This monitor is beyond amazing. Coming from a person who has never owned an OLED monitor and coming from a 27-inch monitor, I can confidently say this is a fantastic monitor. It's perfect for my office work and immersive gaming. I get the best of both worlds with an insanely high refresh rate for competitive gaming and the ultrawide experience for story games. The colors are stunning, and the true black 500 is just something else. I wish the cables were a bit longer and that the AI care sensor was more consistent, but all in all, this is an amazing upgrade and just an excellent OLED monitor. I'm definitely going to be holding onto this monitor for years, thanks to the OLED care features.

This is my first ultrawide but I have several OLED monitors and tv's in my house. I will say the color and the clarity is superb. Comparing a 2nd gen ASUS oled monitor there are some kwy differences. HDR is vastly improved with Peak brightness surpassing anything ive personally seen on OLED. With this monitor web browsing, editing, and document writing are all viable with no text fringing that I notice. Gaming on this is definitely the big highlight as Resident Evil Requiem looks incredible with vivid colors and deepest blacks. I will also mention i have the monitor in my bedroom that has sunlight coming in from the windows but i have no noticeable glare issues as the brightness mitigates this. I was debating the ASUS PG34WCDN but this monitor is over $300 cheaper so you really cant compete with the value.

Best OLED panel you can get right now. Previous 3rd gen QD OLED with its text clarity gave me eye strain and it’s noticeable color text fringe and purple hue. This one It’s 5th gen QD OLED, no color text fringe, text clarity is fixed, higher brightness,no more purple hue, more scratch resistance.

I have never had something like this happen before, so it feels wrong to even review something I never got to use and needing to return it immediately. The IO shield covering the ports was misaligned, so I was not able to plug anything in. This might have been something I could fix, but MSI said it would void the warranty. If I'm spending this much money on a monitor anyways it can't have these types of issues out the box. It makes me question that this monitor had been tested or any quality assurance looking it over before being boxed and shipped. There was no damage to the box and everything was packaged well. I'm sure this was just a lemon, but it wasn't something I was just able to exchange as it's now sold out again. I ended up getting the ASUS equivalent of this monitor the following week, and it's an amazing monitor. I'm sure I would have loved this too, but this is the type of thing that makes me question a brand. One final gripe as well. I had taken out the power cord and display port cord before I noticed the issue with the ports. MSI, these cables are ridiculously short. I wouldn't have been able to use any of them due to their length.

Picture on the monitor is terrific, everything you'd expect from an OLED. Text clarity is greatly updated vs older generation QD-OLED. KVM function can be a little finnicky. Monitor software for Windows functions as you'd expect, though I have been unable to get all functions working (Hot Keys, specifically). Would definitely recommend.
