Would've been helpful to post the native resolution of the monitor in the title of the OP or item description so people don't have to go searching for it themselves even though it appears in one of the images.

Everyone just pushing OLED $50 more...but its a bad comparision. You are comparing budget OLEDs with this which is for the price a top of the line MiniLED monitor with a over 1100 dimming zones and 1400 max nits brightness.

OLEDS great. But I just bought this monitor because I wanted a work/gaming hybrid and the extra brightness + not having to baby a monitor thats sitting on static stuff all day is just not worth it.

the pixel clear is only mandatory once every 16 hours, you can disable the 4 hour suggestion pop-up, and it does it automatically when you turn the monitor off at night so it should never be intrusive.

And regardless of price point OLED I believe has less crisp text if that is what you care about.

I tried hva mini LED and there were two dealbreakers for me, that I don't see mentioned often or at all.

First is that scrolling text in dark mode doesn't scroll smoothly, I found it very irritating to the point I wouldn't use one just for that. Similarly, if you play ARPGs like Path of Exile or Diablo you'll see the same effect on item labels while moving around. Setting overdrive to highest helped in-game but causes other issues.

Second was the local dimming leaves UI elements often looking dimmer than they should to avoid blooming. It irritated me too much that UI text that was white on my other monitor was more gray on mini LED.

Personally, I also found HDR just completely not worth it. No game I tried had good HDR just by turning it on, either wasn't very noticeable or looked bad by default. If you don't like tweaking settings I wouldn't recommend chasing HDR.

I also tried a 360hz QD OLED and text motion was fantastic, I didn't have any issue with how text looked, but in the end I couldn't justify paying $500 for marginal improvement over my several years old, but good quality IPS, and the maintenance and burn in risk were enough to tip the scales toward me returning it. It's not life changing like so many people say, IMO. You can see more details, for sure, but after an hour I felt like I adapted and nothing really stood out anymore.

Everything is personal preference but I think both these newer panels have things that I just don't have time or energy to deal with at this point. YMMV.

I wouldn't risk getting a refurbished OLED, these screens are sensitive, it's better to just get a new one.
