This is what I have. Far from the best but it was a huge leap over my old 1080p Acer.

Looks great, I think a hidden factor that a lot of people don’t know about is the .5ms referring to the GTG scale. Having that a low as possible helps having a responsive monitor.

OLED is an amazing technology, but it really doesn’t belong with gaming most of the time. The added cost rarely translates to a measurable improvement in gaming experiences. OLED is priceless for color accuracy - so if you’re a photo or video editor, you get OLED. If you play games, you get a high-quality IPS panel.

I have only had the pleasure of using an OLED monitor a handful of times. It made my current monitor feel like i was playing on a Gameboy Advanced SP screen.

I’m stick with my MSI 40" 155 Hz IPS UWQHD for now at least until OLED come down in price. It seems they have solved the burn in problem

check this monitor out

500 fps OLED. I’d definitely say it has great stats, but whether it’s worth it depends on pricing for the individual

This monitor here is an OLED dual mode monitor if you’re interested. i think OLED is pretty good to have, but like people have been saying here, pricy
