  • moonpie thanks.

    I already saw the 2021 qned90 is flicker free. But rtings didnt do the 2022 qned90… maybe there was a change.

    Plus also maybe the Australian QNED91 (equiv qned90) is different too.

    I think it will be flicker free, but 100% confirmation would be nice.

    So far Sony IPS is my top pick

  • I like this older model as its IPS and 120hz.

    Would be great if someone can confirm its flicker free.

    I know the QNED90 2021 (other regions) is flicker free (rtings) but cant confirm if this Australian 2022 model safe.

  • moonpie thank you really appreciate the advice.

    I never turned off VRR on the x85k, but i assumed VRR would have only been issue with gaming.

    I agree with IPS, the less contrast seems to make it easier on my eyes. Shame the image is more washed out, but i want comfort!

    moonpie thanks for the tip.

    I am a gamer so 120hz would be nice, hence i tried x85k. I didnt have any headaches just text was a bit annoying, prob because its BGR pixels. I should have kept it and no older refurbs left now 🙁

    I tried samsung S95D thinking my issues were clossy screens, and QD-OLED is horrible for my eyes. Worked this out from the 34" monitor (dell and samsung) aswell.

    I have never had issues with any IPS computer monitors and always preferred them over VAs… So x77l or Bravia 3 are worth a shot. But i am after 65" and you reckon the Bravia 3 is VA in the size. Damn cant win

    qwop hey! What did you end up with, any luck? I am still trying to find a newer TV that doesnt hurt my eyes.

  • MvDoorn did you ever try the Samsung S95D?

    I also have strain when looking at glossy TV screens when they are off, so I am keen to give this TV a go.

  • I started working from home full time and my Samsung G8 QD-OLED was causing instant eye strain that I had to sell it.

    Back to a 32" 1440p IPS now and zero issues.

    I have always found my eyes more sensitive than others, but I got other family members to try my monitor and all experienced the same instant eye strain.

    It now has me worried about my LG W-OLED TV. I dont use it as long or read text. But i did some testing and found reading bright white text on black background also slightly straining.

    I have always turned down brightness and contrast on LCDs i use. So i think for me it might be OLEDs contrast is just too good and bright for my eyes.

    On the QD-OLED monitor i found white text on black background was far worst. So i stopped using dark theme. But was still too painful to keep.
