Taking breaks will actually help in letting the panel rest but I’m not referring to just breaks but also changes so the pixel does some other things as well (say different game or channel).vonblock wrote: ↑ There's zero proof that taking a break will prevent burn in.
There's also currently zero tool to reverse burn in once it's there.
Burn in on 2018 OLED got an extra protection feature with logo dimmer setting. It should be even harder to burn, especially on high setting.
Unless you're a CNN or MSNBC addict, the tv should not burn. Red and yellow static logo are the worst.
If you're planning on playing the same game for 1000+ hours and it has a lot of red and yellow static elements... You should thick twice.
There are tools that help lessen the effect once burnin is set. Doesn’t always work but based on avs forums and some reddit post, it does lessen the burnin effect to a point where it’s usable or less noticeable.
TV shows might or might not burn in. It’s not just cnn or news channel but a lot of channels now have watermarks (including Netflix). They generally aren’t bright so the risk of burnin isn’t high but it will be there.
Plus again I’m not saying every panel will burn in or it’s a fetal flaw for everyone. It is for me and the risk exist as documented by every professional review site. Some mark it down as an insanely low risk like vertical lines developing (which is a risk for basically every tv). For me, it’s a complete write off. There are many choices in tv and I prefer one without burnin risk over one with it regardless of how remote. If that means inferior picture quality then it means inferior picture quality. I bought 3 TVs (4 if you count the one for my dad) and not once consider oled but I’m happy with my purchase. 2 of them in OLED price range (except 75”) but again OLED was never even a finalist when I was making the choice (and I had the option to get a 65” oled for $300 more than 75mu8000 or $500 more 75x850e).
