Advice needed for new monitor.

I'm in the need for a new monitor, i actually like my current Iiyama G-Master GB3271QSU-B1, but from my experience the build quality isn't great, had to return it like 5 times before i finally got one without dead pixels and even the one i kept has a dead sub-pixel in the lower right side and now only slightly more than a year later the screen shows a pretty big smudge like artifact on the left side of the screen, which is the reason for me looking for something new.

Recently bought a new LG 32GS85Q-B because it got recommended a lot by websites, but i had to return it because it gave me some serious headaches/eyestrain. I've read some comments saying that it's the Nano IPS panel which is the reason, some others saying some people just seem to be more sensitive in general to higher color gamut's, higher saturation, etc.

Anyway i'm back to square one now and was wondering if any of you have any good suggestions for a QHD IPS monitor. Looking for 31.5/32 inch (tried going back to 27 once, but no go for me), flat screen and preferably height adjustable stand. Visually i like my current monitor, so i don't need exceptional color depth/range (current monitor is 16.7 million), especially if that was indeed (partly) the cause for my headaches with the on paper superior LG monitor. Brands don't really matter to me, so long as build quality is good seeing dead/faulty pixels is a big con for me.

Budget up to around 600 euros, though lower priced monitors are also fine so long as the build quality is good, the LG i returned was great if it wasn't for the headaches/eye strain, had no dead pixels and only cost me 300 euros. Resolution i'm looking for is QHD/2560x1440.

newer monitors should have no dead pixels
32in 1440p ips should not have any

location/currency and budget?

start here, and select country on top right

Steer clear of liyama

Yeah, i like my current Iiyama for the screen/colours itself fine (after settings tinkering), but the fact i had to return it 5 times when i purchased it before i got a non-dead pixel one and now less than 2 years after purchase i already have to look for a new monitor says something about quality control over there i think.

They resell bargain bucket dirt from China they had a good name from making very good CRTs. Kitguru recently caught them with a new monitor 4k 144hz with some awful response times a totally fake 144hz.

Adjusting monitor, windows, gpu settings fix the old monitor LG 32GS85Q-B?

Anyways the rating for the monitor look dodgy on amazon and some other sites (not many reviews there). Haven't really looked but it might be the features vs the image.

Go to best buy, etc... and look at monitors then buy online (amazon, etc....) or there?

Return policies may vary? Like dead/stuck pixel , etc... returns. Some places require x number of dead pixels vs just one.

With that budget, you might consider a 34" QD-OLED ultrawide monitor instead. I just bought the Dell AW3425DW (34", 3440x1440, 240 Hz refresh rate) for the equivalent of 600 euros. The only negative is that it's a bit shorter than a 32" monitor, so that may in fact be a deal-breaker for you. I found it easy enough to adjust to despite swearing that I was never going back from 32". There are 38" ulrawide QD-OLED monitors, which may be more to your liking, but they sacrifice pixel density and are more expensive.

Another option that admittedly breaks your requirements a bit is a 32" 4k mini-LED monitor. These are hard to drive, but they are very nice. I have the Acer XV275K P3, which is a 27" model with HDR1000. A 32" model would have slightly worse pixel density than mine, but the pixel density would be light years better than a 32" 2560x1440 monitor. If you're prone to eyestrain, it's quite nice to have a high pixel density. The future is micro-LED, but that means that mini-LED is getting more affordable.

I don't think many people are making brand new 32" 2560x1440 monitors any more. If you're dead set on this, perhaps consider the Samsung Odyssey G65B: review.[www.rtings.com] Samsung is a very good brand. I've never regretted going with Samsung, but you pay a little extra.

Still looking around, so thank you for the detailed answer. In regards to the eyestrain, that LG was the first time i've ever really had headaches/eyestrain, some other people have the same issue with that specific model. I've seen both the NANO panel or just the highly saturated colours being listed as culprits, but it's still something in the back of my head with buying this new monitor.

PS: The 600 euros is the higher-end of the budget, looking around for lower priced ones as well and they don't have to be released in 2025, etc.
