I tried a Matte WOLED 4K 240Hz Monitor... (LG 32GS95UE)

As a European citizen it's crazy to me that delivery companies in the US will just drop your package in front of your door and leave with no notice whatsoever. P.S. Talking from Spain. Over here the courier will usually ring your doorbell and wait for about 30 seconds, call your phone number if unresponsive, then proceed to come back at a different time or leave the parcel at a post office. They might try to squeeze the package in your mail box or even leave it at a neighbor's house, but they will NOT drop it and leave.

I'm going to check my backyard right now to see if I have any OLED monitors being hidden back there. 😅

Honestly, the matte coating doesn't sound too bad - especially if it helps disperse reflections during the day. I don't like the idea of having my curtains shut 24/7, just to accommodate a glossy screen.

I have this monitor and I absolutely love it. I have also had glossy OLEDs , but I love this one. I prefer not to see reflections in glossy monitors as I find them distracting. I also have windows directly behind me that face south, and a wife that insists on leaving the blackout curtains open during the day. I haven't watched this video yet but I am going to assume you love it. Don't disappoint me!

Top 0.1% experience here! (for osu! and counter strike) I actually benefit a lot from the 480hz, but not in the traditional way more hz is better. As a gamer for over a decade, I think after 144hz, it starts hitting diminishing returns. OLEDs being 0.03ms also makes the latency of the 240hz and the 480hz modes to be the similar/same to me. However, the 480hz is great for me cuz of the motion clarity. Games like Valorant, Overwatch, and osu! to me have much more noticeable clarity. To me it's almost like looking at perfect crisp lines. It almost feels like black frame insertion, but without it. More hz doesn't "feel" better (even 60hz OLED can actually feel low latency because of the panel tech). But the added benefit of seeing things more "crisp" is that I feel I can click heads more snappily. It's not that 480hz is giving me skill improvements, I still have to practice at the game for that. I just feel more refined; at my max potential more easily. For example, in shooters I had so many moments of "wtf how did that miss, it looked like I hit them!" And while my skill isn't necessarily better, I actually feel like I'm clicking their heads and it's registering correctly now.

I also have that monitor for around one month now and I totally agree with the 480Hz mode. I don't notice a difference at all. However, I also never noticed the "dirt" from the matte finish. Now that you say it, yeah, I can see what you mean. But I honestly don't see it, if I am not looking for it. I also use the monitor for work (lots of text) and I also like to work with daylight, so I feel for people like me a glossy version just won't work. Furthermore I really like the minimalist design. Slim bezels, no logo, no cringe gamer republic stuff etc. It looks great in my office, lol.

Awesome video dude, considering this monitor myself. One flaw with your A / B testing, though, is your system isn't pushing 480+ FPS in either scenario, and if you've got G-Sync/VRR on, it's going to make the impact even less noticeable. Also, in CoD, I believe the Hz is 'fixed' in game options, so when you switch, you'd have to go into game settings and then manually select the newly accessible "480hz" range. Keep up the good work 👍

Did you look at blur busters and compare the modes? The most noticable advantage of 480hz is being able to track fast moving objects clearly without any persistence blur.

Very useful info. I'll be keeping it in mind whenever I get around to a non-LCD monitor. As of right now my monitor still spends a lot more time on non-gaming stuff, (internet emails etc) while I do all my gaming on full-size OLED and plasma screens, but at some point whenever OLED or some comparable tech is sufficiently resistant to burn-in, pizel fatigue, etc, I'm definitely making the switch. Love them black spaces.

Finally! I've been asking about it what seems like forever now!

I watched your video using my 32 MSI QD-OLED monitor (MPG 321URX). Essentially had the same thought process. Big fan of the channel. I find a lot of value and honesty from your videos. Keep up the good work!

My wife and I bought the MSI 321URX, and love it.

I ended up getting the AW3225QF- 32 inch 4k 240 hz QD Oled with glossy finish and love it so far. I do use along side a 42 inch C2 but definitely notice better colors on the QD-Oled but to be honest, both screens are fantastic for gaming. The Lg model is appealing but I'd never use the 1080-480hz mode and you definitely pay a premium for that, cool feature however

I personally love glossy finish on my c2, I do have a controlled lighting room. Iv tried the mat finished 27 240hz oled, didn't care for them and tried the QDOLED and it was better but still not the pure gloss like the TV. Everyone likes something different and I suspect we won't ever get a pure glossy finish on monitors, so if you like gloss go for the QDOLED.

Yes monitor reviews!

About half a year ago I snatched up a 144hz 32" 4K MiniLED that has 1000 dimming zones for around 700 bucks. ALL of the equivalent OLEDs were astronomically priced comparatively at the time. It does HDR 1000 content really well, but it definitely falls short in some ways with very small brightly light objects on a dark background. I'm DEFINTIELY going for OLED for my next monitor upgrade in a few years, and hopefully by then prices will be a lot more reasonable.

In Sweden the MSI ones are the same price as the LG. So here you are only choosing between 480 Hz or not + Matte Vs. Glossy.

When moving from 240 to 480, to get the full advantage and really notice it, peripherals like final mouse and wooting are needed.

Thank you for this video and your honesty. Been loosing sleep thinking about these small details of my glossy Monitor coming in.

Since I'm in a light room, this LG OLED was way better. Had thé Asus 240hz one (glossy qd oled) but with all the light in my room the blacks were Grey. No such things with this monitor. I love it.
