@RoyalBoyle78 I only game on it. I don't use my pc for anything other than gaming lol. Probably went overkill with the monitor but it was well worth it
a waste of your money they are still not bright dude say's in video the colors would have poped more lol that's because it's not bright enough even though they increased it.
@@Keltzzzzyou guys with the brightness and High Nits crap, no screen needs to be 1000 nits for Oled to look good. Learn the technology better. This GS model gets plenty height to satisfy
@@tyrellcuriel6925 ngl if you're only using it for your PS5 then it's super overkill. You'd be paying for way more than you really need. Different story if you were using it for both PS5 and pc, since it supports 240hz and the PS5 is limited to 120hz. If you're planning on getting a pc in the near future then sure, otherwise save your money and buy a 120hz HDMI 2.1 monitor.
I have the 27GR95QE, the previous model with seemingly a bit lower brightness but I removed the antiglare coat and now its SO much brighter and colors are...well.. they look better, more vibrant and saturated.
@@FIREWOLFTECH Ofc you can, best thing is you dont even have to disassemble it since theres no frame, just takes around 8-10 hours cos the adhesive is quite stubborn, sprayed it a bit every half an hour, if you dont over-do it and just keep it averagely wet the foil peels of very easily after 10hr. I would probably return the monitor if I couldnt do this cos the coating messes up the brightness and colors in my opinion significantly, every bit counts.
@@XTendingYT idk wtf that is, but whatever it is, if it's newer, it will probably be brighter, and if doesn't have the annoying vignette effect of brightness then it's probably that much better
I just can't decide between the MSI 271QRX and this 27GS95QE. I mostly play with PS5 and sometimes PC games. I have a sound on my desk with an Optical audio, which would be great support with the LG screen. I guess my only issue with the LG is the indeed the matte screen coating but again, the 271QRX glossy screen has raised black in ambient lighting conditions. Sometimes I play during the day....
@@Alfie0001 I just did a review on the AW2725DF which uses the same 3rd gen QD-OLED panel as the MSI. The only issue with that one is no Audio Out options
I touched the MSI screen and it was impossible for me to remove the smudge, something that nobody talks but I end up returning up cuz I got a dud version called MAG that doesn't support firmware updates and gsync wasn't able to down to 60hz on its own, it actually never matched the FPS on screen causing some micro stutters
Finally a monitor which meets all I wanted before upgrading from my by now 11 year old monitor.. 240Hz OLED 1440p 27 inch and as of now just 599.. wow and as a loving LG Monitor user (as said mine turned just 11).. with 60Hz IPS 1080p 27 inch.. I think it's worth the upgrade finally.
@@FIREWOLFTECH Yeah Im still using my LG 27MA73D-PZ look it up I mean if you are honest it still looks almost like todays monitors it was their "flagship" back than even having a TV receiver build in and a nice IPS for its age. But the good thing: it also only delivers up to 250 cd/m² and thats fine for me so.. I guess it will be huge cant wait for the black week deals and find a good deal in the next weeks. :)
Hello I’m late but thank you just bought it today at Best Buy for 650$ on Black Friday , it’s awesome I’m happy with my purchase I play ps5 and my 4070 with it

Since you love the 27GR, I know many will find the new 27GS an amazing monitor as well. The leds look cool, but you could always have them off lol or put your own lights. How do you feel about the anti reflective coating ?
Hi, may I know did you or any LG 27GS95QE owner has these 2 issues? 👀 For Gaming - Noticeable VRR flicker with changing frame rates. For Office Use - Some text clarity issues due to RWBG layout.
@ I got it, and it's super clean!! I love it. Also, it's awesome if you turn on the HDR! I will post a short video about it soon. I'm enjoying my black ops 6 with it.
