World first QD-OLED monitor from Dell and Samsung (34 inch Ultrawide 175hz)

August is the delivery schedule for new orders now it seems. Crazy.

Also a shower thought, watching some LG OLED videos on youtube and some reviewers highlighting why you should NOT run the pixel/panel refresh too often. Sony's own OLED FAQ states not to run a panel refresh more than once a year, Sony use LG OLED panels.

Whilst Samsung/Dell make no mention of any limitations here so I imagine Samsung have either worked around the pixel degrade span by using pixel/panel refresh, or QD-OLED does not actually have this issue at all. You could effectively run panel refresh on this AW 5 times in a year assuming it is used 24/7 to build up those 1500 hours per prompt or more if you spot image retention.
 
It should work fine. The LX has a capacity of just under 12GB whilst the MX has a capacity of just under 14KG. I have the MX and it's no issue at all. This monitor without stand is 6.9KG so the LX is more than enough.
 
Pretty much said there is nothing available I said I'd wait 4 weeks max but said that it is very very unlikely.
Very poor show
It is. Dell are not what they used to be in my experience. What was your issue and did they say you can keep the monitor until they replaced it? I mean if it is a case a dead pixel or something like that I would rather keep it and wait. That way you get a fresh new panel again in 4-5 months would be my thinking :p
 
Crazy they don't even reserve stock for warranty purposes. Can't even remember the last time I've heard a company not doing that, usually that's just the norm, lol.

It's ****** m8 won't turn pick up any inputs just lights but dead screen tried every input otherwise I'd keep and wait as the issue was screen peel but I thought il turn it on and at least try it lol but nothing

Pixel refresh is nowhere near the same as Panel refresh. Also LG OLED's automatically run pixel refresh after a set amount of time when the TV goes into standby. It just doesn't prompt you like the AW seems to.

It's why you should never turn an LG OLED off at the wall after using it.

LG explain here what pixel refresher is actually doing. So it won't adjust anything if it detects no degredation.

Panel refresh in comparisson is very aggressive and actually drives the pixels themselves while it is refreshing the display. Hence why vertical bars are seen while it's running.

Oh I already know this, it's explained by Dell on this monitor for example and takes an hour - The same amount of time it takes an LG OLED panel to panel refresh - Hence why I wondered if it was a similar thing between them but just that Samsung have figured a way to do it that does not degrade the lifespan of the OLED pixels since they make no mention of only doing it every 1500 hours - In fact that actively state you can manually run it in the manual with no stipulation about x amount of times in any given period.
 
Someone locally had commited to buy my Acer X34a on Thursday for my asking price of £270.

Fortunately I recently bought a Omen 25i 165Hz display for a secondary so that's gonna have to be my primary for a few weeks. Slumming it! :cry:
 
Speaking of selling old monitor, someone is coming over tonight to buy my LG 34UM95-P - I posted it up for £250, they offered £220. Fair deal tbh. Will be sad to see it go, it gave me superb service since 2014!
 
Well mine will be going back soon so maybe one of you will get it :p It's a good one too, no issues with fan noise nor marks on screen like some others.

If the current second order gets pushed back till after May or has issues where I need a warranty replacement and ETA is August, I just won't bother though, no point during the good weather months and also very busy with work and other things atm so won't get to use it much, by which time, Samsung and maybe some other brands will be out.....

Great screen shots Nexus18, really want a QD Oled PC monitor sometime probably next year, not interested in LG 42'' TV still too big imo.

Not reordering the 34'' QD Oled from Dell though, happy with my 27'' Lcd 1440p monitor for now.

The colour reproduction is also better on this due to the Quantum dots and lack of white sub-pixel.

It's a very good display, absolutely poos all over my lg 55" e7 oled. Clarity/sharpness really is very good and I found myself noticing more variety of colours, seeing more details etc. that I never seen before on either my previous ips 34" 1440 monitor nor my 55e7, perhaps due to various things i.e. better range of colours on show, sitting closer to the 34" than the 55" (7 feet viewing distance for it) and it not having a matte finish which smudges/hides detail e.g. in guardians of the galaxy, at this bit here, after the lighting strikes, you get like a shockwave, never noticed this before on my previous displays:

And little things like the rain/droplets hitting surface being more noticeable.

Why you sending it back then?
