    THANK YOU! Was looking everywhere for the Sdr brightness in smaller windows.

    When I bought an OLED monitor over a year ago, I thought it was broken, since I could see the flickering all the time and NONE of the reviews said anything about this. A year later and suddenly people talk about this. Like WTF?
  • @apocalic
    Good luck with Asus warranty...

    I am a big fan of glossy. Yes it reflects things in a bright environment(you did good job showing it) but our smartphones and TV's are like that and we are fine. When you put a glossy panel next to matte one you immediately see great difference on colors and blacks to the point that a good IPS glossy panel can look better than an OLED matte panel. So the difference can be different tech kind of difference just by choosing glossy over matte therefore i can't see the attraction in matte unless you are constantly using the screen in a reflecting environment with lights and never in the dark.
  • @noenken
    For future reviews I'd be interested in the maximum brightness in the locked mode since that is how I always want my monitor to operate.
  • @pboro1jawrattler
    Any defect they find on it even with a macro lens say goodbye to that warranty 😮
  • @xPhantomxify
    Yay nieuwe Techtesters video! Het is een interessante monitor inderdaad, maar ik vind die jurk echt mooier. Staat je super goed!
  • @pirx9798
    Now make a gorilla glass version of the PG27AQDP

    2024 and we finally get a phone stand wow. It's like Christmas all over again.
  • @mileskt9232
    unfortunate its asus and possibly exclusive since asus warranty issues going on right now being extremely anti consumer. I would have hoped for an ultrawide option of this and a different brand
  • @pvdgucht
    Do you have a video on the new T705 SSD ?
  • @clipse85
    I'm sure the review is nice and all, but personally I'm not buying anything from ANUS ever again...
  • @blurry9744
    I had big difficulties finding a good monitor, or atleast which one I should get, I got a Dell G2724D 1440p monitor, but the colors were kinda meh imo, atleast compared to my old 1080p monitor, as well as the blacks, what should I look for when choosing a monitor if I want better colors and contrast?
