10:07 "I'm very particular about [my videos] when it comes to the colors." I just wanted you to know that I noticed. Your videos consistently look better than many HDR graded videos on YouTube even though yours are "only" SDR. A clear demonstration that quality isn't dependent on format!

This is a monitor for competitive shooters, and it shows. No frills in the design, just uncompromising performance, at least for a TN panel. Love it.

I have been waiting for this review and really enjoyed it. You did an amazing job technically reviewing the monitor and included gameplay! I can't say enough good things about the quality Optimum Tech puts into the reviews.

Great content as always, and extremely sincere! Very glad that you compared and gave unbiased opinion on whether upgrading from good 240hz panels is worth it or not, as I would have to sweat a whole lot more just to get my hands on one - prices in countries other than USA and alike are so high, the update seems like miles away 😅.

A-Class content man. You just keep setting the bar higher and higher. Well done.

I was WAITING for YOUR review to drop, thank you so much!

[eldergeektromeo]

Thank You for your in depth comparison! As far as tech goes, you're WAYYY ahead of the pack!

Big thumbs up for this video, very well layed out and informative, probably the best monitor review I've seen in a long while.

I love the slomo sequences you showed of your gameplay. The tracking on the doomfist, and the headshot in valorant are just satisfying to watch. I never really had that from a monitor review before.

The monitor isn't for me because I value 1440p too much, but it was a great review.

This was so comprehensive it was freaking amazing. Keep up the amazing content!

Gotta love the Gray to Gray response time grid. It's very informative. Please don't stop showing it.

Great review, did a good job showcasing why this 360hz panel is a cut above the rest!

[vickewar]

Love your videos! a video tip from me is to make a video about common screen problems. I just bought a 240hz zowie and had no idea that there are so many problems there can be and what causes them. i had vertical inversion artifacts, took some time before i got down the facts that it was a common TN panel problem. I believe that theres not tons of info about that, and would make a great video!

OMG thank you so much for this video, I was looking for a review of XL2566K since ZOWIE released the video about it and I'm happy that your review is finally out. Can't wait to buy it! I love CS:GO and I'm using the XL2411K as of now so this is gonna be a huge upgrade.

[nicholasberhami]

Can't appreciate it enough. I don't have the words to express how elegantly technical you're being, such a nice video. 🍻🙌

[Rosaslav]

I am looking forward to your first OLED review👍 I really appreciate all the additional info that we don’t get from other reviews.

[soulshinobi]

Your production quality and unique investigations are just absolutely top-notch

[DavidHeyManS]

I really love how you break it down with great footage
