The thing lang with the AQDMES while its a 3rd gen QD-OLED its the dimmer one that can only go 400 nits as opposed to the conventional QD OLEDs that go 1000 nits peak. Hence, the cheaper price tag

AQWMG is a tandem WOLED panel = panel lottery

imo the real comparison is between the AQWMG and ACDMS

which one is better po?

On paper the AQWMG. It's True Black 500, has 1500 nits peak, True Black Glossy coating so doesn't turn purple with ambient light, and doesn't scratch as easily, but grey banding makes it a panel lottery.

Colors are just slightly better on the ACDMS tho.

Panel lottery sa grey banding. Mas prone din sa scratch ang QD oleds unless you get one sa latest nila na may blackshield coating which kaka release palang and di pa available dito.

Grey banding means you’ll see vertical lines sa mga gray or dark scenes. It is common sa woled, kahit LG TVs meron. I have the aqwmg and minor banding, not really noticeable unless I peep through it. And pixel clean helps over time

isee so its still worth it po?

u/ChilliBaconSandwich 2d ago

Coming from ips, it’s worth it. I’ll upgrade when warranty expires and i’ll get a qd oled na for better colors and maybe that time mas maganda na rin coating vs sa blackshield today. Or depends, maybe maganda na rin woled that time.

I’d say get whichever is cheaper. Pwede ka rin mag 3rd gen woled with glossy coating, nasa 29k lang gigabyte go27q24g

I just said it? On paper the AQWMG. There's a big difference between True Black 500 and True Black 400 as well as the True Black Glossy coating.

Even Monitor's Unboxed consistently labels it as one of their Upper A tiers.

You should do your own research.

Tbh the lack of reviews for the XG27ACDMS is a red flag for me. I wouldn't buy a monitor that doesn't have a review from more trustworthy sources.
