I own this monitor, and it's absolutely incredible. It's not perfect, but it's close. If you can deal with these caveats:
1. There can be no sources of light facing the screen. It's a QD OLED, and dark/black areas will look purple.
2. It's not tremendously bright. I have a window behind my display, and it's just fine, but this monitor is not well suited for a very brightly lit room.
3. If you use VRR, the frame rate needs to be rather consistent, otherwise you will get a weird strobing effect in black areas. Frame rate caps are always your friend, but this issue really highlights their importance.
4. It needs to perform a pixel refresh cycle every 4-8 hours. This takes about 5 min. It will automatically initiate, or can be user initiated

Overall, I love this monitor. It's soo damn inky and smooth. I could only see myself upgrading to a 480hz OLED. That said, you'll want to make sure you have the hardware to drive whatever games you'll be playing in it.

Editing: 9.0
Brightness: 6.6
Response Time: 9.9
HDR Picture: 9.4
SDR Picture: 10

How so? 6.6 is a quite reasonable number for OLED

They seem to like it over both ASUS OLEDs.

Is this a "quantum" leap over a good ips display?

I'm looking to upgrade from my Gigabyte G27QC 165hz monitor. I have a 9800x3d + 7900xtx. Currently getting 300+ FPS on Black Ops 6 with everthing low.

I'm debating between this or Acer X27U for $500.

Based on our ASUS laptop OLED id says it's very pretty especially gaming. Very noticeable.

No doubt in my mind that this is the better monitor. It's also more money.

The MSI is $700 sold and shipped from Walmart, and comes with a code for Monster Hunter Wilds and a $30 steam code if you follow the instructions on the MSI website

For gaming this screen is a LOT better than an IPS if you have the hardware to drive the framerate in the hundreds. The gameplay is super smooth in a way that's hard to describe and it looks so crisp. While it's not as bright as the IPS I had before (Dell S2721DGF 2K 165 Hz), it's bright enough. I didn't have the brightness up all the way on the IPS anyway. It's also great for movies/TV, especially if the content is HDR enabled.

If you want to see what 360 Hz or a high refresh rate in general can do check out the different tests at this site:
https://www.testufo.com/

The one downside so far is how crisp text is - it's less crisp than IPS. I've only had it for a few days. When I compare I can tell the difference between the screens side by side, but if I'm not looking for it then I don't notice. It isn't causing me any eyestrain or trouble yet, but I'll have to see how it goes because I do use the same monitor for work.
