Not a Samsung fan and will never own one of their appliance again, but just got the 27" G6 OLED monitor as a TV display and have to say it's pretty nice once calibrated. Minimalist design, bright, and no color shift when moving off angle. Just in the nick of time, will be 40% more expensive very shortly I guess.
 
what I really want doesn't seem to exist

32" 5k oled

4k is certainly good enough, but 5k would be nice

Presumably iPhone pricing won’t be affected in the UK or EU if they don’t pass through the US and are made in China?
 
My guess is the human visual system cannot tell the difference between 4K and 5K...
Any objective basis for this "guess"? I have a 27" NEC 4K sitting next to a 27" 5K, and the difference is very obvious to me.
 
I have a Samsung Frame TV in the kitchen and an LG OLED in my family room. Much prefer the OS of LG over Samsung. LG works more like a traditional TV. You know, hit the power button and it turns on to the last channel/input you were on and fast. Samsung takes time, it takes you where Samsung wants you to go...to their home screen, and it is slow. Imaging if your toaster needed to be turned on, then boot up, and only after 15 seconds you could push a button to start toasting bread. That is kind of what a Samsung Frame is like. Great concept. Crap OS.

I've got a recent Samsung (s90 77in). It's pretty snappy but I live in the Apple TV sort of mode. When it starts it briefly shows the Samsung OS but immediately jumps to ATV since that was last thing used. No complaints.

One of my friends has a recent LG. That also looks good. I'd heard the Frame sets are a bit underpowered.

In any case, I think all these recent sets are really impressive. I have a 12 year old Samsung right below my current set (for NFL days), and I'm blown away by the modern sets.

There are limits to the spatial resolution of the visual system - I don't have time to do the trigonometry to see what the angular differences is between adjacent pixels in 4K and 5K at a normal viewing distance. However, I can note that sitting two monitors side be side doesn't quite prove your point if you have not controlled for brightness, contrast, refresh rate, colour saturation, viewing distance, etc. And of course you have not done the test blind as to which monitor is 5K versus 4K - there might be bias.

The same kind of issue applies to audiophile equipment for which people pay big money to reproduce high-frequency sounds they literally cannot hear because of their age. Some of the massively oversampled digital formats for music are just plain silly in this regard.
