Alienware Monitor Power Save Mode

Great monitor, I have it setup with my iMac 5K as my proofing monitor. A couple of things to be aware of: 1. When you rotate to portrait mode you must switch first in the MacOS and then rotate and when going back to landscape mode you must change it first in MacOS. I thought the monitor automatically did this. 2. To rotate to portrait mode using the included stand, you have to tilt the monitor out and then rotate otherwise you will hit the corner. Its a little nerve racking. 3. I bought the ergotron LX monitor arm, make sure to get the tall pole otherwise if you only need the main arm and not the extension arm you will need to tilt it out the same way with the built in monitor stand. 4. The front power switch is just like a sleep mode, the iMac will think the monitor is still on and display things on it. If you use the power switch under the monitor by the power plug, the iMac will see it as no monitor attached. I am so glad I got this monitor. You can see a big difference between this and the iMac 5K Retina.

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) I was thinking of getting myself an Ultra wide gaming monitor but always thought the 49" G9 was too big that's when Samsung released this with the same panel as in the Alienware OLED monitor that is getting rave reviews. The difference between this and the Alienware monitor is that this one comes with Samsung OS and is easy to connect to my other Samsung ecosystem products. This monitor is perfect to run Dex on or even can be used as a TV. The OLED panel is brilliant and the movies and games pop on it.

This arm is amazing! I purchased two different ones before this to support my new Alienware OLED monitor. Those arms could not support the weight even on the highest tension. This arm at half tension easily supports the weight. You can tell this one is made with a higher quality than any off brand product.

Comparing this to the Alienware AW3225QF (which I tested for 3 weeks before getting this monitor), I find the colors are effectively the same after you find the right settings that appeal to you. I initially had some text clarity issues, but this was solved by running the monitor at 240Hz. For whatever reason, a bunch of features are turned off by default, so you need to turn them on (e.g. OLEDcare, VRR, CEC). Another thing to keep in mind - when you switch to full-screen and back, the monitor will black out for a few seconds. This is normal and a function of Nvidia drivers, not the monitor. Another caveat, as this is OLED, you cannot calibrate this with standard monitor calibration gear (think SpyderX). After turning everything on and playing with all the presets, I was able to find the ones I liked for different media. The monitor is amazing. Great color, perfect blacks, I almost think it's blacker than my black monitor bezels... 240Hz is buttery.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] 34” G5 Odyssey Gaming Monitor replaced my Alienware 29 inch monitor, and I'm so glad that I did. The 34" G5 Odyssey has Deeper blacks and crisper picture than my old Alienware 25 gaming monitor. My games have never looked so good as on the 34"G5.

Absolutely stunning monitor, coming from an Alienware ultra wide 3440 to 4k QD-Oled. What a difference

Excellent Monitor. I upgraded from an Alienware 240hz 1080p to this one. Got recommended by Hardware Unbox on YouTube. This is my first 1440p monitor. Resolution is crisp. no dead pixels. and gotta love that IPS color quality. Great so far. Would recommend.

Power and longevity seems fine to me! Save some money and use it!

I use for my d800 .It is very esay to use and have power off switch to save battery.

Nice to have a battery with an on/off switch, save power in stand-by.
