The other is 15.6-inch, 2.8K (2880 x 1620) OLED 16:9 aspect ratio, 0.2ms response time, 60Hz refresh rate, 600nits HDR peak brightness, DCI-P3: 100%, 1,000,000:1, VESA CERTIFIED Display HDR True Black 600, 1.07 billion colors, PANTONE Validated, Glossy display, 65% less harmful blue light, - (Screen-to-body ratio)86%

The 2nd one has the higher resolution.

15.6-inch, 2.8K (2880 x 1620)

Opinions are my own and not the views of my employer.

Yup, the first one is only 1080p ,

Described as FHD . i guess that means Full HD

The order there is reversed from the order in your original post.

In this case, it is the top D1505YA with the 2.8K (better) screen.

The lower M1503QA has the FHD (worse) screen.

I don't think the order makes a difference. After more digging i don't think the oled screen is a good idea. I liked the fact oleds are favourable for outdoor use.

Both are OLED. I was pointing out that the list positions had changed.

I agree; I'm increasingly coming to the same conclusion: if you're doing anything other than watching video, OLEDs are non-optimal in a bunch of ways.

What everyone here has said is corect.

Both screens are OLED.

The higher resolution one is 2.8K (2880 x 1620)OLED it is not a standard resolution but wikipedia has it listed as 3K
model D1505YA

The Lower resolution one is FHD (1920 x 1080) OLED often called 1080p or 2K
model M1503QA

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphics_display_resolution

If OLED is worth it, no clue.
