The internal power brick is underrated. Pretty much all the other models have a giant brick to cable manage. It doesn’t have KVM or 90s USB-C but it has good enough usb for phone charging and all the essential connections. The curve is also not really for immersion like an ultra wide it’s for warping reflections from the immediate field of view which is a disadvantage of glossy panels. It looks pretty much flat in use.

Thank you for the review, very informative. Got the Asus pg32ucdm few weeks ago, almost perfect as monitors go for me. Quite expensive but now I have the picture quality I have been waiting for oh so many years. And quality will only get better and more affordable as years go by. It's so good to be a PC enthusiast in 2024.

Thanks for this friendly review. 🙂 I got my AW3225QF three days ago and I love it. The slight curve, the glossy QD-OLED Panel and the eARC feature, wich works perfect with my ELAC Debut ConneX DCB41. The availability and price make it a no brainer over the 32" ASUS and MSI OLEDs. It's a shame to charge these insane prices in Europe. The only concern is the burn-in topic. We will see if this is an issue.

Burn-in shouldn't be an issue if you don't let the same images stay on the same areas of the screen for long durations (like several hours a day and every day). I've had my Alienware OLED monitor for a year and a half now and I use it extensively but I haven't got any burn-in yet (none that I can see at least). On the other hand my headphones' wireless receiver which has an OLED screen has very noticeable burn-in because it's almost always displaying the same image on the same area.

@@andreaswoehler26 With 2-3 days per week I probably wouldn't worry too much. You really have to fuck up pretty badly to get burn-in. I had it happen to me once on a TV (I think an LG C8), and it was because I left the TV sitting on my receiver's home screen constantly for months (which had this picture of a piano that was the worst thing possible for causing burn-in). And I also think OLEDs back then had inferior burn-in protection compared with current ones. My current LG C1 has been fine and experienced 0 burn-in since I got it a couple years ago. If you're concerned, you can also do something like turn down brightness when doing work.

Thank you for this test that I was impatiently waiting for ! I bought this monitor 1 month ago, I am generally happy with it, except for the gsync support which is unusable because of the flickering it causes. I have to disable Gsync and enable vertical sync in games to no longer have this problem. Despite the latest update, there are also some problems with HDR under Windows. It's an excellentmonitor , but it still has some flaws. Dell still needs to fix some issues to make it truly great.

I am using one of these right now. My Favourite mode is Custom Colour HDR with saturation turned to 65 (except for green on 50), and contrast 100. Full screen brightness, 1 and 10% window brightness differ between HDR modes. I think the HDR 1000 is great for highlights but does lacks the 'perceived' full screen brightness of the other HDR modes, especially when gaming, and is objectively dimmer in the 10% window. Custom Colour HDR is the best HDR 10 mode because of the ability to increase colour saturation.

I am so interested in your tests of monitors. Thank you for posting this excellent review of the Alienware product. I think the quality of your presentation is outstanding and so, too, is the videography. I often wish I could have a tour of your testing facility and the chance to meet you and your team. I will watch for your discussion of competing monitors such as the MSI product. Since I am a software developer -- on Tier 1 systems, you see, where text is quite common -- I often wonder if a really high end monitor would make a difference to my performance. I'm on the older side and usually watching monitor displays of some kind for 8 to 10 hours per day, sometimes quite a lot longer. Thank you for a very welcome product review and evaluation.

I have a 7800x3d & a 4080 & I LOVE gaming on this beast. ZERO issues. Also, I don't think mine has a fan because I've NEVER heard it. I turn down the brightness because this monitor is bright.

@MarcAureIe
@MarcAureIe 2 ай бұрын
​@@nese1 I think it's a small / medium improvement in every aspect of the monitor, as the m32u is already a good monitor. When I first turned my aw3225qf next to the M32U I wasn't as amazed as the many reviewers said I would be. It's more like "oh I didn't noticed the M32U was bad at this" -> Deep blacks : yes the oled has deeper blacks, I didn't noticed how high the m32u's blacks were and how much blooming it had. -> Motion clarity, same thing. The AW is awesome, better than the m32u but it's not night and day. -> Refresh rate : the gap from 144 and 240hz is noticeable, and more comfortable but it's not as big as 60->144hz. And there are only few games where you'll reach 240 anyway. -> Build quality : the m32u is already well built imo, the AW is slightly better. -> Color Accuracy is great out of the box. My m32u was calibrated and almost as good. -> The one big improvement is HDR, it looks fantastic, not even comparable. Now for the curve, I was a bit sceptical, I thought it doesnt make sense on a 16:9 monitor but I was wrong. It's immersive, it looks great, I love it. I even wish my M32U was curved the same way to avoid blooming on the edges (something I didn't notice untill I bought an Oled).

