Basically The Endgame
by ComansoI write this with the base line of already knowing other QD-OLED panels exist, so I'll only write the unique things about this monitor, with how big or small the positive or issue is in brackets (small, medium, big) Positives: MSI Support (BIG) - MSI seemingly have GREAT customer support, I've asked for a couple fixes prior to even getting the monitor, such as a DSC toggle. Can confirm as of FW.010 they did exactly that. Also the cleaning behavior is also fixed so it no longer stays in "off" once completed the pixel cleaning process. Minimal Lights/RGB (BIG) - Says it all really, it's very subtle, there is a small back strip which isn't bright on the top/back side of the monitor, which you can disable in the OSD very easily. Then the small white LED on the front to say "hey I'm on". Excellent packaging (medium) - They provide a film on the screen as honestly all monitor makers should do, this prevents micro scratches from occurring in shipment like other makers have suffered from. The box is also pretty hefty, plenty of protection all round and the box art is very tasteful. Better OLED care features (medium) - I'd say this is more unique to MSI, although some are trying to follow suit, MSI were to the party first however with the 3 year burn-in warranty aswell. Taskbar protection, and boundary protection both work as expected, for the taskbar it seems to work better when using dark mode however. Negatives: Color Calibration (small) - Seems calibration is 99% of the way there out of the box, most definitely your regular joe wouldn't know the difference, but I'd say slightly on the warmer side which can be fixed either with a calibration tool or by following the "best settings" guide by TFTCentral. Then it basically turns to a neutral/positive. OSD time out settings (small) - Again, very small issue, I'd like if there was an option to have longer than 30 seconds, when comparing settings in a scene sometimes you need longer than this to compare, then you have to click all the way back to the menu you were in to get back to what you were looking at. Cables (medium) - I understand most should use the HDMI 2.1b as it's the higher bandwidth port on this monitor, but I have seen complaints about lack of a displayport cable included, and whilst I'm not affected, I have to agree. Also the HDMI2.1b cable included is shorter than I'd like, just about got to where it needs to be on my setup (a regular, expected positioning). You may need to purchase a longer one if your machine is a bit further away from your monitor. Overall: I'd say I'm pretty in love with this monitor, does everything I want and the experience is just amazing. I mean, it's gen 3 QD-OLED, of course it's amazing! You will most definitely not be disappointed with your purchase. Almost everything about it screams "premium", I also like the stand being a flat base rather than 2 long legs sticking across the table. 5/5, recommend highly with all things considered.