I like using the standard colors for normal use, and FPS when gaming on MW3. I also increase the brightness to 100% But I recommend looking through each mode to see what you like. You may need 2 different ones when you game
Amazing monitor, design, backlight, I enjoyed controlling the monitor with the controller. Unfortunately, in absolute silence, the monitor fan made strange disturbing noises. Exchange for another piece was not possible, as it was not in stock and availability was unknown. The MPG 271QRX QD-OLED was available, so I paid extra and took it. The 271QRX doesn't have a fan, which is great. I am satisfied, but being lg 27gs95qe-b without a fan, or if it was at least not audible, I would not change. Anyway, nice review.
If I don't play, I don't know about PC (custom loop liquid cooling). And that's thanks to the Noctua NF-A12x25 PWM. I think the picture is better with 271qrx. Probably also thanks to the non-matte surface. I only play games in the evening. When my daughter is already sleeping, so I don't notice any negatives. During the day, I don't have a large light source behind me, which is said to bother qd-oled. I don't like the stand on the 271qrx, LG has a beautiful one. I believe that for most people the fan will not be a problem and they will enjoy the Lg 27gs95qe-b as it is otherwise great.
Hello, Does anyone know what the difference is between a LG UltraGear OLED 27GS95QE-B and a LG UltraGear OLED 27GS95QX-B? Has the QX any advantages because it's a bit more expensive?
There’s definitely a huge difference in size, and the latest C3 Oled is very tempting with its price so I understand the tough decision 😅 Since your desk isn’t big, a 27-inch or even a 32-inch monitor would be a better choice in your setup. You also want to consider lighting, since the matte display on the LG 27 will be better in brighter environments. The oled TV will by far give you a better picture quality because of the glossy display and it also has good built in speakers 🔊 it’s not 100% PC friendly, but if you’re only using console, then it is a better value if you have the space for it.
Unfortunately the really long stand (depth) makes this monitor incompatible with my setup, since my top shelf only has nine inches to actually place on. Bummer. But, I’m also going to use this mainly for office use, so maybe OLED in general doesn’t make sense for my situation. Gaming would obviously be phenomenal on this though
Update! I was able to completely remove the top shelf, which makes my setup now compatible with this monitor? The question is, is it worth the dough ($729)?
This is my second setup, I used what I had at the moment. Trust me it bothers me too lol Check out my other recent monitor videos and you’ll see my main setup 🔥
Wait you said it doesn't notify you for pixel clean and just automatically does it after 4 hours of use? So does it just cut off or does it only do it in standby?
@@RogueStatusX doesn't mean it can't have USB-C and KVM switch. In fact brands like ASUS ROG are more "gamer" but they usually add these useful features
The razor speaker is hooked up with USB-C cable. My PC has a USB-C input, but if yours doesn’t then you could get a USB-C to USB-A adapter. I’ve only used this temporary though until I got dual speakers 🔊 I appreciate the feedback 🔥
@@Voltar78 You want a speaker that has an AUX input (PS5) + USB or RCA to 3.5mm (to PC) The speakers that I now use for both gaming setups are the NZXT RELAY Speakers (AUX + RCA) and the Edifier G2000 that I use instead of the Razer soundbar. You can see on my most recent upload, the Edifier G2000 is used during PS5 gameplay
I have one on ps5 and my last monitor was 4k so it transferred the 4k resolution to this monitor in the settings. It gives me a message that it recommends to change it but I have not yet. But it looks absolutely insane compared to the 4k acer predator I was using which also looked great but this is much better
@chrislopez5301 makes sense. I changed it to the recommended settings and it didn't seem to change the resolution. Either way this monitor looks absolutely beautiful in comparison to all the others I've tried so far. I've had probably 20 top of the line monitors in the past year but none looked like this. With the exception of the Samsung 49 oled which is just not ideal for console with the aspect ratio for me.
If I remember correctly, there was just the thin foam bag surrounding the monitor. The recent LG 34 and 39 GS models I just reviewed didn’t have a dedicated screen protector either. I think it’s because the matte coating isn’t prone to scratches
Hi Fire Wolf! , great review! Y have a question. Yesterday I bought the previous version on sale in my country (Spain) for 700€, since LG don't sell the new update and I doubt it will come out at the same price that the old one. There are other external sellers who sell it, but very expensive ( + 1000 €) ... Do you think I made a good purchase or should I wait for the new version to be released? Cheers!
