Why are OLED TVs still so god damn expensive? The entire pitch of OLED was first around "dude we can just print them, they're gonna be dirt cheap!"

>$1700 for a top of the line 65 inch TV
>expensive
Jason Watson
>lasts less than 2 years because of degradation of subpixels.
Jeremiah Young
you could leave it on the entire two years and it'd have no visible degradation
Logan Jenkins
WRONG!.
>red subpixels die
>everything is now blue/green
>red subpixels are so dim that correcting the balance means almost turning off the blue/green subpixels
>screen is now as dim as a Gameboy

Because microled is coming,gotta make the price stay up goy before we can overcharge you for microled.

The inkjet-printing OLED fabs aren't online yet. Once they are, expect prices to drop.

what is the current process

why is it taking so long? and how much longer will it take? what was the problem?
Charles Jenkins
Technical hurdles finding suitable materials, among other things: oled-info.com
Also it costs like a billion dollars to build a fab, not something you can just knock together in a weekend with a few buddies

they've been at this since forever though

The red sub pixels are the most sturdy. It’s the blue that die, but they require 20k hours to degrade to 50%

OLED is going the way of plasma it seems as Microled is better positioned for mass production
Anthony White
Very little point in 8K when most people are watching compressed 1080p (or worse)
Jace Bennett
Samsung's Q9S does a really good job of upscaling
Camden Gonzalez
>Microled is better positioned for mass production
Not any time soon it's not.
Luis Perez
this is bullshit, even normies have 4K now, plus people who actually work with video would profit from 8K screens. either way, doesn't change the fact that OLEL is lagging behind.
Evan Gutierrez
Neat. I'll take the superior black level of OLED at 4K over upscaled 8K LCD any day of the week.
Caleb Nguyen
why not OLED and 8K? oh wait, you can't.
Isaiah Flores
So it will be the superior technology even a decade beyond?
