ZubasaAs for the Freesync /144hz issue, try updating the firmware if you haven't already. It helped for me.
Edit: The latest 1023 firmware is only on the Korean website.
Yeah I was gonna say I'm on later Firmware than what's available(1020)

BArmsYawn, bring on the 4K 32" 144hz already.
Seriously? I suppose it is just personal preference but personally I’d rather have a slightly lower resolution and a higher refresh rate, personally the faster refresh rate makes it seem smoother and faster, also 5120x1440 actually has a similar amount of pixels to 3840x2160 (7,372,800 vs 8,294,400)
INSTG8RI can’t argue I’m very disappointed in my “QLED“ CGH70 VA the edge bleed is embarrassing.
I do also agree but I wouldn’t say it’s too bad, it’s only noticeable on a black background, I see it on my father’s LU28H750UQUXEN

Vayra86Its not okay given the wild claims of what QLED should represent. Its just another VA - that is what Im saying - and its certainly not a fantastic sort of VA at that.
So don't call it okay, is all I'm saying. You don't have to justify your purchase. ;)

R0H1TQLED is a whole of marketing for not a lot of difference in image quality, go OLED or go home I'd say. Anything with the name "quantum" in it seems to sell heaps these days :shadedshu:
I dont know. I saw QLEDs vs OLED vs just LED (LED backlit LCD) and difference between QLED vs OLED wasnt groundbreaking while difference between QLED/OLED vs LED was. Samsung solution is paying a bit extra to get a lot more vs paying a lot more in OLED to get tiny bit extra over QLED. Also unlike OLED, QLED should die a lot later.

As for "I saw" means in this case literally saw on my own eyes.
