LG 34" Ultrawide 240 Hz OLED. Coming from a Dell 1440p 144 Hz TN panel that I bought 7 years ago saying the difference is night and day is an understatement. This thing feels so big and the colors are fantastic.

Niiiice.. I understand OLED has better contrast, but so far I've never seen one comparison where two different monitors display the same wallpaper.
When it's side-by-side like this, the OLED makes the TN panel looks archaic
I assume you got the OLED panel before tariff increase?
The other monitor is actually a Dell IPS with some serious backlight bleed, I have another that isn't as bad that I will switch to. Actually got a really good deal on it, ordered directly from LG and regular price is $1299 and they had it on sale for $799 with a code for an additional 20% so I got it for $640.Niiiice..

How are OLED with text and especially coding ? I read/see here and there that subpixel layout ain't optimal, but how bad is it in real-life ?
I had heard the same thing and was worried about it but honestly the text looks fine. I don't do any coding so can't comment on that but the text on this forum looks normal to me.
These newer high-density OLEDs are fine for text....just beware using them for focused productivity with static UI--you'll cause image permanence over time.
That, on the other, hand is a deal-breaker for me and it's depicted as "a thing from the past". Burn-in still is a thing with OLED ? Yt videos about it says it's a non-issue but I'd prefere to be on the safe side.
I don't care about the inky black or high refresh rate ... my only appeal for OLED is the garanteed absence of bleeding, due to how it works. Have add 2 IPS with serious bleeding and it is super distracting.
All panels will burn-in sooner or later, just look at any airport flight-status monitor bank. OLEDs, because of their construction, are a bit more prone to it. HardwareUnboxed did a year-long 8+ hour/day worst-case only-productivity test on one of the new 240Hz 4K QD OLEDs. It honestly turned out quite good considering they knowingly and intentionally were abusing the panel.
Whoa that's like 50% discount! Pretty much a must buy, especially if you're looking for a monitor. That makes it very decent for a 4K, 34 inch OLED monitor.
Well I won the lottery....scored a 5080, at proper $999 MSRP at my local WorstBuy. It only took 7 months. Finally can drive my bloody 240Hz 4K OLED monitor properly