It depends on how you find the brightness levels on the previous version. In my opinion, the new version has brighter display and better sub pixel layout so I would wait; But since you got a good price on the previous version, it may not be worth spending more. Either way, OLED is awesome 🔥
I bought it last Thursday in Amazon Spain at 833, guess at that price is good. It arrived yesterday and I'm still doing some tests. Also we have at 800 the Asus XG27AQDM but it comes with glossy panel.
it's weird that the screen doesn't come with a plastic screen protector pre-installed to peel off during unboxing .. I wonder why LG decided to ship it that way ..
There always is, even in 1080p, DP is vastly superior, and i realised that when i played tarkov back at my parents for 2 weeks and my kda dipped so low because i couldnt see shit in the distance, when i bought a dp for heir pc i instantly could make out enemies in bushes and have a way nicer quality
@@thetragedian4199that's not always the case, it depends on which HDMI standard you have, if both your GPU and display support HDMI 2.1 it will be virtually the same upto like 4k 144hz, older HDMI standards have less bandwidth hence might compromise the quality if you are running at high enough resolution and framerate
Same reason why almost all monitors have matte coatings, it deflects light sources the best. If you don’t havd lighting control, and let’s say you get a lot of sunlight coming into the screen, the matte makes it easier to work versus a glossy screen.
Yeah I realized that a little too late. My shotgun mic has a safety channel feature and was enabled the whole time I recorded part of the footage which was causing the audio to go on the left. I am now aware of this feature 🥲
Its an issue with every oled just not a big one there is ways to prevent burn in to the point that it is highly unlikely. For example use wallpaper engine to have the pixels change colour regularly, hide the windows taskbar aswell as the icons. In short you should be fine as long as you dont have any static pictures or icons on the screen for to long
I have this monitor as a vertical side monitor, i use a samsung 43 inch Qled tv as a main monitor, somehow I feel like the colors on the samsung are more punchy, when ever I look at the lg monitor I feel like there is this red tint to the color, i like a cooler color, been in the menu cant see how to adjust that.
Need help with LG 27gs95qe I just picked up this 27 inch 1440p OLED. Out of the box settings are not it, but I can’t seem to change them? I can only select preset modes and can only edit the brightness. All other settings are greyed out as well as the reader preset. I’m on ps5 and I am using the hdmi cord that came with the monitor and it’s plugged into hdmi 1. Thanks in advance for help.
PS5 has HDR enabled all the time that is why you can't change the settings. Disable HDR in PS5 to change the settings, although I wouldn't recommend doing it as HDR is the main reason people buy OLEDs.
Hey man, great video! Can I ask you a question regarding your setup? I have this exact same monitor and am in the market for a soundbar. I noticed your Razer Soundbar and wondered how you have yours to work with this monitor. I ask because I purchased a Dell USB soundbar but returned it because my LG Monitor’s USB port wouldn’t power it up.
Which G7 do you have ? Samsung likes to reuse the same name lol If it’s the one with 27” QHD resolution, in my opinion it’s worth it for the creamy OLED panel and faster response time but still keeping the 1440P resolution. Just keep in mind that this screen is flat, because I think the G7 is curved.
just upgrade from the old g7 which is 1440p and va. The gs is amazing! And I have tried Alienware 2725 and returned it because this one is obviously brighter and has better user interface. The display is amazing and I just happily sold my g7 yesterday~
I have this LG and the Neo G8 (MiniLED). I use both monitors often for different games. Any competitive fps is on the LG and it’s awesome. But, everything else is noticeably better on the G8. I have a 4090 so can actually utilize the G8. If I had a 4070ti or lower, I’d go with the LG and call it a day.
