Bit the bullet and got myself the C2. Moved the 48 C1 to the bedroom, 42' is a much more comfortable size :) No regrets. No difference in terms of brightness and PQ between the two, at least not that I can see.

The problem is that it is very hard to switch back once you go OLED. The thing that bothers me the most when I used a non-OLED screen is the ghosting and backlight bleed So make the switch with care :D

Have had my C1 now for about 18-20 months Use it 8h a day minimum as its my main screen for work. I dont hide the task bar. Only thing here in Ireland it is usually dark, so I have my OLED brightness set to 20-30% as it is too bright otherwise. No burn it thus far. No complaints or regrets, I...

Having used both, text rendering is much better on the OLED due to the WRGB arrangement.

Yea in bright colourful content its not noticeable even when looking for it however if you have a bright single colour, whites and greys, it was very obvious. I read on AnandTech that anything below 20% difference to max brightness is not noticable anything above 30% is a bad panel.

So seems like I wasnt alone with the uniformity issues :( Was really jarring for me, Yellowish corners was a no no

Yea I usually have the 3840x1600 on RPGs like cyberpunk and horizon zero dawn, and the extra real-estate does help. I think 1080p would be too wide and distorted.

I do notice the tinting towards the edges but thats just because at a sitting distance, the edges are at an angle. Sitting further away, I dont notice them

OLED brightness is the actual brightness of the screen. The higher it is the higher the chance of burn in due to static images. It very much depends on your room. I have an IPS screen next to mine to display stats and icons, it have it set to 70 brightness. For my OLED I have it set to 25-30...

I do get like 4-5 hours screen on time on my phone daily but its mostly indoors, I have auto brightness set to it goes to 30 or so. 100 outside though. No sign of any burn in, never had any on my previous Sammy phones too. I just find the 100 to be blinding unless I am outside in direct sunlight...

I was a big HTC guy back in the day when they were making phones for Google, I had the Nexus One and HTC Desire. Absolutely loved those. Switched to the Note devices from Samsung after and cant really go back, prefer the big screen and just the overall design from Samsung, they are shit in...

Are you on 100% brightness on your phone 8-10 hours a day? lol I've had OLED phone screens since the S2 days and never had a single burn in experience :D

Yea thats whats good wiith android, that said though there is still a lot of propietary code, Samsung is the biggest culprit. So wih custom roms some basic features like camera or mic etc.. might not work, worth checking out and asking on XDA

HTC is gone so I wouldnt count much on it being supported in the long run.

No flickering on mine, the only thing around eye strain is when doing HDR at night, it is a little too bright for me, I have to dim it
