The advantage of this TV/monitor is definitely the display of multimedia images (games, movies). Of course it wants to feed at least full HD movies, ideally 4K. Games are a blast on this TV, and with instant response and no blurring, I also get the impression of better 3D perception and a more believable picture. The colors need a little tweaking to keep them from being over saturated, but the result is amazing. It should be taken into account that the display is protected (it darkens very quickly if the image is stiff), you need to use various motion videos and screensavers to avoid burning the image. Forget about working with graphics, excel etc, OLED is not suitable for that. If you want this as a great monitor for your Xbox or PC and you'll be using it for games and movies, go for it you won't regret it. The icing on the cake is the ambilight, which is great, except for two things. I have the TV on the wall and the bottom backlight is just missing. given the price, all OLEDs should automatically have a 4-wall ambilight. The second thing that annoys me and cannot be changed is that ambilight has several modes that are fixed to the picture mode. It is possible to switch them, but after the signal is detected again, it returns to the predefined one.
Semi-gloss panel (much less glare compared to glossy irides)
OLED finished black
Best sharpness and speed for games
Easily play Netflix, HBO, Youtube
Ambilight (but could be 4-way)
The biggest weakness is the white colour
Not suitable for windows work
Display darkens after a few tens of seconds of inactivity
Cannot hard select ambilight mode, switching is temporary until next power on/signal detection
