My entire setup is in a state of disarray currently due to me comparing several monitors side by side. But I always consider PPI rather than screen size so in regards to both the QN900 and the Neo G9 57" that would be the same as a 4K 32". Any additional screen area I treat as a multi monitor...

As I recall it, Multi View (Samsungs PIP/PBP) did not work with PC in game mode (needed for 4:4;4) which kind of made it useless for anything but video/TV.

Power Toys Fancy Zones is what I use but you also have Display Fusion.

It should perhaps be said that I don't really consider any of these screens to have 100% usable screen area, at least for things like text, photo editing etc. Unless you have super human vision and can push the monitors far enough away without enabling scaling, the viewing angles are just to...

Was thinking about doing a summary of that but has not gotten around to it yet. But in short, twice the screen real estate, glossy with no grain, flat, much better viewing angles (even when sitting in the sweetspot of the Neo G9). Surprisingly enough, I found the local dimming and brightness to...

Not sure why you would want 8K on such a small monitor but I completely agree about that no sane person should invest in a 65" 8K TV as a PC monitor :D That said, all I do now is to press the power button on the remote once a day (or twice if I don't want to wait for it to shut down on itself...

And here I just boxed up the Neo G9 57" (almost an 8K monitor) in favor of the QN900C (an 8K TV) as I found the latter to be better in most use cases as a PC monitor, at least for me. Of course, neither of them passes the "I am broke" requirement...at least not before you buy any of them :)

Having done the same a few times in the past, it is important that the difference might actually be as much the changes rather than it being 120 hz/144 hz. Ie going the other way might actually also make things worse to begin with, timing etc just get different. Same thing with going from like a...

If you ask for recommendations, you should probably list your requirements rather than what monitors you have been looking at.

If rapid response times, most likely for FPS gaming I guess, is the most important, OLED is probably what you want, or maybe a TN panel. That was not your question though.

There must have been some updates to the QN900C/One Connect Box since the first QN900C I tried because I am yet to experience any kind of dropout even at 144 hz while the previous one had them all the time. And this is with the long cable as well. As mentioned before, I noticed that packaging...

There are additional "weirdness" with dithering etc that comes into play. It is doable but as a monitor nut, it would have to be better than that in order not for me to start looking into alternatives (lika a 4K side monitor). The Multi view definitely seems to be targeted at "video content"...

Was able to get the Multi View working but it seems to require disabling Game Mode which also seem to break 4:4:4 which basically makes it pointless for anything text related (at least compared to an actual monitor).

Not a review but at least an end user of the QN900D https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=sq8JyE5Y5Mc (There are few more short videos)

QN900C has support for 4 multi view "areas" up from only 2 on the QN900B. But there seems to be some incompatability only giving me "not supported" but will try more when I have time for it.

Don't really mind if people prefer curved, and if I were to build a racing sim or something like that where immersion was the key, I might prefer that as well. But never for productivity. And neither does Samsung it seems, based on the fact that when the viewing angles are not as poor, the need...

I am really against the dual monitor approach, mainly as I feel like I am on a constant holy quest to find the ideal monitor that can do it all. But having a PG32UCDM as well now, I am considering the idea of just keeping it to the side and just lift it up on the desk (or something like that) in...

Never really seen 60 hz for productivity as a problem, probably because I am used to things way worse then high PPI 60 hz from my glory days. Would imagine that there are smothing options in the TV if needed/wanted. That is however one reason I might consider a QN900D, but mainly that if it...

Must say that the quality of text and other "desktop stuff" is really remarkable good on the QN900C (and the B/D). That glossy coating and the wide viewing angle really does help a lot with removing the grain and also combating the poor viewing angles of the Neo G9 without it having to be...

Which is kind of ironic as that is the only real usage I can see for 8K at the moment. But I guess that the number of people willing to pay for an 8K 65" to use at the desk is limited :)

Agreed, like most of the so called reviews so far to be honest.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wWnJXcfQik0 Mostly fast forwarded / jumped but it seems like an OLED love fest

Until proven wrong, I expect the QN900D to be better than the QN900C but more of an evolution than a revolution. The marketing is kind of the same as it has been every year with mostly vague claims and new invented expressions and Samsung pseudo science. Like this 240 hz stuff. Things probably...

Seems like few have yet to compare it with the QN900C from what I have seen, while it is naturally more of an upgraded from the QN900A as even the QN900B was that. My intended usage is also only as a PC monitor, perhaps flanked by an 240 hz OLED even though my actual gaming is much less than the...

As the QN900C had its price lowered substantially (with some additional edu discounts etc) and the QN900D as expected did not turn out to be that revolution it was initially touted to be by some "reviews", I now find myself again with a 65" QN900C on my desk. Will be interesting to see how long...

Well, if you buy four of them.... :)

It should be noted that a 240 hz display set to 240 hz would always be 240 hz regardless of the FPS. Might be marginal gains though.

Or by using the software solution (which might only bring back the original service menu)?

I would imagine that you mean MiniLED rather than MicroLED :)

I believe this is a new(er) video about the same Asus monitor https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aYO5KcJ9HNg

Have been comparing my new PG32UCDM to my ungimped LG OLED C2 for 2 days now and despite the obvious differences the PQ is actually very similar. Even side by side in clone mode, I am struggling to find any real differences besides the raised blacks on the QD OLED in bright rooms (which is...

The problem of raised blacks with QDOLEDs in bright(er) rooms is a well established fact. But does it only affect just black levels or is it that it is most visible with regards to black levels but actually affects all content being displayed, ie contrast in general, colors etc? Have not had a...

Not sure if it is the camera or YT but that gaming footage look quite "flat" to me with regards to colors and contrast, just like MiniLED tend to look compared with OLED. That of course is perhaps not so strange, but we are still talking about "prime MiniLED" here. So I guess the real news here...

That is supposed to not be the case with the software based approach, at least according to what I have read.

Anyone? Already returned my C3 as I could not find a way to disable ASBL on it like on my C2, so can't test this myself anymore.

AI was basically the main thing Samsung pushed for with the QN900C though.

There is something to be said about the monitor market when that is the criteria to go by. This monitor kind feels like the LCD version of the LG OLED 42", not really best at anything but still a really good compromise. Edit: My bad, I thought I was in the Neo G9 57" thread. Would have been...

This is my thougths as well as mentioned above, and the reason why I think that as a PC monitor, the difference to the QN900C might not be all that big unless the actual panel is changed or the OCB had real updates to support 240 hz if that is not fake. For various reasons, I guess quite few...
