OLED is a shitty dead end tech, when Micro-LED comes along, OLED will be irrelevant. OLED fanboys swear it's the best thing, but it has too many downsides for deep blacks which Mini-LED comes very close to achieving without a million sacrifices in durability. You're paying a premium to be a tech tester.
>>109057807I really don't think OLED has that many downsides in 2026. Mini-LED has come very close, but there's still something about OLED displays that feel just a little less "digital" which I think is down to color tones and higher density, but then again I guess the difference is negligible for most
ten bucksjust werks
>>109057823>I really don't think OLED has that many downsides in 2026I found it does, it has many.>screen coatings are usually very fragile>Windows doesn't like OLED and text looks fringed>all organic pixels are actively dying in real time, full of anti burn in measures which just delay the inevitable. Full screen reset every 4 hours otherwise pixels uneveningly wear out causing burn inI got a second hand AOC mini LED for like $150 and the blacks are inky and I dont have to worry about burn in. I had a $800 MSI one and it was shit
>>109057865you sound like the food scientist who makes artificial orange juice
>>109057901u sound like a fat nigger
>>109057807> when Micro-LED comes alongYes when, as in not right now. Right now there are not a lot of options, its pretty much OLED or keep using your ancient and increasingly obsolete CRT.
>>109057909nigga, by the time OLED has all its quirks ironed out Mini-LED will be readily available to consumers and OLED will be literal e-waste.
>>109057909>Right now there are not a lot of optionscrock of shit1there are plenty of options right now.IPS are still very competitively priced, VA panels have come a very very long way from being absolute dog shit, mini-led + VA panels come very very close to OLED without all burn in bullshit. lots of good monitors currently under $200. You dont need to spend $1000 for good blacks anymore
why do mini LED have big bezels is it because of light bleed?
>>109057922irrelevant. People need monitors right now, not in several decades. All this waiting, eventually you will be on your death bed still waiting.>>109057932Imagine seriously arguing for LCD trash.
>>109057933more tech to shove into a panel, probably to keep it more secure and stop backlight bleed too.
>>109057954yeah we know you pay for OLED branding and you cry yourself to sleep trying to ignore all the text fringing, your monitor nagging you for a refresh and ur fragile fuck ass ahhh coatin on ur monitor which has a lifespan of 6 months before massive gouges start appearing on your monitor.
>>109057967FACT : TRUE!Many OLED monitors have a glossy finish to their panels! This is to let the color appear more vivid and bright because OLEDS aren't very bright by themselves. These coatings are very thin and prone to scratches! The most common complaint is that this coating is literal gunk magnet and cleaning it is a risk as microfibres scratches the coating!
>>109057807OLED>Hide your icons>Hide your taskbar>Use a solid color wallpaper>Watch all your content fullscreen>Use a screensaver>Don't use your PC for extended periods of time>Be very careful with the panel itselfAbsolutely cucked panel technology and yes it will burn in regardless.
>>109057999there's a bonus for movie watchers since every movie has aggressive vignetting now, the burn in (Burn out) portion will be the center of the screen so it will dim to fit the vignettingyou'll only need a scant 2000 hours to begin to see the fruits of seasoning your oled
>>109057999trips of truth.too many work arounds, trade offs. I can buy a $100 IPS panel off Amazon, throw it out the window, bring it back in and it will work for another 10 years. Fuck OLED.
>>109057999>"BUT BRO THEY FIXED BURN IN THEY DONT BURN IN ANYMORE"literal retards spout this angers me. It shouldn't be called burn in , it should be called burn out. These individual pixels are wearing out every passing second, every pixel has a different amount of strain causing uneven amounts of wear which gives the affect of burn in. They cannot fix this, it's a limitation of the technology, they can only prolong it.
>>109057807I'll buy an OLED but unfortunately the combo that I'm looking for doesn't exist. Sub 25" 1440p.t. heterosexual man who carries the spark of the creator and believes in freewill
>>109057999/thread
>>109057807>when Micro-LED comes alongOkay so shut the fuck up until that happens while I enjoy my OLED lmfao poor bitch.
>>109057807I've asked this multiple times, but wouldn't a monochrome OLED layered with a color LCD be the best of both worlds? Both Mini and Micro LED are essentially this except the OLED layer is a lower resolution than the LCD layer. If we already have the technology to make 2160p color OLEDs, surely we could make monochrome 2160p panels, why would the jump from hundreds of LEDs to thousands matter if a monochrome OLED layer would be millions?
>>109058092nigga oled is like $300 on amazon rn, fuk u mean bitrch ass ahh. amazon even do open box AOC for like $200
>>109058104so why make this thread then you bitching poor cuck go buy an OLED
Why do OLED owners beg people to buy OLED monitors?

