The top priority of all small and medium-sized monitor brands is how high cost performance is recognized. In order to survive the competition, they must come up with a product that is cheaper than other products in the same class and does not lack any quality or function.
The survival power itself is different from that of large companies that do not care about cost performance at all, and thanks to this, consumers can experience products similar to those of large companies at a lower price.
Of course, even the excellent picture quality and proven functions of the premium model were not implemented by small and medium-sized monitor brands, but the lower-mid-level monitors have already made no significant difference in picture quality or function.
For that reason, many consumers are looking for small and medium-sized brand monitors with good cost performance. Here is one such product, which I would like to introduce today.
BitM Newsync X321QG 165 Curved Gaming HDR, which has a 32-inch screen that has become the standard for big screens, has QHD resolution, a high refresh rate of 165Hz, and even a curved display.
■ Add perfection to the lowest price, BitM Newsync X321QG 165 Curved Gaming HDR
The BitM brand has always led the lowest price market. Not all products were always the lowest price, but whenever a new product was introduced, it has been recognized as the cheapest product in the market where the product is put in, but with excellent picture quality and features.
Unlike other brands competing in the lowest price market, it did not neglect product verification through IT media, and continued to communicate with real users such as field tests. Thanks to this, it has grown into a brand that is recognized for its cost-effectiveness, and the trust that BitM’s products are reliable has been built up.
BitM’s Newsync X321QG 165 Curved Gaming HDR, which will be introduced today, reflects BitM’s unique strategy well.
Although it is not a specification that is in high demand, it is evaluated as having the lowest price and decent picture quality and functions in the 32-inch curved QHD gaming monitor market.
The first characteristic of the BitM Newsync X321QG 165 Curved Gaming HDR is in its design.
Anyway, the panel specifications, curvature, brightness, etc. are the same as other products, but the slim design consisting of a 5mm inner bezel and 3mm outer bezel is basic, and the completeness, finish, and poor stand problems commonly found in low-cost products cannot be found at all. there was no It is safe to say that there is almost no difference in design perfection even when compared with similar products from B or S.
It is basic to support the monitor without shaking even with a heavy stand, and it provides all the advanced functions such as tilt, elevation, and swivel position, angle, and direction adjustment.
A 75mm x 75mm standard VESA hole for monitor arm users is also provided, and OSD control is made easier and more convenient through a 4-way stick instead of multiple buttons. This is not the first time, but it is a method that was not used well in the lowest price products that had to press 5 or 6 buttons.
■ 165Hz gaming monitor, clearer with MPRT
As mentioned earlier, there is almost no difference in the panel specifications of similar products. So, in the functional part, we have to see whether the part they claim is properly implemented.
BitM Newsync X321QG 165 Curved Gaming HDR introduces that you can enjoy a high refresh rate of 165Hz on a screen with little afterimage. For this purpose, MPRT mode has been added, and by using this function, you can properly enjoy games that are sensitive to fast movement, such as FPS or sports games.
However, MPRT mode is not the default, and the user has to enter the OSD and activate it.
However, since the afterimage itself does not reduce sharply, the screen may feel a bit uncomfortable, but since the fast moving screen itself becomes clear, a positive effect can be expected in games that require precise control.
However, MPRT mode cannot be used together with G-Sync or Free-Sync, so the user has no choice but to choose either one. This limitation is a limitation of all monitors that support MPRT mode or similar functions, and there is no solution for the LCD series yet.
■ Curved curve optimized for single use and good picture quality
BitM Newsync X321QG 165 Curved Gaming HDR is curved. The curvature is 1500R, so it is much easier to adapt to than 1200R or 1000R. Products with a curvature of 1200 or 1000R have a lot of likes and dislikes for flat monitor users because they feel too curved and have a narrow field of view.
At least 34-inch monitors with ultra-wide ratios like 21:9 are quite wide, so I don’t think 1200R or 1000R is too much, but 16:9 monitors are not easy to adapt. BitM Newsync X321QG 165 Curved Gaming HDR is the most preferred 1500R, and its size is 32 inches, so it has the best conditions to experience the immersive feeling of a curved monitor.
BitM Newsync X321QG 165 Curved Gaming HDR’s picture quality is quite well matched to the basic picture level itself, so there is no need to adjust R, G, and B values accordingly. The screen mode with the brightest brightness was movie mode, which recorded 337.54 cd/m2, and it was confirmed that game was 293.95 cd/m2 and normal was 274.93 cd/m2.
The color reproduction power of BitM Newsync X321QG 165 Curved Gaming HDR is 87.6% based on sRGB and 92.3% of the total color gamut, so it is confirmed that it is not a wide color gamut product. .
As for the viewing angle, it is best to see the front from the center due to the characteristics of the curved model, and the closer it is, the more the VA panel characteristics have to be reflected. Anyway, there is no one to look at this size monitor from the side, and there is no problem with vertical viewing angles like TN, so you don’t have to worry too much about it.
■ Clipping-based HDR without blurring
To be honest, it is unreasonable to expect proper HDR from an inexpensive monitor centered on cost performance. In some cases, the screen brightness is less than 300 cd/m2, and there is no way that a monitor like this can properly reproduce an image exceeding 1000 cd/m2.
However, if the clipping phenomenon is minimized while maintaining the average brightness, the high contrast ratio of HDR can be preserved and the image can be reproduced to some extent.
The HDR function of BitM Newsync X321QG 165 curved gaming HDR is also tailored in this direction. By accepting some clipping of the highlights, but maintaining the average brightness. This allowed us to enjoy non-dark HDR images even in bright rooms, and also experienced quite good sharpness in games with adjustable brightness.
When using Windows 10 or 11, if you enable HDR mode, some low-cost monitors may show a hazy screen, but this problem was not found.
■ PIP and PBP and high-intensity LED lighting
BitM Newsync X321QG 165 Curved Gaming HDR supports PIP and PBP modes. Two DP 1.2 ports and one HDMI 2.0 port allow simultaneous screens in any combination you want. Most of the time this monitor will be used only for PC, so it won’t be used much, but it’s a pretty useful feature if you’re using both a PC and a console or if you’re connecting an OTT set-top.
This is because you can play while playing a console game by displaying the screen of a sports game that cannot be missed or watching a strategy video posted by someone.
BitM Newsync X321QG 165 Curved Gaming HDR also has an LED light in the back like other gaming monitors. There is nothing special about the function itself, and it is a method in which various colors are sequentially changed, but the amount of light is rather high.
The high-intensity LED light can serve as an indirect light that turns off the lights at night and reduces eye strain when playing games, but the BeatM Newsync X321QG 165 Curved Gaming HDR met that standard to some extent.
■ Lowest price and value for money.. BitM Newsync X321QG 165 Curved Gaming HDR
The biggest advantage of the BitM Newsync X321QG 165 Curved Gaming HDR is that it is the cheapest in its class.
It is not only the cheapest among 32-inch curved QHD 165Hz gaming monitors, but it can be purchased at less than half the price of company B’s products with only severe curvature and no difference in specifications.
Of course, this price difference would have been meaningless if there was a lack of functionality or a problem, but the BitM Newsync X321QG 165 Curved Gaming HDR faithfully implemented the suggested specifications and functions, and no problems were found.
Rather, the overall completeness and design of the product is higher than the existing low-priced products, so the satisfaction of actual buyers seems to be quite high.
