Is OLED monitors putting you on the edge?

[xynerial]

The GTX 1080ti released recently for 4K gaming, if you buy it, you will go out and buy a monitor with:

Resolution: 4K
Feature 1: HDR
Feature 2: 75hz? 120hz? 144hz? 244hz? does it matter lol?
Feature 3: ??? --->OLED???---> Missing
Feature 4: Gsync or Vsync
Feature 5: Widescreen curve or flat 32 in"+

So you will buy a monitor and it will includes all the features except feature 3. What if you bought such a monitor now...and then next years they release a monitor with all the features INCLUDING feature 3?? will you feel bad about your buy this year?

I could really care less if it OLED, LED or CFL. I just want it to be 4K, at least 30", display at least 100% Adobe RGB and have a low Delta E. Freesync would be nice as it doesn't require licensing fees (which will ultimately kill GSync).

You'll never own any nice electronics if you always worry about what will be out next year. The only time I wait is if a product is confirmed with a release date in a few months and expensive. Assuming I have not pressing need to buy now. Even then I'll probably buy the old product at a reduced price. Unless there is some major new must have feature. I'd rather save money and buy something with lots of user reviews and is time tested. Rather than buy something brand new which may be a piece of crap.

By the way 4K OLED is already on the market. You just have to be willing to pay for it.

Can you show me a link to a site that sells what you claim? ...and as for not caring for if it's OLED then why care if it's 4K? both features pertains to making things look better and OLED is supposed to be the best of the best, I have never hear anyone mention anything like this "Adobe RGB" thing in the center of a talking point of an articles that advice about which is the best display to buy.

Seriously, this adobe RGB thing is interesting, I only care about buying what's the best in the catagory I'm interested in. I've always hear "OLED is the best compared to X", yet a simple keyword into Google "Adobe RGB vs OLED" yield no such comparison to see which dominates the other. It's the same thing with the "Delta E. Freesync" too, I've never heard such comparison articles mentioning such things.

Next up would be, what's superior? "Oled or Qleds".

Seriously, when you want to buy a display, you read review articles that list all the best features, and the features I see mention are what is mentioned in the original post, anything else you've mention is simply invisible and doesn't help buying decision.

Adobe RGB is the actual visible color spectrum of a display device. Not just what the specs claim but a quantifiable observation of visible color. Adobe sRGB is mentioned a lot but it is a milestone of displaying the visible color spectrum. 100% sRGB coverage is quite common now except in the cheapest of screens. 100% Adobe RGB is an even loftier goal which more monitors are capable of displaying. Adobe sRGB covers 35% of visible colors as identified by CIELAB colorspace and Adobe RGB covers 100%.

Whether it is OLED, LED, CFL. It does not matter. All that matters is which will provide the the most accurate colors, uniform screen and widest gamut. Perhaps OLED will do a better job than a high grade IPS LED panel. The point being it doesn't matter which tech drives the panel. Just which tech produces the best results.

An OLED display won't necessarily be superior to an IPS LED. It all depends on the quality of the panel and the materials used. OLED promises the potential capability of producing more colors and more accurate colors. It will depend on the actual quality of design, manufacturing process and materials used.

I'd want 4K over a lower resolution because it is a sharper image. I also want it over 30" because I want to actually be able to read text and Windows high DPI scaling isn't particularly consistent.

Best buy has a bunch of 4K OLED TVs. A TV is just a monitor with more inputs and better speakers.
