Just found this monitor, don't know how old it is or if it's brand new, but spec wise it looks perfect! Any thoughts?

It's brand new, they announced it at CES in January this year.

I thought the price would be higher actually think that's quite competitive

Samsung is releasing two ultrawide QD-OLED gaming monitors in 2023

These will be a bit brighter than most other OLED monitors.

Thanks for the info Spyder, well damn I'm more interested now, seems to be in a really good position, I love the size too, the G9 is way too big for my liking. Price is a little on the high side, just trying to determine if it's maybe better than the alienware..

I saw t online for £900

Isn't this Samsung's own version of the Alienware QD-OLED?

I quite like the less 'gamer-focused' aesthetic too, but wouldn't pay £300 more for it than I paid for the Alienware.

Seems to be, it's the same panel. The only thing I can find that's different is this doesn't have a fan, so it's quieter than the alienware, not sure thats worth the price difference >.<
