OLED prices are coming down, while there has never been a better time to buy OLED, I could also make the argument that there has never been a worse time to buy OLED. If you wait until the end of 2023, you'll probably have $500-$600 OLED options in the monitor segment.
I have an LG OLED b6 as a desktop monitor, since almost 2 years ago and I couldn't be happier with it. True, I sit around 1,2 meters away from it, but for the 800 USD I paid for it, it simply is unbeatable for what I do (gaming, videos and social media). Even the speakers in this unit sound decent...
If you have not seen an actual oled of any kind at work personally you really don't understand how little that number matters. I have the Alienware aw3423dw qd oled ultra wide monitor. I literally looked at everyone one these monitors on this list before buying it at microcenter. They are plenty bright all of them and the Alienware gets so bright it literally hurts my eyes in proper Hdr implemented content.Not really feeling OLED for the desktop yet. Aren't they at about 250nits for SDR ? Granted you'll obviously have increased range with per pixel control giving you deep blacks but ...still it's not putting out much light itself to compete with ambient daytime. For a home theater OLED is truly king because it's not an unreasonable expectation that you'll be watching your movies in the dark. Glad to see things are heading in the right direction though
Yeah most HDR monitors are miserable and has bad HDR, pretty much 99%
I want to try that LG UltraGear OLED 27GR95QE sometime later this year when it comes in stock
Does the subpiel config annoy you? Is text sharp in general?Well I bought the AW3423DW in mid 2022 and I must say that it is the biggest single upgrade I have made to my rig. The colors are stunning, the contrast is incredible, and I am no longer being irritated by the dreaded "IPS glow".
I bow to QD-OLED!!

I love QD-OLED for TVs but I am not sure I will like it for PC usage. For gaming it will be fine but for browsing and doing actual work with tons of small black text on a white background - I hear text is not sharp here.
LinusTechTips called it a non-issue but another person at LTT said he would not accept it...I'd like to hear from people on this too. I'd also love to see some photos and screenshots taken from a well known site like TechSpot. I thought I had heard that Windows Truetype can fix a lot of the issues, but I have no idea if that's true or not.
Do any good OLED monitors have tech that doesn't cause this fringing problem?
Thanks!
