QD OLED monitors have finally reached a price that's attainable for gaming enthusiasts.

What I didn't expect was that the first one to reach such a nice price would be from a real brand.

More on that later beast of a gaming monitor that that delivers all of the goodness of QD OLED like perfect blacks.

Incredible motion clarity and great viewing angles for just 420 bucks.

To put this in perspective, just four years ago this would have been $1,000 easily.

And if we go back further, an IPS with these specs would have been priced similarly just 10 years ago.

There's gotta be a downside, right, left side, right side, front side and backside.

And now it's time for Segway side to our sponsor Tello.

A wireless service that doesn't drive you crazy, Tello me about it.

Tello Mobile offers flexible and affordable phone plans with prices up to $25 a month.

Check them out using our link down below.

Just what do you get for a little over $400?

Power cable, USB B to a DisplayPort HDMI 2.1.

Well, light and flimsy, but you know, it's not expensive.

The rest of our stand, the whole thing feels a little flimsy, I won't lie.

But you know, it's got the standard column design.

It's got this nice easy to setup screw on the bottom system that a lot of them use.

My only real complaint is that these legs are definitely going to jut out pretty far into your desk space.

A little three year warranty sticker, huh?

Three years, zero dead pixel advanced replacement, one time accidental damage on the one year.

That accidental damage is a big deal actually.

And we'll be talking about it later because these guys are, they're a little fragile.

I don't know if that three year dead pixel warranty means also image retention issues or burn in.

That might be the one thing you're missing out on.

They've only got the AOC logo right there.

And other than that I don't see a Ton of like awkward branding anywhere on the back.

Good amount of swivel, decent amount of tilt and height adjustment.

It can one way pivot, it can two way pivot.

because you've got this giant bezel here, it's actually great that you can go left or right when you're pivoting.

So that when this does become a secondary display, no matter which side you put it on of your new primary, you know there's no bezel on that side.

I'll be frank, it definitely feels like one of the most rickety kind of cheap stands I've ever used.

But like, you're never gonna really notice that while you're gaming unless you're slamming around on the desk getting really angry and frustrated.

If you're concerned I'm gonna break it on, put it on an arm.

We've got a couple of USB A ports, USB B up, HDMI, HDMI, DisplayPort, headphone jack, and

We've got a couple of more USB A ports on the side here.

One thing I didn't even think about until we started plugging everything in.

It's got a little bit of cable management on the stand as well.

I still can't get over just how incredible QD OLED looks from any angle.

It just pops in a way that traditional backlit displays cannot.

And this is good old fashioned SDR or standard dynamic range content.

And it's no one trick pony featuring both strong color gamut, performance in SDR for rich vibrant colors and decent accuracy.

As long as you're in the right mode though, we would recommend calibrating it for color sensitive work.

They had to save a few bucks somewhere I guess.

And besides, this is a gaming display, you guys.

One area where older generation QD OLEDs fall a bit short of the newer ones is peak brightness in SDR.

Let's fire up some HDR or high dynamic range content to really see it shine.

If you've ever seen a QD OLED before, none of this is going to surprise you much.

But thanks to the individual pixel level control of both color and brightness.

the the ability to turn pixels completely off for infinite contrast massively helps the image come to life and feel more immersive.

Darkness looks, well, dark and specular highlights from something like a light glinting off a piece of metal look bright rather than white compared to the world around it.

You know what else might brighten your day?

We've got new colors for our legendary super soft hoodie, blue and chocolate shipping now@lttstore.com I'd be wearing a blue one, but

everyone keeps stealing them off the racks.

We actually encountered some weird behavior in our testing where in HDR we're only getting 69% of the BT 2020 color space.

When we get 80% when we test it in SDR, it's not so nice.

It's the kind of thing that our test equipment picks up, but

your eyes are unlikely to catch unless you're comparing it side by side with a more expensive oled.

And if you're coming from a traditional IPS or VA monitor, you're still going to be blown away.

And at least the colors you are seeing are pretty accurate.

We measured about an average Delta E ITP of 12 in HDR movie mode and just 11.2 in HDR game, which is about on par with the tandem OLED LG GX7 we looked at earlier this year.

It's not on par with a tandem OLED in every way though.