@@scarpint3I use this LG OLED as a side monitor and a Samsung mini led as a main, I also feel like the picture on the Samsung is just so much more punchy
I didn't try out 60Hz gaming on PC, the only game on this video that was 60Hz was Astros World (PS5) and I didn't notice ghosting, but its also not a fast action game so I can't say for sure
Yeah for air, I think the USB-C to HDMI 2.1 might be limited to 120, if that’s the case, try USB-C to DisplayPort. I know depending on the Mac might also differ
I don't remember too much, but I'm right now I'm testing the 32GS95UE and I always prefer using SDR for FPS because you can always adjust the black levels making it easier to see
I tried using direct lighting to showcase how the light diffuses it. Take a moment and look into my latest 39GS95QE and 34GS96QE reviews. I made a better effort to include bright room, sunlight, and extra lighting.
Do you have any suggestions between the semi new asus xg27aqdmg vs this LG one? ive been thinking of upgrading to a 1440p oled finally from a 1080p, and looking for a great monitor for both fps and story games.
merci pour cette vidéo je chercher une vidéo de ce genre pour me conforté dans mon achat xD j'ai hâte de le recevoir voir ce qu'il propose ( je viens d'un écrans 1440p 165hz VA ) donc j'espère ne pas être déçu
Considering getting this monitor on amazon. currently on sale for $599. I have a 3440 x 1440p IPS panel atm and have been considering going back to 16:9 since it's more supported. Thoughts on if this would be worth it?
Def check the model since 27GR and 27GS(this one) are hard to tell apart. But either way, if it’s used, then it’s not a surprise since monitors usually don’t hold their value
Flickering is real with Gsync. Can't play with my RTX 4070TI. I had to return the screen. However, I have 2 LG 27GP850 screens with 180hz QHD IPS panels and I don't have this flickering problem. What a huge disappointment.
@@Davidforprofit ok I think I’m gonna buy it. I have a 1080p 240hz monitor since 2021. I just built a new pc like three months ago w the 4070super and 7800x3d. And I rly want 1440
@@Trusttheprocess927 that's the exact combo I have and I had an Asus 27 inch IPS 1440p monitor and it was pretty good but after getting this OLED it's been a lot better. If you have the money it's 100% worth it and LG makes some of the best if not the best OLED panels
Some guy is selling this monitor for $400 on facebook. Should i pick it up. Is this an upgrade from ips ? If so, it would make a pretty good present for my kid on christmas. He plays a bunch of games on his pc. It has an rtx 3080 and a ryzen 5800x3d.
Amazing review! Thinking about buying this monitor, however I am also planning to use it for PS 5 gaming and you've mentoned that 4k monitor would be a better experience for it. So I'm in doubts now. It's not going to be my main reason buying that monitor as I am also going to play on PC with this that guy, but still. So I'm think either buy this monitor, or 32 4k IPS. And yes, I also working a lot at home, but you said ultra-wide is more profitable. I think I want too much from one thing and I need to consider which one to buy xD
It’s tough 😅 if you got space then get 2 monitors one optimized for productivity, and the other for gaming. But if you have to choose a do it all, I would personally choose 32-inch 4K or a 49-inch Super UltraWide. I think GPU plays a role in the decision factor as well, since you’ll want a strong PC for 4K unless if you plan on downscaling I really appreciate the feedback 🔥 there’s just so many options so I feel you in trying to find the one you want
Every monitor I’ve been researching you have a review published, just perfect. Subscribed.
Thanks for the sub ! I appreciate it 🔥

@@FIREWOLFTECH I wanna hookup the ultragear GP3 sound bar, will I be able to do it on this monitor? Thanks again
I don't know much about that soundbar, but it being an UltraGear Soundbar should be fully compatible
What speakers set will be compatible with pc and ps5? @@FIREWOLFTECH
@@Voltar78 You want a speaker that has an AUX input (PS5) + USB or RCA to 3.5mm (to PC)
The speakers that I now use for both gaming setups are the NZXT RELAY Speakers (AUX + RCA) and the Edifier G2000 that I use instead of the Razer soundbar. You can see on my most recent upload, the Edifier G2000 is used during PS5 gameplay
Hi! Is it hdmi 2.1? And does it have an option for lights on the back that change according to gameplay?
Hi, does this monitor have DAS enabled in any picture modes? Such as sRGB?
