I love OLED and can’t go back, hoping that we enter uniform OLED adoption at some point. I’d like to see them focus on lowering the price and raising the longevity of OLED displays. Doubt it on that first one though. Kind of a tangent but I also want to see what the future of e-ink displays are, especially with better colors and refresh rate.
Call me batshit insane, I want them to figure out dual stack displays.
OLED for watching, E-Ink for showing art when the TV is off like Samsung's 'Frame TV', but lower in power consumption and more life-like, both in the same TV set.
I've steered away from OLED thus far due to concerns about burn-in. It just isn't something I want to have to deal with.
It's bad enough that I need to worry about write cycles on SSDs, but the advantage over HDDs is so overwhelming that I deal with it.
Longevity is a very important criteria for me, as I tend to upgrade infrequently and buy near top of the line for its time.
Mini LED is the way to go for longevity imo.
I play Guild Wars 2, and I'm worried if I bought an OLED I would end up with the UI permanently burned in. The technology just doesn't seem compatible with games that feature a persistent UI.
My OLED is going on 8 years now and it has no signs of burn in. I don't watch TV with permanent station logos though, if that is something that your OLED would have to withstand
