“I've had the non-F version of this monitor for two years and it's the best display I've ever seen by a mile. Two years later and it still blows me away sometimes with how good it is.”
“I've had the non-F version of this monitor for two years and it's the best display I've ever seen by a mile. Two years later and it still blows me away sometimes with how good it is.”
“30% sdr brightness is what feels comfortable to me. And I’m in a pretty bright room. I can’t understand people that run this monitor at 50% or higher. That strains my eyes so much.”
“the one they tried to send me as a replacement was totally messed up. lol Scratches all over the frame/housing, and screen damage where someone tried to clean it with chemicals.”
“My monitor had 9600 hours on time according to MonInfo and the replacement has 350. Zero burn in and had I not used MonInfo, I would have thought the panel was new by the looks of it.”
“if you are planning to use it primarily for watching YT content, watch out, it's not that good for that... for games it's sweet.. doesn't match the 4K pixel density I have on my LG C2”
“Every Alienware AW3423DW(F) I looked at had scratches on the screen because they don't include a peel and use a Styrofoam protector instead. I returned 5+ due to this issue.”
“I had a panel issue after 12 months, not burn in related and had a replacement delivered the next day and they took the old one at the same time. Can’t complain with the service really.”
“I have a 2nd gen QD OLED AW 1440p and honestly at this point I don't even bother using HDR on it, same as you have experienced those pesky crushed blacks makes CP look awful.”
“I've owned the aw3423dwf, aw3225qf and currently have the MSI mpg 321urx. While the third gen qd oled monitors are a lot closer than the first Gen UW, they're all still bested by my C2 42.”
“I had this issue 6 months after getting the monitor. Always did the pixel refreshes, hid task bar, etc... if you do any 16:9 content eventually you will get this issue.”
“Love this thing. Had to return once for a stuck pixel. Replacement came perfect. No coil whine on either one. Use it for 8+ hours a day since I also use it as my work monitor.”
“I actually ran the built-in Pixel Refresh cycle three times, and the patch completely vanished—so it wasn’t a permanent defect but just temporary image retention. The panel’s now rock-solid”
“I have a burn mark in the middle of the screen, as I use it in split-screen mode for studying (Word + browser). It's visible only on the grey background. A regular panel refresh is not fixing it”
“Been used daily for gaming and work with no concern taken by me for burn in and I have no burn in on it at all. It’s been fantastic monitor. Honestly prefer it more for work than gaming.”
“If I leave it on when browsing the web and just doing general computer stuff I get intermittent screen flickering which is a bit annoying (never happens during games tho).”
“This is a beast of a monitor! I literally use one at work for colour accuracy as it’s one of the most colour accurate monitors you can get, almost flawless after calibration”
“I have a DWF but if I could trade it in for a G8 OLED, I would. No fans No coil whine lottery Protective film on screen to avoid scratches that has plagued the DW/DWF”
“I have this monitor, wouldn’t buy it if I used Windows for work, the subpixel rendering makes the fringing a lot more obvious than MacOS and any Linux distro I’ve tried.”
“I was worried about the lower refresh rate but it honestly feels ever so slightly faster at 175hz due to its super fast response times. And then for single player games HDR is incredible.”
“I have the aw4323dwf for about 3 months now and am underwhelmed by it. I brought the aw3225qf and it's far better, so now my dwf is just chilling as my second screen”
“for all else I cant help but feel like everything is too squished, its one of the reasons why I got rid of my AW3423DWF a while back. I like having more vertical space”
“I've sent in my AW3423DW (non-F) for replacement units twice now for the exact reason of burn-ins. The first unit got burnt in fairly quickly in less than a year.”
“From what i have seen with my G8 and friends AW3423DWF, G8 really pops in HDR, AW looks bland. We tried for an hour to fix it because we thought it was his settings, nothing changed the result.”
“I’ve had my DWF for almost 2 years now and I have no visible burn in. My usage in a week probably averages out to 10 hours of gaming and one 8 hour day of productivity work”
