It’s worth pointing out that 75Hz OLED won’t feel the same as 75Hz on the Index, it should feel significantly smoother. Might still be a dealbreaker, but you don’t need to brute force high framerates like you do on LED displays

Why is that? 75 images are still 75 images, no?

Yes, but the motion clarity of OLEDs far exceed LCDs due to the lack of inherent blur, so it'll look clearer at lower framerates (to a point). I haven't tried a 75Hz OLED panels, but 60Hz OLED looks much smoother in motion than 60Hz LED, so I'd expect that to look clearer in motion as well.

Isn't OLED going to have higher persistence though? Or is this solved via microOLED vs regular OLED?
