6:33 How to get one and Optimism for Dough

[malguskerensky]

There are hundreds if not thousands of people that are owed refunds and Dough does nothing but ignore the requests. They STOLE customer's money and provided nothing in return, zip, nada. Does not matter if there are 3rd party vendors involved, Eve/Dough/whatever they are called next, they scammed customers out of their money. Personally I have been attempting to get a refund since August 2023 after months of not receiving an ordered product.

Your last set of spectrum videos were great, in fact probably the best Mac ones out there with this. It’s only a logical progression for you to get the gorilla version coming. BH is a great place for them to get as a distributor. It’s a great monitor for those wanting this functionality for sure. Support after return period i might be skeptical about still but at least they didnt go into hiding and are taking strides to better their image. Cheers on the plug.

Wish more companies came up with more glossy glass version

[t.h.]

So I bought one 2 years ago. Took a bit, but arrived and believe me I have nearly every top monitor. Besides, this one is the best combination for me. So, getting one with Gorilla Glas would be perfect

Just recieved my Spectrum one with Gorilla Glass from BH to pair with my M3 Macbook. I wanted something that would be similar to my 5k iMac. One thing to keep in mind if you intend to use the USB-C: Set your Input setting to 'USB-C Bandwidth Priority'. Initially the monitor wasn't displaying anything from my laptop until I changed that setting. Second, the firmware is clunky and slow at times. Third, if you're worried about the ppi, I though this would be a problem but it's sharp. I think the glossy finish helps reduce perceived quality differences it and a retina screen.

So far its awesome!

I strongly urge all YouTubers to remove all videos endorsing Dough (formally known as Eve) due to their track record failure to deliver promised products, and their refusal to provide refunds. It is essential to ensure viewers are not misled or inadvertently support a company with such concerning practices no matter how many times they had re-branded themselves.

lol I wouldn't give this company a penny. They can't even sell the monitor without a $100 pre payment for something you won't get for a year, if even then. could you imagine going trying to get help via support or need a replacement? you would wait for eternity. I am not "placing an order" at full retail, you either have one to sell or you don't. Don't sell it if you don't have any stock.

Do you think that the gorilla glass make a huge difference compared to the glossy glass that they have in stock?

[kimabg]

It’s worth mentioning that Dough make awesome looking monitors only for reviewers. Actual customers never receive the monitors they order.

[manyu]

I originally had the glossy model first, and then now the gorilla glass, but I can’t tell the difference, can you?

[realavx]

Ahh, the monitor that you cannot buy. the monitor that only reviewers get.

How fast is wake from sleep, when comparing to Apple Studio Display?

[gerald]

I have a 4K LG Ultrafine 24 inch monitor which serves as a second monitor which I use with my 27 inch iMac. I run it at 1920x1080 resolution, i.e., four native pixels are combined into one effective pixel to be displayed. Window controls, text, etc. are slightly larger when compared to similar items that appear on my iMac screen but not to a large extent. However, everything appears sharper since the monitor is being operated at its native resolution. Operating at a scaled resolution does result in slightly less sharpness in the appearance of text, etc.

Nice review!
What type of cable do you need to use to get the full 144hz + 4K + charging from your MacBook to the display?

[selcukeksi]

So what would be the best alternative affordable version of Apple Studio Display ? how do the new Oled monitors compare? Do higher-Hz monitors tend to be better for reducing eyestrain?"

[TheCreatorMatt]

Have you noticed any image retention with this display?

[saidchammas]

Two questions: where can I get this wallpaper, and what do you call this kind of graphic work that doesn't really have gradients with shadows, just solid colors all the way through?

[loldatfunny]

Jerry i love your channel and content so don't take this the wrong way but i just dont like eve/dough as a company (you can find plenty of info online why people dont like eve/dough) i rather get QD-OLED monitors that goes on sale for around $800-1000 and there will be 4K 32" QD OLED glossy monitors releasing in 2024 as well. If you don't like OLED monitors because of burn in, you can get cheaper 4K high refresh rate monitors with mini-LED and FALD for cheaper or same price like the innocn 27M2V or 32M2V. They are not glossy but mini-LED + FALD is better than just ips with glossy coating.

I got Spectrum One and there's one thing that I absolutely hate - every time I wake up my mac, then it takes around 10 seconds for the monitor to wake up. This also applies when I come back to the desk and plug the monitor into my mac. With other monitors it is around 2-3 seconds. This is so annyoing.

[firstcomesrock]

i got this monitor and loveeee it, finally a glossy monitor!!!
