Why the fuck are monitors so expensive?
My phone at 5.5" has 1920x1080 pixels. A 4k monitor of 22" has a lower ppi than that. How the fuck do they go for over 800$? And TVs are a different beast altogether.
What do you think would be the production cost of a OLED IPS 4K monitor? Around 30$?

New tech = more expensive
There you go.
>>54699608
Big thing is more expensive than small thing. What a surprise.
Larger panel = lower yield = higher price.
Simple.
>>54699688
Yes, goyim. Fall into my trap. Buy the memeK.
>>54699608
>OLED IPS
we have finally reached the point where people just think "IPS" is a word for "good".

>not using Yotsuba B
>not using PNG to make it transparent
Pleb.
All these oblivious goyims in this thread make me sad...
because people are willing to pay so much money
companies would be completely retarded to lower their prices when the panels will sel at this price anyway

>implying it's new
>>54699723
does it surprise you that someone as retarded as him would be such a fuckup?

Not really, 90% of /g/ are either college dropouts of kids that know fuckall.
10% are actualy worthwile discussing about tech.

Phone is 5-6 inches, monitor is 27
Phone uses a battery, monitor doesn't
1080p Phone is $500 unlocked, monitor 1080p ips is $300, monitor 4k ips is $600.
Are you stupid? Wait no, you are.

I'm on my phone and I'm not spending 30 minutes on a post, you autist. And I don't know, I find whining fuckheads like you that don't actually seem interested in the discussion a lot more annoying. If you want to be "le meta" and circlejerk here, >>>>>/reddit/

So a phone only consists of a battery and a screen. No PCB, processor, camera, etc.? And where did you pull those numbers out of? A 4K TV costs around $2000 and you're paying too much for a 1080p meme phone. Especially if it only has a screen and a battery.
>>54699608
>4k monitor at 22"
Good luck finding that.
22-24" should be 1440p tho.
>>54702976
I'm giving an example of a higher resolution and bigger screen having a lower PPI. I agree though, you can really see a difference below 32"
>why is my 5.5" smartphone less expensive than my 27" monitor
Gee, I fucking wonder OP

My LG 49UB8500 which is true 4k, 4096x2160 was $900 brand new

>>54699723

You really are clueless, aren't you?

Not him but, dark themes are fucking awesome on my OLED screen.

Enjoy your fucked eyes m8s, i bet you are sitting in a completely dark room too.

>4096x2160
>true 4k
kek, 4k has exactly 4x the pixels of 1920x1080.
1920x1080 = 2073000
2073000 x 4 = 8294400
3840x2160 = 8294400
4096x2160 = 8847360
>>54705776
>implying 4chan's dark theme is pure black on pure white
>>54705776
Why would a dark theme be bad for your eyes?
>>54705851
No, he's right. 4x1920x1080 is called UHD technically, not 4K.
>>54705776
>implying 4chan's Tomorrow theme is pure black on pure white
>>54705872
It should at least be called QHD, not UHD.
Fucking bullshit.
>>54705905
No, QHD is 2560x1440. HD is 1280x720, "quad HD" is 2560x1440. 1920x1080 is "Full HD" and 3840x2160 is "Ultra HD"
