Reviewer score 65%The Gigabyte FI32U is an excellent gaming monitor. It has a fast refresh rate, a fantastic response time, with very little motion blur, and it supports HDMI 2.1. The large, high-resolution screen delivers an immersive viewing experience. Unfortunately, it can't deliver a truly impactful HDR experience, as it has low peak brightness in HDR and a low contrast ratio.

Pros
- Large, high-resolution screen
- Wide viewing angles and good ergonomics
- Great gray uniformity
- Image remains accurate at an angle
- Very good peak brightness
- Gorgeous gradient handling
- Superb SDR color gamut
Cons
- Low contrast
- No local dimming feature
- High input lag
- Doesn't get very bright in HDR
techradar[2]
Reviewer score 62%The FI32U's IPS panel inherently offers good color reproduction. However, this is Gigabyte's bespoke ‘SS IPS' screen that's been turbo-charged to improve response time. It can't match the supreme response speeds of a TN monitor for top-level, competitive gaming but the color performance is way better in return. The 350-nit brightness is certainly some way behind the 1,000-nit peaks of its HDR rivals, but you wouldn't lament the lack of light.

Pros
- Fantastic 144Hz refresh rate
- Excellent gaming performance
Cons
- Mediocre contrast ratio
- No HDR

Reviewer score 88%The Gigabyte Aorus FI32U is one of the best 32-inch, 4K displays you can buy. It's packed with tons of extras that aim to make the gaming and computing experiences better. The OSD lacks the sleek styling that is otherwise so prevalent on this monitor.

Pros
- Sculpted, crystal-clear picture quality
- Sleek design
- Lots of customization options
Cons
- Expensive for a 32-inch monitor
tomshardware[4]
Reviewer score 87%The Gigabyte Aorus FI32U uses an extended color gamut, DCI-P3 to be exact. 4k at 32 inches is a comfortable 140 pixels per inch (ppi) It's large enough to allow two Word documents to occupy the screen in full view. It's at its best with good HDR content.

Pros
- Gorgeous 4K HDR image
- Excellent color gamut
- Easy-to-use OSD Sidekick app
Cons
