[TFTCentral] - OLED monitors are getting even better! The latest OLED panel roadmaps and news

By now you might know me as an OLED aficionado (who hasn't bought one yet, due to burn-in and brightness concerns), so I'm naturally posting this.

I'm eyeing these monitors to figure out what I want to upgrade to in the near future. I love my OLED TV and I'd like that same kind of quality in games, but I would like to not have to worry about burn in at all (which is much less of an issue with the way I use my TV)

I had thought about using the OLED monitor just for games, but I can't exactly justify dropping £1k on something I'm only using for games lol

Normally I like buying things second hand as well. That way I can buy second-hand, sell my things to make up for the cost, too. With OLED, second-hand feels risky, due to burn-in again.

yep, I wouldn't want to buy an OLED display second hand without a visual inspection or an iron-clad return policy. However I feel like there is quite a bit of value in OLED TVs to be had out there these days because OLEDs have been around for a while, people might be upgrading and others feel just as apprehensive about used displays. So if you have the time and opportunity to pick one up personally, it might be a great deal

Yup, you're right, I've had OLED TVs in my sight for quite a while. They seem to be ridiculously cheap compared to OLED monitors. Seems like you could get a lot of bang for your buck there. And cheaper OLEDs also mitigate for the burn-in issue somewhat, as you could just buy a new one if it ever becomes unbearable. How have you found things like text rendering to work on the OLED TV?

I haven't tried using an OLED TV for anything other than big screen viewing of video or games, where text clarity is a non-issue
