m28u other than screen size?
Just screen size. The spec are the same
nop the m32u is faster rtings review
Does this monitor need a manual update or does it auto update
It will auto update if you download the gigabyte utility tool from their website.
Hello does the monitor support vrr and allm on the ps5
100% has VRR. I don’t think it has ALLM.
gigabyte is a fantastic company
Just got this monitor today! Now just waiting for my Ps5 now 🙄
It’s a great monitor and you will be all set for when you get a PS5! Good luck, they are they getting easier to find now! Keep me updated. Thanks for watching!
@@InfinniteLife what are your best settings for the ps5? The options are overwhelming 😅
Did you get you PS5?
I have M28U..wanted to know how is hdr of M32U is it bright...is there any brightness, contrast improvement over M28U..
To be honest, I don't know. I doubt there is any spec difference between the two. Just screen size. So I would assume it is the same as the M28U, just larger.
@@InfinniteLife how do you find the brightness of m32u
What is deffernt to m28u? Only the size or other thing?
Spec and component wise they are the same. Only difference is the size.
nop
Please help. It has only 24 gbps hdmi2.1 and ps5 has 32 gbps.
Should i buy this for PS5? Will quality be reduced or anything? What will be the effects?
Any help would be appreciated.
I just sold my geo neo g8 I need IPS I will get this
It’s a great monitor. I love it! Thanks for watching and your support! ✌🏽
I have the monitor too one problem is i use the 8k cable and in game it always switches saying HD 2
and the monitor really gets massive hot i set up everything in nvidia gsync 144 hz did i forget something when i used it the first time it said gsync on the right corner now its not
Turn off he HDR. Looks much better
If you buy an hdmi 1.4 2.0 or 2.1 does it come with the cable or do you have to buy it?
The monitor came with 1 HDMI 2.1 cable
Do you need that mouse and keyboard?
Yeah, kinda do 😜
Currently at $549.99 in Newegg.
That’s a great price for this monitor. Worth picking up if you are in the market! Love playing modern warfare on it!
@@InfinniteLife Bro, I just subscribed. Thinking that you were up there in the 200k. Great video!!!
I wish! but no I’m a new TH-cam under 1000. But thanks to you I’m one subscriber closer! Thank you for your support. Got many more videos coming soon!
Is the monitor VRR and ALLM compatible on the PS5?
Absolutely! 4K max 144hz (PS5 caps at 120hz), allows for VRR and ALLM! Everything you needed for HDMI 2.1 gaming! ✌🏽
im mostly single player guy right now rarely i play a competitive multiplayer game like cod halo and fornite as right now i only play story mode of game and i dont know if this monitor for me im mostly looking monitor produce amazing color accuracy and 4k run smootlhy and if not i setteld with 1440p and look amazing when im passing a story in game and you know looking around while passing story to impress me while doing it !
I’m the same way. Most single player, recently been playing FF16, Baldur’s Gate and finishing up Jedi Survivor. Occasional multiplayer like COD and GT7. Really smooth 4K and can do 120Hz in performances mode. Colors are good but not 100% accurate out of the box. I wouldn’t trust it for photo/video editing but for gaming the colors are good and vibrant. Remember it is an IPS display, not OLED so the blacks are not the best and the HDR is good enough. For a $500-600 4k 32in screen, it’s a great monitor. Otherwise you will be paying a lot more. Hope that helps and thanks for watching and your support! ✌🏽
@@InfinniteLife yeah i saw one oled monitor really expensive i dont know how much price drops around holidays were i may get a deal but i dont know what you told me it makes me second guess it now lol
@GubiYoroi2 give it a try and see how you like it. If not you can alway return it and try something else. Keep me updated on what you decide!
@@InfinniteLife well most likely im going to order it online i dont know if is going to be here in my country so i may not return it back !
@@InfinniteLife well as long when theres moment in game where it goes black and i can see enough i guess would be fine as long i can see enough when i go around darker area in the game also sorry to ask you alot of question but can you go more into details about colors are good but not %100 accuarte and colors being good vibrant i guess go more into details about those part !
How does this compare the the 27 inch one? I don't have space for a 32 inch 😅
I haven’t tried the 27inch monitor but the specs are the same so I’d assume overall the same experience.
@InfinniteLife Okay, thank you
Dmoe this snja vnabma
So this one or g70A
Both are great but the 32” g70A is more expensive.
@@InfinniteLife so more expinsive means better ?
Not necessarily. You have to test it out and see for yourself. A good friend of mine has a gigabyte monitor and it looked great so I went with it also. Statistically, the g70A is good on paper but i haven’t seen one in person.
Would you recommend M32U or the Sony Inzone M9
Haven’t used the m9. The one advantage the m9 has is it’s contrast ratio which will make the colors really pop. But otherwise they are both IPS panels. The m9 is a 27” screen vs 32”. And the m9 is almost twice the price.
Best rec, get both, test both out and return the one you don’t want. Let me know what you decide! ✌🏽
The manufacturer is called Gigabyte, not Gigabit.
Ojalá baje de precio
Gigabit M32U? lol thats what he said at 0:08...
Hahah yup that was a clear fail on me. 🤣🤣🤣
Someone told me the HDMI 2.1 isn’t a true 2.1 output
Why would it not be “true” 2.1? I’m able to get 120hz and VRR refresh rate, HDR and ALLM. The only way you will get these features is with HDMI 2.1!
m32uc is better
How’s the viewing angle? Did u notice any washout of colors?
@@javirivera1825 well the curve helps that and i sit directly in the middle of it at a desk so no issues, and i am usually in a dim lit room which is perfect for this monitor. no wash out really but it can be adjusted, other monitors i couldn't get the washed colors out, but this one hdr was better.
And with the flat panel, there’s no washout unless you are at a very extreme viewing angle.
@@InfinniteLife Thanks for intel. I know you have a single setup on your video, but would the IPS version be better for a dual monitor setup (due to viewing angles)? Was thinking of curved but if I have them side by side most likely wont be centered on each one.
nope response time is slower
Clip yo damn nails... xD
Lol, when reviewing hardware, at least get the company name correct, it’s not GigaBIT, it’s GigaBYTE.
Honest mistake. Lesson learned. Thanks for watching!
