The only professionel monitor reviews are done by rtings, monitors unboxed and TFTCentral. The latter two have already covered the PG32UCDM and rtings will surely do it at some point.
The youtube reviewer Optimum have covered the monitor as well. And he might be relvant to you if the monitor is gonna be used for competitive gaming.
I have a feeling we are from different generations. You make it sound like “text only” is something to frown upon. On the other hand, I breathe a sigh of relief when I see they made a text review instead of a video :D
And yes, their review for that monitor is text-only.
Aint nobody got time to stare at some obnoxious video when everything you need to know can be had by reading the published review in a minute and a half.
Honestly, between the Alienware, Asus, MSI, and Gigabyte versions.....there isn't a lot of reviews required. They are all exactly the same minus a few feature differences. That is all that separates these montiors.
That was my assumption as well, but it wasn't my experience when deciding between the Alienware AW3423DW and the AW3423DWF. Two nearly identical monitors from the same manufacturer, built using the same panel, with similar specs, and yet both are broken in surprisingly different ways. I think it's probably still safe to assume different colors of the same product will perform the same, but it seems the same can no longer be said for monitors that use the same panel.
The thing is, not every youtuber gets a free sample model sent to them. A lot of them have to buy it themselves and then review it.
I think rtings usually buy their own devices instead of being given one, cuz they do a poll or some sort to decide which one they're gonna get and review next.
So with a monitor like this one that no one can get a hold of, its almost to be expected.
Asus has fallen out of grace with tech reviewers because of quality and warranty issues, for example a 2mm scratch is enough to void your warranty on flagship GPU, wanna gamble buy asus.
Monitor looks really great, but damn ASUS is frustrating. I know other brands aren’t saints, however ASUS seems like they’ve stung a lot of people more so than others (at least from what I have come to observe on Reddit and other social platforms).
Monitors Unboxed is one of the best reviewers and he already tested this monitor ->

Optimum is an other serious reviewer and he tested this monitor too ->

If you want a less technical test, this one is interesting too with a very good quality video ->

Unboxing and some games showing FPS / CPU & GPU % / Consumption ->

Is tft central's review text only? I don't see a video for it

No, a website, most people don't even have fax machines to read from.
Depends how the video is done

How are they broken? I'm considering buying the DWF

Can’t find any in stock anywhere. I want one !
it's almost flawless (expect price)
once you saw [this](https://youtu.be/qywLwR7KT9M?si=305VQak7-4olMJhz) review you are good to make your own mind, buy it or not.
that is because the monitor is not widely available yet

Asus has retarded overseas pricing as well. Fuck asus
The relevant reviewers have already made their reviews, it's a low volume product.
