I've used OLED on phones (my current, free because cracked screen) and like the idea* but considering I have a super-budget desktop (old stuff, unlikely to upgrade) and keeping it mostly to free/old content I'll stick to whatever low-tier 1080p displays are already in my home.

Maybe OLED multi-touch if it wasn't an upsell and niche market, so realistically when you add in burn-in fear it's either I get some second-hand laptop/tablet that has it (with a bad/no battery) or some new manufacturing tech solves it (either way, probably not for me in the next 10 years).

It might make more sense for VR immersion, though again between cost and specs (cost again) plus whatever lock-in nonsense (which I already saw of the oculus stuff with a family member who likely won't ever unlock dev mode) probably not for me.

* particularly for the contrast ratio (off pixels), though unless you're into horror stuff this seems like a bit of a gimmick (even space content is not a guaranteed fit). It's either that or making my own OLED edits of movies, which I find unlikely to work well via a blind edit (as I don't expect a script to be perfect).
