WEBVTT

00:00:00.060 --> 00:00:07.020
how much are you willing to pay for something to be Porsche designed well

00:00:04.020 --> 00:00:09.120
we've got the pd32m which is really by

00:00:07.020 --> 00:00:16.139
aegon by AOC but it's got the Porsche logo on it it's a mini LED 4K 32 inch

00:00:12.740 --> 00:00:17.580
144 Hertz refresh rate display seems

00:00:16.139 --> 00:00:23.100
pretty good but you know we won't know until we turn it on I like their

00:00:20.160 --> 00:00:28.080
packaging it's robust this might be one of those ones where

00:00:24.539 --> 00:00:30.119
it's worth it to open the bottom too

00:00:28.080 --> 00:00:35.100
it's so tightly packed that there's like a vacuum seal

00:00:31.859 --> 00:00:36.420
oh my God okay you're paying three or

00:00:35.100 --> 00:00:42.360
four hundred dollars for packaging I guess I will say this is probably not

00:00:40.140 --> 00:00:46.140
the most eco-friendly packaging but some of the nicest and most robust packaging

00:00:44.520 --> 00:00:49.500
I've seen for a monitor if they're not going with something more eco-friendly

00:00:47.520 --> 00:00:53.940
like paper cardboard whatever I at least prefer when they use this kind of foam

00:00:51.420 --> 00:00:58.739
rather than that crappy white styrofoam that just flakes off and gets everywhere

00:00:55.500 --> 00:01:01.620
we got this box it says Porsche Design

00:00:58.739 --> 00:01:05.720
is it Porsche is it Porsche Porsche is it porch is it Porsche I think it's

00:01:03.600 --> 00:01:10.140
Porsche but okay so cool power brick I'm not a fan I

00:01:08.640 --> 00:01:13.619
prefer I'm okay with like a thick monitor if it means that I don't have

00:01:11.880 --> 00:01:18.840
this giant ass power brick laying down on the ground there's a cool USB key why

00:01:16.740 --> 00:01:24.840
is this here I am not sure looks pretty says Porsche Design on it it also got

00:01:20.939 --> 00:01:27.060
power cable to match our brick wow is

00:01:24.840 --> 00:01:30.960
this a headphone extension I uh I genuinely don't know if this is just

00:01:28.380 --> 00:01:34.259
like an aux cable but it's here this is their little controller so you can

00:01:32.220 --> 00:01:37.920
control the OSD I'm guessing the on-screen display menus with this guy I

00:01:36.479 --> 00:01:41.939
think parts of it are metal although I'm not sure the only kind of major downside

00:01:39.960 --> 00:01:46.259
is that it uses the only kind of major downside is that it uses AAA batteries I

00:01:44.460 --> 00:01:49.619
really wish it was rechargeable or just plugged in honestly I would be okay with

00:01:47.880 --> 00:01:54.479
the cable but yeah it's definitely like metal or something HDMI ultra high speed

00:01:52.439 --> 00:01:59.159
certified so what does that mean that is 2.1 uh yes because it says 8K on the

00:01:57.180 --> 00:02:05.159
cable it's got a DisplayPort cable and then a USBC to USB a pretty

00:02:02.640 --> 00:02:08.520
wild it looks like the stand is all in the central piece here so I'm going to

00:02:07.079 --> 00:02:13.680
take that off yeah I don't know what we'll do with this after it's honestly a

00:02:10.920 --> 00:02:18.480
pretty high end it's mini LED and it can do I think 1152 dimming zones which is

00:02:16.500 --> 00:02:22.980
pretty decent for a panel this size it's not going to beat OLED where every pixel

00:02:20.220 --> 00:02:27.180
is a Zone I was almost ready bill I was so close to Jerry rigging everything oh

00:02:25.860 --> 00:02:31.500
look at that it's got a little symbol there is that the Porsche logo it's not

00:02:29.160 --> 00:02:36.480
I'm I'm kidding it's definitely not I have no idea but yeah we're gonna do the