>>109057967>>109057978Why not buy a monitor with actual glass. They make OLED monitors with Gorilla glass.
>>109058157>kicks and screams that other people must be unhappy with their purchase>meanwhile oled enjoyers actively not thinking about their purchase at all and get on with their livesi could be mad at a lot worse things in life, you know, child abuse, shit like that, not a fucking monitor, 4chud incel
I bought an LG C5 a couple of weeks ago to watch the World Cup on. Shit is extremely cash. I didn't have a TV before that, but I thought that the TCL MiniLED LCD my mother has looked pretty good. Now it looks like shit to me. The thing people never talk about with OLED is the motion clarity due to the near-instantaneous pixel response. Watching football on one is incredible with the camera panning back and forth all the time, and it looks incredibly blurry to me now on an LCD every time the camera moves. Truly one of those "you can never go back" technology moments.I wouldn't buy one as a PC monitor though. A cheap IPS is fine for that.
leaving this thread to enjoy my oled and life btw enjoy hating on something that doesn't even care about you
>>109057823it all peaked with plasma, i dont care if you scale up to 200" with a trillion pixels, when i watched sports on a plasma 50", the immersion was unbroken for the whole game. OLED is fine but it just does not pop like a good panny or pioneer plasma
>OLED is so bad he needs to make a thread about themKWAB
>>109057807>OLED is a shitty dead end tech, when Micro-LED comes along, OLED will be irrelevant. OLED fanboys swear it's the best thing, but it has too many downsides for deep blacks which Mini-LED comes very close to achieving without a million sacrifices in durability. You're paying a premium to be a tech tester.The way I see it, OLED is the best tech we have until microled is truly 1:1 pixel brightness and not just "zones" Anyone who works with colour grading will attest to that, or enjoys contet with shadows
I need a new monitor. Do I just buy an LG IPS?
>>109057807>when Micro-LED comes alongIt usually takes 20 years for TV tech to trickle down to monitor.You aren't getting younger.
>>109059511nah get an oled one, theyre soooooo much better than IPS, better for gaming too
My phone hasn't burned in despite being an Oled
>>109057999OLED is for those who enjoy being humiliated.
>>109057999I do none of this, but I do turn the screen off whenever I walk away from my PC
I only use my OLED for watching porn, literally no other use for this trash.
Do all monitors have a bunch of intrusive energy saving settings turned on now that you gotta disable to make everything work? Ultragear definitely had that issue. Easy to solve tho and other than that it's quite good.
>>109057807I've been honestly quite surprised by how good the IPS LCD is on my little tablet, when I read my mangoes in bed at night the blacks are almost completely black, I thought it might be a problem but I can't even see any black bars in a dark room
>>109057807>OLED is a shitty dead end tech, when Micro-LED comes alongtheres a bigger chance of burn-in being solved, becoming visible only after 30 years, than microled entering the consumer market
1000 hours now after owning my OLED for 3 months.Couldnt imagine being an lcd cuckIts also bright as hell despite people trying to tell you otherwise, I keep it at 46 brightness SDR
>almost caved in and bought an OLED>remembered I would autistically obsess over the potential burn in issue and overthink it>decide to keep my IPS 1440p 75hz panel for a few more years yetpic unrel
oled is cheap, with the entry level monitors at $250-$300 having ~200 nits, 240Hz, 1440p, no viewing angle problems etc. plenty nice for vidta. and $500 will get you something with really nice HDR. the black level floor really is a huge deal when you're sitting so close to the screen in relatively dim rooms
>>109057807>when Micro-LED comes alonglolsee you in 2060
>>109057823>Mini-LED has come very close,it hasn't the response times are total fucking shit, they are unusable for gaming and still bloom like trash for other content
>>109059024I still keep a plasma just for sports lol OLED is total trash for broadcast streams.
please stop talking about oleds I want to buy a bigger monitor because my oled is too tiny but I don't need it I'm just a goysoomer that's never happy so stop talking about it so I can resist the urge to keep buying stuff I have a very addictive personality but I'm not in debt but I only have 5k in savings and I just want to keep typing this run on sentence
>>109058123Why are LCD users constantly seething about OLED?OLED single handedly dropped LCD prices yet OLED is the problem.
>>109057828So are you a bot or just some really pampered faggot who doesnt know anything?
Imagine not being a waiter and getting the ktc miniled. I waited 13 year since my last personal pc built, no excuse.
>>109057807>Micro-LED>monitors are 24"-32"Aren't the little panels still sub 640px? I don't want tiny CRT resolutions in any of my monitors...
>>109058096How would that help? The LCD layer would not be perfectly transparent which means some brightness would be lost, which is one of the main problems with OLED (driving them hard kills them quicker). In addition to that even if you just make white OLED subpixels, that does not remove the problem of uneven usage causing burn-in. You'd still get the burn-in anyway.
>>109060936The response time is the same as any other LCD and those things have been in ubiquitous use for gaming for decades now, even in VR headsets.
>>109057807VRR fucking susks on oled
>>109060857most phone screens nowadays are oleddo you obsess about burnin on your phone too?
>>109062002NTA but my phone gets <1h screen time each day, it's not worth worrying about. It's not the same as a computer monitor which I expect to run for 8h for work and then some more for leisure on most days.
>>109061011Inferiority complex. The funny thing is that none of the LCD defenders brought up convincing points like G-Sync pulsar, so it's likely just people using sub $100 1080p/75hz displays still.
LCD fags are poor

