None of these OLED monitors will survive beyond 3 years of heavy desktop use.
You can see how the OLED's are faring here:

S95C has shown no burn in after 10 months/6000...
Yeah I owned the MSI QD-OLED. Great motion clarity but looked like garbage to me in most HDR content. The first time I launched an HDR game I went in the OSD to see if maybe brightness was at like 20% and then realized that's all it was really...
I also think the LG is by far the best design. It has no chin and looks super clean. If you're someone who is anti monitor arm the stand is also really unintrusive.
Majority of monitors KVM functionality are trash. I think people should keep expectations in check when buying a display designed for media/gaming consumption that happens to have KVM.
Sorry if that comes off harsh but I'm just getting tired...
I always use Alan Wake II as my VRR flicker test. That opening section really demonstrates it well even with crazy hardware.
Yeah I don't really think this monitor is worth anywhere near $1300. It will eventually settle at around $1000 with...
I think Asus will for sure push the panel harder. They've done so with every WOLED model vs it's LG variant. It will also come much better calibrated out the box.
The 2 deterrents are Asus firmware issues and the fact that it will probably land...
People have been having issues applying it all morning while it works for others no problem. Try different zip codes.
Edit: I think the code is now dead.
Yeah the 20% applies when 2 additional items are added. HDMI cable + $20 wireless mouse.
Like all these promo stacking deals, act fast because it will stop working soon since there is no way it was suppose to work on this monitor.
I wish there was an affordable Spectro to use alongside all of the relatively cheap colorimeters. Seems like the only option is spending $1500 from what I've seen.
Heads up to those in the USA. You can add 2 extra cheapo items to your cart like cables/etc to get an additional 20% off on top of the 15% promo code that was posted in this thread (HECAxxxxx - use your zip code). Also Topcashback is giving 12%...
I dunno if it really makes any difference in actual content. It still clips at right around 1600nits in the HDRCalibration app and highlights look incredibly bright in games.
I leave HDR on 24/7 which is one of the benefits of this monitor since so few handle HDR on the desktop well. With RTX HDR and the SDR to HDR video enhancement from Nvidia, it's too inconvenient to swap back and forth based on the content I'm...
I don't personally turn it off on the desktop because its not really intrusive enough to do so. Its not like Samsung FALD on the desktop that dims the cursor and adjacent zones around windows making the entire desktop look oddly cloudy. This...
I remember people posting about the left and right turning orange under certain conditions but I can't remember how to recreate it. If does lemme know and I'll try.
There was definitely some stealth firmware updates at some point in production. This late 2023 produced one I have looks dimmer in super high APL stuff (previous one was blinding at times) and there is some strange ABL that can be recreated in...
