This monitor is down to 650€ in Germany. Anyone with first hand experience on it? Is it bright enough?

Hey guys, so right now i am using 34” both at home and at work but want to upgrade the cheap Lg i have at home for something more fancy. So the contestants are Dell U4025QW vs any of the Samsung 49” G9s. They are so many that i am not sure what is the difference. The Lg is the 45GR75DC-B. So the Lg and the Samsung are VA while the Dell is IPS. I care for a monitor that will give me the least eye strain so i guess > 100 hz. I definitely need more than 34”. I guess the 49 is overkill but i use a lot of excels as well as chrome and pycharm app. So lots of space needed. I use a windows 11 laptop but i guess that if i move to a macbook the Dell has scaling issues from what I read. Price is not important. If you have another suggestion I would be glad to hear it. Thanks !

Hi All,

I’m looking for information regarding to the replacement of my triple 24p screen to Odyssey G9 91SD. (No need for 240hz).

I try to find information about the use of Macbook air M3 on these screens, but for some it seems working well, and for other it is not working at all of the they get blury text for example.

The devices I want to connect:

-          Windows computer with i9-11900k and 3060ti

-          Macbook air M3

I will primarily use it for daily usage (Internet browsing, consuming videos, mails, etc), for work where I need multiple screens, and some gaming.

I have concerns about:

-          Blury text on both Windows and MAC ( but I htink on windows Cleartype will correct the issue)

-          Macbook connection issues / quality

-          Burn-in issue, but I think with a good usage this will not be an issue (activation of protections, not all time on max brightness,etc...)

Can you please help me with your experiences?

Many thanks :-)

Hello everyone!

I hope someone can help. My dad is a huge PC Fan and now after years he bought himself a 49' Samsung. He was so happy, like a child on christmas. But now after using it a couple weeks he gets headaches when he's at the PC.

Right now he's pretty devasted because he thinks he can't use the monitor anymore and has to sell it.

Has anyone experienced something similar? I really want to help my dad. I'm not the biggest tech nerd.

It runs on 120hz, biggest screen solution possible, we tried dark mode. Oh and dad wears pretty strong glasses.

Thank you in advance!!!

Started with two 27s. Then to two 32s.... then a 32" and a 34"... ditched the 32" for another 34"... Lol! Now added a 39"

I've got a rather odd use case, but I'd really like an ultrawide monitor. I can't seem to find much information on this, but does anyone happen to know of a ultrawide monitor that's really lightweight and has a high refresh rate? I don't need anything more than 1080p and 29" or even less should work fine. It can be curved but I don't need curved either.

Black screen, tried everything, it's kaput.

So what should I replace it with? I I can't go backwards in size, colour capability or 120hz refresh.

Please make your recommendations!

I work in supply chain/procurement field. Below is what I learnt recently about OLED and MiniLed from a supply chain perspective.

Recently I met a friend doing procurement (@Samsung) during Shanghai transit and he explained why Mini LED seems/might to be disappearing.. except for China itself.

Precursor: Most of the monitor panels you see comes from no more than 10 makers/factories around the world. Many sub-brands like Asus, MSI, etc are OEM/white labels. He explained the most important thing for any brand is to ask is who made the panel. He commented Samsung is most competitive, LG is most stringent AQL rate on all components and China makers is most diverse.

1. MiniLed is "relatively" more expensive than OLED.. falling OLED prices will drag down Mini LED demand.

2. OLED prices are collapsing not due to improvement in technology, material or quality, but due to massive overcapacity in the industry and slowing market replacement cycle. Plenty of software/firmware fixes are bells and whistles, not a fundamental fix with hit and misses.

3. Gallium Nitride has become practically impossible to procure freely in the market.. existing inventory/supply is being diverted to more critical and/or profitable products.

4. There is and will always be good demand for high end MiniLed monitors.

As it is now with the trade war:

-Top non-chinese makers as will aggressively shift into OLED R&D and marketing.

-Whereas Chinese makers like Hisense, TCL are quickly upgrading their production and supply lines for more Mini LED skus.

Will you stick to MiniLED? Having used G9 NEO 49 and 57 for the past 5 years.. I struggle to use any non miniled monitors..

What's up y'all. Anybody have experience using Whoosh on the OLED g8? I desperately need to clean this thing because I live in a very dusty area, but the distilled water and microfiber didn't cut it last time. I've got the ultrawide G8 with the matte finish screen.

Got the 5080. Still can’t get 240hz at 7680x2160. I couldn’t get it with the 7900xtx either. Have a DP2.1 cable. What am I missing?

I've just bought a pretty decent hardware upgrade, minus GPU. I'm going to have the 9800X3D, a 3090, and 64gb of RAM. Hopefully when a few months have passed I'll upgrade to a 4090 or 5090. In the mean time I'd like to upgrade from 2x 27 inch 1440p monitors to a 32 or 34 inch 1440p ultrawide, ideally with one of my previous monitors mounted above it. So, to cut to the chase, are their any mounting solutions you recommend for that sort of vertical orientation, and for the ultrawide MSI, Alienware, Samsung, ASUS? I'd like to keep the cost of the monitor to $750ish max, but if I'm on the cusp of true greatness I can spend a bit more. Locally there's a person selling a AW3423DW on facebook marketplace and asking $750. Not sure if that's reasonable for used or if they're flexible. So, really any advice is appreciated.

