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."
