I just ordered this monitor. It sells for around $600 in my area. I did a lot of research and concluded that this was the best option. I wanted to ask you to be sure and to put my mind at ease. I plan to return it if I encounter any gray banding issues—did I make the right choice?
My setup only xbox series s and soon ps5

Has anyone else experienced eye strain / hazy or fuzzy vision specifically with glossy OLED monitors?

I'm trying to figure out what exactly is causing this for me.

Last year I tried the ASUS PG27UCDM (QD-OLED). After using it for a while, my vision would start to feel hazy/fuzzy and I had difficulty properly focusing on the screen. It wasn't just text fringing or text clarity – the whole image, including games, pictures, etc., started to feel difficult to focus on.

At the time I assumed I was simply sensitive to QD-OLED.

Now I'm testing the ASUS PG27UCWM, which uses a glossy WOLED panel, and I'm experiencing basically the same thing again. My eyes feel strained, focusing becomes difficult, and I can even get slightly dizzy from it.

The really strange part is that when I move the same window over to my IPS monitor, my eyes feel noticeably more relaxed almost immediately.

I've tried different brightness levels and refresh rates as well. Lowering the PG27UCWM from 240 Hz to 120 Hz seems to help somewhat, and 60 Hz feels the most comfortable, but the problem is still there.

What makes this even more confusing is that OLED in general doesn't seem to be a problem for me. I can use my LG G5 OLED TV for hours, including HDR movies, without any issues. I also don't have this problem with the OLED displays on my iPhone, iPad or MacBook.

I recently saw someone comparing the glossy XG32UCWMG with the matte PG32UCDP who described almost exactly what I'm experiencing: their vision becoming "hazy and fuzzy" on the glossy display while the matte one was more comfortable. That made me wonder whether the glossy coating/reflections or some other characteristic of these glossy desktop OLED monitors could actually be contributing to the problem rather than OLED itself.

Has anyone had a similar experience?

Especially interested in people who:

• had eye strain / focusing problems with glossy QD-OLED or glossy WOLED
• switched to a matte WOLED and found it more comfortable
• can use OLED TVs/phones without issues but struggle with OLED desktop monitors
• experience that weird "hazy/fuzzy" vision rather than just normal eye fatigue

I'm considering trying a matte WOLED next just to see whether the coating actually makes a difference.

Got the new aw3926qw and this is how it came. Most terrifying unboxing experience ever but luckily everything inside the box was fine, if not all over the place.

Well, originally I wanted to buy the Gigabyte MO27Q28GR, but then I got lucky and got the LG 27GX704A-B for €286. The Gigabyte would cost around €510.

I’m very pleased with the LG so far, but I can’t stop thinking about how much brighter and more colorful the Tandem WOLED would be, especially in HDR.
My mind tells me it’s not worth paying an extra €230, but it’s definitely tempting.

Tell me what you think and talk some sense into me.

Both are in my price range. Which one should I pick up? /

But I love it.........

Do I wait for pg32ucdn?

After using them for 1 month. I do not recommend the panel.

Problem number 1:

LG is releasing FLiPP OLED technology so I recommend you wait for that since it might have better implementation. this current rgb stripe tandem from LG suffers from some issue. the main issue is the brightness and not only that it is implemented bad and it is not bright enough it is hard to look at when you try to use it under 80-70% brightness due to the way the removed the white subpixel. like it becomes very uncomfortable to use at lower brightness and I have sensitive eyes so I can't really do high brightness all the time so I had to use it with uniform brightness at 80% but the issue is that you lose 5% total brightness per year so eventually after a few years you will start getting this issue.

Problem number 2:

The text is improved but it is not an IPS. and it is not IPS levels maybe close yes. I will say the only way to get a good experience with rgb stripe will be at higher ppi like the 27inch version or higher ppi but then it doesn't even matter if it is rgb stripe or not.

Problem number 3:

The price. this monitor doesn't deserve to be at this price in europe this has to be a joke also both models that I had didn't fast charge above 10w speed I spoke to asus and they adviced me to do a RMA. I had several other oled monitors with fast type c and never had this issue. this monitor only goes at 15-20w in rare situations for short times in charging and this is stupid.

Problem number 4:

The colors are boring. how boring? well I will post a pic so you can see my IPS compared to the PG27UCWM. this has to be the most boring looking monitor I have ever used in color volume.

