not a bad deal so long as you understand you are not getting full-sized ports and no burn-in warranty. (This is why I went with the MSI competitor with the same panel for the same price).

not bad! i paid 1k for this last year. Its an excellent monitor. You do get micro ports which is annoying but once you swap them out its not an issue. Monitor is a smart TV and has all apps and also has xbox game pass. I havent had any burn in issue with it, but I am a responsible oled user. I also use it for work btw, and still dont have burn in. Just be responsible.

There is also 10% cashback on monitors using something that sounds like "raccoon ten". IYKYK... LOL,... So everything came out to less than $600 after tax with the cashback (10% cashback is greater than tax).

I received this monitor 4 days ago and its definitely great for media consumption and ultrawide gaming as expected with a QD OLED monitor!

However, the text fringing (inherent issue with QD OLED tech) did bother me a bit in the beginning as I also do office work. It is not the best for productivity such as spreadsheets and such.

It does come with a mini DP to DP port wire in the box so I am fine with the mini ports.

A vesa mount converter was also included in the box which I did not expect.

The 34" QD OLED G8 picture quality is better than my 32" NEO G7 mini-led (which I exclusively use for the PS5), but the quality is damn close!

"This gives us high confidence to include burn-in coverage into our 3 year warranty."

So I think I'm pushing my quest for the best price/quality 75-100' mini led/OLED 120hz tv until summer bcuz my buddy is giving me his 65' Vizio M series ( yes only 60hz but I'm dying on a 5yr old 42' Hisense so for a free upgrade it's worth to wait out my ideal tv price until summer IMHO - here is my ? 2all the efficient shrewd fiscally responsible elite SDers - is this monitor the best price/quality combo for my PS5 pro that I'm getting within a month ? Ikno ikno ikno this is a first world problem , but I'm not tech savvy adjusting settings w/ pcs so imo a PS5 pro is less hassle,will this monitor max out my PS5 pro experience & does any SDer know of a best price /quality speaker set i can get w/ this? Also kinda OT but am I wrong that TV's w/ 120hz will ALWAYS drop in price thus ride my pals Vizio M series out & I get more specs & size cheaper in my "ideal" TV the longer I wait ? Thanks to all that reply , I respect the hell outta the SDers w/ their impeccable high standards for best quality & price for everything, BUT especially electronics, specifically TV's & monitors- yes ideally want a best quality /price mini led/OLED 120hz 75'-100' tv ( ikno ikno Capt obvious over here - like who doesn't want that when looking @ tvs & monitors?) but i feel riding out a high end 3-4 year old vizio m series for free upgrading from a 42' 5yr old hisense is the best option bcuz its a HUGE upgrade 4me w/ sports( cable ) & utube vids & I can spend only 3-500$ on a killer monitor 4my ps5 pro & get my "dream" tv in 6-24 months thus way more specs & size for way less $ - replies w/ thoughts opinions concerns & critiques are much appreciated & yes ikno ikno ikno im pretty blessed to have this 1st world problem , what a time to be alive 😁

Edit- I have pasted this comment on a few different monitor threads, not trying to clog up the comment section, it's just I appreciate the knowledge integrity & perseverance of y'all SDers when it comes to giving opinions on what the best rato of quality/ up to date technology/price when it comes to monitors & TV's
