So no magic firmware update incoming to unlock the secret 500watt mode where it becomes a “real 1000nit monitor”? Ripped off.

Why would a good bloom suppression algo crush detail in large low contrast parts of the scene with no bloom? Isn’t the situation we’re in because thats basically impossible? You can have your preferences for strategy for dealing with an image you can’t actually show, but if any real device...

Ah I see, thanks, I overlooked that when I was at the page last. I should actually read stuff properly! Yes that's defintely what I see. I do feel like it is more pronounced in 8bit compared with 10bit in HDR, but its there all the time even in 8bit SDR mode. Forget brightness, I would...

Can we give the histrionics a rest. So much drama queening and “super meaningful indignation” recently in [H] display. You mean noisy temporally? It’s there on my alienware 34 too. Can anybody with a 3rd gen panel see it on theirs?

That's a shame. Does that include it being responsible for the impression that it's squirming/crawling?

My gen1 aw34 qd-oled shows that lagom black levels test fine, all squares clearly visible. It is a good pattern for seeing how dirty/film-grainy/quantum-foamy the gen1 is when showing these low-luminance colours though, has that been improved on the gen3's? Also dumb question about how Dolby...

Oh I agree, in SDR 250nit is already too bright for me, I don't run it 100% brightness either there. But HDR isn't SDR, you bump the brightness in SDR and everything gets bright without any sort of balance, it just stretches the scene out like an ink mark on an elastic band being pulled out. In...

Its definitely not a “crt like” miss it thing. I dont feel bad about having given my lcds away or them sitting the corner getting chewed on by the cats and collecting dust. Theres been no impulse to connect them back up. But even though my qdoled aw is great on so many levels its a bit...

Wouldn't they just raise the brightness to compensate? What's the effect of duty cycle on burn-in and power use for an oled pixel?

Noticed in tomshardware ces blog that they say msi are claiming True Black 500 for the 491c which requires at least 500/300 for 10/100 windows. Typo? But it'd be in line with the claimed 30% boost. Didn't look like it was working when they went past though

Definitely agree the situation isn't great currently. Monitors seem to provide a lot of information about themselves, including a certification which links to some pretty detailed requirements, what's the barrier to games adjusting to the connected device automatically? The most I've noticed is...

So the tvs get a 30% brightness boost but the monitors are going with the 30% power reduction for the sake of some eu efficiency standard, is that what that video is saying? Or maybe 30% brightness boost wouldn’t quite get them to HDR 600 Black certification on desktop so they didn’t bother...
