LG Reveals Full Specifications and Pricing for the 4K UltraGear 32GS95UE-B OLED Monitor

Care to link this article/video?

Because from what i saw they made a mistake testing the first gen 16:9 QD-OLED monitor by not running fullscreen content there.
Thus the sides that were black exhibited no wear but the center was driven harder.

They mention what you're pointing out, but it hardly makes a difference to the wear characteristics overall. Look at 10:00
 
Rtings already confirmed QdOled wears faster and in doing so also has color deviation.
At the pace this is moving, a test from a couple of generations ago may not be relevant today.
And tbh, I was expecting QD-OLED to have less color deviation. Since it employs just a single backlight color, you'd think it would be simpler to manage.
 
give it a year and it will be on sale for 2/3 its current price. 900-1000 I expect, when that day comes I will probably grab one. but we will see, I wasn't expecting handheld gaming to change everything for me... so really I am not sure I will ever own a desktop again. Steam Deck OLED in HDR mode Ori and the Will O The Wisps = literally incredible experience, and being able to play in a hammock or in bed is just icing on the cake.

I am kind of tired of sitting at a desk all the time.

QD OLED biggest flaw is the lack of technologies to keep pixel wear even. LG has it sorted better, but loses brightness over time, which can be counteracted by letting the backlight shine brighter, while QD OLED loses (color) uniformity over time, so its more noticeable, while being brighter to begin with (accelerating wear further).

And the pace isn't that high, all we get are innovations and firmware updates, but there aren't fundamental changes to the technologies. WOLED and QD OLED are still practically the same thing as they were, making a subpixel arrangement somewhat different or some pixel somewhat larger won't be changing the basic characteristics of the tech. In much the same way, VA still smears more than IPS, but recent VA's smear so little, you probably don't care. But you'll still see the difference if you know what you're looking for.

Getting dimmer is expected, there's no way around it, pixels are going to die out no matter what.

I know there were marked improvements between LG CX and LG C2, I'm not assuming anymore.
 
IF we could just get a decent mini-LED 32", 4k/240 monitor with 20,000+ local dimming zones I wouldn't have to deal with this OLED business, with it's limited brightness and burn-in issues. :(

You're missing out. Sure, LED is brighter, but OLED is still bright enough. Burn-in? Sure. But only if you crank up the brightness too high and leave it there.
I mean, if I needed a screen at the beach or in some other overly bright environment, I wouldn't pick OLED. For everything else, it looks just stunning. Remember the plasma days, where you could walk into a store and tell plasma apart from LCD from across the room? You can do that with OLED today.
