Do these things still have burn in problems in 2026?
>>109402923If you're retarded, yes, if you're not retarded, no.
>>109402923Yes, if they didn't they wouldn't aggressively try and stop you from having a stationary image on them for too long, it's perfectly fine if you don't mind buying monitors every 3-4 years, awful for anyone else
>>109402923Yes, their screens melt and turn into goop instantly when you turn them on
>>109402944LCDs degrade too.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wiO4b37RsIk
I was never a serious problem, just a meme for unserious people
i worry about this too, these things seem kinda dumb for anyone that just does work and doesn't game much and when he does it's on only one monitor and the other two just display the same applications as before
>>109402923Yup
Friend of mine has his monitors complain that they need to get a time-out every ~6 hours where they just display some bullshit to reverse any uneven wear. Takes multiple minutes
>>109402993those are TVs not monitors
>>109403109xhe thinks modern monitors are betterPaying for an LCD is like paying to be cucked
Just switched from an IPS to an OLED. Am I retard?
>>109402934/thread
>>109403310if you live in a dark cave, no.if not, yes.
>>109403294having a huge ass surface that is edge lit of course puts a certain strain on the light source especially if you run it at max brightness but monitors aren't that big
Been using mine for 2 months no problems so far
>>109402923getting green lines are far more of a problem than burn-in
Is burn in actually a real problem with these monitors even in 2026? You’re saying, after all these years, Oled screens are still shit and will burn in after a few years? Who the fuck replaces a monitor every few years
>>109403310It depends what you're using it for. For games and videos, no. Otherwise yes.
>>109402993Every piece of tech degrades. Not all tech is designed to fail in some specific time frame though - TVs are designed to fail, so it's not worth discussing them in relation to the panel tech reliability. OLED and LCD TVs both brick in a few years because the manufacturers need you to buy a new one.
>>109405130Yes, it's an inherent flaw and can not be fixed. They've added a whole lot of mitigations to prolong the lifespan, but OLEDs will always burn in.
>>109405130>>109405854not a problem, and even if it happens for negligence, it's impossible to see it in normal usehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=15aIdl-HKWc
>>109402923Yes. OLED panels are still scams to this day
>>109402923Yes, they will all have burn in eventually in 3 to 5 years. Tick tock baby.
Give it 3 maybe 4 years through normal usage.I think of it like this: I want to enjoy something good, not something durable. I'm sure my IPS monitor next to my OLED monitor is going to last longer, but I don't give a shit. I want what OLED offers. I don't want 20 years of mediocrity.
Would installing a fan behind the monitor solve this issue?
>>109408068>I don't want 20 years of mediocrityRetards like you are why every appliance is cheap shit now. A $300 IPS monitor I can run at 100% brightness for 10 years and never think about at all is better than an inherently flawed technology I have to baby and replace every 3 years. OLEDs were only pushed on phones because they are disposable and get replaced every 2 years. Think about that.
>>109406723>Line down the middle of the screen that can be seen during daily use>not a problem
>>109408093>100% brightnessWhen you're legally blind, you can be fine with fucking anything at that point, I guess.
>>109402923yes, even if you hide your taskbar and shit.All OLEDs degrade no matter how careful you are
>>109404469Did you buy an OLED expecting it to have burn-in in less than 2 months??? why are you acting like thats an accomplishment
>>109402923Yes.
>>109402923Yes. https://youtu.be/wp87F6gczGw?si=7U3pPzwfQH-CWEzM
guys I got the AW3926QW delivered yesterday and it's very good, being able to use rgb subpixel font rendering in KDE with it makes text very clear and it's very BLACK. I use it to play phantasy star online
>>109408093My OLED is 6 years old and I don't have any burn in at all. It's turned on for 12h a day. You are either exaggerating or it only happens with cheap OLEDs.
>>109408231Everything degrades you dummy even CRTs of old.
>>109408657Do you use all of those care features and hide your icons and shit?
>>109402934>If you're retarded, yes, if you're not retarded, no.I thought they are retard proof by now... So I can't play 8hrs FC26? And I have to set my taskbar to auto hide? And run some stupid clean up programs? I think I'll go for 4k IPS then. I don't want to replace my monitor every 2 years.
>>109402923if you intend to use it like a PC monitor it will burn in
>>109409800So stupid.. And 65" Oled TVs for console Gaming? movies
>>109409746No, I treat my OLED like any other monitor. When I turn it off, I keep it connected to power tho. Apparently some OLEDs run care features in the background then.
It sucks that nobody is recommending IPS anymore since OLEDs aren't much pricier and sometimes even cheaper.
>>109403294The IPS I bought for $200 10 years ago still worksRecalibrated recently, still 100% sRGB with <1dE, uniformity also cleanI don't consume (((HDR))) content
>>109409798It’s fucking retarded that replacing a 1000$ monitor every 3 years is considered normal
>>109409798what kind of animal isn't setting their taskbar to authohide regardless
>>109409876All the low hanging fruit for IPS panels have been picked years ago, like this guy >>109409895 is saying.If you already own a decent IPS monitor, you just have to calibrate it regularly (if you care about color accuracy), and set up bias lights behind it.https://www.biaslighting.com/products/lx1-bias-lighting-cri-95-6500k-simulated-d65-white-bias-lights?variant=43529467920622
