is it normal for all 1000:1 contrast ratio monitors to have this grey tint over everything?
been trying to upgrade from an old office monitor for some time now and all three of the new monitors iv tried nothing looks really black just dark grey

so far all 3 that iv tried are IPS so im thinking i should try a VA since i dont want to spend for an OLED

this is the monitor i got and wondering if its defective because some games are almost unplayable because at night time everything just looks like a grey blur

I strongly recommend you save your shekels for a while longer until you can afford a decent OLED. Between my desktop display, phone and Steam Deck, I just can't go back to LCD. I hope we'll eventually get an OLED or successor panel technology for Framework laptops, because while it's a good LCD panel, it's still an LCD panel.

Save your shekels for a decent OLED, and then keep doing it so you can replace it when it burns in.

Iv considered some of the OELDs for around 500$ but im worried they might not last more than 2 or 3 years because of burn in

I had a VA monitor once. The black smear was bad enough to make me swear off VA panels for eternity.

I don't think OLED burn in has been solved yet for desktop monitors being used daily with static elements. Maybe if you have a dedicated OLED monitor for multimedia it's fine but otherwise I wouldn't risk it.

For me, doing mostly productivity work on my monitors with static elements all day every day it seems IPS is still the only option, even though it has its downsides like bad contrast (which I'd take over black smearing or burn in any time)

>just drop $800 on a disposable oled monitor that you have to replace every 6 months
no
