Not the most tech savvy person so please bear with me.

What exactly is it? What's the difference between it and something like FALD? Are they the same and it's just different marketing or are they actually different? How is there different versions of it like an IPS or a VA? How does that work? How does it compare to something like OLED or QLED?

No worries! It's still very much appreciated, thx for the in-depth explanation!

'Black magic optical fuckery' I like those funny words haha.

Though one thing that I still don't understand is why the Q stuff uses blue light over white light, I heard it's supposedly better for colours or something? How so? Isn't blue light in OLEDs especially the most likely to degrade first or something?

I also heard about different versions and tunings of the LCD panels that try to fix their inherent disadvantages, i.e. IPS black, Fast VA, etc. how are those made?
