Our Verdict
Samsung Odyssey OLED G80SD S32DG80
Dell Alienware AW3225QF
The Dell Alienware AW3225QF and the Samsung Odyssey OLED G80SD S32DG80 are both 4k @ 240Hz QD-OLED monitors. The Samsung monitor is the better choice if you plan to use the monitor as a TV, as it has a remote and integrated apps like Netflix. It's also a better choice if you're in a brighter room, as it has better reflection handling. However, if video quality is very important to you, then the Dell is the better option, as it supports Dolby Vision, and content available in that format will look better.
