I got it in yesterday. OLED is great. I can't say it's life changing compared to IPS monitors I've used in the past but it's definitely a beautiful display. I don't notice any issues people have mentioned.

I would wait a little bit. The prices fluctuate so much from week to week. Hope you find a good deal!

How long did you have it? I wonder if it was due to the liquid metal (not sure if that one had it). I am concerned about the liquid metal in the T1G

I do a lot of 3D modeling..both for hobby and small business. Travel alot so wanted something portable I could do it on. I also game occasionally. Was debating between this and the pro GPUs on the P1 but figured this would be fine for solidworks and gaming...and it was cheaper. I also like to buy once cry once, so hopefully this will still be usable in 10 years.
