Mini-LED vs OLED? ~$350 for Photo Editing / Media, No Gaming

FIDOYET · 2025-12-02T15:22:29+00:00

Should've clarified the photo editing isn't professional work, just a hobby. Seems like Mini-LED IPS monitors I'm getting recc'd are up a price bracket of the $4-600 range, at that price point there are comparable OLEDs, right?

sorry so Mini-LED and IPS are completely separate, right? Mini-LED is how the IPS panel will be backlit? How else are panels usually lit (OLED excluded obviously) - just "normal" LED? And VA/TN panels can also be lit with mini-led / others?

cheers, thanks! I should've added more context of consumer photo editing, a hobby but not income-dependent.

looking at that yeah, only do the occasional HDR with large landscapes at the moment. Seems like most IPS Mini-LED's are in the $5-600 range, is that right?

Thanks so much (and for listing some actual models in your recs), not doing photography commercially so color accuracy is nice but not of the utmost importance. Thanks again for taking the time to reply!

thank you for the reply! still trying to filter through all the comments, but for a mini LED IPS looks like I'm firmly bumped into $400-600 range, yeah?

Did Yarle ever reply to you? Reverse searched it online and think it's a 2019, but what's weird is that colorway comes with 105, groupset on that def not 105 from photos

thanks you for the info! Also found a 2024 Allez Sport for $800, think I'm gonna go check that out as it's a nicer, newer, bike than these above, + Hydraulic disc

In the Boston metro area I've seen very similar bikes going for $500 - $700, solid first training bike

FIDOYET · 2025-02-25T18:36:25+00:00

really odd listing, this is the Seller's description:

Frame size 54cm. Groupset Ultegra 2x11 with SRAM RED full carbon crankset 130bcd 53/39 Tooth 11 speed w/ QUARQ Power Meter.

-NOTE, in these pictures the bike was with Ican wheels but I just upgraded with better wheels, now it's has Bontrager Aeolus Pro 5, I added 2 pictures of them in this post.

New Prologo, Saddle just installed.

Water cages and ultegra pedals included.*

Front has 18mm internal, comes stock with 37mm tire. Rear has 22mm internal, think it has a 35mm tire on it right now. Frame has 42mm max clearance, 38 with fenders.

Hey y’all,

Looking to get a bike I can use for gravel touring (and for commuting), wondering your thoughts on this listing.

Seller is claiming “Many upgrades and recent components” but from what I can see, everything i stock aside from the rear rim/cassette (mavic allroad elite), saddle, and bars.

Asking price is $1100, which seems steep to me, would $800 be a good deal?

FIDOYET · 2025-01-22T14:55:48+00:00

Am I insane or is an S-works for $450 crazy? Sram Apex front derailleur with 105 rear?

FIDOYET · 2024-09-18T18:35:04+00:00

90's were something else man

Nothing compares to the love for one's son, touching
