LG is playing dumb here with the 800r curvature. Its the most atrocious of them all and it's purpose is to be avoided like a plague by anyone who won't go sims, so the the burn-in returns /warranty claimes will be at minimum.

Shame.

Innovation awards ahead of the show with a technology that Samsung has launched over a year ago? Sounds like a paid partnership. Also, OLED is terrible for productivity (poor text readability) and has limited lifetime and burn-in. This tech needs to be replaced widespread by miniled or the upcoming microled ASAP.

Samsung launched QD-OLED panels at the same time LG launched its first MLA panel. This is not the same tech behind Samsung monitors and for WOLED panels there are burn-in prevention routines that are a lot more effective than what exists for QD-OLEDs. So your first mistake is assuming that there is a conspiracy because is recycling something from Samsung while being praised for it: wrong.

MiniLED have existed for a lot longer than OLEDs, even in the monitor space. They suffer from eccessive blooming, excessive power consumption, overheating, they're heavy and they cost a lot more than OLEDs to produce while offering atrocious panel latency and limited contrast.

MicroLED is the only tech that can substitute OLED in terms of quality and enjoyment, and it's still many years away from being produced at reasonable costs. Yeah, OLEDs are not the safest choice for productivity because of possible burn-in...but these are gaming panels, the focus here is not coding or spending days on Photoshop...you can buy already a miniLED panel for that but at the cost of not having a good HDR experience under 1,600$.

Have a read around before saying random stuff under a piece of news.
