I'd rather have the OLED Screen.

I'd rather have a screen that is perhaps loses to the OLED in (most?) some cases, but wins and holds in others... while having all the other advantages.


LCDs don't really win at anything other than being cheaper. They have some more "natural colors", which usually look washed out because always-on backlight means less contrast. What they might have a "win" is over power consumption, but that's a mixed bag, since OLEDs consume much less power when displaying darker pictures, but also consume much more when displaying white pictures.

Sony's claims for their portable hardware have so far been inline with reality - and they said up to an hour more with that LCD. Not much, but...

There is probably gonna be some wash, but I doubt it's gonna be too bad. Hell, I'd almost give 50:50 on that video comparison I found and posted. OLED wins out, but not by much, for me.


I'd say that's probably because of new manufacturing processes for those PS Vita components and/or a better battery, not because of the LCD itself. Main problem I have with those screens is how black isn't black, seriously, I have a 2 year old OLED smartphone and I personally didn't upgraded it yet because of how great the screen looks. By buying another mid range phone today, like I did when I bought mine before, I would have to get one with an LCD screen since OLED screens now are only present on certain high end devices, and black level and contrast on those panels look awful for me, I personally can't stand LCDs on portable devices after seeing how much better OLEDs are when talking about IQ.

Honestly, I get by well with my PSP 3000 screen (and you know how some people hated that) and my ASUS VE248 for a PC monitor/PS3 screen, maybe we just have different levels of "screen appreciation".

The neverblack black is something I got used to...

I guess that would be the right answer. I played a lot on those CRT screens before moving to LCDs, so I guess that explains why I greatly prefer OLEDs, personally I have never adapted to LCD's "grey" blacks, since the CRTs I used had great black levels like those current OLEDs. LCDs are much, much cheaper to make though, and I believe that's their real advantage when talking about screen technologies.

I was still playing on them until 2011, I know what you mean.
