After five months of productivity use, they'd skip the MSI 274URDFW E16M: firmware makes SDR local dimming washed out, edges dim, and the stand wobbles.
“I would skip this monitor even though on paper it seems the most appealing out of all the monitors using this same panel - and it all comes down the MSI's firmware.”
Uses the MSI MPG E16M with a PS5 and two laptops; after an LG G2 OLED TV, the Mini-LED looks amazing with well-controlled blooming and a handy 1080p 320Hz dual mode.
“I think the Mini-LED approach is also amazing.”
Owns the MSI MPG E16M: not as good as a good OLED, but crisp text and no burn-in worry.
“I have one and its a good monitor. It does not beat a good OLED but you can use this one without fear of burnin and the text is crisp”
Bought the MSI MPG E16M for €390 and is happy with it on a PS5 and a MacBook Pro.
“Recently got the MSI UPG 27URDFW E16M for 390€ and am happy with it.”
Uses the MSI MPG E16M Mini-LED for PS5 and PC: HDR looks amazing with no flicker, blooming or black crush.
“I have the MPG version which is more premium tier. Used it for PS5 and PC, the HDR looks amazing”
Bought the MSI MPG E16M and it works great after switching the oversaturated default colour profile to Adobe RGB; the companion app doesn't work on Mac.
“I got the MSI MPGE16M and it works great.”
Owns the MSI MPG E16M on firmware 26 and is very happy with it, running local dimming off in SDR and using dual mode for competitive games.
“I have MSI MPG E16M with FW26”
The MPG 274URDFW E16M only matches the cheaper MAG's blacks at local dimming level 3, which turns greys brown, crushes blacks and shows visible zones following the mouse.
“Causes greys to become brown, the gamma curve becomes a bit weird, crushing of blacks, and just creates an unusable and unpleasant experience”
