I been using oled for years on phones/laptops… never noticed any burn in. The issue seems like a chronically online nitpicking more than anything that a real user will encounter.
You don’t use your phone with static elements for as long as you use your monitor.
What are you talking about? My phone has an average screen on time of 7 hours a day and the status bar is literally a permanently static element. So are the three software buttons for home back and app switch. But they still don’t burn in
What do you do in your life that your phone screen is for 7 hours straight? I guess you’re just imagining things.
Also, while I don’t know which phone you have, stock Android changes the status bar constantly. For example, you scroll your Insta feed and it’s light grey with dark grey icons. You tap on a video and now it’s black with light grey icons. Then you switch to Maps and now it’s semi-transparent and each pixel changes every time you move the map around.
Button bar on the bottom also changes non stop together with app theme. And button icons change all the time. Android doesn’t have a single static element on the screen. And you NEVER keep screen on for 7 hours straight. It is completely different to office or industrial work. Heck, even my IPS gets a temporary burn-in (ghosting) all the bloody time!
You can check LTT video about LG TV Linus was using for work. He was so happy about it at first. One year later - it’s a total burnt garbage.
I was under the impression that this was only really an issue when they first introduced OLED. And doesn’t really affect the current gen
it can affect current Gen, it’s just way harder to the point it doesn’t really matter.
OLED tech gets better every year
Built in pixel shifts and better hardware is making burn-in on OLEDs a lot more comparable to the normal amount of burn-in LCDs and plasmas experience
If you can afford it, OLED everytime for everything imo
