I see some slight uniformity differences but not as bad as the video. This is very concerning considering the reputation and obvious high cost. I think I can live with it but I remember the last Eizo I tested CS2740 was slightly more uniform. Actually, it was the first thing that impressed me about that "cheaper" Eizo.
On the positive side, I am testing with my 7i and T480s first using bandwidth limited High Speed with Ethernet hdmi cable like what @aiaf was using and the pixel flicker under scope compared with the LG is night and day difference. I'm guessing that the slight flicker I see on the Eizo is just due to pixel inversion at 30hz (1/2 refresh rate) or with some OS/Gpu generated dithering but it is much less than the LG. I assume this difference is exactly due to the lack of FRC on the Eizo.
To be consistent both monitors were tested at 60hz (the LG can do 144hz but that distorts fair comparison). The Eizo can tell me in the menu that my signal is 10 bit when I use a 30Gbps usb-c to displayport cable but it does not display anything when using this old HDMI cable. For this test, the 7i was running Win 11 on Nvidia GPU with I think dithers and the T480s was running linux mint.
Brightness is indicated in the menu using candela per square meter instead of percentage brightness so the 27% is roughly 150 cd/m2 out 550 cd/m2 (max brightness).