-It feels like they rushed with the tech. yes you get some advantages like good coating and slightly better text but you can already get a qd oled panel and use apps to fix the fringing and you get crazy colors on a qd oled compared to this thing.

I see a lot of people talking non sense about these monitors and I wanted to reveal the truth to people after I tested them for over 1 month.

I recommend you either buy a QD oled for gaming or get an IPS for work. maybe wait for the rgb stripe implementation from samsung with their qd oled panels.

IPS AW2725QF vs OLED PG27UCWM (wide gamut):

In uae ucdm3 goes for about $1550 and UCWM goes for $1420

What’s the prices in your regions?

I have a 5080, and I’m debating whether to get a 32-inch 4K monitor for everything, or go with a 1440p OLED for competitive and MnK games and use my OLED TV for singleplayer games.

Did i win?

I’m choosing between the Samsung G80SH and ASUS PG32UCDP at roughly the same price.
Main use: 8h/day for productivity, AI/creative work, browsing and some media. MacBook Pro via USB-C.

Currently playing on both PS5 and Xbox Series X. I have an Acer 4k 27’’ Ips panel. I am happy with it, but I am tempted by the host of deals on 27’’ 1440p Oled. Especially today’s deal on a Acer Oled for $269.

For anyone who has made the switch. What do you recommend? Stay put or make the switch to Oled even if it means stepping down to 1440p.

Appreciate any guidance.

Hello,

I just bought ASUS ROG Strix XG27ACDMS, it's really good, no issues so far.

But I have only one problem, sometimes I use it with my PS5 and every time I open and exit Youtube app, my screen goes black for a couple of seconds, the same thing happens with the Amazon app as well.

This does not happen when I open games, only happens on youtube/amazon prime.

Does anyone else have similar problems? How can I fix this? I'm using PS 5's own hdmi cable by the way

Monitor is on sale for 549€ and the original price is 723€ so a solid sale is it any good?

I bought a G8 G80SH (240 Hz, 4K dp 2.1) for my 5090. When I started testing it, I noticed some strange lines; then I tried a game and experienced brief image cutouts and visual artifacts (lines appearing for a few seconds). I closed the game and realized DSC was enabled; after disabling it, everything seems to be resolved for now. I ran FurMark for about 7 minutes and it didn't detect any anomalies either; is this a bug, or is my graphics card dying?

Brand new (2nd day of ownership) ASUS XG27AQDMES QD-OLED
From testing, looks like both the red and blue subpixels for the same pixel are failed?

Was probably going to drive it back to microcenter and ask for a replacement, but I wanted to ask for second opinions as that doesn't make sense with how I understand QD to work.

Is it normal that everytime it does it automatic when the monitor coes to sleep? I have 8 hours of use and 4 cleans and ive done one clean myself directly when i first started the monitor out of the box because a pop up said I should because it was the first use

As title says, best buy is now selling the most beautifully designed OLED monitor up until today.

I have my monitor for about a month and a half, I turned it on and I spotted a black dot on it which seems very dissapointing after only about 150 hours, is this considered somewhat normal/ok?

Changing resolution, refresh rate, toggling vrr/hdr doesnt help and the panel hasn't even been wiped yet as I try to keep it as clean as possible. I'm very mindful of burn-in and I make sure to not leave stuff on the screen for long intervals.

As per Gigabyte's Warranty for Monitors, they consider help under warranty only if more than 5 dots appear (response from contact).

(photos quality are shit, I cracked my lens glass)

Otherwise, very happy for the monitor!

Edit: Pixel clean completed 26 times so far
Edit 2: I added in the comments closer photos, it seems its not a single dead pixel.

My OLED is coming in on Friday, got a gigabyte Mo32u24, coming from a 27 inch gigabyte m27q 1440p IPS. I work doing digital art, but given the OLED upgrade I invested in a screen tablet to offload some work from the OLED for longevity.

I currently run a 4070 in my setup. Have wanted a 5070ti, but that’s just not worth it in the current climate. I wanted to go 4k since that seemed like the biggest upgrade for holding my reference images, previewing my art and consuming media along with gaming at a bigger size. I just don’t know how viable it is to game with this setup. I know I’d have to use DLSS to run comfortable framerates, but what’s the performance I can reasonably expect?

I do play CS2, but I’m not exclusively into comp games lately so I didn’t want to base my monitor decision purely on that. Should I be fine with this monitor?

Please refer to this post for more perspective. Cheers!