I have one on ps5 and my last monitor was 4k so it transferred the 4k resolution to this monitor in the settings. It gives me a message that it recommends to change it but I have not yet. But it looks absolutely insane compared to the 4k acer predator I was using which also looked great but this is much better
It doesnt transfer that not how it works some 1440p monitors can recieve 4k signals its just downscaled better to play at 1440p native
@chrislopez5301 makes sense. I changed it to the recommended settings and it didn't seem to change the resolution. Either way this monitor looks absolutely beautiful in comparison to all the others I've tried so far. I've had probably 20 top of the line monitors in the past year but none looked like this. With the exception of the Samsung 49 oled which is just not ideal for console with the aspect ratio for me.
Mine came today does anybody know why there was no screen protaction piece on the monitor?
If I remember correctly, there was just the thin foam bag surrounding the monitor. The recent LG 34 and 39 GS models I just reviewed didn’t have a dedicated screen protector either.
I think it’s because the matte coating isn’t prone to scratches
Hi Fire Wolf! , great review! Y have a question. Yesterday I bought the previous version on sale in my country (Spain) for 700€, since LG don't sell the new update and I doubt it will come out at the same price that the old one. There are other external sellers who sell it, but very expensive ( + 1000 €) ... Do you think I made a good purchase or should I wait for the new version to be released? Cheers!
It depends on how you find the brightness levels on the previous version.
In my opinion, the new version has brighter display and better sub pixel layout so I would wait;
But since you got a good price on the previous version, it may not be worth spending more.
Either way, OLED is awesome 🔥
I bought it last Thursday in Amazon Spain at 833, guess at that price is good. It arrived yesterday and I'm still doing some tests. Also we have at 800 the Asus XG27AQDM but it comes with glossy panel.
Does the front bottom bar had purple rgb on it as advertised on almost photos?
Nope
Did you update the monitor?
You notice any flickering with ps5?
it's weird that the screen doesn't come with a plastic screen protector pre-installed to peel off during unboxing ..
I wonder why LG decided to ship it that way ..
This or Samsung odyssey g6? It will be for gaming and for work
does it have the same display panel as in 32GS95UE-B or it is older model?
No, the 32GS95UE-B supports 4K, 480Hz, and is 32".
The 27GS95QE-B runs 1440p at 240Hz and is a 27" monitor.
Hello there, thanks a lot for your review! Is there any difference between DP or HDMI performance-wise? Which one should I use on PC? Thanks!
There always is, even in 1080p, DP is vastly superior, and i realised that when i played tarkov back at my parents for 2 weeks and my kda dipped so low because i couldnt see shit in the distance, when i bought a dp for heir pc i instantly could make out enemies in bushes and have a way nicer quality
@@thetragedian4199that's not always the case, it depends on which HDMI standard you have, if both your GPU and display support HDMI 2.1 it will be virtually the same upto like 4k 144hz, older HDMI standards have less bandwidth hence might compromise the quality if you are running at high enough resolution and framerate
Why they do mate coating? It would be a perfect monitor if it only had a glossy finish.
Same reason why almost all monitors have matte coatings, it deflects light sources the best. If you don’t havd lighting control, and let’s say you get a lot of sunlight coming into the screen, the matte makes it easier to work versus a glossy screen.
Great review, thinking about this monitor or Aorus fo27qr..
What is that great wallpaper on laptop and one at 14:00 min? :)
For some reason I only hear your video on the left side of my headset, but good video thanks!
Yeah I realized that a little too late. My shotgun mic has a safety channel feature and was enabled the whole time I recorded part of the footage which was causing the audio to go on the left. I am now aware of this feature 🥲
Can you play PUBG in this GS and advise us if it is pixelated..or it is as good as 4k as well?
What about the burn-in thing?
Its an issue with every oled just not a big one there is ways to prevent burn in to the point that it is highly unlikely. For example use wallpaper engine to have the pixels change colour regularly, hide the windows taskbar aswell as the icons. In short you should be fine as long as you dont have any static pictures or icons on the screen for to long
Just picked one up. So far so good. Anyone know how to change the battery on the remote?
