Our Verdict
MSI MPG 321URX QD-OLED
Samsung Odyssey OLED G80SD S32DG80
The Samsung Odyssey OLED G8/G80SD S32DG80 and the MSI MPG 321URX QD-OLED are 32-inch 4k @ 240Hz QD-OLED monitors. The MSI is the better option if USB connectivity is important to you, as it delivers 90W of power over USB-C and has a KVM switch. However, the Samsung is a better choice if you plan to use the monitor as a TV, as it has a remote and integrated apps like Netflix. You may also prefer the Samsung if you're in a room with a lot of ambient light, as it has a matte screen, and deep blacks look less purple when there's a lot of ambient light shining on the screen.

I hope signal lost will disappear (power could be related)
//
edit:
looks like, switched HDR ON/OFF and DSR too, no signal lost :p
OKay, so, if i understand, i use:
sRGB for SDR games and tweak others settings (profile1 save/load).
DCI-P3 for HDR games and tweak others settings (profile2 save/load).
Thanks a thousand for the answer, i’m good.
Also, TFT Central did found same about Lum+RVB, at -1+1 diff, so i think it’s near perfect.
Since first testing, if this settings “recommandations” changed… please edit (if forgotten) :
*Color Accuracy (Post-Calibration) *
Contrast * *60**
RGB * *98-93-79**
Brightness * *46**
//
Because i base my settings on it, yeah yeah ( @all) whatever you say/think, i’m not of the ones that will DIY.
And the heatsink is not of much help if i understand !?
I assume people seeing that things have units that displays like that.
That’s good, but if you could update it to 103 then 104 and just try to see and report if you can spot difference by your own eyes it could be a good idea !..
Here 2021-1-28

I’ll receive it tomorrow.
EDIT:
I received it yesterday.
HDMI gives 8bit only choice in NVPanel, DP adds 10bit, NVPanel enables freesync but monitor menu has no option to switch ON-OFF, or from service menu.
HDMI renders image in restricted range, no matter setting in NVPanel or monitor menu (it has: auto, 16-255, and 0-255 choices in menu, set full 0-255 image will have a lighty overhaul render).
GREAT monitor, FW date 2021-1-28 v007.

592 - same EU alt https://www.lcd-compare.com/index.php?action=compare&SAMU32J592=on&SAMU32J592UQR=on
So, if i see UQU not perfecly well built, i can return Amazon and ask exchange for UQR.
But what to epect from a 2018’s 2021 refreshed model, except it’s less luck too be a refurbished part ;)
I don’t understand, in france it’s 592 (same manual) and Samsung’s site notes Flicker Free Yes, is there a chance it’s updated since 2018 ?

I could, if ever iknew what it is (a link as well) !?
Perhaps is it just : https://eu.aoc.com/en/gaming/products/monitors/ag275qzn
Please review AG275QZN it’s AOC’s Agon, i have it and it’s near all better than this one, i’d like to see it tested here, thanks.
