Are you joking? ...he asks seriously.

Who asks what? I have no idea what are you trying to say.

What's this OLED thing? Some new revolutionary panel technology?

Well Google is your friend, OLED is Organic Light Emitting Diode and it has been in development as the next best thing in the area of screens for some time now.
Lots of benefits, true black levels (leds are just turned off), better energy consumption, thinner, but there is some talk of burn in issues.

There was a few years ago some development in Laser screens with very interesting benefits of its own (most notably no quality fall off during the years of usage) but it seems that at least for now that has ceased.

Google didn't give me any meaningful answers, which is why I asked.
Looks like we're in for a long wait, just like 60+Hz IPS panels.

Yes, earlier models of PS Vita used OLED screens and had burn in issues. They switched to LCD in later revisions.

I wonder if OLED tech have matured enough by now to solve the burn in issue. Or simply OLED smart phones don't exhibit the issue because of battery saving screen power management.
