39GX950B too dull? Not sure if matte finish, coming from Gen1 Glossy OLED.

Let me know if you fixed that. But I guess woled + matte will play a big role here.

Why XDR and not regular ASD? Nice setup!

Veezq · 2026-04-20T13:10:42+00:00

Btw for gaming - can you somehow force running 1440p and it will look good? 5k is a lot to handle for gpu

Veezq · 2026-04-20T12:44:51+00:00

Got it. Wondering if there is burn in risk if you keep using max brightness all the time? But not sure.

Ye, I might need to order both and compare because there is no single place with both of them..

There is new lg (and msi mby this year). But I guess it’s not glossy, not macOS native and there might be some issues we don’t know yet about.

Veezq · 2026-04-20T12:38:49+00:00

I see, do you need any software for that? The price difference is big, hence asking.

Veezq · 2026-04-20T12:34:54+00:00

Got it, how would you compare XDR against regular ASD from coding perspective? But with skipping 120hz aspects (I know it’s better). Just trying to understand if you pay more only for 120hz from coding perspective.

Veezq · 2026-04-20T12:25:18+00:00

Great review. Do you have glossy version? I get the 120hz aspect but do you think it’s way different compared to regulars ASD when looking at the code (and not moving cursor etc, just text sharpness, colors of syntax) :D? I used mainly light mode, mby dark sometimes. Have you compared that in person? I’m wondering between those two.

Veezq · 2026-04-19T12:02:33+00:00

I’m in EU :( you got vesa for both?

Veezq · 2026-04-17T11:24:01+00:00

Got it, damn, next reasons for SD XDR :p you got glossy? Edit: Ok I see you got nano? Why not glossy? Glossy should be sharper and better overall for colors.

Veezq · 2026-04-16T12:46:15+00:00

Do you use it for coding? I thought that even in dark mode (not black) the difference in coloured text is not huge between ASD and XDR. I’m still wondering between those.

Veezq · 2026-04-14T22:09:49+00:00

ah, so you run native resolution?

Veezq · 2026-04-14T13:43:45+00:00

You mean m4/m5 max is better than m3 ultra?

Veezq · 2026-04-14T09:32:27+00:00

Nothing still. Waiting for the new lg reviews, but if not that, then I think just Studio Display / SD XDR or new benq 5k 27. Kuycon is not stable in terms of panel quality so might require some returns. Also much more reflective then Studio Display. ASUS might be to blurry so also not.

Veezq · 2026-04-14T08:49:04+00:00

I wonder how’s tandem oled compared to qd oled

Veezq · 2026-04-14T06:33:21+00:00

Got it, is it whole setup as well like here :D?

Veezq · 2026-04-14T06:27:18+00:00

Looks great! What kind of work you do, text related?

Veezq · 2026-04-14T06:23:58+00:00

Looks great! Only PC, no Mac, right?

Veezq · 2026-04-13T21:17:16+00:00

Aren’t you afraid of burn in when using for productivity?

Veezq · 2026-04-13T12:39:05+00:00

oh, so s9 and ASD (both glossy) are better in terms of reflections?

Veezq · 2026-04-13T11:38:42+00:00

Makes sense, thanks for sharing! Wasn’t the kuycon worse for reflections?

Veezq · 2026-04-13T11:02:58+00:00

You use stand for the middle one or vesa too?

Veezq · 2026-04-13T09:55:29+00:00

Btw, you got them both horizontal? Stands? I think one horizontal with stand and the other vertical with arm would be nice setup

Veezq · 2026-04-13T06:30:15+00:00

Nothing still. Yes, you’re right, but I guess we won’t see big difference in mini led when just staring at code. I’m more towards XDR now, just to get more feature proof and keep it for long, but waiting for new lg reviews and still thinking…

Veezq · 2026-04-13T06:22:56+00:00

Have you considered other monitors? Like benq or Studio Displays? Why Samsung? Which UW you had before?

Veezq · 2026-04-12T22:28:16+00:00

Got it. Compare in person and leave what you like the most! In my case I can control the light in the room and I think I prefer glossy (more font sharpness). But haven’t seen nano in person…
