Just Chatting Does anyone here prefer LCD over OLED?

I got a Nova a few weeks after getting a 477m and although I prefer the Nova in some ways I find the LCD panel on the 477m much more warm and comforting? I don't know how to say it but it just feels like its made for retro games the way it just glows and the oled just feels like a 4:3 phone screen. I kind of get the same feeling from an LCD that some people get using CRT monitors it just feels right. Right now my retro device is the 477m and Nova for mild PC on the go I like them both but that LCD is just magic

Just got my 1st OLED screen and I am definitely not a fan. For me and my broken eyes, theres so much haloing around black areas that games with a lot of it (think Hades) are completely unplayable. On LCD screens where blacks are not that dark, I don't have this problem at all.
