Same. A 49" would be perfect for my desk.if they even had a 49 " i 'd bite lol
if they even had a 49 " i 'd bite lol
If I saw something even around 40 I'd be sorely tempted.
For gamers: How's input lag and response time on these bad boys?
AFAIK they're only adding a 77" size to the existing 55" and 65" models in their OLED lineup. You probably mistook a 49" from their LCD lineup for an OLED.just checked the CES 2018 links, looks like LG might be dropping a 49 version of this, which is still way too big but at least usable
Hi Guys im thinking to get a LG OLED B7 "55 as a computer monitor may i browse the internet with it?should i get image retention if i do so? any tips on how to avoid image retention?
I have an 55" LG OLED, but not as a monitor. Why? It's really just too big IMHO. I mean you could push it farther away I suppose, but probably a waste of money at that point. Filling up beyond your field of vision might make gaming more realistic, but you'll also die more
Yes i know what you mean,my pc monitor its a 50" 4k so i think ill will be fine
My concern its image retention hopefully some guys that use it permanently as a pc monitor can comment on that,i dont know how much time on tbe same image its too much
Thank you! honestly how long its a long period of time?..
Man i dream about this oled,but im going to watch letter box movies,surf the web,download torrents,play starcraft,shadow warrior 2 or video chat on skype the same things i do with my samsung 4k i panic about getting the oled and do this same things and find out i cant beacuse of image retention not to mention burn.
Do you own an Oled?do you use it as a pc monitor?

I have a 55" LG OLED. I have zero burn in. The response time is not as good as a high end gaming monitor, but I have not noticed any issues for myself. If you are trying to do competitive gaming, it may not be the best choice. For casual regular gaming, I find that it is phenomenal in performance, especially with black levels. The black levels are truly insane.
As for the things I don't quite like about it, nothing smaller than 55" these days it seems, I would have preferred 45". When viewing for longer periods of time it does hurt my eyes a little bit, so I tend to take regular breaks (which you should do anyway). That is about it though.
Extremely well said! It's not for everyone. No product is. But currently it's what I choose to use because it works best for me. If I prioritized super high refresh rates or the lowest possible input lag, or I decided that 55" was simply too large, I would be using something else. I've had everything from 120Hz ULMB monitors to 34" ultrawides to a 48" 4K quantum dot set and right now, this is what I prefer over anything else that I've used. The image quality is pretty ridiculous and makes it worth dealing with the minor compromises.
"How long is a long period of time?"
There's no consensus on that from what I've seen. The time it takes for IR and burn-in to happen varies with the color(s) displayed and the intensity of the OLED light. I wouldn't ever leave anything running for hours on end, but that's just me being extra precautious.
Yes I own one and use it as a monitor, as I explained above in one of the posts that you liked. Hehe. I have personal experience with this and have used mine fairly extensively for gaming, movies, and general use.
Why? For me personally, it's because I play a lot of dark/horror games and no other monitor that I've used comes close to matching the perfect blacks and overall image quality. Yes, it's larger than what I'd prefer but I'm willing to make that compromise for the stunning image quality. Smaller ones will come eventually I hope, and I would have zero issues with upgrading one of our older sets with this one.
Simple as that. If I were using it only for internet and productivity, sure I agree with you.
I don't worry about what other people use. Lots of gamers choose to run smaller, high refresh displays. I have no desire to go back to a small monitor and a 27" G-Sync display holds very little appeal to me but I don't go into those threads and ask how they can do such a thing, lol.
Thank you man i should get it.i think that if i dont leave the taskbar on and browse with f11 ill be fine... i picture myself re watching blade runner 2049 on this thing.when i asked how much was too much time i was trying to say cant you leave an image 30 minutes on with no ir? How often should i change the desktop wall papper on