00:02:33.900 --> 00:02:40.620
classic uh move the foam click in the stand this one actually comes fully

00:02:37.980 --> 00:02:45.420
assembled it's a single piece which is actually really nice well no okay sorry

00:02:42.900 --> 00:02:50.099
it's not fully fully single there's like some there's a gap here so this is

00:02:46.980 --> 00:02:51.959
joined together I do already really dig

00:02:50.099 --> 00:02:56.280
the design of the stand but let's plug it in looks like it's just standard Visa

00:02:54.780 --> 00:03:01.280
100 by 100 board game wow this is heavy get off of

00:02:58.980 --> 00:03:01.280
here phone

00:03:03.599 --> 00:03:10.500
cool one thing that I would like when you're spending this much money is uh

00:03:07.800 --> 00:03:14.519
often you'll get a on top beneath this foam you'll get like a really thin

00:03:12.480 --> 00:03:17.819
single sheet that covers the panel itself maybe they feel like they don't

00:03:16.200 --> 00:03:22.019
need it because this packaging is so good that's fair I guess so whatever

00:03:20.280 --> 00:03:25.500
otherwise though it looks like it is what it is it's a 32 inch panel the

00:03:24.060 --> 00:03:29.159
stand has a bunch of movement to it which is always wanted you can go

00:03:27.300 --> 00:03:33.120
vertical if you really want to and I think you can do it yeah you can go both

00:03:30.840 --> 00:03:36.900
ways which is always nice it doesn't make a big difference you can just flip

00:03:34.920 --> 00:03:41.879
portrait mode to suit your needs but you know it's kind of nice when you have options like this maybe you want to have

00:03:39.659 --> 00:03:45.780
your access to your i o on this side instead of on this side and then you

00:03:43.319 --> 00:03:50.459
just rotate it the other way I have no idea why you would want this panel for

00:03:48.420 --> 00:03:54.840
vertical it seems like a waste your vertical display is usually like code or

00:03:52.860 --> 00:03:58.019
Discord or something like that it's not your main gaming display and there's

00:03:56.340 --> 00:04:01.920
also height adjustment which is actually quite a bit

00:04:00.480 --> 00:04:06.480
that's not bad I mean that's pretty standard don't get me wrong but they could have gone with like half of this

00:04:04.680 --> 00:04:09.959
and just set a tight adjustable and I would have been pretty happy let me peel

00:04:08.040 --> 00:04:14.700
this weird tape off I don't know why this is here does this come out it says

00:04:11.819 --> 00:04:18.419
headphones click it ah headphone hanger pretty nifty I actually really like this

00:04:16.380 --> 00:04:21.600
design too you know like as as much as I think that this is uh gonna cost an ARM

00:04:20.220 --> 00:04:25.139
and a leg and I don't really want to buy it I can appreciate small stuff like

00:04:23.699 --> 00:04:29.580
this like I think this looks a lot cleaner and just better than when you've

00:04:27.780 --> 00:04:35.180
got those ones that like fold out you get two of them

00:04:30.919 --> 00:04:35.180
oh yeah it's also metal

00:04:35.820 --> 00:04:42.240
aside from this weird logo I haven't figured out yet maybe it's the aegon logo I'm not sure uh we've got a

00:04:40.860 --> 00:04:46.199
navigation nipple and a power button

00:04:43.919 --> 00:04:52.199
which is always great that's oh PD

00:04:48.500 --> 00:04:55.259
wow Porsche Design yeah okay I'm just

00:04:52.199 --> 00:04:58.020
dumb P and D so for Porsche Design yeah

00:04:55.259 --> 00:05:04.259
there's a mic Jack headphone jack USBC uh USB Upstream USB actually four USB

00:05:02.040 --> 00:05:09.479
ports which is great on this side we've got power uh DisplayPort HDMI probably

00:05:07.199 --> 00:05:16.320
2.1 considering it came with a 2.1 cable and it's a 4K High refresh rate display