Can anyone recommend me a decent dual setup configuration with an ultra wise + plus standard 4k monitor.

Currently have the LG 34GP63A-B Ultrawide Monitor but now I am seeking a 4k monitor. I’m either going to fully replace the Ultrawide or combine it and would love to see potential setups. The purpose of the 4k monitor is gaming, same with the ultrawide

Amazon has this monitor at $849. I feel like this is almost too good to pass up pricing for this one. I had thought hard about the OLED version (39GS95QE), but the lower res scared me off. My ONLY hold up on this monitor is the fact it isn't OLED. Its either this or hold out for the new 5K2K monitors when they aren't more expensive than a 5090... Anyone have the 38WN95C-W that does a fair amount of gaming on it? It would be like 80%, and 20% content consumption. I have a 32in 1440p 165hz LG that is 8 years old or so now. Solid, but ready to upgrade.

Checked the rules and I dont think this would be breaking the referral link or selling. If it is then I apologize O powerful reddit mod. Just giving a heads up if you're close to Clarksville, IN. Best Buy is gonna have a 39GS95QE-B.AUS open box in perfect condition. I didn't check before boxing it back up, but I'd say maybe 40-50 hours on it. The only reason I returned it was that it was just too big for my space. I just got back in the car and figured I would give a heads up in case anyone was on the lookout.

What’s your favorite pick?

I've had this monitor for over a year now no issues. I was about to have a stroke after updating the nvidia drivers because whenever I would start watching a video the screen would go black and it would say, "the current input tiing is not supported by the monitor display. Please change your input timing to 3440 x 1440 60hz or any other monitor listed timing as per monitor specification."

I would try the default setting on monitor and it would still do it. Rolled back the drivers to Dec 5 version and everything is fine again.

Hi everyone, looking for advice on both of these monitors.

Im looking to upgrade my dual set up of two 27inch Samsung monitors to either the 49" or 57"?

Main purpose will be for working/coding but in the future I will be building a PC to utilise these monitors better.

Can you help provide some useful information on these monitors, which one you have and why did you pick this vs the other?

Appreciate the help in advance.

Laptop 1 = Macbook M2 Pro
Laptop 2 = Macbook M4 Max Pro

I was just browsing the G9 NEO to see if there was any discounts and saw its down to £1499 on Samsungs official website, is this a good deal? To those who have it, how much did you pay? Really close to pulling the trigger on this

I finally made the jump… got a crazy deal that I couldn’t pass up.

I finally setup the KVM on my U4025QW. Starting on my Mac, I installed Dell Display & Peripheral Manager (DDPM) and got everything setup. Worked smoothly. Hit the button in DDPM to switch to my PC and it worked. Now, on the PC side I go to install DDPM and apparently DDPM is not on Windows. So I install Dell Display Manager and Dell Peripheral Manager seperately, but neither has options for KVM settings. So how do I manage a Dell KVM from Windows? I know I can use the onboard monitor settings, but I'd like to be able to program the same hotkey on both OS' so I can quickly switch between them. Is there a third party software solution for this? Any idea why Dell hasn't released a software solution for the most popular OS for this nearly $2,000 monitor?

How exciting! I was waiting for this to be release again forever since the original version didn't quite work well on modern machines

I’m looking for:

• glossy
• QD-OLED
• 175 or 240hz
• 0.03ms
• some oled care technology, monitor has to repair himself without me dancing around
• no annoying popups such as samsung’s cringe in the middle of your screen
• no extra curve

I have found some of the examples

1. Msi mpg 341cqpx
2. Acer predator x34
3. Samsung odyssey g8
4. Gigabyte mo34wqc2
5. Asus rog pg34wcdm which has WOLED and it’s matt which I do not prefer

1. What would you recommend from that list of maybe something not listed there?
2. What’s the difference between Msi one and gigabyte one? Isn’t there the same matrix, while gigabyte is 15% cheaper?

Obvious it is bigger so that is not what I'm asking.

I'm just wondering if you normally play a game on a 27in monitor and you upgrade to a 34in monitor does it feel bigger if your focused on something in the center of the screen.

If I kick back on my chair I move the monitor closer, I feel like I would have to do that as well with the 34in monitor.

Probably an idiotic post but worst case I can let you guys praise ultra wide.

So I'm seeing quite a few budget priced OLED 34" Ultrawide's, but mystified why there are so few Mini LED models. I've seen the AOC Agon Pro AG346UCD OLED for £548, the Gigabyte MO34WQC OLED for £650 and Philips Envia 34M2C8600 for £675. Amazingly priced from a few years ago they were over a thousand. I'm wary of OLED burn in, as I like to keep my monitors for a good decade. I'd be much more encouraged to buy a Mini LED UW, but they're exclusively VA, and not IPS, and I really want that colour accuracy and wider viewing angles over VA. I'm also looking for a flat screen and not curved because I'm using this for productivity, not gaming but this seems to be impossible to find, UW being made mostly curved.

It was pretty fun too. If you go into it with the same expectations of a CW DC show, you may be surprised.
