Now there is even a more "commercial" alternative like the Asus MX34VQ, same panel as the MicroBoard.

Yeah, I agree, considering the specs, the price doesn't seem too high to me too. The upcoming Asus 32" HDR model will be similarly priced, even a tad more. For me 32" with 4K it's a bit on the small side, especially considering how bad Photoshop scales..

How bright have you set it? Looks like a problem of excessive brightness to me. If you are looking at it mostly in a moderately lit environment, I'd advice not to go above 110 nits with brightness settings. A simple calibration tool like ColorMunki Display helps a lot finding the sweet spot...

The curve seems not different to me, you can easily tell from the pictures that it is hardly curved like the Philips, i.e. 3000R. I do not know why they are reporting 1800R in the specs, I have the Philips and it totally looks the same to me, even the inputs are in the same position, so I...

Take a look even at the just released Asus MX34VQ, it is a bit more costly than the LG34UC88 but it has 100Hz (and a VA panel instead of IPS, but this is a subjective preference)

Read my small review on the official thread and, better, watch the PC Monitor review: it's not a matter of being only 60Hz, unfortunately the Philips (and so the AOC I imagine, as the panel is most likely the same) has serious issues in terms of ghosting and traililng as the panel is too slow to...

Right, and curvature is 3000R, not 1800R, it's very slight. As said, it's quite good for image editing and general purposes, not so good for gaming.

As soon as I manage to set up my camera properly will do. Even if it's quite noticeable on a total black screen, since I got zero dead pixels and a quite uniform panel, I decided to live with it and not returning the display at the end, but I can understand that other people could be more...

Guess won't interest many in this forum, but here is my user report after three days of utilisation: - Size: of course this thing is quite massive, especially coming from a 20", but the slight curve helps in not being too overwhelmed. Probably the provided stand is a tad too high and the...

I have to do further tests of course, but as far as general use is concerned, I've haven't noticed anything strange or particularly disturbing in terms of slow transitions or ghosting for non-demanding uses. I'm not gaming on PC anymore, but will try some to see myself how bad it is. My unit...

If as you said you are not printing or photo editing and you are already happy with the IQ of your display, probably just for gaming a calibration tool is not worth the expense, even bacause you risk that the image, while ending being more accurate as far as color and contrast go, could lack...

Disappointment in which respect? If you refer to its gaming capabilities of course it's definitely not the monitor of choice, but for generale usage and photo editing I'm finding it quite a compelling option if you want a big format display. The slight curve helps in both not being overwhelmed...

Does SmartControl works with this panel to anyone that has bought it? Tried to install the II 1.4 version and with my AMD 260X all regulations controls when I launch the software are just greyed out.. Ok, with Smart Control Premium seems to work, although not all OSD controls are available...

The new Asus MX34VQ ultrawide seems to be a reasonable compromise between all mentioned aspects, has 100Hz and Freesync if you have an AMD card. Not particularly cheap though at around 800 USD.

Ordered one anyway, as I'm basically not gaming but will use it for general PC purposes and non-professional pictures editing. Does anyone know if it's confirmed that it doesn't support HDCP on any input? (really strange in 2017 for a 4K display, but it really seems the case from the specs..)

Well, do not be so sure, there are still a lot of display on sale that are not HDCP 2.2 compliant, for the same (inexplicable to me) reason that almost all displays currently sold come with DP 1.2 while the 1.4 version has been already available for quite a while (heck there are still monitors...

Yeah, can totally be. I do not know why, but display manufacturer tend not to reveal in the specs what version of HDCP is supported, forcing consumer to browser aimlessly on the web in order to find it.. Considering that's a feature that can make or break a video chain, I guess it's quite a big...