00:05:11.300 --> 00:05:19.080
and then a PC mic cable oh that's cool

00:05:16.320 --> 00:05:22.860
okay so it looks like what you can do is they give you this cable so that you can

00:05:20.699 --> 00:05:26.940
uh along with like your keyboard and mouse and whatever else you're going to

00:05:24.000 --> 00:05:31.560
plug into the USB you can plug in your mic to the Monitor and then run your

00:05:29.759 --> 00:05:35.220
monitor to your computer which is great I don't think I've ever seen this that's

00:05:33.120 --> 00:05:39.600
really cool there's also something on the bottom of the stand here and it's a

00:05:37.440 --> 00:05:43.979
little like adjustment gear but I can't adjust it at all I don't know what that

00:05:42.419 --> 00:05:48.240
does I don't know if it changes resistance or

00:05:46.020 --> 00:05:51.060
anything I don't feel it changing anything but yeah there's some little

00:05:49.620 --> 00:05:55.560
gear down here we can figure that out later we'll let you know as for cable

00:05:52.860 --> 00:06:00.000
management you're honestly not getting a ton unless this back pops off

00:05:58.440 --> 00:06:04.440
I don't think it does um yeah you basically just go out here

00:06:01.680 --> 00:06:08.460
and up through here it's okay it'll work I'm just surprised that for a company

00:06:06.960 --> 00:06:11.880
like Porsche that wants to do something that's like elegant and sporty they

00:06:10.380 --> 00:06:16.500
don't have a better cable management system I do still really like the stand

00:06:14.699 --> 00:06:20.280
looks like we've got our speakers right here there's a pair of eight watt

00:06:18.060 --> 00:06:23.819
speakers in this bad boy and uh this is actually pretty good construction so I'm

00:06:22.500 --> 00:06:27.720
really curious to see how they sound we're gonna power this bad boy up and

00:06:26.100 --> 00:06:31.860
listen to some crab Rave and play some games and stuff but not before a word

00:06:29.220 --> 00:06:35.639

00:06:56.220 --> 00:07:03.419
today oh they got a little light down there

00:07:00.419 --> 00:07:03.419
hahaha

00:07:04.080 --> 00:07:09.960
it reminds me of like the PlayStation one like sound it doesn't it doesn't

00:07:07.740 --> 00:07:13.400
sound too much like it just the overall I don't like it

00:07:18.199 --> 00:07:26.039
HDMI so it automatically switched for me which is great okay we got HDR enabled

00:07:23.400 --> 00:07:30.479
we have 1152 dimming zones in this bad boy which it's not going to beat OLED

00:07:27.840 --> 00:07:36.900
don't get me wrong but for a screen this size that's pretty good A lot of 55 65

00:07:33.599 --> 00:07:38.639
inch TVs on the mid-range to higher end

00:07:36.900 --> 00:07:44.340
are about that many dimming zones for mini LED right now anyway we're running

00:07:40.380 --> 00:07:46.919
at 4K we've got 10 bit color 16 it says

00:07:44.340 --> 00:07:51.419
Peak brightness 1600 nits I don't know how true that is I think they have rated

00:07:48.780 --> 00:07:56.880
it for about 1400 either way whatever we don't want 60 hertz we want all can can

00:07:53.759 --> 00:07:59.520
HDMI 2.1 only do 4K 120. I thought it

00:07:56.880 --> 00:08:05.599
could do 4K 144. yeah I want to put the DisplayPort cable on just in case whoa

00:08:02.819 --> 00:08:10.020
this is a weirdo SD what the hell

00:08:07.639 --> 00:08:13.620
I okay um I actually really like this I just

00:08:11.580 --> 00:08:16.560
don't like how like garbagey the text looks I don't know if you can make that

00:08:14.880 --> 00:08:20.940
out on camera but it does not look good it looks like it was blown up and not

00:08:18.479 --> 00:08:25.080
rasterized but the overall like layout and design is actually really cool I

00:08:23.099 --> 00:08:28.740
really love it what does OSD setup do okay it brings me to something more

