Hey! Yes, we thought about it when we developed our current rolling shutter test. However, we felt that showing the angle of skew for rolling shutter was a more applicable test when it comes to real-life use. If you don’t mind sharing, I would be curious to understand why you prefer having the readout speed measured using a strobe light?

Thanks for the response. For me it’s about being able to compare “apples to apples.” If I know the sensor readout speed in milliseconds of other cameras you haven’t reviewed, or if the manufacturer releases them, or someone else tests them, etc. then I can make a comparison. If my only frame of reference is the video clips you’re shooting, then it becomes very difficult to relate it to cameras you haven’t reviewed or for example, if camera’s sensor speed changes based on the resolution or frame size being used.

As mentioned in the review, 1440p @ 120Hz works without any problem, but the TV is upscaling 1440p to 4k. In this case, it should do the same when sending the signal from a GPU and also work without any issue! :)

Great, thank you for the clarification.

You’re absolutely right, this is important information to have. We’ve started including it in our newer reviews even though it isn’t currently a part of our testing methodology. We’re also going to add this info in our next test bench update, so we’ll end up revisiting some older reviews and updating them as well. Thanks for the feedback! :)

Thank you, that is great information to have when considering a monitor.

I just purchased this monitor and can confirm that at 120Hz my nvidia control panel gives me the option of 10-bit color, but at 144 or 165 only 8-bit is shown as available. I noticed at 144hz my games looked bad- banding, posterization, and just very flat looking. I didn’t realize what the issue was until I dropped the refresh rate down and enabled 10-bit color. For this reason I will probably keep the monitor at 120Hz, but it’s not really clearly explained what the DP spec is, or the limitations of the higher refresh rates. I imagine some people would be disappointed if they only used 144 or 165 and saw how the colors looked even in normal SDR games.

Still very much broken, at this point it is fake 4k 120Hz to me as it appears they are doing something with line doubling. Sony now states its working as intended. lol. Yea no! LG doesn’t have problems with smeared text on the Windows desktop at 4K 120Hz. I doubt very much it will ever be fixed correctly at this point which is beyond a huge disappointment.

Ya, that’s super disappointing especially for PC use. Perhaps if enough people complain Sony will fix it…that assumes their hardware is capable of running it. Maybe it can work with certain features disabled, I don’t know but I’d guess it’s a bandwidth/processing power issue rather than just a bug. Hopefully it’s able to be corrected.

What’s the current state of this- still blurred/broken? Is there any word of them improving it or are they just “faking” 4k at 120?
