Acer’s Swift Edge could be the 16-inch OLED laptop we’ve all been waiting for

  I'd love to try out larger OLED monitor sizes, especially on personal computers. I have a 16 inch i9 MBP from the before times (pre M1/M2 Max Plus Ultra Pro+ ) but I feel like OLED screens would degrade faster than normal LSD screens. The iPhone X, which I had at the time, I am pretty sure was the first and last OLED iPhone, and it looked gorgeous, but I do recall a year later there being a ton of graphic / pixel issues in terms of burn in or ghost out or whatever you call the graphical artifacts in the screen after a lot of use.

    I've had 2 Android OLED phones now (one Huawei one Samsung) and neither has suffered any degradation in the display... Seems like it's a solvable problem.

      That's awesome to hear! It 100% could have been my imagination, so I apologize if I was unnecessarily throwing shade at OLED screens.

  A great demonstration of the benefits of avoiding the Intel-tax [1]. Its same priced Intel version has to do without the OLED screen, and without the UHD+ resolution.