00:08:26.520 --> 00:08:31.620
regular USB selection okay I don't want the oh no I definitely don't want to

00:08:30.120 --> 00:08:37.620
change the language sure what's an extra input Select Auto I want to use the

00:08:34.620 --> 00:08:40.440
DisplayPort okay we got 144 Hertz now

00:08:37.620 --> 00:08:43.200
with our DisplayPort cable all right what is light effects are this is there

00:08:42.120 --> 00:08:48.720
RGB what the f really changing may increase

00:08:45.959 --> 00:08:53.160
power consumption yes there's a there yeah so there's this

00:08:50.640 --> 00:08:57.420
light on the bottom here oh is that what the Yeah

00:08:55.019 --> 00:09:02.160
yeah okay okay pretty sweet you know that uh weird thing I found on the

00:08:59.580 --> 00:09:07.920
bottom of the stand before it changes the logo that displays

00:09:06.000 --> 00:09:11.760
I don't know it's pretty cool I I wish you could turn it off but it said

00:09:09.540 --> 00:09:17.580
rainbow breathing so is there like RGB on the what

00:09:14.580 --> 00:09:17.580
foreign

00:09:19.519 --> 00:09:27.540
look at this it's in the speaker and it's in this top

00:09:25.440 --> 00:09:30.480
bar here and I don't know you know I kind of wish that this was a big

00:09:28.680 --> 00:09:33.839
diffusion bar like a white diffusion bar so that this was more prominent part of

00:09:32.220 --> 00:09:37.620
me kind of likes the like more muted aesthetic that they're going for with

00:09:35.279 --> 00:09:43.820
this either way I dig it I love the speaker part of it and that looks really

00:09:39.720 --> 00:09:43.820
cool he's got that 8K footage Maybe

00:09:44.580 --> 00:09:51.899
wow it is Bright Now to be fair I know we

00:09:49.440 --> 00:09:56.760
use YouTube and it's not the best in terms of showing off HDR content but

00:09:54.899 --> 00:10:00.779
honestly it's at least a good indicator of whether it's going to be terrible or

00:09:58.500 --> 00:10:05.100
not and as we've definitely seen on some other displays there's some judder going

00:10:02.580 --> 00:10:09.959
on which is more common in OLED than mini LED and that might be the player

00:10:07.200 --> 00:10:13.200
let's let's get out of 8K I went to 8K because I'm you know dumb and I wanted

00:10:11.459 --> 00:10:17.339
to go to 8K I bet you if we tried to stream it at 4K it probably fixes that

00:10:15.779 --> 00:10:20.339
right away that's still happening here I wonder if

00:10:19.260 --> 00:10:25.140
that's something I just haven't noticed before I wonder if it's YouTube Oh chromatic average that's one I don't

00:10:23.220 --> 00:10:29.420
like this is all good though Ultra ultra high very high retrace lighting High

00:10:27.060 --> 00:10:33.380
sure oh baby look at that

00:10:34.260 --> 00:10:41.399
it looks pretty good but I will tell you motion

00:10:38.160 --> 00:10:43.140
and stuff like this is totally fine it's

00:10:41.399 --> 00:10:46.800
actually really good I don't know if I'm just crazy but this

00:10:44.700 --> 00:10:50.880
is like really crisp whoa what's this guy doing

00:10:48.060 --> 00:10:54.779
what's going on gamer wow

00:10:52.200 --> 00:11:00.779
those speakers are pretty good I I 100 think that you could actually get away

00:10:56.700 --> 00:11:02.519
with not using computer speakers don't

00:11:00.779 --> 00:11:08.220
get me wrong a pair of like really good studio monitors or even just like

00:11:05.360 --> 00:11:11.839
off-the-shelf 100 computer speakers is probably better overall but

00:11:13.920 --> 00:11:16.820
that's pretty good

00:11:17.579 --> 00:11:23.820
it's not bad there's definitely a lack of bass like duh what are you expecting

00:11:22.740 --> 00:11:28.860
it's you know they're a couple eight watt speakers sitting in a monitor but

