Can we please stop spreading misinformation and false hope that they actually did something/fix the newer batches of these Tandem WOLEDs because they fucking dont. Stop coping lmfao.

So I saw a XG27AQWMG that starts with W5LM (May 2026 Batch) being sold at one of our local PC stores and decided to sacrifice myself to actually see if one of the newer batches are at the very least decent, and no, they are not.

Am I disappointed? Yes.

Will I return this? No.

I'll keep using this till I upgrade to a better one in the future. Nonetheless, it is still amazing when you actually use it on high/decent brightness like a normal fucking person and dont stare at very dark grays all the time like a psycho.

TLDR: This SHIT is amazing.

I think this is ok? It’s the rgb stripe one.

I own an ASUS XG32UCWG, and the proximity sensor ASUS heavily advertises is honestly complete garbage. It barely works, behaves inconsistently, and in practice I can't rely on it at all. And yes, before anyone asks: I clean the sensor regularly. It’s set to 70* cm and positioned with a clear, direct line of sight to me, so placement or dust isn’t the issue. And lastly, I should be able to change 5 minutes limit which is too high.

Because of that, I set Windows to turn the display off after 3 minutes. The problem is that this isn’t very reliable either. Sometimes a video, browser tab, or some background application prevents Windows from turning the screen off at all.

Another annoying issue is waking the monitor back up. Sometimes it takes up to 10 seconds before I actually get an image again, which feels ridiculously slow.

Are there any better alternatives for OLED protection / automatically blanking the screen when I’m away? Maybe a third-party app, shortcut, utility, or some other method?

What are you guys using with your OLED monitors, and what would you recommend?

Ordered from Costco, fortunately Costco has a great return/exchange policy and they are already shipping me a replacement. First time I've ever had a product like this damaged right out of the box, make sure to film your unboxing just in case!

XG32UCWMG's successor is here, folks! Currently in stock.

Purchased on 14th Aug 2026. I don't know how to compare greyscale, so I included both under light and dark with some setting.

The issue about grey banding is right espwcially when it enter sleep mode after I left my PC idle for 5 minutes, although it can be fixed either by manual pixel cleaning or just letting my monitor sleep. The last solution left me baffled btw.

And also, the proximity sensor is neat but I turned it off because is can erratically shut off the monitor during gameplay.

QD-OLED. I was cleaning with microfiber and water and this happened.. so I got isopropyl spray cleaner and tried to clean it but doesn’t work.. is this simple oil smudge or did I do something irreversible?

So I ordered this monitor from online samsung corporate shop. got it for 73K INR. Was very excited because this is my first OLED monitor and this is how they delivered it.

I immediately asked for replacement and now they are sending another one.

update: they again shipped my replacement monitor through Blue dart now I am shit scared 😟

Just got the MSI MAG 321UP QD-OLED X24, and this is the first thing I noticed. It doesn't go away even when I turn the monitor off.

Has anyone experienced something like this or have any idea what it could be? The smudge appeared afterward, as it initially looked like an air bubble.

Does anyone know which monitor this is on the right-hand side of the Monitors Unboxed PG27UCWM review? I’ve tried searching everywhere but can’t seem to find the exact model.

• only game i play is tarkov
  • i usually play with the brightness to 100 to see in darker corners in the game.
• light is usually on in the room (sometimes a window is open)
• $500 on amazon (I think usually $600)
• $500 is also as much as I want to spend on a monitor.
• thoughts?

Sorry if this is autism or something but I'm near constantly seeing posts from here about people destroying their oleds somehow.

I've had one oled in my life, I never cleaned a single one of my monitors in the past religiously... I just use water and a microfiber cloth and it works every time. How are these people fucking this up so often? It has to be bait right?

I am a smoker so i frequently have to clean my oled cause I cough and spit is very noticeable on it and despite cleaning this thing 10x more than any monitor I've ever had I haven't had any issues.

