Dell 4K UP3017Q OLED monitor went up on sale
So do you guys remember the OLED Dell UP3017Q Ultrasharp 30-inch that was announced and then got cancelled by Dell? Well guess what. Dell just released it, and it had a price reduction as well :)
In a bit of a surprize move the monitor is now available. Not just that it was announced at 5000 USD, yet can be purchased for 3499 USD. The UP3017Q is rated at 100 percent of the AdobeRGB color space and can reach 97.8 percent of the DCI-P3 color space. DCI-P3 is the color space used exclusively for cinema today. It is fitted with a USB Type-C connector that can provide roughly 100W of power, as well as high-speed data and video.
Dell - The Dell UltraSharp 30 OLED monitor is Dell’s first OLED monitor, bringing together the advantages of OLED display technology to PC professionals working in color-critical environments such as graphic arts and photography. The monitor delivers a cutting-edge typical contrast ratio of 100,000:1 that delivers “true black”, coverage of industry color spaces such as AdobeRGB and DCI-P3, brilliantly detailed Ultra HD 4K resolution and an ultra-fast response time of 0.1 ms. It also supports USB Type-C enabling single cable power, video and data connectivity with compatible systems.

The monitor has a 30-inch OLED screen. The huge advantage with OLED is that black really black as a dark colored pixel simply is turned off bringing Ultrasharp an astonihsing contrast with obviously stunning colors. The screen would have gotten a 400,000:1 contrast ratio and response time of 0.1ms with 100 percent of the AdobeRGB color space and can reach 97.8 percent of the DCI-P3 color space. DCI-P3 is the color space used exclusively for cinema today.

With more than 8 million of these brilliant pixels, you’ll see every detail in Ultra HD 4K resolution, including smooth and sharp moving images thanks to a quick response time of 0.1 milliseconds.
Expect next-generation connectivity, premium materials and adjustable features.

OLED is a nice technology but very expensive on normal screen, and with time goes with technical issue on large surface.
on TV set some company have already given up (also there is new pro. screen technology that have become less expensive)...
i don't worry about DELL they will release another monitor...

Most likely. Burn in is the #1 problem with OLED technology, especially for PC monitor where you'll get static images appearing for hours on end.

If I can remember correctly, it has to do with the lifetime of the Blue lights; they do not last as long as the Red and Green lights.

Oh, isn't it obvious?
An unresolvable "5000" issue.