>>109062489With all the increasing prices and job losses I think I'll have to use my 27inch UHD display for another ten years
>>109057807>Micro-LED comes alongSo literally never? On what basis are you assuming that it's ever going to be viable under that name?
>>109061986>How would that help?It's literally MicroLED on steroids>some brightness would be lost, which is one of the main problems with OLEDThe brightness issue stems from the fact we don't have good methods for making green LEDs, so peak screen brightness is determined by whatever the current peak green brightness is. By making this layer monochrome, we'd be limited by whatever the current peak blue brightness is, since white LEDs are just blue with a phosphor coating>In addition to that even if you just make white OLED subpixelNo, it'd be one monochrome OLED pixel per color LCD pixel. No subpixels in the OLED layer>that does not remove the problem of uneven usage causing burn-inIt might not be entirely gone, but it'd be severely reduced
I bought my first OLED pc monitor just a few months ago and I'll never go back to LCD. if this monitor ever has visible burn-in I'll just buy a new one in 5-6 years or whatever.ASUS XG27AQWMG bros, highly recommended.
>>109057807>when Micro-LED comes alongI've heard idiots like you saying this for 8 years now.You're just a poor retard upset you can't afford an OLED.
>b-but your OLED will dieI'll get another one if it dies, meanwhile you'd be stuck on an old LCD with shit motion clarity, viewing angles, contrast etc. waiting for a technology that's permanently 2 years away.
>>109057999I don't do any of this and haven't had any burn-in even after 4 years. Just don't max out your brightness bro. I don't understand why people try to hate on OLED so much, if you prefer IPS and you're happy with it then keep enjoying it, you don't have to buy any other monitor.
>>109063853>27"I already felt pissy having to jump from 21" to 24" when I wanted 144hz, why can't they make reasonably sized monitors with good specs?

