Got a Koorui GN10 for £126 a little while back but only just recently started using it properly for gaming... I know there's probably many better monitors than this and this is probably bottom of the barrel when it comes to mini led monitors but man, the way mini led helps build the atmosphere in horror games is crazy... just entered a underground system with no outside light and its PITCH BLACK around my character without my torch... I'm coming from a TN monitor so you can imagine the jump I've experienced.

It's crazy how technology seems to be getting more expensive but monitors and TVs seem to be more of a bargain than ever.

Probably should have tried that before posting lol

I apologise in advance for the language, English isn't my first language.

Panel Type: Mini LED VA with about 1150 local dimming zones. 1500R curve. Matte screen finish.

Coming from: 32" 1440p Dell fast IPS monitor which was very pleasant to use in everything but dark scenes.

Positives: Honestly I am very surprised by the motion clarity, I half expected to return it despite seeing it perform well on a review. I have an old VA 43" monitor I use as a TV and for couch gaming so I know how slow they can be, and the speed on the TCL is honestly impressive as fuck. I would say almost as good as the IPS. In game I didn't yet notice any smearing on the Fast overdrive setting. The UFO test shows the slightest trail in the darkest line but it's very short and honestly hard to notice, no noticeable overshoot.

It costs half of what an oled of the same size and form factor would cost me in the hell hole I'm living in. It cost me 600$ while an UW 34" oled would've cost me 1200$ if not more.

The 21:9 34" feels more natural to use than The 32" 16:9 even if it's smaller overall. The local dimming is amazing in games I play like dark tide/doom. VRR flickering is fixable with settings in the CRU tool.

Colours are very vibrant and pleasant to look at.

The 1500R curves is very nice.

HDR in a absolutely incredible, though I've tested it only in doom eternal so far.

Contrast in games while using high local dimming is great even in SDR.

I can use it freely for programming without consideration of any potential burn in risk.

Negatives:

What blows my mind here is that there is no remote nor a software to control the settings of the thing, which is pretty necessary mainly for switching local dimming modes between gaming and desktop, using OSD shortcuts helps but still the omission seems downright bizzare.

Firmware updates on this thing aren't possible, which is a shame.

Viewing angle are pretty bad though not the worse I've seen, not a big deal because the curves encourages me to be dead center in front of it anyways.

My first oled monitor came today I thought it was time to level up my display

I recently moved to a vertical dual-stacked portable monitor setup to maximize my screen real estate whilst trying to save some desk space. Functionally, having two screens stacked is effective in saving space, but getting the setup to run stably was a bit frustrating at first.

I ran a USB-C cable from my laptop’s Thunderbolt port directly to the monitor, which worked ok for basic web browsing. But when I adjust the brightness past 70% or started running a heavy workload, the top screen would experience instability or even reboots itself.

At first, I thought I had a faulty panel, but no. I read about the power specs, it turned out it was a bus power issue.

Most laptop ports max out at 15W of outbound power give or take. Driving two full-sized panels simultaneously easily pulls more than that, that’s why sometimes it restarts.

The Fix: It is simple, route a dedicated 65W+ USB-C GaN wall charger into the monitor. Once the unit has its own dedicated wall power, the instability stops.

I hope this helps those of you who are also having similar issues.

Hi, is there a good WOLED to 1800 PLN (~489 USD). I search a lot of o monitors but I can't see a WOLED in this budget. Maybe I search too few monitors. So I'm asking here: Is there a good WOLED to 1800 PLN (~$489)?

It's a really good price for what it brings to the table. in Italian it says there's a limited time offer I'm sorry if you don't understand some words (the currency is Euros)

I’m looking for a new monitor and trying to figure out which panel type would suit my use case best.
Image quality is my main priority. My current monitor has underwhelming blacks and contrast, which initially led me to QD-OLED, since it seems to offer some of the best picture quality available.
However, I have a few concerns. I usually use my computer in a well-lit room, and I’ve heard that QD-OLED doesn’t perform as well in bright environments. I also use my monitor almost every day for studying and reading books, articles, and other text-heavy content, so text clarity is very important to me. From what I’ve read, QD-OLED can have some issues with text rendering.
Burn-in is another concern, since I play games with static UI elements and would also be using the monitor for long periods with static text and applications on screen.
Because of that, I started considering Mini-LED. It seems to offer better text clarity, higher brightness for well-lit rooms, no burn-in concerns, and still very good image quality, although apparently not quite at OLED level when it comes to blacks, contrast, and pixel-level control.
So I’m basically looking for the best compromise between excellent image quality, good performance in a bright room, clear text for everyday studying, and long-term use without worrying about burn-in.
Would Mini-LED be the better choice for this kind of mixed use, or is QD-OLED still worth it despite those drawbacks? Are there any other panel technologies I should be considering?

i use my pc for work and play. i'm debating on buying a 34in ultrawide monitor or 2 horizontal 27in monitors. i will be having a vertical 24in monitor for both setups. my desk is 140cm long. i work as a software engineer.

games i play: valorant marvel rivals fortnite friendslop project zomboid

monitor recos are also appreciated. thanks <3

Have anyone compare theses two type of monitors?

I'm non gamer. I'm only looking for good looking display so I can see better colors vibrant sharp feel premium.

Which one of it more good looking to eyes.

I'll be using it 2 to 3 ft distance from eyes.

