Doesn't have HDMI 2.1 which reportedly solves a lot of the OLED issues. Wish it did have it though.

Btw HDMI 2.1 has a higher bandwidth than Displayport currently.

How does HDMI 2.1 fix OLED issues?

HDMI 2.1 is mainly for higher refresh rates at 4k.

HDMI 2.1 supposedly fixes/lessens vrr flicker. Turning off G sync/ Freesync also fixes this problem but I won't do that because I love the smoothness.
To those who can't tell the difference with Variable refresh rate on and off, VRR flicker is irrelevant to them.

Full Screen alt tab, you get a black screen for 5 seconds or more on DP.
HDMI 2.1 having a higher bandwidth makes the black screen last shorter. This isn't a issue for people who don't want to play games at full screen and can just use borderless or windowed.

I haven't been able to test HDMI 2.1 myself because my GPU is the RTX 2000 series which does not have HDMI 2.1 output.
