Big fan of the updated checklists at the end - fantastic summary of some things that are often hard to find info for.

FYI depending on your region, there's also a version of the G9 without the smart TV components for a cheaper price

[davidkatsmam]

I bought one in the launch day in Brazil last year. To me is a dream come true after owning the first G9 and G9 NEO. This OLED image quality is simply perfect, the only small gripe is that I prefer the tighter 1000R curve of the older versions.

I have not seen the review yet, but I would like to point out that there exists the G93SC as well which I have purchased. It is the same monitor but without the smart hub features.

[MrNygaard]

Ordered Oled G9 without Smart functions today, i really can't wait too unbox this beast of a monitor! Thanks for your work on the review!

[lorsch.]

I recommend the Oled G93SC instead of this one for an easier OSD layout.
It's the same monitor without the smart tv functionality.

I am so glad Tim finally reviews this monitor. The G9 series imo is the peak of monitor technology for sim based games.

[pvtcmyers]

Really great updates checking at the end of the review. Also thank you for checking for the differences between the amd and nvidia gpus.

[blackmage]

Interesting but what I am really looking forward to is a review of the new 32" 4K OLED monitors, particularly the Dell AW3225QF.

[douglaspianta]

Looks really good. Now just need a review of the 57" G9. That panel looks insane.

[gamingmarcus]

Loving the new checklist! Great stuff when you want to go back and compare multiple products.

[BlackBirdMax]

Thanks for this review. I ended up purchasing this monitor because of it. I've been using it for about a month now, and I am not disappointed. I have always been a dual monitor to gamer and was apprehensive about the switch. I have no doubts now, this was a good purchase. The colors and feel while in the game are really amazing. While it's not the best resolution scale for counterstrike, the response time, and refresh rate is. Again, thanks for the video. Without it, I would t of been convinced to purchase.

[jahkae]

Excellent review as always. Can’t wait for your review of the AW3225QF!

[kosmosyche]

This monitor looks quite impressive, but what I would really like to know is the current state of support of such extremely wide aspect ratio monitors. What games support it out of the box, what games are easily tweakable or patchable for such support, what problems could I expect from games and even from the OS itself? This is basically my main gripe with such monitors. I've had a wide monitor before and I was not satisfied with the experience, to say it mildly. Maybe you could make a video, specifically covering wide aspect ratio monitors and everything around them.

[hawkinsjd]

I have had my G9 for 3 weeks. I really like the monitor but, have changed my use of the monitor to attempt to stave off burn in. Active wall paper, moving my windows around while using, full screening youtube etc. I have been very impressed so far.

[Hugs]

22:16 it hurts my brain that "acceptable hdr performance on all gpus" has to be included in the checklist now, truly absurd. (i really like this new checklist btw, great job)

[ChewyMustaineReviews]

This guy is the most detail, especific, and inteligent reviewer on the entire planet.

[Dangerman-zgui]

I have this monitor and stepped up from a LG 34UC79G, just amazing to use.

I got it for a good deal when it came out (£1360 with free Galaxy Buds Pro 2) so it was absolutely worth it for me.

[black]

Man i fell in love with the gloss look, my room is always pretty dark so reflections are a none issue for me

[killervanilla]

Absolutely appreciate how thorough this is. Thank you!