00:11:26.579 --> 00:11:33.000
this is totally acceptable cyberpunk looked real crisp even when I was like

00:11:31.140 --> 00:11:36.000
flicking around and stuff but even with the 4090 when we're set to ultra the

00:11:35.040 --> 00:11:42.060
frame rate probably wasn't anything crazy so I'd like to see something running at like 300 frames a second on a

00:11:39.480 --> 00:11:46.740
144hz display and I want to just flick around see how fast everything catches

00:11:44.100 --> 00:11:50.579
up so you can make those you know those crucial flicks with the op like I've

00:11:48.959 --> 00:11:54.720
seen better like obviously you know when you're going with uh OLED or something

00:11:52.500 --> 00:11:59.700
with those like just instant Lightning Fast pixel response times it's going to

00:11:56.399 --> 00:12:02.220
win but like oh that's terrible but like

00:11:59.700 --> 00:12:05.760
this is clear I turn and it's instant and even when you're just cruising

00:12:03.480 --> 00:12:09.720
around you can still make out the actual environment around you and everything

00:12:07.740 --> 00:12:13.320
it's it's pretty sweet I'm not gonna lie to you guys this is a fantastic monitor

00:12:11.579 --> 00:12:19.740
if you can get one on like a major deal go for it but the problem is it is 1800

00:12:16.500 --> 00:12:21.839
US Dollars and if you're Canadian uh

00:12:19.740 --> 00:12:29.240
it's even worse for some reason they're a site listed as 31 Canadian dollars

00:12:25.220 --> 00:12:32.760
I wish bye bye bye bye bye

00:12:29.240 --> 00:12:34.500
3100 Canadian dollars that is insane

00:12:32.760 --> 00:12:38.040
that is more than just going from USD to cat it's like a 20 to 30 percent

00:12:36.120 --> 00:12:42.360
difference whereas that is like not quite doubling but it is way more than

00:12:40.079 --> 00:12:46.139
30 percent I can't you can't justify that I mean the problem is you you've

00:12:44.459 --> 00:12:50.160
got either the cool to master Tempest which is a 20 it's a 27 inch screen and

00:12:48.360 --> 00:12:56.940
it's only got about 500 dimming zones but it's 800 bucks for 4K 120 or 144

00:12:54.839 --> 00:13:03.540
Hertz if that's not good enough for you you need the like 1000 dimming zones the

00:12:59.880 --> 00:13:05.940
Samsung Neo G7 has 1152 dimming zones

00:13:03.540 --> 00:13:11.760
and it's like thirteen hundred dollars so you can save 400 bucks by just going

00:13:08.700 --> 00:13:14.339
with Samsung instead of with uh Porsche

00:13:11.760 --> 00:13:20.279
Design now it's got a really nice stand and the speakers are pretty good for

00:13:18.000 --> 00:13:25.920
computer monitor speakers but I just don't think that that justifies 400 at

00:13:23.880 --> 00:13:30.839
least oh my God you could buy a whole other monitor for 400 bucks you can get

00:13:28.620 --> 00:13:34.500
a decent 1440p High refresh rate monitor for like four or five hundred dollars at

00:13:32.399 --> 00:13:38.880
least so I just can't recommend this thing I think it's sick if you ever get

00:13:36.720 --> 00:13:42.600
the opportunity to use it or it's a game on it like it's cool and it's good and

00:13:40.980 --> 00:13:48.300
you should totally try that that's that's the PD 32 um from Porsche Design

00:13:45.240 --> 00:13:51.240
and AOC aegon it's a really nice display

00:13:48.300 --> 00:13:53.760
it's just a bit too expensive there's a ShortCircuit if you want to check out

00:13:52.380 --> 00:13:57.480
other short circuits maybe check out The Cooler Master Tempest and see if that's

00:13:55.620 --> 00:14:04.040
the right one for you it's a hell of a lot cheaper a few less features but

00:14:00.240 --> 00:14:04.040
price is way more right than this thing
