    actually the price isn't too bad. i was expecting $6k - $7k for this kind of display

    even better news is that LG is scaling up (from phone format) this OLED technology with a far finer pitch than TV OLEDs.
    i would hope to see 27"-38" displays in the Ultra Gaming series in the next year or so.
    given the price premium for fast HDR monitors, these OLEDs would slide right in and offer a performance level currently unseen in the market loaded with top heavy expensive work-arounds to OLED (i see you ROG and your mini-leds)

    this is not a gaming monitor 60Hz is fine.
    this is for art directors, graphic artists, film & tv production, etc...

    As tunejunky said, consumers in the gaming market are not the target audience. For the market this monitor is aimed at, this is pretty good.

    This is great to see. I hope that in the next few years we will see OLED panels in the gaming market because that would be super exciting. Maybe a year or two after the new DisplayPort standards land? Still, nice to see progress in the monitor sphere again.
