These Samsung OLEDs have dropped $50 a month for awhile now. Hard to tell if this is the floor or if it will hit $400-450 for Black Friday.

The silver border is fine, and the 2026 version's matte screen is good; despite the border, the price is fair. Ordered one, will be delivered next week.

I bought the 32" version a few weeks ago, and it makes me smile every time I turn it on.
[IMG]https://static.slickdealscdn.com/images/smilies/wink.gif[/IMG] In 40 years of gaming I've never seen a monitor that feels more like a window than a screen.

It's been dropping very consistently since it was release, though it's hard to imagine it going too much lower until competitors offer similar values. I bought this at a slightly higher price and they wouldn't honor the price match as the lower price was a "sale" price.

The monitor is functionally very good. The screen is great, with a peak nit of 1000 when the situation calls. Everything visual wise is outstanding. I understand that the matte panel is a turn off for some, but it presents no issue for me and I also see no purple blacks even playing games like Control and Phasmophobia that get crazy dark. The USB-C cable is also very neat as it lets my charge my work laptop and output to the monitor under one cable, which is not something I realized I wanted so much until I had it.

My complaints are very minor. The back of the panel does feel cheap and part of it goes in when I push cables in. I actually had to pop the panel out and I'm unsure if it came that way or if I pushed the panel in when I inserted the DP cable. I also can't get my headphone jack into the output on the back as I'm afraid of popping out the panel. I also don't think the stand is great but maybe I was spoiled by my LG's Ergo stand. The stand doesn't go very high but does the standard left/right, up/down tilt. My Ergo stand would also shift left or right which made it easy to adjust alongside other panels.

I got the 32" recently and I do not notice the "purple" blacks even in a well lit room. The matte coating is pretty good. Little bit heavy but once you start playing a game unless it's a pure white screen you don't notice the matte coating.

The stand and build quality, specifically the back are a little cheap but can be fixed with a monitor arm. Cables are actually decent but short. And I wish it had a kvm.

All in all very beautiful picture with minor complains that have nothing to do with how it looks while gaming.

One of the reasons for these deep discounts is that these are the old generation panels. Still good, but the newer generation finally fixed age-old issues that have plagued OLEDs since early generations. For that and many other reasons, I expect these will keep dropping in price.

I have their 32" version which I got a week ago. I would definitely pull the trigger for a 27" at $500. I don't think they will be going lower for a while. If anything maybe $479 for black Friday but that's not a huge difference.
Definitely a top contender in Monitors. I like that it can charge my laptop via USB super fast.

Are you sure about this? This is the latest 4th Generation Penta Tandem QD-OLED panel.
