Comparing the subpixel arrays of the Dell OLED and the Alienware OLED, are they a bit different? The Dell got an anti reflective coating, is that the reason for the blue hue? Is it less sharp than its Alienware or Gigabyte counterpart?

Thx

So the OLED panel is essentially a low-persistence display ala CRT whereby the PWM flicker rate matches the refresh rate?

Well then, sounds like we need to bust out Custom Resolution Utility and see what that OLED panel can really do in terms of refresh rate!

Quite a thorough, thoughtful, and complete review.  Thanks for putting a tech purchase I don't need to make on my maybe list.  Looks quite good to me.

I traded off a 17r4 7850HK/GTX 1080 for a 13r3 770HQ/GTX 1060 6GB for the OLED display alone.

I have been gaming on a PG279Q @165hz for 3 years. When I switch to my iMac or my working monitor @60hz, I see no important differences while working... ( I also work and browse the web on the PG279Q)
Even the blurbuster text scrolling test shows no improvement for me between @60 and @120 on my PG279Q
The only moment when I really appreciate @165 is playing a competitive FPS.

So no, I don't think an OLED @60 is a deal breaker for every gamer.
PWM @60 is the deal breaker.

ashlol & Jb
guys, 60hz is a lowest frequency on the market.
this standard is old as hell
every person can see the difference between 60 and 120. and not in just gaming and with special measurement.
your eyes tells you how much better 120 is. after an hour of everyday use. even windows looks better, browsing is better.
its like ssd after hdd. you will never look back.
..
this laptop is as crappy as most of gaming laptops.
1. it look like s***. who am i, an 11yo? aliens my a**
2. always 50+db. where am i suppose to play on it? in the basement, alone?
3. screens are mostly flawed. pwm, low brightness, weak colors, 30yo 60hz standard.

To notebookcheck reviewers i really enjoy always reading your reviews but i think there is too much personal feelings in each reviews.

here we have a good example of the reviewer not apreciating the OLED display even with such advantages over IPS under false assumption that a 60Hz display is worst than 140Hz display for online games.
a 60Hz display will not get you being a bad player since there is ping in consideration. Good land internet connections have more than 10ms ping. I think only optical fiber connection can have less than that. So if you have lets say 10ms ping with the server from the time you see the picture and you react you already add 20ms to good player reaction time of 200ms and you can see very quickly the pointless discussion about 60Hz vs 140Hz since there is no way that you can send your command in the previous ip packet as the difference between 60Hz and 140Hz is 9.5ms. There is also no mention about input lag since panel input lag can varies from 5 to 30ms, so if the OLED screen has the same input lag as an IPS screen then there is no advantage to the IPS.

Sorry about the big text wall but for once i said i would make things right and hope that for once the reviewer will read my message.

Uh... not the holy grail of display tech? 

What is?  The 240hz ips panel?

Maybe in this laptop there are some issues but to state some generic statement like its not the holy grail based off of this display is dumb as hell.

The 4k ips version of this laptop or even razer is locked in at 60hz.  The display tech has nothing to do with the refresh rate.

Stick with shitty lcd screens i guess.  Everyone knows contrast ratio is the heaviest factor in pq.

OLED is amazing, but it's not the holy grail of display technologies. A few key disadvantages outside of the pricier MSRP mean there are still good reasons to choose IPS depending on your usage scenario.
