Is this the most shitty and overrated modern technology?
Not really. It belongs in the trash bin now that regular LEDs can be printed on 5nm fabs. MicroLED is the true savior from the L*D light leaking menace
OLED was LED's answer to plasma's color range without the disco inferno heat dissipation. Manufacturers never figured out how to make it cheap enough. Looks great in the launch PSVita as maligned as it was.
Don't forget burn-in. Any information on the development stage of microLED?
Levi Collins
IPS is hot trash. There's a reason why it's only used in bargain bin entry level TVs. VA is an incredibly superior technology but the only problem is panel makers don't give a shit about PC monitors so smaller VA panels found in PC monitors hasn't evolved since 2012. TVs using VA panels have 6x the static contrast and routinely feature FALD even on mid-range TVs that start below $1000 and many are native 120hz, though don't have the controller for 4k 120hz because hell HDMI can't even do it anyway. Next year or in 2020 I'm sure we'll start seeing 4k 120hz, especially from OLED
>>still not ready for consumer use >>all products with OLED screens belong to the premium lineups >LG's TVs have hit sub-$2000 >premium
No, it's on the upper end of mid-range. High end is where you start to get into $3000 TVs.

Parker Jones
FALD is a meme, otherwise I agree. There's no point even using full range on an IPS display as the blacks and whites are completely indistinguishable at 1000:1 contrast rates.
Worse blacks and ips glow makes me wish for a tn panel sometimes

FALD isn't a meme for two reasons, though one basically has nothing to do with FALD and how FALD forces manufacturers to implement backlighting.
One is that it forces manufacturers to use proper backlighting, actually lit from the back and not edgelit. I think that speaks for itself, not to say edgelit is always awful but it's more likely to be terrible.
And on high-end TVs the meme actually does work somehow. The Q8F and Z9D see like a 1.5 to 2x improvement in the static contrast ratio checkerboard test. From 5000:1 and 4000:1 respectively to 8000:1 for both TVs. It's pretty good. And then there are the Q9F and Vizio P quantum, which hit over 15000:1 with FALD. This is from RTing's testing but you can walk into any store and see the difference. It's not quite the jump to OLED but you can usually tell the higher end TVs have better contrast than their midrange counterparts, which are already pretty good, even with the bright fluorescent retail store lights.

OLED is just like Plasma, objectively better picture quality than LED but it's held back by price and burn in so it will never be able to match LED in sales because price is the number one thing consumers look at and burn in scares more people awhile.
There is one. One color out of millions possible looks better.
Andrew Price

>not shilling JDI
Aaron Carter
They did solve Plasma's burn-in to an extent, but with OLED it seems they don't give a fuck or it's truly impossible to solve (hence the microLED shilling)
Anthony Wilson
>burn in scares more people awhile. For good reasons, displays are bought to last at least 8 years while oled meme actively reduces expected life to barely 2 years. Who the fuck things that is a good idea?
Luke Butler
OLED is dead once MicroLED screens become a thing.
With OLED it's harder to solve because the burn in happens as a result of each individual element/pixel losing brightness at a different rate, since they're all individual lit. MicroLED promises to have like 1000x the lifetime or something of OLED, and it's the only way to "solve" it, just have ridiculous long life for each element so it takes forever for the burn out to become noticeable.

For TV screens it absolutely is. There's a reason all high-end LCD TVs are using VA panels.

Jack Garcia
Maybe they can record/estimate how much burn-in each individual pixel has experienced over its lifetime, and then adjust each individual pixel according to that.
Also I don't think burn-in happens that locally unless you display the same computer menu all the time. It's not like people still watch TV with their channel logo's.
Joseph King

Doesn’t VA have bad response time compared to ips? Micro LED is our last hope...
>IPS >1000:1 contrast ratio, sometimes even lower No thanks, I love my VA with 3600:1
Andrew Ross
>Doesn’t VA have bad response time compared to ips? That was the old VAs, newer ones have similar(sometimes faster) response time as IPS.

