Price is $732.88 now… OLED prices are plummeting.. I would jump on this but I just purchased the Samsung OLED G9. I gotta say I love the 49" OLED. Playing Red Dead Redemption 2 is phenomenal at 5120x1440! So cinematic, it's absolutely beautiful in super wide HDR

Wow now seriously thinking of testing text fringe on these at this price and Amazon returns.

Seems to suggest the kvm is between usb c and whatever the usb b is connected too. Product page had me confused.

Next question: wait for Black Friday?

I would have Best Buy match the price and then get the geek squad 4 year warranty.

Add the Best Buy $49 membership and then you get 60 day returns which will get you past Black Friday.

How is text? Was gonna jump on the 38" lg nano ips but this price is now cheaper for Oled. My only concern is text fringe as I'll work more on this than game and qdhd will be good for productivity

Text seems fine to me. I have no problems at all with it

In the same boat... I'm using lg 38wr85qc right now and I'm happy with it except it's not an oled. All of our TVs at home are oled and it bothers me my monitor isn't... I tried alienware aw3423dw when it just launched and didn't like it due to low brightness. Not sure if I'll like this one but the price is so so tempting...

I went from an Alienware 34dwf and am currently testing a Phillips 49" that is a Samsung panel, I believe the same one as the G95SC. The difference in the text is quite a step up from the Alienware which has substantial text fringing. The ratio is also something you have to consider if it's beneficial. For me having a remote is a necessity/boon if you want to mount the monitor on an arm which I have. Reaching behind a 49" monitor to use the interface is absurd. The people who design these monitors need a good smack in the head with a book on usability in many regards. If you're going to use the stand on any of these 49" monitors get ready to have your desk space colonized. If you're going to take the plunge I recommend using a browser plugin such as https://chromewebstore.google.com...ofnedofplf

I just bought two of these when they were 849. They're amazing for productivity. I use one for personal machine and one for work.

At this price it's an easy yes.

Is there a feature on Amazon if you "save it for later" it saves the price you saved it at? I'm showing it still available in my save for later at $732.88 and even when i start a check out it stays that price.

Definitely not, I added to my cart to do research and decide if I should bite at $733, only for it to go up to $950 in my cart and on the page.
