I have to admit that $350 is an appropriately (and compellingly) cheap OLED.  As someone who, between work and play, might have my monitor on for upwards of 16 hours some days I would still prefer a high quality Mini LED monitor where burn-in isn't an issue but it's a little easier to accept having to replace an OLED monitor every three years (which is usually when burn-in starts to become a problem) at that price.
