HP 5K Monitor Released at USD 1200

Quote:All thanks to increased pixel density, which higher resolution tends to bring.

Uhm, no. LCD's biggest problem is their atrocious contrast ratio- this is only compounded by higher pixel density. You are increasing the resolution information available for the eyes but are lacking, by several orders of magnitude, the ability to have proper distinction between colors particularly of varying intensity of light intensity.

This 5K monitor is 217 PPI, I was using a 440PPI display last year- it isn't remotely *close* to the overall picture quality that OLEDs offer.

Quote:Pixel density is what gives 4K its edge over OLED, despite people jumping on OLED as a reason to reject 4K.


That is like saying a gasoline powered car is better than a diesel because it has wider tires. 4K OLEDs have been available for a while now, 4K is just a resolution, OLED is a display type. I have zero interest in buying an archaic LCD because they increased the pixel density. 4K OLED is *VASTLY* superior to 4K LCD- it isn't remotely close. Simply view them side by side, the LCD panel will look like absolute shit.
