I was born in 1967 and people in my area wasn't very rich, the images would have never been that clear on a tube TV at 240p at best back then, seen a beta player movie once around 1979, kids beside us had a Sony VCR with a corded remote control and that was top of the line back then, we wasn't far off from TV tennis as gaming goes, Atari 2600 was earth breaking tech at the time.
Yea but what about the rectal probes?
Part of that is the lighting and QD-OLED. QD-OLEDs don't have a polarizer in them, they don't need it. The advantage of that is their viewing angles are insanely wide. Like WOLED is good, but QD-OLED is just another level. Essentially perfect. The downside is that a polarizer helps tone down the reflection of ambient light. So that combined with their very light AG coating means that in bright rooms, their black level isn't as good. Stores are, of course, extremely bright. So they don't put on their best showing there.
AFAIK, the lack of polarizer is to get some more brightness out of the the QDOLEDs rather than improving viewing angles (which in most cases is not a problem on any OLEDs). Traiding poor blacks for a marginal increase in viewing angles seems like a bad tradeoff.
Where did you see that? Can you provide a link to the test?
Are there any TVs or monitors sold with RGB leds that would allow for a degradation like that today? With everything being WOLED or QD-OLED with a conversion layer above the leds I don't see how that particular concern would be a thing nowadays.cant tell for last gen stuff as i havent been working in retail sales for a while now, but part of the training i had (mil channel) included talking to techs, one being the different life expectancy on organic leds,
and that to make up for the loss of blue (going out sooner), the other colors would be dropped in output as well, to keep image uniform, but impacting max output for brightness.
cant even tell if this was done by the tv, or if it got covered thru calibration, just something i know to remember, in case a customer asked.
then again, not something i worried about (in detail), as they have pro stuff like 32in oled monis, that go for 30-50 K, so i assume they know what they talk about
Could be, I didn't know about that part of it, just the viewing angles, having observed that. It is amazing how wide the viewing angles are. Like WOLED is good, better than IPS, but it does drop off at the sides. QDOLED you can look at practically perpendicular and it still looks great. It is nice if you have a big living room. I noticed in our living room how good the TV looks even in some really crappy sitting positions.
.Micro-LED vs LED
Current so-called LED displays are actually LCD displays that use LED as backlighting units - which are always on with a liquid-crystal layer that is used to create the actual image (i.e. block the light where needed). This complicated LCD structure results in a device with serious image quality drawbacks (mainly a low response time and relatively poor contrast ratio) and also difficulties in achieving flexibility and high-quality transparency.
These sdr scene screen captures from a few videos below, including hdtvtest's review of the pro art ucx. The images are in sdr, compressed, and the screen shotting also affected them. The reviewers had to use different iso/camera settings to show the effect in sdr. So the images are greatly exaggerated compared to what you'd see in real life, but it highlights where the FALD is lifting the blacks and dark detail.
While FALD can get very high contrast numbers on larger fields of dark and larger fields of bright/white, in mixed contrast areas it will drop those combined areas back to nearer the native contrast of the screen, 3000:1 to 5000:1 typically. 3,000:1 to 5,000:1 were ok numbers for an edge lit VA screen in previous years, but in viewing dynamic content on a FALD you are dynamically elevating and dropping the zones so the effect on uniformity is bad. The larger fields of brights and darks remain much more solidly at their enormously greater brightness/darkness level values while mixed contrast area puddles all over a scene are lifting and dimming down to near native contrast and with fluctuating elevation. The actual video most of these images are from is linked at the bottom of the quote.

"elevated blacks and a distracting amount of fluctuating elevation"

From a different review of the ucx, capturing the lifted area around a cursor or other small detail area:

From a samsung 90B FALD review (camera iso and sdr capture greatly exaggerating the effect but it shows how larger areas are lifting, (and dynamically across the screen in actual viewing).

Mini LED Tech Helps Asus Cram 1152 Zones into 32" Monitor, But Is It Enough? (PA32UCX Review)
Maybe the first person that I know of that would remember Zayer's, also KING department stores was a player and also COOKS department stores was in that era I remember from the 70's in my area of Greensboro NC as a kid.
What games? Turn off VRR and lock to a framerate, flicker is caused by large swings in frames like 240fps down to 60fps, for example.
Cyberpunk 2077, Alan Wake II, MS Flight Simulator (when flying at night) and Dying Light 2. The frame rates were fairly consistent at around 100~130 fps range with no wild swings and yet the VRR flickering was really bad in-game. I mean I don't mind it happening in menu screens but when it happens while I'm playing, it's super distracting.
I uninstalled DD2 after 6 hours. Ripped off.
I'm like 80-100fps on the 57 and about where your at 160fps on the AW32
Yeah, the way light spills through what's suppose to be a black screen is what first struck me about LCD.
Wow! Haven't thought of Zayres in many decades. Last one I was in was Lorain Ohio in early 80's.
Keep the IPS for productivity and web browsing. Use the OLED for gaming, movies, etc.