I have this monitor as a vertical side monitor, i use a samsung 43 inch Qled tv as a main monitor, somehow I feel like the colors on the samsung are more punchy, when ever I look at the lg monitor I feel like there is this red tint to the color, i like a cooler color, been in the menu cant see how to adjust that.
How’d you get rgb to work with the console?
How to turn on rgb lights ??
Need help with LG 27gs95qe
I just picked up this 27 inch 1440p OLED. Out of the box settings are not it, but I can’t seem to change them? I can only select preset modes and can only edit the brightness. All other settings are greyed out as well as the reader preset. I’m on ps5 and I am using the hdmi cord that came with the monitor and it’s plugged into hdmi 1. Thanks in advance for help.
PS5 has HDR enabled all the time that is why you can't change the settings. Disable HDR in PS5 to change the settings, although I wouldn't recommend doing it as HDR is the main reason people buy OLEDs.
Hey man, great video! Can I ask you a question regarding your setup?
I have this exact same monitor and am in the market for a soundbar. I noticed your Razer Soundbar and wondered how you have yours to work with this monitor.
I ask because I purchased a Dell USB soundbar but returned it because my LG Monitor’s USB port wouldn’t power it up.
seems like they fixed the brightness issue over the old model
You think it’s worth the upgrade coming from a g7 odyssey???? Been back in forth on the idea for a month now. Good in depth review btw!
Which G7 do you have ? Samsung likes to reuse the same name lol
If it’s the one with 27” QHD resolution, in my opinion it’s worth it for the creamy OLED panel and faster response time but still keeping the 1440P resolution.
Just keep in mind that this screen is flat, because I think the G7 is curved.
just upgrade from the old g7 which is 1440p and va. The gs is amazing! And I have tried Alienware 2725 and returned it because this one is obviously brighter and has better user interface. The display is amazing and I just happily sold my g7 yesterday~
Awesome ! thanks for sharing your experience 🔥
I have this LG and the Neo G8 (MiniLED). I use both monitors often for different games. Any competitive fps is on the LG and it’s awesome. But, everything else is noticeably better on the G8. I have a 4090 so can actually utilize the G8. If I had a 4070ti or lower, I’d go with the LG and call it a day.
@@scarpint3I use this LG OLED as a side monitor and a Samsung mini led as a main, I also feel like the picture on the Samsung is just so much more punchy
How do I maximize 120fps in my LG monitor and PS5 settings?
Did they fix the ghosting issue while gaming at 60Hz on this model? I know that was an issue with the previous monitor.
I didn't try out 60Hz gaming on PC, the only game on this video that was 60Hz was Astros World (PS5) and I didn't notice ghosting, but its also not a fast action game so I can't say for sure
I watched this video again, ask, how do you have the Mac connected so that it gives you those 240hz? I have an air m2 and that option does not appear.
I use the HDMI port on the MacBook Pro M3 Max, it has HDMI 2.1
@@FIREWOLFTECH I imagined it but since I have an air then I must have a cable that gives me that 2.1 output!. Thanks
Yeah for air, I think the USB-C to HDMI 2.1 might be limited to 120, if that’s the case, try USB-C to DisplayPort.
I know depending on the Mac might also differ
@@FIREWOLFTECH perfect, thanks!
Just before i buy one would you take this or the msi mag 271QPX OLED E2
Which HDR mode you prefer? Did you notice that the blacks are crushed on Gamer 1 mode?
I don't remember too much, but I'm right now I'm testing the 32GS95UE and I always prefer using SDR for FPS because you can always adjust the black levels making it easier to see
Biggest problem with OLEDs is brightness and the review didn't show the panel in a bright room/sunlight
I tried using direct lighting to showcase how the light diffuses it.
Take a moment and look into my latest 39GS95QE and 34GS96QE reviews. I made a better effort to include bright room, sunlight, and extra lighting.
This or the xg27aqdmg?
Very tough decision i need help.