After using it for a week I can concurr that this monitor is a beast so far. It is beautiful and I have had no issues with glare or anything else. The only con I can think of so far is that it is a bit tricky to clean without leaving scratches. So be careful to use only water and a clean cloth. Otherwise i love it and would definitely recommend it.

@@TechTesters yes, everything looks really great on this monitor. Unfortunately, i'm sensitive to the vrr flickering so i had to turn off gsync completely but luckily there isn't too much tearing if you can keep the framerate within the refresh rate of the monitor, so not a big deal for me. An interesting point is that to me, it seem that monitor was flickering only in games that support frame gen (nvidia) like horizon forbidden west and cyberpunk. I've tried Assassin's Creed Valhalla and it works fine with gsync enabled. Maybe it's something related to HAGS in windows, cause i've noticed that turning it off seems to completely removed vrr flickering

If you turn off Display Scaling and turn on GPU scaling 1440p resolution actually doesn’t look bad. Also, I mostly use the True Black 400 mode, plenty bright enough for me as I work during the day and game at night. If you have windows you will have to black them out as the glossy display shows hella reflection. Anything is better than a disgusting matte coating

@@yarip.4293 What makes you feel hesitant about the curve? From my experience, curved monitors can have a slight learning curve (pun intended), but they offer great immersion for gaming and consuming content. I’ve heard that for certain professional work, like graphic design or video editing, the curve might introduce some distortions, especially when dealing with straight lines or grids. However, for gaming and media consumption, curved monitors excel at drawing you into the action. I've been using curved monitors since 2019, and I've never looked back the immersion, especially in racing or first-person games, is next level. If you're considering switching from flat to curved, it's a change you'll likely adapt to quickly, and it enhances the experience in most cases. I hope this helps!

I've got this one for around 15 days: I'm glad I didn't wait (MSI / ASUS / Gigabyte models, besides the fact they are much more expensive, they are not available) But, after 2 weeks use, I wish the monitor was bigger (eg: 38") - why ? because, I need to use 125% scale in Windows to be useable... and with a 38 inch monitor, I could use 100%) And finally, I received it with the firmware M2B102, already updated twice (M2B104, then M2B105); and HDR in Windows 11 is a bit cumbersome (I have to disable/enable each time I wake it up, and I have to use tools like HDRFix when playing games like Ghost of Tsushima; and if I disable Dolby Vision, this monitor is barely useable using Windows desktop + HDR enabled (because brightness is dropped; not the case with Dolby Vision enabled)

I highly advice against this monitor at this point in time. Not for performance reasons but it has a critical flaw on how it's packed, leading to (partially not so subtile) scratches. This isn't affecting only a small number of units but a general flaw of the packaging process. Only the degree at which individual units are affected differs. At that price point I wouldn't buy it until Dell has changed this.

Great review, as always. I have a 48" C2 (LG), and I have to say that I LOVE it and I doubt that I could ever go back to a smaller screen. I'm actually thinking of going 65" G4 to use as my daily monitor. But pairing it with an RTX 4090 may be a bit of a waste as these TV's only go upto 120hz. The Samsung goes upto 144hz, but Samsung just doesn't have the build quality as LG (this TV has fallen off my desk TWICE ---- a good 30+ inches of height ---- , and not a "noticeable" scratch on it. That made me a true believer in LG build quality). Could the same be said of Alienware? "

I definitely need a replacement. though i'm more for larger screens 43+ non ultra wide (currently Samsung G9 ultrawide.. and most games dont' work well with it (menu's go offscreen etc etc). Though OLED is intresting, the fact that spending so much money and having a "limited" life (burnin) puts me off.

hey, thanks for the video! do you think you'll try the LG 38WR85QC-W? i'm looking for a work / gaming monitor but i'm not really comfortable getting an OLED and i saw you were using an LG ultrawide a few years ago for a similar use case to mine.

No plans for testing that monitor, but I guess it's the successor of my own old 38" LG panel wise. I'm on a 49" OLED currently and the gaming upgrade over IPS is really big, I don't think I can go back to those mid-ish contrast LG IPS panels. But for editing though, I'm still undecided, 1440p vertical isn't that great. For now I'm going to use a 32" 4K OLED for a while to see if that can convince me, but currently I'm just wishing there was a 38" 1600p OLED option.

@@TechTesters thanks for replying, i feel like it's kinda an awkward time to buy a monitor that isn't 100% for gaming. i can only get one monitor and there're all these really great gaming options but i know the anxiety of me potentially ruining an OLED monitor while using it for work will completely destroy my experience of using it :/

biggest issue with oleds is, they make amazing media devices, like TVs. They do not make the best monitors, especially for productivity where your software has file structure that is static most of the time, as well as a windows task bar. Nobody wants to baby a monitor and spend that kind of money with the potential for burn in. I'd rather just settle for a Mini-led monitor and get close to the picture experience without the downside.
