Thanks for talking about the productivity side of the monitor...we can't play games ALL the time, so it's good to know that it's still decent for spreadsheets/office, etc.

Odyssey OLED G8 or GIGABYTE AORUS FO32U2?

[kalkydra]

Great video as always, man! You really give a good overview. One question: Do you think the RTX 4090 would be able to run this OLED G8 monitor as the main monitor and two OLED G6 monitors as secondary monitors? I've read and heard that several individuals have issues running three monitors because the Nvidia card only lets them select two. Cheers!

I have this monitor, and I would say that the coating on the screen is just like the coating on a regular monitor.

Really dissapointed by the “Peak Brightness” setting not being available in SDR, makes the monitor much dimmer in SDR, unlike my S95B which allows the setting to be used and looks so bright in SDR, the monitor does look as bright as my previous mini led monitor ( neo g8 ) in HDR though.

The LG has the boxy appearance in the back not only to house the electronics, but also because of the speakers built in behind the screen.

how does this compare to a LG c4 or c3 42" brightness wise?

I (briefly) owned an Odyssey OLED G8 last year before deciding Ultrawide wasn't for me and replacing it with an Asus WOLED. But I don't think Tizen OS on that model let you navigate with a mouse and keyboard, you HAD to use their included remote. This is an extremely nice quality of life change

You said you're preparing a reviewfor the Legion 9i.. Do you have the problem of stuttering on Performance mode? On Time Spy and GPU intensive games?

Today received odyssey G80SD and faced with the problem that when I connect to Mac via hdmi or any other ports, refresh rate 120hz, even if you reduce it to 2k it is still 120hz. Tried all settings, different cables and nothing helps. Who has experienced this can you help me ? Because there was no such problems on MSI monitor.

I have it, its a great gaming monitor. HOWEVER, if you dont have a nearby window I would go for glossy OLEDs.

[GibbonActivist]

How do streaming apps such as Hulu look on it for you? For me the smart hub itself along with most of the apps I have tried do not look good at all honestly, I assume its just software as pc looks fine but am confused as to why Hulu looks like its on a 2014 tv.

If it matte im not interested. Waiting for when they release it with gloss screen

Can u do the new oled g6 too no one is reviewing these monitors

[itzturtlexd]

I got my G6 yesterday (for competitive) and I love it so much I immediately knew I have to full send and get the G8 for single player games. 😅😂

How do you compare text clarity between you 57 odyssey g9 and this odyssey g8 4k?

[mlqh]

How did you use mouse and keyboard in the Tizen OS? I remember seeing a prompt saying that you could install some software but forgot what it's called

[exj]

did you have tested flickering on other qd 32 4k screens?

I first ordered LG 32 because od deeper blacks, but canceled order and go for Samsung. Because they gave me 200 euro bettee price than LG and 3 year burn in warranty. ( LG doesnt cover burn in warranty in price). So I am happy and waiting for my samsung to come
