Why OLED for PC use?

Where is your proof, moron? I don't own an OLED. I don't even watch OLEDs in a cave. You do watch your dim FALD display in a dim room (probably in your mom's basement but I will accept that this is pure speculation on my part, but since you have not refuted it even once I do think it is extremely likely) and pretend you're looking at real life. You have multiple posts saying you do this. You can't deny this. You have zero proof to your retarded lies.

And OLEDs are generally way brighter than 100 nits and even a moron like you know this, as you have posted about it repeatedly, but you just have to lie. Because you're a moron.

Again, I don't even need a second respond back.

1. You simply pull out a dual-layer LCD to undermine FALD by saying stupid crap like FALD cannot be used by professionals because it is less accurate than a $50,000 dual-layer LCD. It's always funny when I say FALD LCD > OLED in HDR while you say Dual-layer LCD > FALD LCD. It's always funny you say OLED is accurate as long as it is in the 200nits SDR range as if HDR matters more in that range. OLED doesn't even cover more color than FALD. The accuracy on low range doesn't even match a lot.

2. It's you say stupid things such as people are idiots when using FLAD for grading HDR while claiming proof of professionals using FALD. Then you double down to shoot yourself in the own foot by providing links where they encourage you to grade HDR with things you can buy. Yet you still deny it even the though some of the best HDR videos made by FALD are right front of your face. It wasn't a surprise since you cannot see better anyway.

3. Since they are idiots to you. You better prove you are not an idiot. You better make HDR videos better than they did. But in reality, you with your 200nits OLED cannot even see better not even mentioning grading HDR.

4. You can even try to prove you can make HDR like I did. I can even give you some footage to grade.

What is my preference? It's a fact OLED is dim. It's a fact it doesn't have HDR as good as FALD LCD. It's a fact OLED has flickers. Or I would've used it.
 
AwesomeOwl said:
Funny, that it doesn't matter that you're precious mini-LED is only better than OLED in high APL HDR scenes and substantially worse in practically everything else. So bad actually that people disable FALD for normal desktop use. Also funny how hollywood movies have been graded on OLED, and probably no movies have been graded on mini-LED (definitely not on the one you're trying to sell to everyone).
Also funny how had this argument so I can just quote myself:

Literally who cares?

Yeah, this could be a huge problem, except seemingly no one on the planet has a problem with it except you. Actually I'm not even sure you have a real problem with it yourself, but it sure is convenient that you can prove that it "flickers". Also disregarding the fact that people gladly will use monitors that actually flicker a lot and have no side effects from it...
Click to expand...
Funny the hollywood movies are graded on the reference monitors like Sony BVM-X300. An consumer OLED like AW3423DW will only have much worse accuracy compared to PG35VQ. In the end it's the PG35VQ look closer to Sony BVM-X300, not a 200nits OLED like AW3423DW lol.

Maybe you can bust out your 100nits OLED for grading. Get a PA32DC first.
 
kramnelis said:
Yeah except not many people are really buying it until it solves the brightness and flickers.
Click to expand...
Most people are not concerned about either of those things. Instead I see fear of burn in and concerns over text rendering.

I don't know why HUB does not list the PG32UQX as it does deserve to be in the discussion about HDR monitors, but that's probably because for the majority of their viewers those are way, way out of the price range they are willing to pay.

On paper something like the Samsung Neo G8 is a damn near perfect monitor. 4K, 240 Hz, mini-LED with enough zones, very good pixel response times, good contrast ratio for SDR, less than half the price of the PG32UQX in my country, even less than that on sale. Of course it doesn't quite deliver with its weird curvature, VA viewing angle issues, slightly too aggressive AG coating, firmware bugs, scanline problems etc.

So people compromise. With many people coming from HDR400 edge lit monitors, anything is really a significant improvement over that and yes, even those OLEDs manage to impress with the way they handle high contrast scenes while e.g the Neo G7/G8 will deliver for some bright sunny beaches etc scenes that many games have. You can argue all you want on technicalities but people find these compromises to deliver image quality that they thoroughly enjoy.
 
Do you guys remember the big CRT price fixing lawsuits as CRT was dying off and being replaced by LCD?

FALDs are ridiculously expensive. Which is weird because OLEDs are vastly supperior and even new tech like Micro LED coming to consumers is looking inevitable.

It makes me wonder if the same price fixing shenanigans will happen or are already going on with FALDs, and maybe LCDs in general. As fewer companies produce them there is less competition and it becomes easier for the few left to make shady deals.

