4k does not dissapoint on this title. You have to be careful to research which titles actually benefit from being UHD and this one was fantastic.

Lighthearted and fun. This was a great movie, but I only wish we could get 3d releases regularly in the US

Perfect Monitor For Me
By WhiplashPants
I have tried EVERYTHING on my desk and so far this monitor ticks all of the boxes for me. The image quality is as good as anything out there (I replaced a Sony A90K with this and I kicked the Alienware QD-OLED upstairs to my daughter, so I've got plenty of great panels to compare to). The low profile stand puts the screen at a perfect height for where I sit and means I don't need to use a mount. I love that it's a monitor and not a TV; DisplayPort is a big deal to me, and being able to wake with my PC rather than having to power on with a remote is huge.
The matte coating is the real winner for my setup though. I have a large window behind me and reflections are killer. This monitor has absolutely ZERO issues handling that, and then at night it's even better. I wasn't sure what I would think about an OLED with a matte coating but it just feels right. It's a strange analogy, but the best thing I can say is it's like having a really large, really clear computer monitor. That's the effect of the anti-glare coating.
For gaming, it's fast, responsive and handles motion as well as anything I've ever used. Maybe it's just to my eyes but I feel like the anti-glare combined with the OLED means I see small fine details I wasn't seeing on other panels. There isn't a single game I've tried that hasn't made me say "wow" so far. I did override Windows color settings to make sure that Nvidia 10-bit was on and I checked "reference mode" as well. That seems to be getting me the best results.
I'm not using the speakers, but I did for a day or so, and they really aren't half bad, especially compared to what's out there.
A few things I would change: the auto-brightness limiter is indeed aggressive, and would bug me if I did more content creation and/or tried to use this screen for work, but if the trade off is the monitor stays healthy, I can live with it. The headphone jack on the front is a great idea. The fact that I can see the port glinting out of the corner of my eye is not. It could be blended with the border of the monitor better. Lastly, the "remote" is a good idea and works as intended, but I wish it were just a tad smaller sitting on my desk.
Overall, extremely pleased with my purchase, especially at this price.

Size issues?
October 2, 2022
Whiplash - I saw that you have a Secret Lab desk (I do as well), and I'm curious what you think of the size of the 48inch monitor relative to the desk? I have a 38 inch UW right now, but have been thinking of upgrading to this screen. Just a little concerned that it may be too big for FPS gaming at the sitting distance of the desk. Thanks!

Go solo in an epic race against time stuffed with danger and peril, or create teams of two to four adventurers for fun-packed party play as you work together to overcome nefarious tasks however you can imagine.
 

Can this be played online with other PS4 players and/or platforms?

I’m not sure if cross platform is going to be supported. I would imagine so, but currently online co-op isn’t even an option. The developer said they’re releasing it by the end of 2020. Me and a friend tried to play the other day and found this out :(
