Burn-in is the one big worry with OLED monitors. But evidence that it shouldn’t be a dealer breaker for gamers is approaching critical mass thanks to another long-term assessment released today.
YouTube channel Optimum has been using a 32-inch 4K LG WOLED monitor for around 3,000 hours over two years and has found only minor burn-in. This is a particularly handy metric given that one of the best known existing trackers of OLED burn-in by Monitors Unboxed has been based on a monitor with a Samsung QD-OLED panel. Now we have something similar for LG WOLED.
I agree, my monitors have 10+ years and it’s now at a point to be a good value. 2 years is nothing.
Let’s be generous and say it actually takes 4-5 years for noticeable burn in
Maybe I’m looking at the wrong model but this appears to be a $1400 monitor lol
That’s an absolutely insane value degradation but I suppose the target market are simply rich people and legitimate screen addicts
My oldest monitor is only a little over 10 years old and I think of it new. And it was less than a third of the cost.
