    1 example is apparently ‘proving’ now. Amazing the garbage that gets through the mods these days.

    People forget to mention the part where they were displaying CNN 24/7. It’s a torture test.

    I have a Sony XBR-55A8H. Not gonna lie for the price I was worried about burn-in. Especially since I was going to heavy game on it.

    Well its been a few years now and about 2k+ hours later on it strictly from gaming. Probably another 400 hours in streaming content.

    It looks as good as I bought it.

      Isn’t Rtings test basically “worst case scenario”? Is their 700 hours continuous?

    So I bought my Alienware aw3423dw at release and have been using it as my work and gaming monitor since than. I use dark mode and don’t watch CNN on my monitor, but it has over 6000 hours of use so far and no burn in…

    Is there any technological advancement that would make OLED as reliable as LCD/IPS displays today? It seems like it’s a part of the technology itself

      That’s the “organic” part of OLED. You’re basically asking for immortality at this point. I think microLED would be the purported successor but they’re still developing that tech.

    I’d still take one every time as a TV - they just look so much better.

    (Speaking as someone who bought an A95k a bit over a year ago and has had an LG WOLED for several years before that)

    It is a torture test after all, I have a A95K 65" that runs for 50 to 70 hours a week, mostly gaming/browsing.

    I think I’ve had it for a year and 3 months, and no burn in yet.

    Do y’all even watch the entire video? That’s 700 hours of continuous 16:9 use with 33% of the display not being illuminated due to its 21:9 aspect ratio. The upcoming QD-OLED AW3225QF and AW2725DF won’t have this problem.
