Longevity Burn-In Investigative Paths After 3 Months: QD-OLED vs. WOLED, LG vs. Sony, And More

Our accelerated longevity test has been running for over three months, and we've already encountered some very interesting results. We've already had three partial TV failures and one complete failure, which wasn't expected this early in the test.

permanent image retention (burn-in).

Puts the cat amongst the pigeons.

Interesting that their S95B failed in what seems an identical way to mine after a few months.

Strokes new Samsung QN90B.



Never buying OLED until they can guarantee me burn-in is completely eradicated and they will back that up with a no-quibble refund. I'd rather just enjoy my fantastic new TV without every having to worry about my experience being ruined by IR and BI.

Strokes 3.5yr old LG C9 and laughs in the face of burn in.

Tick-tock...

Irs OK, you can avoid burn in by not turning the tv on .

Burn in any worse on these than on plasmas?

Have a 14 year old plasma here that’s been absolutely fine for ir and burn in.

Better than looking at greys instead of pure black day in, day out.

Tbf my brother managed to get burn in on a tn monitor which I think was quite an achievement.

I've got an ips tv with burn in

No burn in on my cx after a year. But then I don’t leave it on the same channel for 24 hours a day. Test is nonsense. I will continue to enjoy the rich blacks and great colours with my normal use mixed content.

Edit: checked the testing methology. Not a bad test. Although does not reflect my usage. And no issues with my tv.

No greys on my TV, great black levels and insane brightness, and great detail to boot. Best of both, and never getting any burn-in whatever I do with my TV. If it wasn't an issue then OLED TV's wouldn't need pixel cleansing etc...

 

[kona786]

No greys on my TV, great black levels....

What you call great.. I call grey.

 

[Darujhistan]

What you call great.. I call grey.

You want to get your eyes tested then, it must be all that squinting at the OLED trying to pick any detail out...

 

[danoliver1]

Once you go black you never go back.

 

[Grim5]

No more disabling abl

I get burn in like image retention on my Dell S2716DG TN on high contrast boundaries if I leave a web-page static for a few hours, etc. it goes away with a bit of non-static content but not good.

I've had a couple of displays which are notorious for burn in which have never exhibited it all though despite my usage often involving a lot of static content.

The WOLED is Wololing

Ok that's my joke for the week
