The last time I read about Micro LED TV, it was at a conference and they had a Micro LED wall. The article I read noted that the energy requirements were huge and they needed dedicated air conditioners to keep the wall from overheating. I wonder if they have solved the heat and efficiency issues - anyone know?
Man, I'm tempted to move to an UST projector. I have a 65" aging plasma and will need a new TV in probably the next year, and these new gen UST projectors are _almost_ perfect if I can control the light a bit better in my living room. If they release a model with good response time for gaming, proper 24F handling and real 4K resolution I think I will jump. Hard to settle for 75" or 85" when for about the same price I can get a 110" UST and just set it on my entertainment center in front of my wall.
If OLED suffers from burn-in then it'll be because it uses the same phosphor trick as all prior emissive display technologies preceding it.
MicroLED will be doing the same.
Low power LEDs come in various natural colours, but high intensity LEDs are all a natural blue. So, to produce a colour spectrum, or even a plain white, they require the same phosphors as every other display lighting method, including LCD. The only reason a back-lit LCD doesn't appear to suffer is because the burn effect is evenly spread
MicroLED means the subpixels are LEDs. They can adjust color and brightness completely at a subpixel basis. Same as OLED, but without the drawbacks of burn in and wear.
MiniLED means It's still an LCD panel, but the backlight is more granular so that it can offer a different base level of brightness in a smaller area. Basically the backlight has a 'resolution' of something like 72x40 so they can pick backlight level for each region of about 108x108 pixels for an 8k display, or 54x54 pxels in a 4k display.

If they haven't solved the heat problem, at least it's going to make visually appealing space heaters.
