On OLED monitors the pixels displaying black are turned off, therefore blacks are actually black. Coupled with true HDR it's a very striking display. Drawback is cost and they tend to suck for work due to a variety of factors like peak brightness.

I want to get an OLED monitor, but it seems like a lot of care and effort need to be done to prevent burn in. A miniLED monitor would work fine

Rabid-GNN@reddit

Newer OLED monitors have self care features that will do a lot of that effort for you. The biggest one mine has is the pixel cleaning feature where it’ll black out the screen for 6 minutes. But the amount of time it takes for your monitor to automatically do that is so long that that at that point you personally should shut off the computer or just take a break anyways I also am personally not worried as I have new responsibilities that take away my screen time and newer physical hobbies as well

Maximus-CZ@reddit

Its not cleaning by just letting the screen rest for 6 mins. Its doing a lot of self-measurements and re-calibrating in those 6 mins.

Correct. The cleaning feature takes like an hour.

It really isn't an issue for regular use, unless you have static pixels for an eternity, so if you're using it for a PC maybe have the task bar on auto hide, everything else should change enough to never be a real issue.

Also if you work, the taskbar at the bottom pretty much stays there which would also be a problem. Lots of extra work for black to look a little bit darker

Are you also worried about your iPhone having burn in? Like every iPhone since the 10 has had an oled screen, and literally nobody complains about burn in. If oleds were as bad as people like to think they are, then iPhones would have crazy burn in because of the Home Screen bar, the keyboard, and even basic app structures following a templated design Yet this does not happen. People hear one thing about something, they don’t look into it, or know anything about it other than that one specific thing downside, and then they go and preach it to everyone like it’s their personal truth

I’m not worried about anything because nothing matters. But OLED phones and tablets absolutely do experience burn in. It’s not common because most people endlessly scroll but it is possible.

Got 40,000 hours on my oled tv with no burn in.

It looks like the first oled monitors were released around 2010, but those were designed for professional video editors and were very expensive. Consumer oled monitors started coming out around 2015-2016. Also burn-in was a much bigger issue on older oleds than it is now.

Now only if I can get HDR and black levels right on a game or in windows itself when watching movies. Every game, video file, media play software and windows itself does it differently. And every TV panel is slightly different. If I manage to get Cyberpunk looking good, my windows looks to dark and thus every movie I try to watch. And stuff like Halo 3 gets dark shadows so when an opposing player is in the dark parts, you don't see him as clearly.

Yeah, we have Barco monitors at work that look incredible, and they're IPS or some other type of TFT. They're also like $10k because they're for radiology and medical devices are always outrageously expensive, but I'm sure you can get similar monitors that are much cheaper and don't have all the certifications needed for medical imaging.
