I HAVE BURN-IN 3 Years Later!

[@CoZChristopher]

3yrs and this is realistically what older OLED technology is capable of! I am excited to continue seeing the market move in the right direction!! If you enjoyed today's content, check out my channel for more: kzbin.info/door/BzyguAwoOkZvANpWaOa_vg

[@chanhien4000]

some redditors are really insufferable, when people post about how their monitor got burn in, you can be sure there will be a plethora of people just mindlessly comment "no burn in on mine". Then now it gets so bad that some of them already admitted productivity users should not get OLED. A person posted that he got his game minimap burned in, then people just bashed him for playing game, I really don't understand those people.

[@CoZChristopher]

Agreed! Mine lasted three years and when I purchased, I knew there was a high probability it would end this way at some point. But I looked at it as an investment and work tool knowing that someday I would start to get diminishing returns! But, I am happy that it lasted this long before I started having issues. It's still really useable and if I were to move this to another space where I don't sit directly in front, I wouldn't notice from distance at all 95% of the time, but it happened so I wanted to be honest and transparent about it! I will still get another OLED though hahaha, can not beat the experience!

[@chanhien4000]

@@CoZChristopher I get you, I got to try OLED monitors at a computer store. My usage has a lot of static icons so definitely will be a huge problem for me. I live in a country where dell does not cover burn in replacement, and I don't have the luxury to spend a thousand dollar to replace a monitor every other year (at least not yet).

[@CoZChristopher]

@@chanhien4000 ahhh yea! That was my worry at first having to change it out quickly! I use a lot of static images, documents, etc in my normal work and it was fine at first but then I got lazy lol after the first year and half went by with no issues, then it took about a year of carelessness for me to notice the first line lol

[@bp328i]

I was using a 48" LG C2 for about 6 months when I noticed burn in (completely my fault from the wallpaper) but LG replaced the panel under warranty. I have a cutout in my bedroom that is 6' wide by 30' deep so I bought a desktop that fits perfectly in it so my desk is only 30" deep. Being that close the 48" was just the slightest bit to large. I ended up buying the ASUS PG42QU and it's perfect for my desk. If I ever move my setup where I'm not in this cutout I'll definitely go back to a 48". Now I use wallpaper engine and any program I use is in window mode which I've gotten in the habit of moving a little every hour or so. Only thing I use full screen are games or TV/videos.

[@CoZChristopher]

That’s exactly what I did at first then did the reverse. I got over confident and started being lazy. I do and to try double stacked 42” or 32” OLED Monitors at some point or, now I’m thinking 55” lol

[@ameliabuns4058]

I love 42". it's the perfect size! honestly I could even go bigger purely for when I play controller based games or movies (as I sit back for those). my eyes like staring at far a lot more too, I almost wish I could fit a 55" on my desk but i'd have to sit further away and 4k is WAAAAY too low for 55". heck even 42" is near the limit of how big you can go with 4k for a monitor

[@lokidoki471]

i have a 1440p 240hz oled monitor, i found that leaving the background pitchblack, using autohide desktop icons after inactivity, theres a program you can get for it. also doing a pixel refresh every 8 hours or twice a day i found is the best to avoid burn in. luckily my monitor has an orbit function as well so the pixels will shift once a minute, never noticed it unless you're looking for it by watching the bezels.

[@CoZChristopher]

Yea!! Those newer monitors are really nice! This year I’m gonna decide if I’m updating to a new OLED monitor setup or a c3. But really I don’t have to change this one at all, I don’t always notice the burn in

No burn in but since I’m so far from a repair facility LG’s warranty wrote me a check for the amount of money that was spent on the TV. They no longer use the same insurance company so doubt they do that anymore.

[@datriaxsondor590]

In all fairness to you, bud, it wasn't your fault that it burned. You shouldn't have to coddle a TV like it's a newborn baby, so that it doesn't self-destruct. I get what you meant, but, for the prices they charge for these things, especially nearly 4 years ago? Nah, I put zero fault on the user, outside of abusing it.

