Review Summary

This is a worthy upgrade to the PG279Q, my previous monitor. The 240Hz refresh rate is more functional, as it is an even multiple of 24, 30, and 60 FPS. It's sharper, has a more even backlight, more accurate color, finer color adjustment, and mine arrived with no dead pixels or other issues. While more difficult to evaluate subjectively, I also believe the response time and ghosting have meaningfully improved as well. This is a wide gamut display with great colors and color accuracy out of the box. It also includes an excellent sRGB emulation mode, which is necessary for accurate display of sRGB content. If you find that it looks to unsaturated in this mode, simply use the 6-axis saturation controls to punch up the colors to taste. Note that not all image and color adjustments are available in every picture/scene mode. In particular, the sRGB preset (which is a distinct feature from the sRGB emulation) cannot be adjusted at all and should be avoided.