Whats the difference from 27GR95qe?
Brighter
@@MrAustin575 is that the only difference bro? I cant find any comparison vids on yt. Thanks for replying btw
@@haroldjaybornea545 yes I believe so. Just updated because initially complains of low brightness.
@@MrAustin575 thanks for the info bro. Have a good day!
i heard the txt is really hard to read. Had any issues with that?
Is this the latest generation of oled panel from LG?
Do you have any suggestions between the semi new asus xg27aqdmg vs this LG one? ive been thinking of upgrading to a 1440p oled finally from a 1080p, and looking for a great monitor for both fps and story games.
Does it have a dirty screen affect? Pls respond
Which Brightness Settings do you recommend for HDR ? High?

Can you connect speakers to this monitor I want it for console gaming
how do you adjust the height

Considering getting this monitor on amazon. currently on sale for $599. I have a 3440 x 1440p IPS panel atm and have been considering going back to 16:9 since it's more supported. Thoughts on if this would be worth it?
What did you go with?
@x7Votorious84x ended up getting the alienware aw3423dw. Oled and keeps the same ultrawide aspect so no compromises. I'm in love with it
Merci, très bonne vidéo 😀
le video sont tres gentile
This monitor goes for under $600 used on eBay so the value has almost cut in half
Doubt it’s this. It’s likely the 27GR not 27GS.
Def check the model since 27GR and 27GS(this one) are hard to tell apart.
But either way, if it’s used, then it’s not a surprise since monitors usually don’t hold their value
Hi bro..even this gs is 1440p can you say that this monitor look like 4K or still you can see some pixels not like 4k?
I have the Asus PG27AQDM and it's similar and looks damn good. Also will do 4k 60hz if I wanted to on my PS5.
Samsung G6 or this of I can this for 200 Dollar less?
Hey, i bought the same monitor last week and couldn't figure out how to turn on the LEDs on the back. maybe you can help me. great review btw
It’s the menu settings, look for hexagon lighting
@@FIREWOLFTECH got it thank you very much
Flickering is real with Gsync. Can't play with my RTX 4070TI. I had to return the screen. However, I have 2 LG 27GP850 screens with 180hz QHD IPS panels and I don't have this flickering problem. What a huge disappointment.

@@Trusttheprocess927 that's the exact combo I have and I had an Asus 27 inch IPS 1440p monitor and it was pretty good but after getting this OLED it's been a lot better. If you have the money it's 100% worth it and LG makes some of the best if not the best OLED panels
Some guy is selling this monitor for $400 on facebook. Should i pick it up. Is this an upgrade from ips ? If so, it would make a pretty good present for my kid on christmas. He plays a bunch of games on his pc. It has an rtx 3080 and a ryzen 5800x3d.
Definitely a big upgrade I went from a nano ips panel to this oled it blows it out of the water
Where did u get those Charizard keyboard or keycaps
the charizard keyboard is from Higround's limited edition drops

How's the HDR?
Terrible so dark you can barely see anything
Amazing review! Thinking about buying this monitor, however I am also planning to use it for PS 5 gaming and you've mentoned that 4k monitor would be a better experience for it. So I'm in doubts now. It's not going to be my main reason buying that monitor as I am also going to play on PC with this that guy, but still. So I'm think either buy this monitor, or 32 4k IPS. And yes, I also working a lot at home, but you said ultra-wide is more profitable. I think I want too much from one thing and I need to consider which one to buy xD
It’s tough 😅 if you got space then get 2 monitors one optimized for productivity, and the other for gaming.
But if you have to choose a do it all, I would personally choose 32-inch 4K or a 49-inch Super UltraWide.
I think GPU plays a role in the decision factor as well, since you’ll want a strong PC for 4K unless if you plan on downscaling
I really appreciate the feedback 🔥 there’s just so many options so I feel you in trying to find the one you want
It’s not a better experience. Either 1440P you unlock 120hz. Hope you didn’t listen
This one or Benq mobiuz EX3210U 4k?? I'm very undecisive
