Fortunately in case of Steam Deck it's possible to replace screen in case this become a problem in a couple of years and new parts wont cost like a new device.

I hope replacement is easier than with the OG Steam Deck because to replace the screen you have to completely disassemble the device, heat to unglue the screen... https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Steam+Deck+Screen+Replacement/1...

They have made a number of changes to makebit easier to fix, not sure about the screen though.

This is awesome. Video production just takes so many hours for each second and I don't think people know how much work it takes until you help out on a shoot.

I do a lot of YouTubing and the consensus is that every minute of video takes at least 1 hour of work - and this is just amateurs messing around.

Last I heard, it's the same supplier as the Switch OLED; that's why it uses MIPI over eDP. Samsung is the manufacturer I think

That's what I've heard too. And yeah, Samsung makes the Switch's panel according to iFixit's teardown. https://www.ifixit.com/News/53272/nintendo-switch-oled-teard...

(GP)> "same supplier as the Switch OLED"

> That's what I've heard too

Is any of this confirmed or just rumor from the LTT video?

I am continuously amazed at how awesome valve is and what awesome products it makes. Also steam supporting linux single handedly advanced adoption of that os. Apparently the best types of companies are those founded by deeply technical people, still owned and run by them, no venture capital. In an ideal world we would favour such companies over toxic ones.

Ultra-bright means higher burn-in risk, or am I wrong on this one? Edit: thanks for clarifying

Burn-in on OLEDs is really just uneven wear. I don’t think it really matters how bright they get for that, unless panel heat is an issue at higher brightnesses.

Higher brightness leads to faster wear. If the wear is uneven, this leads to faster burn at higher brightness.
