I wonder if it's actually due to the quantum dots, or if it's more broadly a thing for large OLED panels. I haven't spent any significant time using an OLED TV, and I think most of the OLED computer monitors I've seen in person were QD-OLED.

The story I'm aware of is that in the QD-OLED display stack it was not possible to put a polarizer layer in, which is what causes its telltale weakness in ambient light rejection.

So you'd also not see this on other types of displays with a quantum enhancement film (i.e. FALD MiniLED + quantum dots), it's specifically QD-OLED that has this weakness.

This is to the extent that if the self-emissive quantum dot demo from this year's CES was real, even that won't have this issue (although it will likely still do have the stupid triangular subpixel geometry like on QD-OLED, as the demo unit also had that).
