If that's the case, you wouldn't use a matte screen.

Good luck running 2x 4K screens for anything other than Minecraft...

According to reviewers its the same coating, so still slightly dirty and veiled, somewhat like semi glossy.

IPS glow is there even when you look at the screen dead center, what are you talking about? Even my glossy 21.5" IPS has white glow quite obvious, and it only gets worse with bigger panels.

This may actually be an area where QD-OLED is better since black crush on the darkest nuances have long been a problem on WOLED. I've solved it by raising black stabilizer in game mode on my LG C2 and dark HDR movies looks much better now.

Yeah, you will be disappointed about the slight veil to the picture of QD-OLED screens when you compare it to Gigabyte FO48U. At least i was with the Alienware AW3423DWF and they all share the same coating as this.

I only use my PC screens in a dim lit room (been a glossy enthusiast on here since 2008, tested many screens). And the washing out of black on QD-OLED (because of the lack of a polarizer) in daylight is the least of the problems with it IMHO. Its practically the same perceived black levels in a...

I don't have them set up side by side now right now. And im not sure a macro shot would show the difference in the coating, rather maybe the difference in pixel layout. Either way its slightly dirty compared to the LG C2, slightly reminiscent of matte, but leagues ahead it.

Please stop spreading misinformation that this is a glossy monitor. Its not. https://youtu.be/MUrKoDACRfQ?t=203 Its semi glossy with a grainy film, you can also call it glossy with a grainy film. Either way its not a clear glossy screen, just like the previous generations. I have the LG C2 42"...

I would maybe go for a gorilla glass Dough Spectrum One 27" 4K HDR 144 Hz Monitor if you don't want risk of burn in or a big screen: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1798804-REG/dough_es07e30_spectrum_one_with_gorilla.html (do not buy from Dough, they have a very bad reputation of not...

I have the LG C2 42". Just found out HDR looks much better when you raise the Black Levels in the Game Optimizer under Picture. Looks more like HDR on a good LCD display now, still with perfect black, but much more shadow detail. There is simply too much black crush and the whole picture looks...

@kramnelis I've been saying this for a while on YT: AW3423DW is not a good screen in terms of brightness and the picture looking fuzzy. When i got the LG C2, it was like night and day in terms of POP and being more clear. Its not the coating making for a slightly veiled "matte" look, but either...

Im one of the biggest glossy screen enthusiast on this forum. I currently use a LG C2 42" OLED TV screen, its pretty much glossy and i highly recommend it for perfect contrast popping HDR. Before that i used a glossy Acer 21.5" 1080p monitor you may actually still find on ebay (Acer H226HQL, see...

March 22. This QD-OLED monitor is awesome to use, but being a glossy lover i have to say this screens picture is slightly veiled, with the same type of smudginess matte monitors have. You dont have the clarity and pop only a glossy monitor gives. Although its lighter than your regular matte...

Finally getting this QD-OLED screen delivered tomorrow. Originally it was slated to be delivered in July, so this is a nice surprise. Lets see if a nitpicky person like me will love this screen as i am very picky about screen coating, hoping this is glossy/ clear enough for me. I do love...

I see they run the same scam as manufacturers do in the west and that is to give top line TVs the glossy AG coating treatment, and give cheaper TVs the semi-glossy matte coating to trick people to believe there is a big difference between TVs with the same panel.

Interesting screen. I guess the tech got left in the dust because of extreme input lag?

Why do people mention a product that hasnt even been announced yet?

You have been scammed by manufacturers like Samsung, blowing up midtones, making them brighter than they are supposed to be. They have done this trick again and again, even with their new QD-OLED TV. When doing a blind-test with real people and calibrated screens, OLED will always win because...

Samsung are scamming people like they have always done with their line of TVs and their complete BS "image quality index" marketing. Its all a scam. They make their cheap TVs with same panel as their top line look intentionally bad in processing and by having a shitty semi-glossy AG coating.

No, troll. Im not.

Cant wait for summer to come (July!) so i can sit in a dark room and play stuff on this. :>

So jealous! Just got an email from Dell that delivery is postponed from May to July...

"The glossy surfaces of typical OLED TVs might increase their appeal in the showroom, but their reflective surfaces can cause distractions when they’re used as a desktop monitor. ROG Swift OLED monitors feature a Micro-texture coating that shows less glare than other options. This allows these...

The red hue could be inherent in the panel because the subpixel is bigger than the blue and green. Looking at pictures and videos close up of the screen on a white background there is definitely a red hue. I hope further iterations of QD-OLED panel tech improve on this. Linus even said he could...

2:48:

Well, if some people say its unbearable, im on the side to believe them since i see problems where people often dont see a difference or is not bothered by it. For example when it comes to matte coated monitors, they are IMHO terrible for image quality. No top line TV is matte, so why the F...

The monitor is using Samsungs new Corning Astra Glass tech:

Nah, im in Norway. Delivery is in 17th of May, cant wait!

Did anyone else manage to buy and order AW3423DW through the Dell site, even though its sold out, like me? 😁

Lmfao! Just got to order a AW3423DW from Dell by reloading the product site over and over and trying to put it in my cart before the the site changes to "sold out". Delivery in middle of May!

It has a matte coating, if you like that crap. I think some people are in for a surprise when companies try to release self-emissive displays with a matte AG coating. On LCDs it might not be so noticeable, but if you just have some light in the room, it will become very noticeable on a OLED how...

Good to see someone with experience give their take. Then again, even someone with a lot of experience can be an ignoramus about certain things. Not saying you are.

What is the difference that you notice other than brightness?

I like what im hearing. Cant wait for for this to come out in Europe. Is there an exact date?

When talking about anti-glare/ anti-reflections, its the same thing. And im not talking about when the screen is in a dark room. Im talking about when there is a lot of light trapped by the screens coating as seen in the video. Is it your video?

You can see the grey blacks in this video because the monitor AG coating traps the light, just like a matte coating. I dont understand why they wouldnt get a premium glossy AG coating like on top model TVs.

Thats a weird pixel structure. If people think this wont make a difference on a macro level, think again. I remember testing the glossy Dell screens and they had some kind of weird pixel structure with lines in the subpixel which made the screen have a screen door effect.

The dream of something close to an end-game monitor might be broken...

Any monitor can be ruined by bad sub-pixel layout or bad non-glossy AG coating. Hope this isnt it. But this doesnt look good. Looks like there are black gaps in the pixel layout:
