Not the most tech savvy person so please bear with me.

What exactly is it? What’s the difference between it and something like FALD? Are they the same and it’s just different marketing or are they actually different? How is there different versions of it like an IPS or a VA? How does that work? How does it compare to something like OLED or QLED?

    I see. Yeah it’s super confusing, but thanks for the explanations, really appreciate it. I wish microLED would be ready, cause right now there sadly just isn’t anything that can fully rival OLED on the picture quality, there’s a few super rare awesome LEDs out there but none on the level of OLED right now, and again very rare to find.

    I definitely have major concerns about OLEDs as I recently got one and am anxious about that burn in, it’s a monitor and I’ll be using it as any other monitor per my needs so I’m a bit worried haha, I’ll try to take care of it obviously but I still wanna use it as a monitor.

    Should I make another post somewhere asking about OLEDs longevity or?

        They still seem to do if you push them which is what I’m worried about, using one as a PC monitor probably would qualify as you “pushing it” as you’ll inevitably have long periods of static stuff up frequently for hours, my use case definitely leans towards that rather then causal on and off usage.

        it’s definitely gotten better overtime it looks like but it’s still very much a thing which I’m anxious about, not helped by how expensive they are, no idea how it’ll hold up for me.

        Though I heard different organic compounds last longer and behave differently then others, do you know what 4th gen QD-OLEDs use for their pixels?

          I’ve been using the Dell in the video daily for 2 years as a monitor and there is zero burn in. 4th gen has more layers in the oleds so they should have even better durability.

            Congrats! What’s your use case like then? How long is it on for usually? Have you noticed any other issues like dead pixels or dimming or what else?