>>109064338My room is pretty big, issue is desk space, I already had to get a custom desk becauseI could not find a desk wider than 50" locally, and the carpenter could do a 59" tops due to it being the longest his truck could hold
>>109057807Yeah anyday now, maybe another 10 years of shilling micro-LED will make it finally come true.
>>109064355It must be rough to mail hardware to the Dwarven kingdom
>>109064089>don't max out your brightnessThere's no color without brightness
>>109064783Unironically might be the case, I'm only 5'10" and I find myself regularly having to crouch under doorways or really look down on tables. Whole country of fucking midgets
CRTs are just superiorIf you're poor and can find one for like 10 dollars on a bazaar, and your other screens are 60hz LED shit
>>109057807>dead end techI don't care much about that when my LG C1 OLED TV has been giving me outstanding picture quality for more than 5 years without any burn-in.
>>109058123this is ALWAYS a huge red flag about a piece of tech
>>109062001If you're playing at 20 fps maybe.
>>109064821What shader is that? Or real CRT?They are almost indistinguishable nowadays.
People that buy OLED do not care about burn in. They do not care. Even if it burns in they will still buy OLED.The thing that annoys them more is the ABL actually. They'd rather have no burn in protections use it however they want and then buy another later. Not kidding. They don't care about burn in at all. They will only buy OLED.
>>109065041They don't. It's always anti-OLED people crying about issues from 5+ years ago. This website is a garbage echo chamber of mentally ill people that may as well be spambots. It would make no difference.
>>109062002There are several factors at play as to why you don't need to worry about phone screens burning in, one of the most significant is that they use exponentially less power than larger OLED displays, and it's the power usage that directly correlates to OLEDs burning out quicker.
>>109057807poverty cope
Show me an OLED that has:No VRR flickerNo aggressive ABL ruining HDRNo low-luminance banding/dirty screen effectAnd I'll never bitch about burn-in or price ever again.
Oled has much better motion, color, blacks, and works far better in a dim room.The burn in comes from letting the same color stay in an area too long.Burn in and pixel damage happens faster the brighter the display.Turn it way down and stop trying to maximize hdr, recalibrate color, white and black level, and hdr for the lower brightness. Bam best monitor or dim movie screen you can get.Have used oled screens for years in this manner without issue.Only a mid 10s oled phone ever got burn in and you only really noticed on a white screen.Black level must be calibrated so pure black is pixels off though. High quality crt were nice too but 1080p and 4k is the standard 16:9 format most things are designed for, and oled dont give eye strain like crt.>>109065282My worst oled burn in ever was a phone screen.The brightness you set the screen at and how static anything on your screen is determines burn in.

>>109065297>Show me an OLED that has:>No VRR flickerAW3424DW due to the G-Sync module.Now stop being a whiny bitch.
>>109066027Kill yourself, shill>Yes, the Alienware AW3423DW (and its sibling, the AW3423DWF) can experience VRR flicker.This is not a defect specific to your monitor, but rather an inherent characteristic of OLED and VA panels when Variable Refresh Rate (G-Sync or FreeSync) is enabled.Understanding the VRR FlickerWhat causes it: When your framerate fluctuates wildly—especially during loading screens, menus, or when dipping below the monitor's minimum VRR threshold—the display's refresh rate changes, causing slight shifts in brightness or gamma.When it's most noticeable: It is usually most visible in darker scenes, gray areas, or games with erratic, stuttering framerates.

