I’m gonna get downvoted to oblivion for this…
I just got my new OLED and weirdly enough, upon booting it I saw something that I didn’t even think of till now. With the new OLED, the sub-pixel arrangement is slightly different than the LCD, and it’s causing white edge (specially on text) to have this green/magenta fringing. It’s extremely faint, and it’s not particular to the Steam Deck since I know of other OLED panels that have the same fringing. However I have heard zero mention of this and I have to say that although this matters close to nothing while playing videogames, it’s something I do see with subtitles.
With this out of the way, the screen looks amazing and I’m more than ready to sell and replace my LCD deck now. I hope the technology gets there where this isn’t an issue anymore!
This sort of issue is why i sent an Alienware QD-OLED monitor back - it was terrible for productivity (think color fringing) for gaming i don’t tend care or notice.
This can be fixed at OS level, hopefully valve does that.
MS seem to be ignoring the issue on desktop monitors, despite several decades ago windows having settings for different sub pixel layouts
