LG wants to roast your retinas with its new 10,000-nit OLED panels for VR headsets

We've moaned on occasion about the underwhelming full-screen brightness of LG's first-gen OLED PC monitors. Well, it seems LG has taken it all personal, like. Because the company has just announced new OLEDoS panels with a peak brightness of 10,000 nits.

Yes, 10,000 nits. No, I haven't just fallen unconscious leaning on the '0' key. If that doesn't already seem utterly retina-roasting, get this. We're talking about tiny little OLED panels for VR headsets. So, that's 10,000 nits half an inch from your eyeball.
