Vertical banding is awful. The internet downplays this issue. The common sentiment is that this is only visible on uniformly grey backgrounds. I find it noticable almost everywhere, even in bright vibrant movies. I guess it's back to IPS monitors until we get QDEL.
It is only visible on uniform grey backgroundsbut guess what every dark mode of every site is
That's a Woled issue. It's why you buy QDoled. Prefer purple tint in bright room over banding in all scenarios
I genuinely prefer $100 piece of shit IPS monitors off amazon at this point
>>109283794My phone camera isn't good enough to showcase the vertical banding on bright scenes. But I'm noticing it constantly and it's driving me crazy. I ordered a 5K IPS Asus Pro today. I'm done with OLED, and I'm not going to FAFO with MiniLED's haloing and luminance issues either.
oled is a highly subsidized ass panel thats only subsidized because the environmental impact is much lower than lcdnot even conspiratorial thinking, the subsidies and reasons for producing it are public information you can look upwith marketing you can convince retards of anything, even to buy inferior products that degrade upon use. consoomers will fall for anything
>>109283326I fell for the oled meme too. Can anyone recommend a good 27-inch IPS 4K 144 Hz monitor? I've heard that AHVA panels are good, but it's hard to find monitors that use them. Is there a list or database that shows which panels different monitors use?
>>109284301Anything with DP 2.1 just Google it
>>109283326QLED is the best technology, pinnacle of which was Apple's liquid retina displays before they also switched to OLEDQLED has thousands of tiny blue backlit LEDs but overall we need SEM or CRT technology, nothing beats it, nobody can explain how does GTA Vice City feel 140FPS on a CRT display, go fuck yourself
>>109284125This 2bh.Every monitor is a piece of shit so why spend a lot of money for a different piece of shit if there already is a piece of shit for a fifth of the price
>>109284307I still have my old monitor which happens to have an AHVA panel and I have to say I was surprised when I tried newer IPS monitors from LG and Gigabyte. They're so shit compared to my old monitor. Solid colors look uneven, and the edges of the screen are darker than the center, even when you're sitting right in front of it. And nobody fucking talks about it. I guess most people just don't care about stuff like this. The cheap monitors at my office have better uniformity than this shit. Mini-LED doesn't fix that "vignetting" issue either it just adds another pile of shit on top like haloing. Manufacturers sell slop and it's tiring. Thanks for reading my blog.
OLED still the best, that banding is unnoticeable compared to backlight glow/bleed, bad viewing angles and blueish/grey blacks.
>>109285396Vertical banding in my OLED is very noticable in most content. I see it in human faces for example. And I can't unsee it, the image just looks dirty when it shouldn't. All anime is unwatchable on this OLED. Even bright gradient colors have some level of visible vertical banding. I wish I had a better camera that could capture it. The only scenes where I don't see it is on stuff like grass.
>>109283326you make it sound like any oled has this problem, when in fact you could have informed yourself, before braindeadly consuming slop
>>109285803Ok, if you're so informed then tell me which 27" model doesn't have this issue
>>109283326Wait until you become aware of the shitty CPC vignetting and pwm dithering vandalizing your image quality and giving you eye strain and making you feel like you're about to become epilepticAlso they have pink and green tinted whites depending on angleWOLED is finished, griefing into irrelevancy by LG's excuse of an engineer, makes sense when you know that Samsung is the top of the mafia in South Korea and LG is the underdog you join when you couldn't join Samsung
>>109285875I haven't noticed vignetting, but near-black scenes have very noticable gradient issues. I wasn't sure if the banding was just bad source of the monitor. This kinda defeats the purpose of having a high contrast monitor. You buy an OLED to enjoy dark scenes, but you're met with issues at near blacks or greys. On top of that, there's the terrible vertical banding that's even visible on a character's skin. I can't fap to my anime waifus because their skin has visible horizontal lines.I'm wondering if OLED manufacturers paying pajeets to downplay this issue on reddit and tech forums. I've seen a few threads about vertical banding but everyone seems to say that "it's not visible in normal usage". I'd hate to be a conspiracy theorist but fuck man. If I was LG I'd 100% pay turd worlders to spread misinformation online.
>>109286267meant to say "bad source OR the monitor"
>>109286267LG manufactured panels in Guangzhou(HK, south of Shenzhen) and India, idk if this is still true post WBE genconsidering the awful culture in india i don't think it's impossible they would make the panels extra shitty on purpose as "revenge" against the english colonisation.Don't underestimate the idiocy of shills, it's like audiofools defending shitty wireless headphones that have constant hissing/whistling and qualcomm dac/dsp flips, like they find all these differences between different models when it's the same shitty qualcomm dac with constant hissing with another driver and shell, same goes with TVs, the same shitty LG panels with the same shitty googletv os and inferior mediatek soc that has more input lag with a new shell and they somehow find differences in actual image quality.Similar bullshit exists with monitors, but not as bad as at least the OSD and internals may actually be different.
>>109286527Fuck man. It sucks that the only way to find the truth is to FAFO. The whole internet seems to be filled with paid shills or people who are downplaying the issues to rationalize their purchase decision. I'll need to be more careful next time to test monitor within the 2 week return period. I was too busy with work and didn't unpack the monitor until a month later.
>>109286585Even when you're ordering displays for manufacturing it's hard. It almost feels like the internet somehow makes socialization and collaboration *harder* rather than easier like it's supposed to.
Took out a better camera. The dirty screen effect (vertical lines of varying brightness) can somewhat be seen in this photo. In person the vertical lines are even more visible. This WOLED if fucking unusable.
