Have been using the gigabyte aero OLED for more than 2 years now.
Colors look really good and so does the viewing angle making images look real.
Black levels are amazing and if you max the brightness, even SDR content might look like HDR. But I usually use it at 60-70% brightness.
I have yet to see any burn in yet not even my taskbar or window start icon. *Touch wood*

The bad:
Color uniformity aren't good. If you display a static color and you might notice noise or dirty screen effect. It is especially apparent with anime/cartoon style content. Imagine compressed jpg images.
If you keep your distance away from the display, then it is not so noticeable.
Also when displaying white or light color scene there is also this slight color shift from left to right.
But I did got this >2 years ago, so hopefully the newer panel are better now?

Recently bought a 55C1 OLED for use with a gaming PC and consoles and notice the same issue, seem like OLED display development larger than a smartphone is still way behind.

Currently own a Lenovo Yoga 7 Pro with OLED display. Can already find minor burn in on my laptop for those static elements.

you can hide the taskbar & remove all shortcuts on Desktop for now.
hopefully their incoming Yoga Slim 7 Carbon 14 will come with Samsung new OLED panel...