I doubt it, since the manufacturer doesn't specify it. According to Displayspecification the only one supporting it is the new Benw PD3200U: http://www.displayspecifications.com/en/comparison/bdcfb1c3

It's written VA in the specs: https://www.asus.com/us/Commercial-Monitors/PB328Q/specifications/ And believe me, it's a quite known fact that is AMVA, there are several reviews around (and they do not seem to mention any frame skipping at max refresh)

Honestly 49" seems quite overkill to me for a PC display, how far can you actually sit from it? Already from a "normal" 80-90cm distance a 40" looks enormous to me.. Even PPIs at that distance will be barely enough for me at a hair less than 90.

Are you totally discarding 34" UW displays? Around 700USD you can order the excellent Microboard M340CLZ (VA panel, 100Hz) or its "twin" Asus MX34VQ for around 800. Not particularly cheap of course, but more immersion in games guaranteed :)

Well, both the Asus PB328Q and the Philips BMD3270QP have quite good image quality to begin with, both in terms of colors (in IPS ballpark according to all reviews I've read) and contrast (at least triple the best of available IPS). They maybe aren't the fastest around for gaming, but they both...

The Asus PB328Q has an AMVA panel, actually the same as the Philips you linked, plus it's 75Hz instead of 60Hz ;)

Why not read "It's not 4K, but"... and has G-Sync btw Subjective opinion of course, but I'd take a UW 1440p @100Hz for gaming all the time vs a 2160p @60Hz..

Why not this? https://pcmonitors.info/reviews/aoc-ag352ucg/ It's not 4K, but I think UW is that much more engrossing for gaming, has 100Hz and it would be quite cheaper too..

I would choose the Asus, contrast is excellent and differently from the HP Omen 32 it doesn't have PWM. The Samsung has a too low resolution for a 32 incher for my tastes.

The AOC was reviewed by PC Monitors and of the Philips you can find a couple of reviews on Youtube in case ;)

Just ordered the BDM4037, will let you know how it fares ;)

All sport an IPS panel, which is not ideal if you plan to watch a lot of movies, contrast ratio and black levels are definitely subpar. Have you considered a VA panel alternative? At 32" 4K unfortunately there isn't much choice at the moment: AOC U3277PWQ or Philips 328P6VJEB. But you have to...

Yeah, of course the risk is there, but consider the following: - it is slightly curved, so at least a bit of the shifting effect should be reduced - you can check PC Monitors review, they have a nice clip on the display's viewing angles, so you can judge yourself in case - I think that such a...

Which Philips are you referring to? the BDM4350? Or the newer BMD4037UW? According to a user in another forum to which I've asked to run a retention test, the latter shouldn't suffer of the issue, and should have even a Pixel Orbiting option in the OSD to be on the safe side. For now never...

Talking about Philips big displays, I'm seriously considering the new BDM4037UW, as I'd prefer a VA panel. I know it's totally unsuitable for gaming but seems quite a nice display for general usage and image editing. Any experience/opinion about it?

Really a good price for the QP2, here in Italy Eur 420 is the least I've found it. Have you calibrated it by chance? What contrast value can you reach more or less?

So does the QP2 actually have a glossy or semi-glossy coating? or at least less matte than the QP? Strange that the Asus costs almost double, where are you from? throughout European shops I've always find it about 100 Eur more than the QP. Apart for the 75Hz, I like the Asus design quite more to...

I bet it sports the same panel as the Philips, even pricing looks basically the same. If that's the case, it won't be a gaming monitor at all unfortunately.. Should be this one: I've stumbled into this one from AOC: http://us.aoc.com/product_feature.php?id=84 Not available in Europe...

Apart from the 75Hz support, is any reason to justify the Asus PB328QP's almost USD/EUR100 higher price? I'm still undecided for which to opt for.. P.S. can anyone confirm that the only difference between the Philips BDM3270QP and QP2 is that the latter one has a glossy screen and max...

Here in Italy I can still see the S27D590C listed on Amazon for ~Eur 330. Talking of 4K displays, for now doesn't seem that in the VA-field there are so many enticing propositions available: - the Innolux-based 32" AOC and Philips have received middling reviews at best, due largely to the...