[@Mujahed.]

You're completely right. I'm willing to settle for mini led TVs as they don't have burn ins. don't really care about any other downsides of mini led

[@klausklausi7484]

I have the same CX48 and I can see bit of burn in after about 3 years. I probably would not buy another one in the future. It’s great to use but if it show that signs of wear down that early, it’s not worth it.

[@CoZChristopher]

@@klausklausi7484 I believe the newer models are a lot better with retention as the technology is different now. And with mine catching the retention after abuse, I’m confident the newer ones, especially those with actually coolers designed to protect for pc use, it would do better.

[@anthrobug]

C1 48" since 2021, over 10,000 hours so far, and i'm just seeing very slight burn in but I'm running the cleaner tonight. I just looked after watching your video :/ I have the same experience with displays; it's even spoiling me on tablets, there's simply no other display technology right now, my other screen is IPS, and the bleed is too distracting. I figure after this LG OLED gives up the ghost, I'll just get another one, it's certainly proved it's worth. Or check out what Samsung's doing with the QD-OLED TVs. But I'll never get a 'monitor' again; I don't understand why anyone would want a smaller screen; Like you said, just get a big boy/girl's desk - Don't complain about a beautiful big screen because you're sitting behind some little ikea desk with a slide out keyboard. I never understood that little desk thing, ever. I used to use a table as my desk at work at one point. In university, I had a few tresses and a slab of wood. More room, more work, more money :)

[@layzie45]

I use a 24" depth desk and I have my monitor and I have my LG CX 48" on a simple tv stand three inches away from my desk. The setup works just fine. I like interchanging from 4K" to 3840x1620 Ultrawide. Also, a really good Burn in prevention is using the LGTV Companion App and setting it so that the TV goes black after a few minutes. The app tries to mimic the idle/standby feature of regular desktop monitors. It uses Wifi to connect to the TV.

[@iBarNyz_PR]

I bought my CX 48" in Dec 2020. I love it. Exactly when I had the TV for 3 years and used it for 12,000 hours the panel "Burn in". I play NBA 2K and started leaving the screen with the HDR on all the time and at the bottom now you can see the scoreboard burned into the screen. Fortunately I have a warranty at BestBuy and I can repair it but frankly it doesn't bother me yet. The truth is that I will never go back to having a small screen that is less than 48", it is simply great, you just have to have a large desk and calibrate the TV at a height on the wall that is on par with your vision. With the 3000 and 4000 generation of Nvidia you can customize the resolution on the PC to 3840x1600 (I have my resolution at 3840x1800 scaled to 150%) and since it is OLED, the edges stay nice and dark and it looks like an ultrawide monitor. I found this video looking for information because as of this date July 2024 LG still releases updates for this LG CX from more than 4 years ago.

[@majstorringo]

For normal use, different content, TV shows, sports, movies, gaming, there is no worry at all that it will burn in. The tests that were done by rtings, which led to the burn-in effect, were a static image for a very long time, the CNN logo for example.

[@Rooster1991]

[@DETERMINOLOGY]

Burn in is one of those things to where it could happen sooner then later or it may not but its a risk you take when buying a OLED. Dont leave static images on the screen for hours and hours at a time and your fine. Some people buy oleds and test burn them to see what happens. Those people then come back on here and say "i got burn in" making oled look bad when most likely they treated their oled badly.

[@CoZChristopher]

@@DETERMINOLOGY I agree! This was my 6th video using this since launch. I still use and will always have an OLED as my main monitor. My goal was only to continue to share my journey with my first and outdated version. The newer panels are much better and a completely different technology regarding the OLED! Even with the minimum retention this one has it’s still perfectly usable.

[@skyllaros8725]

Great review! I completely agree with you that its not too big. These things become dogma and everyone just parrots what they've heard everyone else saying. Over the holidays I got an LG C3 42", and I felt it was too small. Took it back to get the 48" and while I was there decided to go go big or go home and just go for the 55" instead. It works perfect as my monitor on a 36" desk. It's completely immersive while playing games and does not seem to big at all.

