OLED displays users, how is the burn-in?

[ChickenTacos]

What's up!

For those of you using OLED (organic light-emitting diode) displays, how bad is the burn-in/image retentiion? Looking at possibly getting into the OLED diplay game in the next year or so (2025-2026), and the problems with burn-in are the main detractor for me. Also, I read that text clarity can be an issue.

Comment?

Burn-in is becomming more or a non-issue.

Burn-in only tends to happen over fairly long periods of time under the worst possible conditions with the latest generation of panels.

Text clarity is fine.

Greetings!

And your current OLED display?

MSI MEG 342C

I have also had the Philips 34M2C8600, it is terrible, avoid it.

Burn-In is still a huge issue. You cant use taskbar, icons or anything else on desktop.
Wait until youve used it a year or two. it will looks like ♥♥♥♥.

Omega is talking about "the worst possible conditions"
I call BS^10.

Even the best of all possible conditions wont grant you no burn-in.
It's not wort hit. Just ask anyone on a legit hardware board.

Like I said, the latest generation of panels, not the 2-4 year old stuff.

Find an oled monitor that has a warranty against burn-ins. What ppl here say abt oled is pointless

Burn-in happens over time. Who's to say that 2-4 years from now, the same won't happen to this current generation of OLED displays?

BTW, I'm talking about computer monitors, not phones or watches.

It still happens, just much less. These screens will continue to look fine after years of usage. TVs and monitors are less affected than the phone stuff for they can perform screen refreshes to keep the panel look nice and uniform.

I have owned a qdoled for over a year now, and there is no sign of any issues yet. The thing has a 3 year burn-in warranty too, and I am pretty sure that by the time I get to four years I won't care because I will be looking for another monitor anyway.

if you dont mind replacing it every few years go ahead and get an oled display

if you want something to last 10+ years, get an led backlit lcd panel, ips/va

Been doing the research and it looks like a good ole TN panel has less issues than IPS and VA panels.

For example:
IPS: The vaunted IPS Glow.
VA: Dark smearing.

For example:
IPS: The vaunted IPS Glow.
VA: Dark smearing.

TN: Crappy viewing angles, poor color accuracy.

Each panel type has some pros and cons.

The viewing angle ain't a problem when you're sitting right in front of it, center-on, friend. A null point, really.

Poor color accuracy? Looks mighty fine to me! Calibration is a thing.

ah yes, if it's not a problem for you then it's not a problem.

I stopped using TN panels because of crappy viewing angles and crappy color accuracy. Your ability to tolerate those deficiencies doesn't negate them for others. After all, I didn't roll in saying "I've never seen IPS glow and I've run a dozen IPS screens over the years when I ditched TN so it's not a problem." Because while I haven't had IPS glow problems, doesn't mean my experiences are the only ones that counts, friend

Also for the record calibration can't increase the maximum color space the screen is capable of displaying.

Have you used IPS panels? Any issues to report?
