Not sure if this is yet another "fake" review, they don't even seem to realize that the QN900D is 240 hz (at least kind of) https://www.tomsguide.com/tvs/qled-tvs/samsung-qn900d-neo-qled-8k-tv-review yet another review claiming the panel is 120 hz natively, this time mentioning the 240 hz mode...

One of many reasons why I personally dislike curved monitors,the kind of seem to be like a space shuttle with regards to design, build and performance in the long run. Ironically Samsung didn't seem to feel their UW OLEDs needed the same curve even though they as panels seem to be much better...

To me it seems obvious that these large curved monitors have a "challenging design" as it seems like the number of reports about broken units is way higher than normal, especially considering that the price would probably exclude many potential buyers. The Neo G9 57" AFAIK is also two panels...

From the ones I tried I saw no indication of there being any hardware changes so it would be mostly people that cant see it claiming it does not exist. Like people claiming that their QDOLEDs dont have raised blacks in a bright room.

Well, in short, nothing has really changed. Having benchmarked it against both the 32" QDOLEDs and the Neo G9 57" and sent back both despite them being really good should tell you that I am quite happy with the QN900C as a PC monitor. The idea of going back to multi monitor setup seems unlikely...

Maybe its time to change the title of this thread to "Where are the 8K Monitors? [No monitor talk]" :D

I've tried 3 so far and all of them had some kind of problems (dead pixels, busted threads for screws etc). If it had been glossy I might have have given it a chance more.

Guessing you might not be planing to use it as a monitor or your aiming for best desk audio ever :D

I would need to see some reliable source confirm that the QN900D panel is actually 240 hz before I see that as more than a gimmic. The AI processing is probably an advantage if you use it as a TV, but since it seems to be disabled in game / PC mode, it does not really add anything for me. The...

I actually just sent back my PG32UCDM as well in favor of the QN900C. But my use case is probably 90% productivity these days. That said, I did compare them side by side for gaming and the extra brightness and OK black levels of the QN900C actually held up quite well against the PG32UCDM, mostly...

AFAIK, the lack of polarizer is to get some more brightness out of the the QDOLEDs rather than improving viewing angles (which in most cases is not a problem on any OLEDs). Traiding poor blacks for a marginal increase in viewing angles seems like a bad tradeoff.

A new QN900D review, which is kind of hit and miss at the same time https://cybershack.com.au/reviews/samsung-qn900d-neo-qled-8k-2024-bragging-rights-tv-av-review/

Yes, Tahoma or even the original MS Sans Serif is what I use when doing productivity on OLEDs. Never understood why people insisted on using fonts made for ClearType for a display not suited for ClearType.

The most funny part of The Display Guy is that it seems like there are so many people, especially on Reddit, that claim that no one should ever watch his videos, yet they seem to know every little detail from his videos :D