>>109057807Why are people so autistic about monitor panel? Just buy a good ips and that's it. If you want better image get outside of your basement.
I bought a LG woled monitor and wasn't impressed compared to my decent LG IPS monitor. The oled monitor also had awful grey banding

Why get a nice TV now for $1000 when soon you can beta test a $6000 micro-led tv that looks pretty much the same but will last way past it's irrelevancy date?
>>109069618OP mentioned both. First he said that when micro LED comes out (ie gets to a reasonable price for a personal use monitor or TV) it will be superior to OLED. Then he says that he thinks some mini LED (what you probably have) monitors come close to OLED already. Which isn't true, because I have a quality mini LED monitor in a dual setup with a WOLED monitor right next to it and the difference is stark.But that said, I don't think the quality difference is something you would miss if you don't have an OLED there to compare it to, especially considering the price difference and other drawbacks.
>>109072090desu micro led blacks are good enough and its way brighter too which is better for HDR
the aoc g4xm is very good, i dont really see a point in getting an oled. very good VA panel alone, the mini LED makes it look incredible, like the same level of wow in most games/movies.its also very bright which i hear OLEDs struggle with
>>109071991ive had OLED and it's really not like this, this is bullshit marketing. i remember my first experience was "is this it", like dont get me wrong it excels at displaying blacks but thats pretty much it, everything else is pretty shitty like text fringing and low brightness

>>109071910But maxing out the brightness sucks regardless. I have it at around 50% and even then I find it too bright at times.
>>109072126No, HDR looks significantly better on the WOLED, it's not even a contest. That might be particular to WOLED since it has the white pixels that really 'glow' in a way I've never seen on another monitor, when running in HDR. But I'm no expert, in fact I didn't even buy the thing, I got it as a gift, so I didn't do any research or anything.
>>109072234yeah but then you get washed out colors because WOLED is trash and HDR accelerates burn in because of how pixels work.
>>109072227nah the newest gens still get text fringing too, nigga.
>>109072190Compared to $400 TCL tvs it's a big jump. Watching a cgi slop movie not compressed to shit by netflix and with good contrast is a big change for the average normie. No one cares about text fringing.>>109072214I will poorly enjoy my 4k oled while you richely enjoy waiting for micro-led kek you sure showed us poors who's boss

I seriously don't get why you guys fight so hard over display technologies. If someone is happy with whatever they use, what's the issue.
>>109072286>No one cares about text fringing.>No one cares about pixel refreshing every 4 hours>No one cares about burn in>No one cares about low brightness>No one cares fragile panel coating that scratches easilycucked
>>109072330yeah i see it all the time too, tiktok/instagram OLED nigs are fucking rampart. >"ew bro get rid of that IPS">"BRO THEY FIXED BURN IN IT DOESNT HAPPEN ANYMORE"they are delusional
>>109058061Yup. You can't avoid it. The only way I'd ever believe "we've solved burn-in!!" is if they offer a lifetime warranty on it. If they've really solved it, shouldn't be a big deal, right? Of course they won't do that since it's unsolvable.
>>109072377for me, I returned my MSI QPX 27" not because of burn in, but because it's a nightmare. playing some fortnite with the boys? Nah the panel is spamming me with notifications that it wants a pixel refresh. Also, when I got some spit on the monitor that was the end of it. I used distilled water with a soft clean microfiber and it just rubs more of it in and you have to use a clean microfibre every time because the coating is so thin that even dust particles can scratch it. What a fucking nightmare. Returned it, got a second hand mini led off ebay and never looked back

The fact that Apple made their top monitor a MiniLED and not an OLED settles it. MiniLED mogs for all eternity.
>>109057807>when Micro-LED comes alongyup, any day now
>>109058018okay but why do these issues don't happen or are not mentioned about smartphone OLED displays?
>>109071480VRR flickerAggressive hardware-level ABLPoor screen uniformity at low luminance Incorrect pixel layout
>>109072234HDR on OLED looks great until more than 10% of the screen needs to get bright, then it basically turns into SDR, lol
>>109072908Because they are small, use exponentially less power/voltage, and phone screens are typically turned off more often than on for long periods of time.It's simple physics at work.
>>109071991>will last way past it's irrelevancy dateTech progress is stalled. MicroLED will be the pinnacle of displays for like 50 years.
