That said, it looks fantastic. Rich colors, inky blacks (i mean, its oled) and it runs surprisingly cool. Panel is super thin, which is neat. I could not be more pleased with how my games look on this thing. Even old stuff that doesn't support HDR look better. 280hz is overkill since im still running a 3080ti but it's nice it's there. I would, however, be hesitant to use this in a mixed use setup and would def not use it for a productivity setup.
The panel is glossy coated, which i believe most oleds are. Not my preference but i don't have a light source behind me so not hugely impactful. Has a lot of "don't let my oled burn in" tech including the "image rentention refresh" which tries to run ever 4 or 6 (forget which) hours of use. There is an option to turn it off, but i left it and the rest enabled. It isn't a big deal for me personally but i can surely see it annoying others. Lastly a note on gysnc. My last monitor was gsync and this one is. obviously, not. I haven't noticed any difference in game play using freesync instead.
All that said i a very happy with my purchase and would buy it again.

If I'm playing an older game like cs, then definitely. I don't need g-sync and I don't really notice anything. But if I'm playing something newer, then I think I am able to notice a difference when my frame rates drop
