I'm knocking on wood because so far I've avoided the dead pixels completely, along with burn-in. Still hoping it lasts until something in the 50-55" size comes out that is an actual improvement. Brighter HDR, higher refresh rate would do it for...

Meh. Hard to see, but it does possibly look a bit better? I'm in the same boat as you. I have a pretty high hour count on my CX and have been using it without ASBL for probably a couple of years now with OLED light set to 30 unless in HDR. There...

Update! Not really any difference to be honest. Maybe it's a little more blurry but I'm not positive on that. Camera angle is a little different but when zooming I am able to make out the same things. OLD: NEW: BONUS, hp bars on green ...

I'll run it later and let you guys know.

My take on the whole glossy vs matte is that I don't care as long as matte coating is not the awfully grainy type seen on some displays. I don't mind the one on my dual Samsung G70A 4K 28" IPS displays. All the other stuff are going to be more...

Absolutely. 8K would be better off marketed and designed for e.g programmers, stock traders, people managing a ton of different Excels and so on who need a lot of desktop space for work, and would probably pay for the right product, say a 55-65"...

Agreed, like most of the so called reviews so far to be honest.

Scaled Resolution Editor is the best option for anything that uses DSC.

I'd go for it. I'm thinking it's what the manual option is for. That said, we don't know how much runway the display actually has left as you indicate. It might not work. And of course, you should only do what you're comfortable doing.

I would expect the 5000 series to silently upgrade the HDMI capabilities to match the 7900 XTX, maybe with a full speed DP 2.1 port unless Nvidia decides to nickel and dime us again. I expect the answer to the second question is no. Samsung is...

Seems like a typical bullshit review with nothing but subjective opinions almost parroting marketing material.

Yeah I'd probably just try running the pixel refresher manually and hopefully it will get rid of current burn-in instead of waiting for it to have lingered there for longer. Extra 1000h is quite a bit of time after all.

I'd go with #3. We might get 45" 5120x2160 OLEDs in early to mid 2025, so that would solve the PPI issue at least.

I think that mainly says something about how good the CX series was and how disappointing the updates to these have been in the past few years.

That's nearly two years of on time for the display. I think I checked mine after 3 years and it was like half of that. I would just turn the TV off from the remote when taking a longer break so it would run its compensation cycles if needed. I'd...

That might be the best way to go about it. It will be more blurry of course but should give you some idea.

Unless you are using the 57" purely as a gaming monitor, I'd hate to lose that much pixel density. It's the same height as the 57" but much lower res. Remember that DLSS is also dependent on your native res, so DLSS Quality at 4K (or its...

Yeah a lot of nonsense especially in phones. I currently use a Samsung Galaxy Fold 4, and it's a really chunky phone when folded, but it feels fine to hold in your hand because it's quite narrow physically, no wider than an iPhone 12 Mini, just...

Probably because it's cheaper to make and ship because it takes less space and weighs less. We have this insane trend of displays, phones and laptops being very thin for no good reason. If you look at reference monitors, they are thick bastards...

To me it's just headroom. I'm currently playing Like A Dragon Infinite Wealth and on my 4090 that runs at 4K 120 fps with Nvidia DLAA. I could probably push it quite a bit further with DLSS and FG but what's the point if your display can't show...
