Video Description

When upgrading to a 4K 240Hz OLED, I was limited by what was in stock at the time. So I ended up with the LG 32GS95UE, which stands out due to being WOLED, vs QD-OLED and having a 1080p 480Hz mode. However it also has a matte finish. I've been using it for a month, and here are my thoughts.
