OLED is amazing but it's grossly overpriced to be practical for most large format displays. Mini LED is a highly economical improvement over traditional LED panels that has closed the gap a lot and brought some interesting advantages particularly in bright scenes where OLED suffers massively in comparison.
If I had a limitless budget and the ability to dedicate a space with full control over ambient lighting conditions I think OLED would be an amazing solution. Most people are not buying for that scenario, they are looking at mixed use rooms/daytime viewing and realistic budget constraints for which MiniLED is a vastly better option that reduces the gap on black levels/low brightness content but absolutely nukes OLED displays on value per inch, peak brightness/HDR and long term concerns in gaming setups with burn-in.
I'm gonna want it at 2600 or some sort of significant cash back or something. I just feel like $3k is retail and the stores are trying to pass this off as a sale. Yes, they typically charge even more for it but this and the U8 100, but they have both been on sale for $3k or less a bunch of times in the last 2 years, it just doesn't really feel like it's as low as they can go. Especially once next gen starts rolling out.

I'm only seeing 11% for Best Buy online but not sure if I'm looking in the right place.
