SEOUL, May 13 (Korea Bizwire) — LG Display Co., a major display panel maker, said Thursday that it had released the results of a study reaffirming that OLED displays are the optimal choice for gaming during the Display Week 2022, organized by Society for Information Display (SID).
A research team from LG Display called on a handful of top-ranked online gamers to discover which display conditions provide the best gaming experiences.
The players tested games on a wide spectrum of displays, from OLED displays and LCDs to flat and curved form factors.
The study results showed that bendable OLED displays received the highest evaluation with regards to reaction time and eye health, and were chosen as the optimal displays for gaming.
The average reaction time using an OLED screen was 0.05 seconds faster than that of an LCD.
The research team said that considering that the speed advantage the gamer can get by using a special mouse is 0.01 to 0.02 seconds, an advantage of 0.05 seconds is critical in determining a game’s outcome.
In addition, OLED displays emit 60 percent less blue light than general LCDs, allowing players to enjoy longer gaming experiences without side effects such as eye fatigue or headaches.
