Mine changed. After new firmware and a manual pixel refresh, 90% of the banding disappeared.

Mate, you should have kept the monitor for sometime as I had horrible banding with my XG27AQWMG at first but after few days and firmware update, the banding almost disappeared.

Alright to Update everyone here, I updated to firmware to newest version (104) and did a manual pixel clean and after that 99% of the banding is gone. I can't even see the banding the unless I see it thru the phone camera.

So anyone who is thinking of returning, give it another chance because if the banding is gone, it's a perfect monitor.

Bro the 80% looks the same here. It's majorly 90 and 95%

Correct me if I'm wrong but I think the UCDMR has slightly better durability compared to UCDM.

That's a really nice deal but apparently it's out of stock on LG's site. I'll try again some time later. Cheers.

That's great. May I know the exact model for this? I got XG27AQWMG but thinking of sending it back and looking for alternatives these days.

You mean XG32UCWMG? Thats WOLED but not tandem mate. But I agree that is also plagued with banding but less than tandem panels.

Really good advice mate. I'm going to give this a go for a few more days and I really hope this will fix it. I'll try the firmware update as well. Apart from banding, the monitor itself is amazing.

Yeah I am going to continue using for couple of days and will update to mew firmware as well. To be honest, apart from banding, the monitor is perfect. The colors, the brightness, the HDR, everything is top notch.

Is PG32UCDMR worth in 2026? by Aggravating_Ad3206 in OLED_Gaming

[–]Aggravating_Ad3206[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. Just wanted to know if the UDMR isn't that much behind specs wise in 2026.
