Product Information

Sadly, the text clarity has issues, and while this isn't too distracting, there's some clear color fringing when multiple windows are open. While the text clarity isn't as good as other 34-inch, 3440x1440 displays with a typical RGB subpixel structure, it isn't a major issue, and text is still easy to read; and it comes up to personal preference whether you like it or not.

The Samsung OLED G8 has decent text clarity, but it displays the same issues we've seen with other QD-OLED monitors, like the Dell Alienware AW3423DW and Dell Alienware AW3423DWF, due to its triangular RGB subpixel structure. There, you’ll find all the traditional controls plus two and 20-point white balance, gamma presets, color gamut options, color management and a few other tweaks. Being based on an OLED technology panel this also means that it can offer per pixel level local dimming, producing excellent results for HDR content, and avoiding issues with blooming and halos that you get on even the best FALD/Mini LED backlit LCD displays.Accessories Often the packaging of desktop monitors and smart TV sets includes accessories for them. The near-infinite contrast is ideal for viewing content in dark rooms and gets bright enough for highlights to pop. Note: While the listed test results are with Firmware 1422, we did our initial testing on Firmware 1421 before updating. Unpacking and assembling the monitor was also easy, took about 5 minutes with no assistance (the box is massive!

If you're using an AMD graphics card and want the brightest image possible, you may have to disable VRR. The super slim frame with the premium metal finish and mesmerizing Core Lighting+ to upgrade your gaming room.

However, because of the sample-and-hold method that OLEDs use, there's still a bit of persistence blur. Other things of note, the monitor has speakers built in which sound like you would expect them too (terrible).

The Samsung also has a built-in smart system, making it easier to stream your favorite content without the need for a PC.Any OLED requires certain adjustments when used as PC desktop other wise there is a risk to them all. Smooth visuals and responsive gameplay are powered by Samsung's advanced game streaming technology without downloads - just turn on and play. On the flip side, the bright room experience isn't as good as ambient light causes blacks to look purple. The operating temperature shows the safe temperature range (from minimum to maximum), within which the display will function flawlessly.
