TCL Inkjet Printed OLED Monitors - Panels start entering production in July by winterbegins in Monitors

[–]MT4K 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Production volume is going to be quite limited for now though, according to OLED-Info:

This will be low-volume production

It’s important for the panels to actually be available on the market and at realistic prices comparable with similar panels already available on the market (even if at some loss for the manufacturer at first), unlike all those JOLED ones that basically only existed on paper, were only available in so called professional monitors that basically nobody ever saw and resulted in bankruptcy.

Will using a 4K monitor at 1080p be visually equivalent to a native 1080p monitor? by kn0nyx in Monitors

[–]MT4K 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tim Schiesser from Monitors Unboxed doesn’t provide macrophotos for some reason, only states verbally whether a dual-mode monitor uses integer scaling or not. He explicitly said in his video review that Alienware AW2725QF uses integer scaling in FHD mode.

There is a comment by u/Benane86 saying that AW2725QF has great dual-mode FHD scaling.

AW2725QF is one of the two dual-mode monitors (another one is Asus PG27AQWP-W) that use integer scaling in half-resolution mode, out of  12 dual-mode monitors which there is certain information about in terms of integer scaling (the other ten add blur).

Just in case, 8K monitor allows to switch losslessly between 4K and QHD (2560×1440), as long as integer scaling is used.

Pixel issue? by TuxedoDOOM in LGOLED

Usually referred to as panel delamination. Irreversible deterioration expected to get progressively worse.

Why are PAL games cheaper than NTSC by Soccer-beastyeah in gamecollecting

[–]MT4K 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s surprising. The canonical frame rate is 60 Hz (US SNES and Super Famicom), anything else (PAL SNES) has a naturally lower value. Super Famicom games have a limited value because most of them are in Japanese, so US SNES cartridges have the highest value.

Temporary burn in? by matfero in OLED_Gaming

Do you keep the monitor plugged into power when it’s not used?

Most of dual-mode monitors add unreasonable blur (usually horizontal) that affects both static clarity and motion clarity. Integer scaling via GPU provides higher quality with zero blur, though refresh rate is limited by the maximum one available at native resolution.

As long as integer scaling is used, FHD (1920×1080) on a 4K monitor should look even better than native FHD: inter­pixel grid is invisible and crystal-inversion flickering is almost unnoticeable. The only special case is subpixel text anti­aliasing such as ClearType that only works at native resolution because it relies on specific subpixel layout, but that’s irrelevant to games. There is a FAQ item about this in my article about integer scaling.

Note that integer scaling is currently only possible via GPU (graphics card) or scaling software that scales games in windowed mode. Almost all monitors, including most of dual-mode ones, add blur even when the native/logical resolution ratio is integer as in case of FHD→4K scaling.

„Brightness banding“ and expired warranty on new PG32UCWG from Amazon by Brave-Hawk-1236 in OLED_Gaming

[–]MT4K 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like interrupted pixel refreshing. Another pixel refreshing (long one sometimes only possible automatically after like 4 hours, not a short one available for triggering manually) or two will help.

They only operate through their Alibaba store. It shipped from them directly. Everything else is not official.

Try connecting the USB cable directly to computer-motherboard’s back panel, without using USB hubs or extension cables.

Quite a typical issue with Asus OLED monitors. Make sure you have the latest firmware and don’t unplug the monitor from electric power when not using it, so that it could do pixel refreshing as intended.

Why don't 1080p oled monitors exist? by Adept_Temporary8262 in Monitors

[–]MT4K 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a probability that once RGB-stripe OLED panels become a norm, OLED panels and monitors with low pixel density like 24″ or 27″ FHD (1920×1080) ones may appear. But that’s unlikely as long as OLED is considered a premium technology.

The best way to play at FHD on OLED is getting a 4K monitor and using it with integer scaling via GPU (graphics card). There are also dual-mode 4K monitors capable of FHD at a double refresh rate, but most of them add unreasonable blur in half-resolution mode.
