  When I laughed at a 27 inch OLED deal for $1200 which was a 2nd, and then I got negged, I mean isn't the whole point of OB to have something like this deal rather than something like the 27 inch?
  Fwiw the OLED was only 1440P too.

    This price has come up a few times I suppose and there's been some better 49 inch deals if you can stretch your money so I understand why this deal wouldn't be super popular, the 32:9 aspect ratio also doesn't have much support just yet so it's a fairly niche spec

      On the contrary, I think this is a stellar panel and well worth the money, when compared to the 27 inch OLED, it makes a mockery of it.
      32:9 aspect ratio is a content creators dream, if I was in the market for a new screen, this would be it.
      I paid $1200 for a 4K 65 inch miniLED though, and that's a bargain that can't be beat, especially when it does 144HZ.
      Still this screen is a great buy.

    I also can't justify the price point for OLED either but each to their own

      OLED is not what you want for static images, I have 2 panels side by side, both 65 inch, OLED vs miniLED.
      PC work and gaming = miniLED, Movies = OLED.

  Yeah but it's still $999 for 1440p VA.
  Maybe it's that the Philips 43" 4k is oddly cheap but I feel there are stupid markups on widescreens and refresh rates that aren't reasonable. Maybe it's because the screen is also curved? I'm not saying it's bad just saying I don't understand

    Which Phillips monitor? I think I found it but it's 60hz and seems to be more aimed at office work, i suppose this is strictly for gaming. I suppose the price point is because it's offering 32:9 aspect ratio which there's few options if you want it, high refresh rate, USB hub and USB C compatibility is a bonus too, also has good colour accuracy and 450nits from what I can see.

      438P1. It's what I use, yes low refresh rate but fine for me. It has a hub iirc (I don't use it)

        Yeah to me that monitor seems cheap and I've seen some deals for it but it also just seems like a 43" TV but with better response times and IPS screen. I would probably justify spending the bit extra on a QLED or miniLED TV instead. When you look at it like that it's not that cheap and probably priced decently compared to say a 32 inch IPS 4k high refresh rate monitor which sit at around $1k before sales so I suppose something like that is more comparable to this monitor.

    lookingforadeal7 on 19/01/2024 - 20:51

    There wouldn't be many use cases where this becomes a better option over something else though, I could see if you were into sim racing it might be a good single monitor solution.

  This is shorter height than a 27" right? Seems weird to me

  • 

    maverickjohn on 20/01/2024 - 11:37

    It's 2 X 24" side by side equivalent, so yeah compare to 24 rather than 27

      hippo2s on 20/01/2024 - 16:57

      For 2x 27 inch it needs to be 49inch?

  Thanks - got it for $949.05 with OW price beat!

    Nice good price, I'm surprised they haven't price dropped to $997 on their website yet as they've had this price a couple times before. If anyone else was looking at the monitor seems like a good time to do it.

      They will eventually. I have this panel and rate it. Was toying with the idea of that 5k2k kogan panel… but its low spec in other areas eventually put me off. For $950, its a no brainer for those willing to shell out the $$.