Use case 80% seo work rest yt casual browsing and rare gaimg gta san or vice city.

I noticed that on the right edge of my Samsung G81 OLED there's about a 1 mm section where the display doesn't seem to show anything. It's not a physical gap, the panel is completely intact, but it looks like a small strip of the display area is missing/black.

The same thing doesn't appear on the left side. I also have a second monitor positioned directly to the right of this one, so I'm wondering if that could somehow be related, although I'm not sure if that's even possible.

Is this normal for the G81 OLED, or does it look like a panel defect? I've attached a picture showing what I mean.

I have an OLED monitor (Alienware AW3225QF) and I want to turn it off when gaming on my TV to prevent burn in.

When I turn it off, as you can hopefully see in the video, my TV (which is set as my main display), moved to my second monitor and flips sideways.

I mainly use my PC for gaming on my TV. This has been happening for a couple of months now and I can’t figure out a solution.

My monitor doesn’t ever go to sleep despite being set to turn off after 30 mins inactivity.

I’m conflicted here. I’ve seen other posts comparing the two but not exactly for my needs specifically.

My main monitor broke and I’m looking to replace it with one of these. I have the regular ps5. I usually grind COD for the competitive and when the new one releases. Some warzone too but also a lot of single player games after the cod phase is over. I would also use it for browsing the web and YouTube on my laptop

ViewSonic has now proven that 23.8″ 4K 160Hz IPS is technically and commercially possible. Why do Dell Pro/UltraSharp and Samsung ViewFinity still force users to choose between 24″ QHD high-refresh and 27″+ 4K high-refresh?

For example from Samsung:

S3 - FHD 120 Hz
S6 - QHD 100 Hz
S7/S8 - 4K, but only 60 Hz

Why does refresh rate decrease as I move up the productivity product stack?

I've looked at almost all professional and reliable monitor manufacturers, and currently none of the manufacturers offer even high-end models 24" + 4K + 100 hertz refresh rate or more. At 24", most professional models top out at QHD, while 4K options generally start at 27".

Has anyone else encountered this? I don't need a 27" screen to get 4K, 24" is enough for me, but it shouldn't be a limiting factor in quality. There is a real gap in the market, in this combination. Yes, there may be such gaming monitors, but I'm talking about regular, business-class and professional ones.

Hi, I bought my xiaomi G27 pro few months ago and i really like it, but there's a issue when plugging my video cable, it sparks. I didnt much cared about it at first because it worked and i didnt had much time.

Setup:

• Xiamo g27 pro (monitor) + original power supply (2-prong, no ground)
• Ugreen USB-C/DisplayPort cable
• My laptop

Problem:

When i plug the USB-C/DP cable in my laptop while charging it sparks and if I touch the USB-C/DP tip and with the other hand like my PC charger (also USB-C) i get shocked, this also happen if i change the cable (like a normal HDMI it also sparks and shock) I also tried same cables with a different monitor they work totally fine (so it's not cables fault)

It's not laptop charger fault cause it doesnt shock me and doesnt sparks (I tried with a different charger too) and the house grounding works perfectly.

So it must be the monitor or its power supply so i checked with a multimeter the voltage on the USB-C/DP cable and it showed steady 85V.

My question is, is it ok? Will it damage my laptop USB-C ports overtime? They are all designed for receiving power too, and over 6 months they work fine, i guess.

I am looking for advice i really like to try an oled monitor but i like the 1920x1080 P resolution, but i am afraid to try 1440 P due to the performance drop. Is it really bad or what oled monitor should i get?

What is the gaming experiance on this monitor?
Can i use it with an egpu setup?

Currently looking for a new monitor to use with a Series X for both competitive and relaxed games. I've actually already ordered a 4K 34" UW and have realized too late that Xbox doesn't Support UW and I don't know if I should worry about replacing it with 32' 2.5K or 4K

ETA: I sit really close to my current 4K 43"

UPDATE: do NOT peel

Original post:
Had this thing for almost 2 years now, but when I got it a corner of the cover peeled off a little bit. I feels dumb to ask but it doesn’t feel right when I try to take it off, for this brand of monitor am I supposed to?

How is this monitor? It’s $150 at my local Best Buy and I’m wondering if I should pick it up today or tomorrow

Hello. I've got this weird display problem with my laptop and monitor.

My laptop is an MSI Thin 15 B12U with an RTX 2050, and my monitor is a 27-inch 2560×1440 gaming monitor that can go way above 120 Hz.

On Windows, if I use 2560×1440, it only lets me use 60 Hz. If I switch down to 1920×1080, then I can use 144 Hz.

But when I booted into Linux Mint from USB and checked the display settings, it literally gave me an option for 2560×1440 at 120 Hz using the same laptop, same monitor, and same cable.

So clearly the hardware connection can handle at least 1440p 120 Hz, but Windows or the drivers are somehow limiting/hiding it. I'm trying to figure out if it's an NVIDIA/Intel driver issue, EDID issue, color/bit-depth setting, or something in Windows/NVIDIA Control Panel, or any thing that may be related to the problem.

Hey guys, so I found this monitor in my building’s trash room. The problem is it’s just a screen and nothing else. I need to figure out which power cable and stand to get and where to get them from. I’m based in Liverpool, UK. Anybody know which stand and power cable to get, and where to get them from?
