Ron Amadeo, writing for Ars Technica a few days ago:
Two years later and things don’t seem to be any better. The OLED panel on my pre-production unit still has the same issues as the LG G Flex. In low brightness in a dark room, the screen is grainy and has “dirty” looking horizontal banding all over it. The light level is also woefully uneven, with hotspots blazing out of the left and right corners.
Above, I’ve pitted the LG V30 against the Galaxy S8 in an attempt to capture the issues on camera.
The difference isn’t subtle. It’s night and day. The Samsung display looks uniformly gray. The LG display looks like shit.
