Still, it shouldn't run like that without any way to postpone it. Coz - see my argument above - what if at this very moment you're doing sth really important?
Three days, my dude. I listed an absurd scenario because that's what it takes to cause this to happen. I'm 100% going to victim blame here because he sounds like a guy who gets mad that his car runs out of gas but refuses to let anyone fill it up.
Sorry but I'm gonna take some burn-in over screwing up my important zoom call. Even if it's coz monitor didn't manage to enter standby mode in the last 3 days
If you actually never let your monitors or computer sleep 24/7, do not buy an OLED. There, I made it easy for you. If your monitor sleeps for even 10 minutes a day, then you'll never have a problem. Like that's way off at the end of the bell curve. If you're that heavy of a user, you should already know that OLED isn't for you. And it's not like OLED is cheap, either, so you're not going to accidentally buy a $200 OLED monitor without realizing it doesn't fit your use case. They're in the highest price bracket for monitors, which is going to scare away casual users regardless.
Also why you riding Samsung OLEDs so hard today? Is it buyers remorse or what?
Name one other post where I've talked about them in the past 3 months. Go ahead and dig if you'd like.
It's not just samsung, though. I also have LG OLEDs. Turns out the tech is just really good. I understand if you don't get it, though. It probably means you don't own one.
"If you actually never let your monitors or computer sleep 24/7, do not buy an OLED."
What if I'm a super rich streamer like the guy above? And it's the first time I'm hearing about an OLED manufacturer forcing a pixel refresh like that btw, even tho OLED has been around for over a decade at this point.
If you're rich and you buy shit with a high price tag because "I hear it's good", then the relative value of the thing you purchase is less. Not doing literally any research on a product doesn't excuse you from any associated drawbacks. No matter how you draw this, it's an L on pika, and I like pika.
What? Drawbacks? So are you implying it's my fault for buying faulty product (i.e. with forced refresh, i.e. while you're doing something on the computer without the possibility to schedule it for later) coz I didn't do the research or are you a bit dumb and didn't get I was talking about FORCED refresh. I'm fine with doing the refresh myself or when monitor is in stand-by mode. It's just the forced part that's annoying to me.
My dude, the forced refresh is after three days of the monitor not even idling. Tell me that's a realistic scenario.
If you let your PC idle for even 10 minutes during that time, say when you're sleeping or making food or going out or any random thing, you will not be forced to do anything.
Out of curiosity tho, since you mentioned LG. Do LG's QD-OLEDs also do that forced refresh (not in standby but even if you're doing something at this very moment, like fighting a boss in-game so there is no chance of PC going into sleep mode). Coz honestly it's the first time I'm reading about OLED monitor behaving like that.
