Since it keeps getting delayed and I still really like my 42C2, I stopped caring about getting it "earlier" and reordered with the new 20%+15% LG site deal stacking today. Came out to $1054 total at their site. But, If all the cash back crap works it should go down to $860. Not bad.
Note to get...
I wasn't able to stack any of the cashback extension with each other, but was able to stack one of them (Rakuten 9% today), along with credit card cash back (Bank of America 10% for LG next two days), and the HECAzipcode 15% off coupon at LG checkout (heca+zip code promo at least in the us...
Glossy and it's not even close, for me. I just can't stand sparkly white pages or reduced image quality. Have used both extensively for years.
However my office is perfect for glossy, and there is almost never any glare.
I just checked the bestbuy site every few hours and got lucky. Seems like a paper launch, and stock will ramp up in a month or so. I know the Asus was also a paperlaunch, Microcenter manager told me they got less than 40 nationally lol.
Oh darn I really hated that coating, and I hate fans in monitors. Oh well, that's a pity because this thing looks beautiful and pre-order is still up. I hope to see more companies go no bezel lol. Guess I'll go back to trying to get the MSI and ASUS qdoled each time they go in stock for 5...
So uhh this is confirmed matte, that could be a huge dealbreaker for me. Will it use the same heavy grainy matte on their other OLED?
I'm also hearing rumors it has a fan, is that confirmed?
Microcenter is supposed to be getting both the MSI and ASUS in the comming weeks. That should be easy enough to get, unless they don't allow store pickup.
Awesome...looks like a whole bunch of companies ate up that new 32" 4K QDOLED panel. Hopefully that means a lot easier availability than the Dell fiasco in early 2022.
Hmm what nation was he in? In USA, east coast, Best Buy geeksquad people are pretty awesome. Never had an issue like this, always have gotten my store credit back with their protection plans. And MicroCenter is even better, albiet slightly more pricey. I pretty much always get a burn in plan on...
So those 32" 4K 240hz qdoled gen 2 are apparently releasing this Feb-March. This 42C2 served it's purpose amazingly as a stop gap for such displays. I will retire it with full honors, served me so well.
That sucks. I was looking to upgrade to C4 (2024) once my Bestbuy burn in plan is almost finished (with credit), but now I'll probably just go with QDOLED Gen 2 or whatever the best 32" 4K miniLED is in 2024.
Sure, on occasion. But most of the top display reviewers all being wrong all at once for a whole year now is extremely unlikely. You're essentially peddling fantasy. I will never trust you over HUB or RTINGS, and the mere notion of that is laughable.
Especially given the fact I agree with their...
Again, your preference is not a fact. It works for you doesn't mean it has no blooming and blurry motion. All I am saying is OLED being better for PC gaming from my own experience and that of most major reviewers. And the market will keep that in mind.
Thought so. Anyway I'm going to use the display I found to work out better for ME overall. You do the same, no one will judge you. But if you start to judge others, don't get upset when they start citing major reviewers who all happen to disagree with your opinion.
Those aren't sales figures. So not only do most major display reviewers disagree with you, but you lied about your only crutch (sales) this whole thread?
Wait. Do you have a breakdown of the sales of the AW34 QDOLED vs PG32UQX vs Neo G7/G8?
I'm still going to go with my own analysis and that of HUB, RTINGS, etc. Sorry kram, I disagree with your opinion.
I'm not using RTINGS or HUB to form my opinion. I'm using them as citation to back up my already formed opinion after trying various miniLEDs and OLEDs for months on end. I merely agree with their own analysis, and they are far superior sources than you. IE: I can cite both sources in various...
You're confused. The display you prefer does reach higher nits. This IS A FACT. I know, we all know. But the PREFERENCE part is you wanting these high nits over something like response time or 0 blooming.
This logic should be understandable to any adult.
This is not a fact. I disagree with...
New video today for what HUB considers best HDR PC Monitors.
Much like RTINGS (and several others), this is the 4th HDR video in a row in which OLED gets the overall win from HUB. They completely stopped even mentioning the PG32UQX a few videos back. Perhaps there is more to a display than...
I never said it does. This is a straw man.
I said I prefer the lack of bloom, blur, and matte over higher nits. As do many reviewers. This isn't difficult. You prefer the higher nits over those shortcomings which I find to be extreme, and THAT'S FINE.
One thing I will tell you about the PG32UQX I owned for 3 weeks, it did have by far the most bloom out of any monitor I have ever seen lol. The trash coating didn't help either. Oh and did I mention it was kind of a blurry mess due to the lag? Oof.
So glad I didn't settle and waited for an...
I signed up here specifically to discuss that monitor. I tried the other monitors long before that (except the Tempest and two AWQDOLEDs). You should know this by their release dates, especially the ASUS in 2021.
Again I can get you two NG7, one NG8, C2, QN43B, and two QDOLED receipts. Because...
I didn't lie. I have tried over 10 displays in the last 2 years. The Asus was one of them, from Paterson NJ Microcenter. You crying will not alter this fact. I can only get you receipts for the latest ones I purchased online.
Better question is why did you lie and say you were better citation...
Why would I keep a ~$3000 monitor I didn't like. This discussion is bizarre.
Why aren't you up in arms the 9 other monitors?
Depends, I hated the blooming and contrast in some areas, but yeah the HDR brightness was still pretty nice. The coating was trash.
The OLED is still the overall...
For the PG32UQX I got it from Microcenter over a year ago. I didn't like it so I returned it. The Neo G7 was last August, I got it from NewEgg and can provide proof of that one.
I have bought and returned quite a few monitors until I settled on the OLED. At least 10. I can probably get you...
I returned all 3. I might still have pictures of the Samsung since it had a scratch, which I had to show Newegg before the RMA.
All you're doing is the counterpart cope.
OLED is overall better to me, including PC Gaming. And many (if not most) professional reviewers. You can keep crying about...
I tried the PG32UQX, Neo G7, and the Tempest. I told you this earlier.
I consider this fiction, no one cares and no one will take you seriously over RTINGS or HUB (among others) as citation. No amount of repeating this will alter this here or anywhere. This is a joke.
This isn't the truth...
I tried the PG32UQX, it was too slow and too bloomy. Didn't like the coating either. No amount of HDR Nits fixed this. I preferred OLED.
Why complain about my preference?
I literally just asked a question (and I guess we'll find out once those new TVs release), I never said any of that. I...
Won't they get a bit brighter every gen (at least some models)?
