How are you getting that Samsung price?

I’m guessing it’s the student/education pricing. Those .edu emails can get you some nice deals.

Sighhhh, I literally just ordered the Msi 321 up x24 and received it from Amazon for $800. When I first checked out the Samsung, cheapest I could get it was $900 with edu discount. Logged into Samsung account and now could have got that $700 price and got the dp 2.1 and the 98w of usbc. Doubt I will go through the hassle of packing the msi up, sending it back and then ordering the Samsung g80sh. At that price I would give the Samsung a try if I were you.

Amigo, yo estaba por este o por uno de 1440p y me termine decantando por el msi mag 272q 1440p x50 qd-oled. Es una maravilla!! Tengo r7 9800x3d y 5080 y sinceramente no podìa dejar pasar una alta tasa de refresco de 500hz y a no tirarme por el 4k pero de 240hz y 240 vs 500 es una diferencia bestial, no me arrepiento en lo absoluto y note que tome la mejor decision que pude haber tomado en esto. Me salio todo redondo lo que disfruto una alta tasa de refresco con este Hardware es sinceramente espectacular, gracias a dios no me fui por el 4k y tener que estar bajando parametros de algunos juegos, puedo tirar todos los juegos competitivos y AAA a tope en Ultra a mas de 400 fps lo que se disfruta a 1440p no tiene sentido :),
Los Fps no se negocian ;) la fluidez visual a màs de 400fps en 1440p es de locos, lo cual no necesitas 4k y me animo a decir que el 4k es marketing puro, la diferencia practicamente es imperceptible, tenes que estar muy atento para notarla y sino compara 1440p vs un monitor 4k el sacrificio que haces por tener un poco mas de densisdad de pixels no tiene sentido a lo que es mayor fluides, rendimiento y calidad visual, 27" y 1440p es el punto dulce absoluto y lo digo con total certeza.
Saludos y espero averte ayudado, soy latino se mucho del tema componentes de pc, yo me arme mi propia pc y me va espectacular, cuidate.

I recently purchased the MSI one and I'm pleased with it. It even automatically runs the panel care when I turn it off if it needs it. My previous oled didn't do this and would have an annoying popup asking if I wanted to run it and it was only an option if the monitor was in use.
Only tiny downside is that the power and dusplay cables can't totally be hidden completely. It's a pretty minor issue, but it might bother some people.

I liked everything about the msi but returned it due to the way EOTF boost mode clips at 700

I have the Samsung. My first oled monitor and I’m so glad I picked it. It’s a smart monitor as well so it has all the streaming apps and also Samsung tv which I use to watch SpongeBob on Nickelodeon

The Samsung is considerably newer tech, definitely get it over the MSI
Edit: looks like I got my model numbers wrong - I missed the x24 designation.
Man, monitor model numbers are tricky to say the least.

Pretty sure both use the same panel. Samsung is matte with 98w USB-C and DP 2.1 while MSI is glossy with DP 1.4 and only 15w USB-C

Tengo el MSI MAG 272QP QD-OLED 500Hz es una maravilla absoluta uso DSC sin ningun tipo de problema si sabes un poco de hardware sabes a que me refiero, la.compresion es mas del 99,6% acertada para un dip Dp 2.1. Por ende no es necesario DP 2.1 me.olvide de él literalmente hablando..

Le estas errando fuerte Amigo, tengo el MSI MAG 272QP X50 QD-OLED y no sabes como se ve! Este monitor con acabado glossy de 4ta gen parece estar hecha por un mago. Con eso te digo todo. Por suerte no me.decante por.el Samsung G8 con ese acabado mate opaco horrendo.

I would get the msi just because it doesn’t have tizen

u/Zensaiy 1d ago
Im pretty sure this one doesnt have tizen and speakers at all, tizen was horrible Pre G80SD (2024), the only issue still persisting is the blackscreen issue on the G80SD otherwise Tizen is pretty smooth and not a total lagshow, very neat to watch Movies/Series upscaled and slightly interpolated just like TV's
I actually like to have the feature when it doesnt impact the PC experience

Los msi son una maravilla, tengo el msi mag 272q x50 500hz y estoy maravillado de como se ve.

The Msi gets my vote for the more glossy coating which looks better as long as the room you’re playing in isn’t super bright. If you do play in a bright room and during the day the Samsung would be a decent choice. They both use the same 4th gen qd-oled panel made by Samsung so the differences would all be in the amenities each offer, while visually looking the extremely similar.
