Amazing display paired with my Xbox Series X – Bought this on a recent sale from PLE for $1099. Currently for the price, I don't think there's better picture quality available for a monitor/TV. OLED is amazing for gaming. Highly recommend.

Purchased in at PLE Computers for $1,099.

Beautiful display when it works – info: 3 days before a major issues requiring to be send back. Was bought on sale for 1100 aud. Used for almost a week. The good: The display is absolutely gorgeous but as an oled panel you'll have to be aware of the risks involved. The risk of burn in is there especially using it as monitor. It does lack features of a TV but does gain a display port and KVM switch in it's place. The HDR experience is amazing and really makes you question other panels that are not OLED. Display is sharp and beautifully made with good build quality. Supports VESA 400mm. Easy OSD menu with a remote or a joystick knob at the bottom. Can be found cheaper than the LG C1 48" that uses the same panel. It comes with 3 years warranty that other OLED TV's come only with 1 year

The bad: as for my experience , 3 days in i had major fault causing a verticle red line to appear with artifacts close to the line. Not sure if this is wide spread but this has been my experience. Large white backgrounds make the display automatically dim in brightness. Peak brightness is not very high either but since the panel is OLED the HDR still looks so much better than anything else. There has been a firmware update and appears to fix the warning to turn off panel, but I didn't experience this issue. Unfortunately I wasn't able to get the KVM switch working between my laptop and desktop, but that could of been me with the lack of use. It is quite a big display 43" might be better for people but there is no OLED at decent price at that range.

Conclusion: A beutiful display/TV if you can find one on sale (and it works) don't hold back. You'd have to pay a lot more for something coming even close to this.

Purchased in at Centrecom for $1,100.

Poor Quality Monitor with a Software bug – Originally bought Aorous FV43U monitor which was found to be dead on arrival. Return the monitor and bought FO48U which is supposed to be a better OLED monitor by spec. However, the monitor constantly reminds users to turn off the monitor to protect the panel. This message is supposed to be a reminder for several hours of operation but it keeps popping up even when the PC is just turn on. There is no way to overcome this issue and Gigabyte has not replied to technical support. Stay away from this monitor and lack of support means you are taking a chance with their product.
