\>The colors: Identical in a normal environment, OLED does not stand out AT ALL other than the blacks/contrast, which if there is a little light in your room, forget about the blacks, the IPS defends itself better in any type of environment and its colors are incredible What? I've compared multiple OLEDs to multiple high to mid-high end IPS and this has not been my experience *at all.* In fact comparing both an ASUS and Dell OLED to an MSI nano-IPS and an Acer IPS, the difference in color is mind-blowing even in full light conditions (and not just to me but to other friends and family who have seen them). \>The blacks: They are impressive BUT only with the dark room, that is, I have to go into the batcave, in the dark, away from the light to be able to appreciate the blacks, since if not, it looks gray (worse than in the IPS) Again, from my experience, this is wildly overblown. Yes, dark rooms will make the difference better. But people act like having the slightest light completely washes them out. I'm sitting now in a fully lit room, and the difference is noticeable. \>I think the problem is that many people compare a cheap TN or IPS monitor versus OLED but when you try a well-configured and high-end IPS VS an OLED you realize what a stupid difference there is. It seems IPS fanboys try really hard to convince themselves that they don't see bleed and their colors are top notch... IPS has advantages, but those listed above aren't them.
