Gigabyte AORUS FO48U EK 47.53" OLED 4K Ultra HD Gaming Monitor - 3840 x 2160(4K Ultra HD), 120Hz, High Dynamic Range 10 (HDR10), DisplayPort 1.4

I bought this when it was £879 in the spring sale.It’s the first oled monitor I’ve had and i really like it a lot.Did some calibration from a video on youtube but it wasn’t that involved and bought a vesa certified uhbr20 2m dp cable by Silkland.I have it paired with an Aorus master 5090 and gaming on it is just wonderful but I mean all of these Samsung panels perform well, so I’m not going to dwell on anecdotal ‘inky blacks’ circlejerk or any other buzzphrase, the experience of owning an oled like this is joyous though and worth it if you can spare the premium.Is it worth the price ? No idea (maybe) I got this in the sale but was looking at the 321urx, as of writing the 322urx will probably be touted as best because of the dp 2.1 inclusion.It’s an awesome monitor and the niggles are the stand that is a little encroaching and maybe should’ve had a smaller footprint.The fluff rear lighting is a bit fluffy, just in that it’s not needed.

Originally purchased the Samsung G60SD Oled monitor but was really disappointed with it. I ended up returning the monitor due to latency issues with HDMI and the screen itself.Honestly I’ve had matte coating screens for a long time on monitors and it’s never been an issue but the Samsung matte coating made the purple tint of QD Oled far more prominent.This monitor is superior in every way, better passive cooling solution as it doesn’t get as hot, full HDMI 2.1 bandwidth and really good quality joystick for navigating the menu which, destroys Samsungs UI.You do haft to update the firmware to enable pixel cleaning but this monitor is great out of the box, picture presets are good and can be tuned really well and you can also control peak brightness in SDR by adjusting the abl stabilise in the Oled care options.Would recommend this to anyone looking for a good Oled monitor. The only one negative at the time is DSC cannot be disabled.

To anyone on the fence about making the switch to OLED I say do it. This thing is an absolute beauty, build quality feels and looks premium and the colour accuracy out of the box is excellent.I'm coming from a 240hz QLED and this thing makes it look like a CRT 😂

Really love it. The brightness could be better tho. Other than that, it's perfect

The KVM switch seemed to work nicely between PC and mac.I could control the volume of the speakers connected to the headphone port of the monitor with mac ( which I couldn't do with my previous monitor).The display is beautiful, I was worried about QD-OLED's not having the best reputation with bright rooms, and my room is extremely bright, but it's much better than my 2020 Asus IPS and that worry was gone straight away.The other concern I had was regarding macos scaling (or lack of independent UI scaling)... that is an issue, and I settled on having the 4K resolution with smaller text. Not ideal but worth it as it's a beautiful display.Unfortunately I had to send it back and am waiting on a replacement because the display port does not work whatsoever with either the mac or the pc. The rest of the ports are okay... but the 2.1 displayport connection is apparently a big reason this one is so expensive, (although personally I don't care so much about that - it was more the power delivery, kvm and clean design), so back it goes.Have to get a refund and order another one separately as amazon didn't give the option to replace.It was absolutely fantastic from what I've seen so far with it, it was just the display port that wasn't working....and oddly when I was doing my research on which monitor to get, I do remember a youtuber mentioning that his display port wasn't working either....so that is slightly concerning. Hopefully just a coincidence as it seems to be a reasonably popular monitor.

Amazing monitor. QD Oled colours are spectacular. Response time is close to zero and 360hz for gaming is sublime. Cant recommend this monitor enough. One of the highest rated 1440 QD-Oleds ever.

What I like about this monitor:- Extreme brightness, 400 nits in standard viewing and there's a mode that goes up to 1000 nits.- HDR means real HDR. None of the backlight blooming and washed out look.- Factory calibration: Printed calibration report is included in the box and delta E is <0.4%.- Gloss finish. I was initially afraid of reflections but the monitor has less reflection than my 11 inch OLED iPad when side by side.What I dislike about this monitor:- Intolerable amount of VRR flicker- Screen has purple tinge under daylight- It's too thin to mount my monitor light bar- Limited rotation and and no way to tell if the stand is centred.- Pointless RGB at the back you will never see, and too dim to function as ambient lighting. I'd rather not have it and let the monitor be cheaperOverall the cost of this monitor did not justify disposing my old IPS. Also the 500 Aorus point for reviews only apply to US & Canada region so I missed out on about £25 worth of redeemable vouchers.

Ignoring the price point - this is a stunning monitor. The KVM feature separates it from the competition and makes it perfect for WFH
