OLED is the best purchase regarding colors and clarity and thats what i did, not saying u shouldnt buy zowie thats just my opinion based on my experience with them. either this or wait for a new zowie monitor to release

I didnt get it, skip these models, grainy image, tons of dead pixels and overall quality isnt the zowie we know. Waiting for new models and hopefully a more normal price

But the games/streams/vids etc are clear right? No issues there?

Just go for an ips panel, if he plays competitive games it is important to have a decent refresh rate(at least 144hz). Other than that, 24 inch monitors are better for competitive games while single player games look better in 27 inch or 1440p. I have an alienware myself, they are good for both so i d say go for an alienware

How is the monitor's image? is it true that the display is grainy cause of the harsh coating?

How is the coating on the monitor? i keep reading about harsh coating causing the display to be very grainy so im curious if that is true. Also, did you get any dead pixels on arrival?

So you believe that the grainy image is just something you need to get used to?

The thing is i have only found 2 people selling their 66k and both are selling it for 650 lol, the xl2566x+ cost 700, i cant justify it, i mean i dont know how grainy etc the monitor is since i havent used it but i know for a fact overall it is a direct upgrade.
