Samsung Announces Gaming-Grade Notebook Display Panels

Samsung Display has announced that the world's leading certification company SGS certified its laptop OLED for gaming performance, which is featured in Samsung Electronics' latest laptop Galaxy Book Pro and Galaxy Book Pro 360. According to SGS's test results, the new Samsung Display OLED showed the blur length below 1.4 mm and the moving picture response time below 15.4 ms, both of which are crucial to enjoying dynamic and fast-paced action games. An LCD laptop with identical specs showed the maximum 2.1 mm blur length and the 26.4 ms moving picture response time. Its HDR contrast ratio, which quantifies the sharpness and the depth of an image, resulted in over 1,000,000:1.

According to Samsung Display, fast-paced video games that require higher performance often suffer degradations in image quality when played on a display with a long blur length, which could harm user experience. OLED has a very wide range of contrast thus offers more immersive gaming experience for consumers who favor dynamic, flamboyant games, Samsung Display says.
The new Samsung Display OLED for laptop is also certified for cinematic experience with its wide color gamut (120% of DCI-P3) and its low-luminance expression capability below 0.0005 nits. "As people spend more time home, laptop has become the go-to device not only for web-surfing and word-processing but also for watching movies and sports game and playing video games," Choi Soon-ho, director at Samsung Display said. "OLED is the very display that could meet consumers' various needs"

oh yeah baby ~ make the price right ~ so I can snuggle with this at night

why 15 ms latency???? I thought OLED had like 0.1 ms latency... I am so confused... @R-T-B

Shouldn't the title have OLED in it? This seems like a very important detail.

MPRT is not latency. It is basically sample and hold time, in this case probably a 60Hz panel, so 15.4ms is good. Ideal would be 16.6ms without backlight shenanigans (which OLED cannot do in the same way).
From their press release:
Motion Picture Response Time is an international standard for display's response speed derived by measuring time for a single frame's afterimage to disappear.

Start saving. I doubt these will be cheap.

Indeed , he is confusing response time with latency but still he has a point . 15,4ms of response time is way too high for ''gaming'' panel especially an OLED panel which should sit around 0,2ms . Panel running at 60Hz doesn't change that fact as this should only have an impact on inverse ghosting compared to the same panel running at let's say 120Hz or more . Just to put things into perspective a decent 1440p pannel sits between 4-6ms of response time . So yeah i don't know whats going on with that OLED panel .

MPRT is not response time and it does not really affect ghosting. MPRT is how long a pixel (or a frame to simplify) gets shown. It is about persistence and kind of a measure of motion blur on sample-and-hold displays. This motion blur is much less straightforward to measure than response time and different people tend to have different sensitivity for it.

If those OLED 60Hz comes at the same price of, saying, a 120 or 180 IPS, i cannot see the point. Unless the come to more versatile products that has lower power and can be used for general multimedia, like a slim 14 gaming note.

Deeper blacks and with good material it is like looks through a very clean window. Vidoe is taking over from the printed word.

Latency is not pixel response time.

I am slightly confused though as it seems like they blend the two terms together a bit. "blur" sounds a lot like pixel response.

EDIT: The above posters seem to have figured it out.

Emm NO , MPRT stands for ( Motion Picture Response Time ) so you can't say it's not response time , it's right there in the name !

Now with that being said there is indeed a distinction between GtG response time and MPRT ( i made the mistake myself in the previous comment ) but still 16ms is too much when compared to an 120Hz OLED wich would yield around 8,3ms .

Quoting from your source:

Even though GtG can be fast, the MPRT can still be slow. Even for 60Hz OLED displays, the MPRT100% of most 60Hz displays is always at least 1/60sec = 16.7 milliseconds. This creates display motion blur even with instantaneous or near-instantaneous GtG.

From my own experience, 120hz OLEDs are better than 60hz OLEDs.

Yeah basically MPRT doesn't care about GtG it scales with refresh rate . What basically MPRT is saying is that higher framerates reduce motion blur , which is something most peoples know or at least should know . We need 1000Hz to get 1ms MPRT .
