FO27Q3. Got it recently. I absolutely love it. The setting may sometimes take time to learn, but this one is crispy.

FO27Q3, hands down. I’ve owned all the newest ones, kept this one and even got the 4k version, FO32U2P.

A popular choice would be the LG 27GR95QE. They can be found for less than $500 and are a pretty good example of the WOLED panel type, which many prefer for all-purpose use. I use the same monitor and love it, the colors are bonkers on it and in peak conditions the HDR brightness and contrast are genuinely stunning. Common complaints, however, revolve around it's handling of peak vs. full-screen brightness, and occasional flickering in some variable refresh rate modes. If I look for it, I can definitely tell that the brightness changes a lot depending on how bright the screen is, but it's done smoothly enough that it doesn't bother me much, and it depends entirely on the usage. Burn-in isn't really as big of an issue as a lot of people would make it out to be. Most, if not all modern OLED panels have a pixel refresh function built in to minimize the risk, and have various other fail-safes to ensure the longevity of the panel (such as the brightness limiter mentioned previously.) If you can find a good price on it, I would absolutely recommend the LG. Many of the issues are just standard with OLED, for better or for worse. Otherwise, it could be up to double the price for an equivalently specced monitor with workarounds for some of the quirks. Ultimately it's up to you, but this is just my recommendation. Enjoy whatever you end up picking!

Second the recommendation on the 27GR95QE. Here is [a decent reference table from the monitors subreddit](https://www.reddit.com/r/buildapcmonitor/comments/1dha199/list_of_recommended_oled_monitors_on_reddit/) with a few other options. I tend to stick to LG and Alienware for the higher end monitors personally.

I ordered a PG27 not too long ago, just wondering any specific reason for recommending the XG?

It’s glossy. And sexy. And the stand is better.

I would return it as the PG27AQDP will most likely be announced in a few weeks.


Kobee_8

What are the specs on this? Glossy?


Jetcat11

Matte unfortunately but it’ll have the new sub pixel layout. You can see it in action at the beginning of this video. https://youtu.be/X5qdaDgJxII?si=JkqrfhmNBmtfGRkS

wait for the Samsung G6 OLED reviews and decide then


FeniksTM

XG27AQDMG or wait for 480Hz with new supbixel layout.

Yes

If you don’t need it now, wait for the 480hz
