While we have DeckHD launching their higher-resolution Steam Deck screen replacement, we also now have JSAUX who have launched their own Steam Deck Anti-Glare screen replacement.
My understanding is OLED aftermarket screens aren’t really possible, the cost of OLED screens is too high unless you’re producing an insane amount of them. The market for handheld PCs isn’t big enough for any company to place a large enough OLED order.
Only ways we’ll get OLED screens on any handheld PCs is if they forecasted sales are extremely high (don’t know the exact numbers, but probably 10+ million minimum expected sales), if they can be designed to use an OLED screen designed for a different device (similar to how the deck screen was originally a tablet screen), or if there’s a significant change in the pricing of OLED screens. 3rd party non-OEM screens will probably never be OLED, at least for the foreseeable future.
Having just done a shell swap with the current shell layout there doesn’t seem to be a lot of room to reduce the bezzle size without some serious Dremel work. Maybe you could get them down to switch OLED size but they don’t bother me and probably helped keep the cost down.
If you want to sell a screen replacement, make it OLED and get rid of the enormous bezel. If you can’t do that, don’t bother. It ain’t worth it.

My Aya Neo Air has an OLED
That’s a 5.5" screen, I’m guessing it was a high production phone screen that had stock already available.
Unfortunately the 7-8" screen market seems to have very few OLED options.
I mean Valve could do it? Or you could use any of the 389473902 different OLED tablet screens already available.
Valve can’t afford to do it unless the market grows and the steam deck 2 is projected to sell way more copies.
There also.arent that many tablets with OLED screens, and all of them are basically 12" screens. 8" tablets aren’t popular enough for OLED screens.
Several million is not enough?
At a significant markup over the current price, that’s not easy to guarantee