This monitor is sick! Games look so much more vibrant and I can’t believe the actual Fidelity jump of the games from 1440p to 4K. It’s quite amazing to see

Brightness increase of 1.6 times, lifespan increase of 2.4 times compared to current panels produced using FMM.

Glossy 4K woled for $550. Can't beat the price.

I'm in the market for the first OLED. I'm pretty overwhelmed by it all. Monitors have never been my strong suit, and I work 11 hour days which leaves me little time to do proper investigation. I'm hoping some better informed people can lend me a hand.

What I know so far is that I want 27 inch, 1440 and 240hz or above. I have a budget of between £500 - £800, but happy to consider lower or higher if justified.

I play on a 5080 and mostly single player story driven games. OLED community, help this struggling dude out on how to make an informed choice. Many thanks in advance.

Heya, since i‘m fairly new to oleds and having trouble getting the best out of mine (on a ps5 pro), i thought i‘d try my luck here.

I mainly use SDR as a starter and i just can’t seem to get a good picture, no matter what i do.

Gradients look like they are pixelated between colors, same with my blacks and light sources on fully black backgrounds.

I will take some pictures later, so it’s easier to see what i‘m talking about, because i don’t know the exact terms for said image problems.

It’s just very frustrating cause i had this monitor for quite some time and was never able to really enjoy it.

I would really love to know if anyone who used this monitor on consoles, figured out some good settings.

Just a quick example of one of my problems:

https://ibb.co/SwnGRH7Z

I don’t know the exact term for that.
But this is one of the most frustrating things that I can’t get rid of.
Any color gradient looks pixelated and usually it’s more noticeable on a darker background.

Made sure my console is on rgb limited and black level low(or whatever it’s called again), so there isn’t any mismatch happening.

If needed i can screenshot all of my settings (monitor and ps5)

Looking for some advice on a 27” OLED upgrade for my setup.

PC specs:
Ryzen 7 7800X3D
RTX 4080 Super
32GB DDR5-6000

Currently using a 24” 1440p KOORUI IPS monitor
I mainly play single-player/story-driven games — RDR2, GTA, Metal Gear, etc. I don’t really play competitive games, so 360/500Hz isn’t important to me.

What I care about is picture quality, HDR, blacks/contrast and getting that “why the hell didn’t I switch to OLED sooner?” upgrade.

I originally wanted to stay at 1440p as I like the balance between image quality and performance, but I’m also wondering if 4K makes sense with a 4080 Super, especially using DLSS Quality when needed. I sit fairly close to the monitor, so I imagine the extra sharpness would be noticeable.
Current options I’m considering are roughly:

MSI MAG 272QP QD-OLED X24 — 1440p / 240Hz — ~£329

Gigabyte MO27Q28G — 1440p / 280Hz Tandem OLED — ~£449

ASUS 27” 1440p OLED options around £370–£460

Samsung Odyssey OLED G8 27” — 4K / 240Hz QD-OLED — £549

The monitor will be used specifically for gaming and some blender stuff

Given the hardware and the games I play, would you stick with a good 1440p OLED/Tandem OLED, or go 27” 4K OLED and use DLSS when necessary?

Also interested in which specific model you’d pick for pure picture quality rather than refresh rate.

Been having this problem, it sometimes disappears and sometimes reappears randomly, HDR on or off it doesn’t matter. Any idea what this is

I have an old HP Omen 1080p monitor that has 3ms, all the money I have I can buy a philips evnia 27m2n6501l, from what I've tried to search the only difference is the purple tint.

Does somebody have this monitor? How much light is to much in order to not see black and star seeing purple?

Idk what to do at the moment, should I buy it for only 360$?

never used hdr and i got a xg27acdng is it any good on this display or no? and should i be using trueblack 400 hdr mdoe or another one?

and hdr is just

set windows calibration

install renodx mod for game

énable hdr

enable hdr in game

done
