Just got mine the other day as I wanted an HDR monitor that I could also use for work (basically a non-oled). I had low expectations for it given the price but it really blew me away when I started gaming in HDR. I can’t wait for the technology to mature even more. Only real draw back is the poor viewing angles.

@@ZeusFuentes they are a lot better than TN panels. I had to push mine back towards the wall a bit to avoid some gamma shift on the bottom of the screen.

So overall I would say it’s pretty manageable, just annoying if you want to view off axis for whatever reason.

It is almost if as they've tested a different product. I'm wondering what is happening here. Would be neat if you'd start to include panel ID from the engineering menu so we could be awared of regional differences or midlife updates.

I’ve found that RTINGS is very biased in terms of reviews for monitors. It seems like whenever there is a monitor that people really like, they review it and say the opposite or say it’s just decent. They do it with TV’s and even complained about Sony Bravia TV’s which are known as some of the best on the market. The only thing I trust them with is color accuracy/calibration and viewing angles. Even with color accuracy they like panels that look too dull, especially for gaming. They focus so much on “realistic color accuracy” that when you calibrate your monitor you’re not using the full capabilities of it. I like my gaming monitors to pop with the colors and not be overly dim or bright. So it’s best to look at RTINGS first and then watch videos of people actually using the monitor. Then make judgement on what the majority opinion is

Months later and there still isn't any real competition. BenQ thinks we will pay $1200 for their 32" offering with mediocre HDR tuning? I guess the industry is too focused on OLEDs now. Unfortunately, if you have to use the same monitor for work and play there are not many options around. Maybe MUB will review the INNOCN 32m2v, but I have my suspicions that it has some problems as well. At least the price is better (a lot better! right now it's ~530 US on amazon).

I am super happy with it but I came from 75 hz ips basic work style monitor. I personally dislike ips glow and the limited contrast ratio on ips, that's what made me take a chance on this VA as well as the HDR10. For the money and at this time I think its a great value.

My issue with VA and TN, is that if looked staright at the center of the monitor, then only center is not off axis, bottom is always a bit brighter/washed out, while top is darker. Ideally such monitors need a top to bottom curve to compensate for that, so the monitor becomes spherically curved, or viewed from a longer distance, which isn't great for desktop use.

Or another solution is to use some gradient colour filter to make top to bottom go more vibrant, with adjustment for viewing distance

@ugnemikelenaite7045 Ya hard to say there. It is beautiful but I don't know if I would suggest losing even a few ms in end to end latency for CS2 pros. I will say I am 90% playing CS2 right now and love it for that. Watch hardware unboxed's review and compare the response time to a 240hz review and see if you think it's worth it.

In sRGB mode it's probably faster, if you want to play online games just use that mode I guess, so there won't be any algorithm for dimming in use.

Saw this video this morning and then saw RTINGS and TFT Central reviews on this monitor. I ended up buying it from Newegg today for $285 US. I currently have a Gigabyte M28U and a MSI g274qpf (non-qd version). Despite its drawbacks, I much prefer VA over IPS for its black levels, contrast and no IPS glow. I like my two IPS monitors, they are both good but i'm going back to VA and hopefully this is the one.

@noir-13 Yeah, general media consumption is so nice. I'm honestly tired of the washed out low contrast IPS monitors. It's really nice to see the response times on these VA monitors at great places compared to before. I'm looking forward to HDR with this.

Such an underrated view! My cat just destroyed my monitor and been shopping just to be utterly annoyed at the lack of reviews/poor reviews on va panels in favor of fps and competitive games. Like that's not all games are like. Yes I play tarkov but also lots of cyberpunk and games as such where the contrast matter the most. Was hoping to find a 32inch model of this but looks like I'll have to downgrade to 27 inch monitor for the time being

Got this coming tomorrow for my brother. Always wanted to introduce him to HDR but as we are moving and doing his entire room + set up we didn't really want to spend 700+ on a HDR monitor right now lol. Looks damn promising for him overall and at a great price. I am happy people can start getting good HDR at more affordable prices, last year when I got my AW3423DW there was almost nothing on the market to get a good HDR experience now we have a ton of monitors offering it at all price ranges it seems. Cannot wait for more companies to get into this space.

What does he think about the monitor and how are the blacks.
@lilpain19976 ай бұрын
@@indian-tech-support got to say I am impressed with it and he is loving it. It obviously does not compete with OLED ( Tbh no mini LED I have tested does, even ones with 1100+ zones ), but it also costs a lot less. If you are in the market for a real HDR experience on a fair budget you will love this thing. I will say you may need to calibrate the display though, mine had a red tint to it and needed calibrating ( which by eye is borderline impossible but you can get it better than before ) All in all the monitor is impressive and keeps on impressing me daily ( I spend a lot of time chilling with him so I see the thing daily ) and the blacks are far better than anything on your standard IPS or VA, even when something bright is next to it. If you sit straight on as well the blooming is minimal enough that its not that distracting at all. HDR is great although I always miss OLED as you get perfect contrast and highlights are blistering, while here they are much dimmer to keep blooming minimal ( but dont get it twisted it still elevates the entire scene compared to SDR, and day time or any large bright area looks godly here )

@aul0s8 ай бұрын
When I found this monitor recently I was tempted to return the 32 inch ASRock I just bought - not a huge extra expense unlike an OLED, but the 27 inch format would seem to be a real difference. But considering in other terms for years and years I had a 30 inch 16:10 display as a main monitor so it would honestly not be a lot narrower, and this 32 inch (really 31.5) is only a bit taller. I still have a 27 inch display as a secondary screen and it honestly is a totally fine size in reality, in fact for some content and experiences I almost wonder if the larger display is too big- focusing on one area of the screen leaves a lot of content on the periphery, like with subtitled media and the text of JRPGs/VNs.

@fmarx18 ай бұрын
I owned this for about 2 weeks, it was 369 Euros at Proshop in December. Good HDR, but the blooming was an issue for me. The uniformity was the worst I've seen in a monitor though, once you see the DSE it cannot be unseen. Also, there is a bug where the monitor sometimes just doesn't wake up from sleep, and because the firmware cannot be upgraded, I sent it back. Either way, it's good to see MiniLED monitors getting cheaper!

@Abyssdiver7 ай бұрын
My advice for MSI is to stay away from their monitors. The last monitor I had was the MSI Optix MAG274QRF-QD and I went through 5 monitors all rejected due to MANY stuck/dead pixels. So the final monitor I got from them had 1 stuck pixel near the center of the screen so I kept it as it was better than all the rest. There are hundreds of complaints about their monitors and their quality issues regarding dead pixels. Just 3 days ago I threw the monitor into the dumpster because the backlight started to fail and left half my screen black. There are hundreds of complaints about their backlighting failing as well right at the end of warranty like within a month or two almost seeming like it was planned on their part. I wish I knew all these issues prior to my decision however I can let others know so I hope this helps you make a wise choice in your next monitor purchase. I would get anything other than MSI they are trash!
