Do you need displays in your life? If so, how do you feel about the prospect of not being able to purchase them in case of prolonged conflict over IC factories in Taiwan?

I thought only Samsung and LG are producing OLED panels right now? Prices are getting affordable, so IPS/VA is going to be more of a obsolete tech in a few years.

LCDs (IPS and VA) still represent over 70% of the global display market. Cars, refrigerators, toys, etc all still use LCD displays.
OLED is still overwhelmingly Samsung and LG, but OLED demand only represents around 5-7% of total display demand.

OLEDs have many drawbacks that make them a no-go. They're dim, have bad text rendering, use a lot of power, and get permanent burn in on static UIs.
In return you get "deep blacks". But photographers have been raising black levels since forever because it turns out it makes pictures more pleasant. So, uh.
Can someone share what's the potential ramification of this?
