Could always have a black background behind it. Get one of those super black paints and a board, go to town, and place tv in front of it.
wouldnt that be a regular LCD TV then?

I'd think it would be worse but (I'm assuming) the contrast would look really nice. I don't know maaan I'm too poor for OLED stuff.
We have the LG OLED and the blacks are AMAZING! Plasma TVs only ever had dark greys. Watching streamed 4K HDR Amazon Prime is like looking through a window. We also have a cheap TCL 2020 LCD TV and what it lacks in the black department it makes up with super bright whites and really accurate colours. I think LCD is catching up to OLED ... it will take a few years.

The more I think about this as a TV the weirder it gets. A night scene would have a transparent sky with stars speckled on it, so might look like bizarro-daytime. A skyline with black buildings would be floating windows. A black car would be close to clear, so there would be a translucent spot where it looks like someone erased a car.

Maybe a secondary layer of monochrome LCD will deliver blacks. I don't know what would qualify as transparent though in that case. In the render of the woman in the white dress they clearly show black separately from transparent.

Looking good, but why would I want to give up OLED's blacks in exchange for looking at the wall behind my TV?
I'm sure the market for advertisements and showcasing by manufacturers on CES and such things as well as putting them up in the lobby of banks and trillion dollar companies, and as suggested art galleries maybe, is enough reason to make them.
Oh and casinos? Just that Chinese place with all the casinos must be a sizable market to sell to.

Can't imagine it's for the home to watch netflix.
