I'm excited to eventually see gaming monitors with this technology. People are waiting on OLED monitors. But I think the potential "burn-in" has caused the delay of them significantly. With mLED coming, I think manufacturers will completely skip OLED ones.

My main hope on microLED's is that they enable a very large screen (at least 85-106") with cost that in linear in proportion to the size instead of exponential. I'd prefer to not have a projector as it's very clear that the image quality suffers vs. typical TV options these days. But, going above 80" in a TV the price jumps in quantum leaps (due to manufacturing issues that the mLED appears to side-step). I am not planning to make the leap to 4K in my theater until my PJ dies and I have to do something and even then - I'd prefer a reasonable cost non-PJ but very large display.

Since microLED's are capable of maintaining or improving upon the contrast levels that LED's are already known for and accomplish black levels that OLED's are known for, this seems to be a win-win in the contrast & blacks department.

Mark I find the idea that "MicroLED TVs can be made up of a number of smaller panels, and then attached together to form a bigger screen.", quite intriguing for those of us that have been constrained in the size of panel or in projector image(like you Mark). Lets hope this technology come to fruition in the near future. |

Very much this. I would like to get an 80" panel, but it's insane how much more one has to pay for that. My main hope on microLED's is that they enable a very large screen (at least 85-106") with cost that in linear in proportion to the size instead of exponential. I'd prefer to not have a projector as it's very clear that the image quality suffers vs. typical TV options these days.

I am not planning to make the leap to 4K in my theater until my PJ dies and I have to do something and even then - I'd prefer a reasonable cost non-PJ but very large display. Mark I wonder if this would allow one to make displays with different aspect ratios. Would the same panels allow me to make a 16:9 or a 21:9 display? Hopefully we see curved variants as well. I know curved died as mostly a gimmick in TVs, but for gaming monitors it's really picking up in popularity. |
