Just wait for that $699 deal for OLED. Or more commonly seen as $776 with extra monitor on EPP or $850 with extra monitor on EDU or $799 with extra $75 BB gift card. Tons of deal for this monitor.
I also got the Costco deal and I figured with 90 day returns, if a significantly better deal pops up elsewhere I'll just return the Costco one and rebuy.
Yes. OLED is always better.

If you're only gaming/media heavy with this monitor then OLED is better. If you're using it for productivity tasks then you're probably going to find the text clarity iffy and may be running a burn-in gamble.
The really new, super modern OLEDs seem to have so much built in burn-in mitigation in order to help the average "I'll just use it like a monitor" user...but again that's really only for the absolute latest OLED panels. For most of the panels people seem to aim for about 3ish years before having to replace.

Our community has rated this post as helpful. If you agree, why not thank DylanD2492
Is it OLED ?
Edit: you thumb downing cowards. Hatred of the truth. Weak.
I use it for gaming, watching movies and just everyday use. As you said, it is a use scenario.
Friend has one as well - got a better deal and got it for $600. His is still going strong as well.

I agree with almost everything here (text clarity is certainly an issue) except this OLED burn thing seems to be super overblown.
I have been using LG OLEDs pretty much since its inception when I made the jump from plasma while skipping every other tech in-between. Currently running 3 OLED TVs with the oldest is about 10 years old and 2 OLED monitors. The oldest TV has a red vertical line that comes and goes, but no burn in yet. I don't think my use case is anything special either.
