            <title>Can I expect OLED panels on new Laptop?</title>
            <link>http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/4845183</link>
            <description>Hi everyone,&lt;br /&gt;Long story short, I am looking to get a new laptop for my colleague for some video and photo editing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;But my colleague mentioned OLED to me and i&amp;#39;m interested in an OLED screen as well for the image quality and vivid colors, and some vendors have released models with OLED panels.&lt;br /&gt;But I have noticed some reviews mentioned the poor quality control observed on the OLED panels.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href='https://www.ultrabookreview.com/29145-dell-xps-15-7590-oled-review/' target='_blank'&gt;Dell XPS 15 7590 Review (&lt;span style='color:red'&gt;OLED&lt;/span&gt;/i7-9750H/GTX 1650)&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and i stumble upon this &lt;a href='https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/4829414' target='_blank'&gt;&lt;span style='color:blue'&gt;Thread&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt; saying about XPS 15 as well, thanks for the member (ZMFong) who post the link for other XPS 15 it makes my search for other review easier.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is a small issue with this OLED panel that seems to be reported by most users at the comment section of review, and that is a slight graininess or “banding” when displaying certain colors such as lighter shades of grey. The issue seems to be most prominent when displaying the light shade of grey shown below.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;img src='https://www.ultrabookreview.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/IMG_20190719_113237-960x712.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(Image &amp;amp; quote from ultrabookreview)&lt;br /&gt;↑There are some lighting/compression artifacts in this picture, but most of what appears to be dithering is actually banding artifacts from the OLED panel.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;img src='https://www.ultrabookreview.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/IMG_20190723_173819-960x711.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(Image &amp;amp; quote from ultrabookreview)&lt;br /&gt;↑The light “banding” effect in the middle of the screen when displaying darker colours.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The poor quality control observed on the OLED panels I’ve seen in so far is also not something acceptable in a laptop that more often than not will cost around MYR 8,999. Some people may hand-wave these issues, but for me it is like being a professional driver yet driving with a cracked windshield. It taints the experience of everything seen through it, and I would expect better for anything other than a budget laptop.  &lt;!--emo&amp;:shock:--&gt;&lt;img src='http://static.lowyat.net/style_emoticons/default/shocking.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='shocking.gif' /&gt;&lt;!--endemo--&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;From another article an LG OLED TV, sold at a US retailer, has shown signs of burn-in despite likely being on the shelf for only a year and a half.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href='https://www.zdnet.com/article/lg-oled-tv-available-in-us-retailer-show-burn-in/' target='_blank'&gt;https://www.zdnet.com/article/lg-oled-tv-av...r-show-burn-in/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Burn-in refers to permanent image retention usually caused by leaving a static image on the screen for a long period of time. The images are &amp;quot;burnt-in&amp;quot; and are permanently visible, like smudges, when playing other content.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src='https://zdnet1.cbsistatic.com/hub/i/2019/04/16/dacf7bff-75dd-4e11-98fd-733f6032debb/04cc80aee216708e027682105481460a/lg-burn-in-2019-3.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(Image &amp;amp; quote from zdnet)&lt;br /&gt;↑The Dolby logo is clearly visible at the center of LG&amp;#39;s OLED TV.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is anyone has such experience for a laptop with OLED panel ?  &lt;!--emo&amp;:stars:--&gt;&lt;img src='http://static.lowyat.net/style_emoticons/default/rclxub.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='rclxub.gif' /&gt;&lt;!--endemo--&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Or can suggest better a laptop with LED IPS panel choices.&lt;br /&gt;Which one would you buy and why ?  &lt;!--emo&amp;:respect:--&gt;&lt;img src='http://static.lowyat.net/style_emoticons/default/notworthy.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='notworthy.gif' /&gt;&lt;!--endemo--&gt; &lt;br /&gt;</description>