I doubt that. The price did take a while to come down but now you can find MiniLED monitors for under $1000 (Although choices are still kinda far and few). The Cooler Master GP27U looks like a great pick and priced similarly to the 27M2V if you don't want to gamble on the InnoCN model. The Samsung Neo G7 and G8 also get discounted to under $1000. The Acer X32FP was also recently discounted to $1100 from Microcenter so it's not like the FALD monitors are staying above the $2000+ mark like that have been for the last 5 years. Eventually we will get even more options from Msi, Gigabyte, LG, etc etc.

I think it's this way for every new tech. There's a period when they are very expensive and slowly come down.

At the moment FALD/mini-LED displays are still fairly expensive, but so are e.g 5120x2160 ultrawides and those are basically garbage for most other specs like refresh rates, HDR support etc. yet cost 1500-1700 euros.

TVs are probably the most interesting as they can drop to less than half the price within a year.

Price is a factor to consider. Not everything is covered on paper. Features such as DC dimming backlight, G-sync, and native 10-bit panels are very important factors for HDR monitors.

Your eyes need to be comfortable to see flicker-free 1000 nits without eyestrain. Displaying good HDR, such as maintaining accurate EOTF, requires a lot of processing power to to analyze the image data and apply precise adjustments to the display's gamma curve, color gamut, and brightness levels. These adjustments must be made on a per-pixel basis and must be updated frequently to account for changes in the image content. Then the backlight needs to have a high degree of local dimming control, which allows the backlight to be controlled at a fine-grained level. The panel itself also needs to contain enough color. These features are expensive and are not covered as much on paper. However, the trend of technology will continue to advance to the consumer level once the price is cut down.

The same thing applies to OLED. Yet, I doubt OLED can fix flickers and brightness at the same time since they are against each other. So far, the brightness is still low. The price plus tax for a 27" 2K 240Hz HDR300 OLED at $1370 is almost double the price of a $790 32" 4K 144Hz HDR 1000 miniLED in certain regions.

Each reviewer has their own preference. This is why Snowman stands out because he just reviews products he sells without much suggestion. The price is there. You want it, then go pay for it.

Why? You still haven't explained why everyone must have 1000+ nits shot into their eyes at all times to use a display. No one wants that for their day to day work. No one wants that to browse the web. I sure as shit don't when I'm working with white sheet drawings, documents and spreadsheets. That's a sure fire way to get eyestrain, above and beyond any flicker you're so concerned about.

HDR and high brightness/contrast has its place and it looks fantastic when done right, for the right reasons. Gaming with 2000 nit highlights is quite impactful, for example.

Taking everyday office-centric sRGB content and blowing it out of proportion is not a good use of HDR - it isn't even "HDR" to begin with.

Attacking people on the internet for using "dim" displays for their work just because you have OPINIONS on various display tech methods is the saddest thing I've seen in a long, long time.

I need to keep an OLED around for comparison from time to time. Despite being an OLED, the AW3423DW has good build quality. It's also packed with G-Sync, making it worth the price to keep.

I've mentioned multiple times that our eyes prefer high range images as they tend to have better images. This is simply how our eyes work, similar to how eyes like high refresh rates.

However, there's a difference between having the option to see high range images versus not having that option at all. If you choose an OLED, you're stuck in the low range with limited brightness and a limited color space. The image quality is not impressive at low range.

Furthermore, the most common screen brightness for PC use is around 250-300 nits, which OLED screens cannot achieve. If you want to use an OLED to display dim images, then go for it. But if you want the option to see better and high range images, OLED is not the way to go. This is not how the monitor market goes as well. Plus OLED is flickering. These are why OLED is not a good choice for PC use.

You get extremely passionate about other people's setups to the point where you believe their preference is invalid and that they "must see better images!!!"

Which is again, based on your opinions and preferences, some people may not like the extreme brightness and contrast of HDR1000 or greater.

None of your repetitive posting of the same points has made any sense, has persuaded anyone away from their choice of tech, or has been productive in any way.

If all the monitors are dim then there won't be more and better HDR content anyway.

The availability of HDR content is limited by the display technology available. If monitors are not capable of displaying HDR content with sufficient brightness and contrast, then content creators may not be motivated to invest in creating better HDR.

The major task here is to popularize HDR content as much as possible. But OLED is limited to show better HDR.

Ever thought that the vast majority of monitors sold, for the purpose of work, are purchased with cost in mind?

Large companies filling their office floors with new setups aren't going to buy expensive HDR monitors for their workforce, they will buy what is suitable to get work done at the lowest cost.

Even if costs come down, it's still going to be more expensive to implement true HDR than to just mass produce "dim" sRGB office monitors and sell millions of them.

"More and better HDR content" is utterly irrelevant to most monitor buyers and there's nothing that whining on here is going to do about it.
