Sure, eventually. In the meantime videos and games look incredible.

As long as the screen lasts 5+ years, I won’t be too upset.

I mean, I have an OLED monitor that cost like 850. Lasts 5 years and that's 170 bucks a year for an amazing visual experience. Worth it.

Sounds like that'll generate an untold amount of ewaste.

Not like it has a countdown timer to death. Could last 10 years. Every year it just gets that much better of an investment

I bought a top of the line LG OLED in 2020. It is still perfect with no burn in. I know it will come but so far 5 years so I’m not complaining.

The quality of the picture is unparalleled.

Ditto. My TV is 6 years old and looks as good as the day I bought it and better than ANY and ALL LCD tech I've seen. I used to he a sales assistant for an LCD company. Sssssooo $7k LCD looks like shit side by side to a 2019 OLED.