Isaac Brooks
So does VA have really bad ghosting as everyone claims? >inb4 idiots on this website can’t notice it or say 100hz and above is useless
The new Sony TV Master Series uses VAs panels with the same viewing angles as IPS, tho this TVs cost 6000US$+
Carter King
>buy garbage device with garbage implementation of technology >cry about it on the internet Fucking pottery.
Connor Bell
Samsung Note 8 doesn't have that problem. And I use it with GearVR so any such issue would be extremely visible.
Also maybe that's really an issue with the camera rather than the screen?
Jaxson Watson
>VAs panels with the same viewing angles as IPS Literally impossible. Go be a dumb nigger somewhere else.
Juan Flores
Most VAs with ghosting problems are 6bit panels with 8bit FRC. If you want a VA with minimal ghosting make sure the panel is real 8bit( not 6+2bit FRC).
Adam Brown
OLED TVs already have a repair function that does something similar. AH-IPS monitors and some IPS TVs also used to do it. It's not exactly what you're describing, it's dumber than that I think, so it just tries to level out the wear for any pixels.
If they could record/estimate the burn-in for each pixel that would effectively solve OLED's problems with burn-in but I doubt that'll happen any time soon. 4k is over 8 million pixels. It's a lot of stuff to record
Gabriel Sanders
It's barely visible on high brightness, try to lower it, background has to be #ff000000, colors that work best to make this effect appearant are gray and white
Aiden Cook
It's possible with a super expensive polarizer.
Ayden Edwards
How do you think people viewed TN TVs in the mid 2000s in a family room you retard? TVs have been using a variety of view-angle extending techniques for ages
Jordan Turner
>4k is over 8 million pixels. It's a lot of stuff to record
3840 * 2160 * 3 * 8 bytes = 200 MB
Not that much. And thats assuming 64-bit integer for every color of every pixel.
Sebastian Russell
See: youtu.be/zthe_YCbwBA?t=2m6s The chink is a professional calibrator, he knows what he is talking about not like you.
Michael Collins
Same way they viewed awfully scaled SD cable channels: with no regard for image quality.
Henry Gray
That's a lot for a microcontroller. Even if you write it into storage you're putting it in memory first and microcontrollers that drive devices in real time are usually much, much simpler and much weaker than microprocessors/SOCs. There's also the matter of polling for all those pixels and processing the estimated wear before even storing it.
Landon Green
TVs are viewed from a greater distance than monitors, a TN panel won't look that bad in this case
You are missing a factor of 256 in there, the pixel is not just on/off, intensity matters too.
Now its 50 GB.
Anthony Reed
Disregard that, thinking is hard.
Angel Cox
>professional calibrator Topkek. Interesting that they're even bothering trying to improve VA tho. Most consumers don't understand why you could possibly want better viewing than what current VA panels offer - as evidenced by all the Jow Forumstards who don't understand that viewing angels also matter when viewed head on.

>monitor VA worse than TV VA Can you tell me if this monitor has a good panel? smile.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B07BVXGBHT/ It's 32" and released this year. I want to buy a 4K display soon and am considering this one.
Jaxson Miller
True microLED displays probably arent going to be viable. Well any microLED TV will probably be difficult to produce. The large TVs like "The Wall" are "manually" constructed using a robot that places the LEDs onto a giant circuit board. It's not viable for normal TV sizes and Samsung has already said it's a massive roadblock. And on the opposite end they can already easily fabricate microLEDs but they're limited to a few inches. Some Taiwanese company already showed off a 3" that will cost next to nothing and hit 1,000,000 nits of brightness, yet it's not viable at larger sizes.
microLED "backlight" is probably going to be the next hot thing if it's proven to be viable. IIRC some chinese company is already trying microled backlighting for nearly every pixel with a normal TFT plane. Not sure how well that will turn out. There are also companies trying just normal FALD with mini-LED or whatever.
The future will hopefully just be electro-emissive QD
Logan Sanchez
>bargain bin entry level TVs Or pretty much all of LG's non-OLED TVs.
Jace Morgan
Does Samsung still introduce lag on VA panels to combat ghosting? Anyway, no reputable reviews. Buy at your own risk.
Adrian Thomas
Look at the specs. Only 270 cd/m2 and 3000:1 contrast. Seems like Samsung is just phoning it in for monitors because no one cares about home cinema on a monitor. Might as well just get a 144hz IPS or wait for 120hz 4k monitors in 2019.
Mason Long
I want 4K (for work as well as for games) and I don't want to spend more than £400 (£350 preferred). Other than the monitor I linked my other option would be a 43" TV- which would have better contrast, but the lack of freesync and no flicker-free backlight are scaring me away from that approach.
Gavin Foster
How can anyone say this kind of stupid shit? IPS looks washed out compared to OLED.
Sebastian Ortiz
>Only 270 cd/m2 and 3000:1 contrast And already far better than 99% of IPS monitors
Robert Barnes
At that price point just get it. Even a decent TV starts at like 700. And those 4k 120hz monitors next year will probably start at over $1000.
James Martin
UHD@120Hz can hardly be considered bad. The only reason you can't input it is because there's no interface in the market that supports it with a single cable. The panels have been 120Hz for a while now, and most manufacturers let you input 120Hz on FHD.
Aiden Campbell
They only have shit low-tier models outside their OLED lineup, and that's for a reason.
Nathaniel Cruz
Are there any OLED monitors around 27" at 2160p resolution, and possibly with a higher refresh rate than 60Hz that aren't super expensive?
James Wood
the best TV tech already came and went: plasma. it died just as it has become pretty much perfect too.
VA used to have pretty bad ghosting. my old VA in the early 2010s did. my ssamsung VA I'm using right now has none. it also does 144hz, freesync, backlight strobing, it's as fast as any monitor I've ever used
Jacob Thompson
talk about braindead...
Andrew Mitchell
OLED TV's have better black levels..but they suffer from burn in too kek
Grayson Morgan
>Bzzzzzzzzzz I still use mine but don't pretend they're perfect. I'd say buzz and image noise are the biggest problems, and the latter is a minor one to me. Image quality is obviously far superior to anything but OLED.
