DO NOT Buy an LG OLED Monitor - Here’s Why
I see you there ogling that LG OLED monitor or even 42” C3, and I'm here to tell you please for the love of all that is holy do not buy that thing.

Now I know what you're thinking, what does this guy know? I'm gonna buy 10 just because he told me not to, well go ahead, do it, see what happens.

You know what’s gonna happen, you're gonna have serious buyer's remorse, because first of all, and most importantly there are some WAY, and I mean WAY better OLED monitors coming out very soon.

We have a whole gaggle of companies such as ASUS, MSI, Alienware, and probably many more getting ready to take a steaming dump of OLED monitors on us very soon. How soon, well recently Alienware revealed they would have two new monitors available in early January of next year, which is around just three months away, and if they stick to what they said, any OLED you buy now is going to get destroyed.

Look OLED monitors now certainly aren’t bad, and if you bought one earlier this year that you’re enjoying, I don’t want you to feel bad about it, but if your thinking of buying one now, depending on what the size and resolution is, you may want to seriously reconsider, because these new monitors coming early next year are using Samsung’s new QD OLED gen 2 panels and will be offering sizes and resolutions we have been asking for for YEARS.

Now if you’ve been following the TV market you’ll know that the gen 2 QD OLED panels are being used in the best flagship TV’s available.

But more than that LG OLED monitors with the exception of the 42” TVs are using absolute garbage matte finishes which look like you poured vegetable oil. There are no words for how horrified I was to find that LG had decided to so thoroughly annihilate their monitors with such a god awful finish that blurs everything and mutes perceived color while smearing reflections across the whole screen which of course harms the contrast all in a vain attempt to stop reflections which isn’t possible by the way.

Well guess what. QD OLED panels are all glossy by design which means that the outcoming image has very minimal distortion applied before hitting your eyes allowing for the best clarity, contrast, and vibrancy, but even if you don’t care about that you should care that there will be many more options on the market next year including a 32” 4K 240Hz and 27” 1440p 360Hz which will offer far superior image quality over anything available now, and from what I’m hearing they might not cost that much more than many OLED’s available today. We’re talking probably around $1,500 for the 4K monitors, and likely closer to $1,200 - $1,000 for the 1440p option, and were not even talking about the many other sizes that have been leaked coming out from both Samsung and LG, but even with LG’s new MLA OLED panels which greatly improve brightness and viewing angles, personally I’m not waiting for any of their monitors at this point, because if they continue to take a fat dump on top of the screen and likely can never solve the low color volume I have repeatedly measured on all LG OLED’s likely due to the extra white sub pixel, than the QD OLED monitors from Samsung are just better by default, and in my opinion LG should be entirely abandoned by the PC industry and buyers until they create a new panel technology which can compete with what Samsung has brought to the table.
