I've just bought LG CX and found the issue especially annoying during rotation in FPP games (deal breaker in dark horrors). I've implemented simple app to bring the problem out; could you please check if trailing arch is visible at some point of circural gradient? It would be very informative to test it on various OLED screens - I wonder if this defect is LG OLED or in general OLED specific.
 
It's a bit hard to capture a clear photo as we are talking about near-black gradient levels. I've managed to capture it by increasing exposure time in my phone camera, which results in unwanted motion blur, but luminance overshoot is clearly visible at top-right part of circular gradient:

It is very easy to see with the naked eye, just run my app, ideally in dark room. Default settings should be enough to nailed it, but you can tweak gradient range/movement speed (controls in readme.txt).

I also wonder why this is happening at specific point of gradient instead of first threshold between pitch black and level above. I suspect it may be the point when supporting white subpixel is turning on, but it is just guessing.