[@CoZChristopher]

That’s been a thought for me as well!!! The 55” is usually on sale more and easier to get than the 48” especially at places like Brandsmart! What do you think stacked 42” would look and feel like compared to the 55”? I think I have plenty of space for the 55” as well!

[@skyllaros8725]

This is the review i wanted to see. Someone whos almost abused their panel over a time span that really matters.

I game 6-12 hours a day and needed some peace of mind

That's awesome!! I'm glad this helps! I really have abused this monitor daily for a little over 3 years. It's crazy to think how much time I spend in this very chair I'm typing from now hahaha!! But, all in all, I believe I've gotten a good ROI on this! I would imagine that the non-hydrogen based OLED panels newer than this one would do a better job than this one did. Even so, looking back, I would make the same decision again. I was saying earlier, that I could potentially put this somewhere else in the house at a further distance and really not notice the top quadrant burn in at all about 95% of the time. But, I'm happy with how its faired!! Thanks for stopping by!!

But watching this because thinking about it.. also about the new ipad 16 with tandem oled.. because it seems to me as a double time likelihood to get burn ins or damage in one layer due to heat.

I’ve been debating on getting either the LG 42” or 48” C3. As I’ve been using a Samsung 43” ultrawide for the past 5 years & can’t imagine going any smaller. Your review definitely convinced me to get the 48” as I have a larger desk.

[@markmd9]

Definitely go for 48" bigger pixels have more resources and will last longer. Unless it has a bigger resolution so as a result they can be smaller.

[@L3X_T3CH]

Dude I completely agree with the size of the screen rather than 2/3 screens just looks cleaner and easier to manage just needs to be a 12hz panel for me but yes 42 or 48 would be for me also. The factbthats its a TV is a plus as there is so much you can do with it a you've explained. The desk size of 36 deep is also a must. I would want that sort of size. The burnin to be honest pal isn't that bad and for a 3 Yr old panel that you use alot is good pal maybe LG,Sony or Samsung can send you a new one to review/ replace lol great video pal as always. Stay CoZ pal

[@CoZChristopher]

I’m praying and hoping they will hahahaha!!! But seriously! Agreed! I’ve gotten my money out of it, this panel is literally on 12 hrs a day minimum!! As a work asset, I couldn’t have asked for a greater ROI!! It’s color accurate, 120hz, has every needed gaming feature and just flat out is the best experience you can ask for in every facet of using a display for work, play, and entertainment!

That’s a fair statement, but the desk statement was focused on the need for this product. Not the space allowed in one’s living space. I mean people wouldn’t buy a 75” TV and put in on a wall 5 feet from them to watch it, so why would they buy a 48” and put it 2ft from them to use as a monitor.

how can i getr those sick wallpapers

[@CoZChristopher]

Haha Ty! These are through Steam and “Wallpaper Engine.” Download Wallpaper Engine and then you can find all types of “live wallpapers” and you can make your own. Like I did for Judy from Cyberpunk 2077

What desk do oyu have?

[@CoZChristopher]

It’s a custom desk that I’ve had for years. I talk about it more in my 1 year review of this monitor/tv :) 1 Year Review | LG 48” OLED as a Monitor kzbin.info/www/bejne/eoLQfJyZpM-LaMU

[@Mariovic20]

It's probably from the magnet inside the speakers that you should not have to close to the screens.

[@Thmyris]

u have very good style

[@CoZChristopher]

Thank you!!!

[@Mister_Shane]

I wish people would stop using the term burn in for OLED as its misleading. Its not Plasma or CRT. Its Organic LED. So it should be called burn out.

[@CoZChristopher]

The technical term for this product would be “permanent image retention” that is caused by the uneven wearing of organic material within the panel. However, popular opinion refers to it as “burn-in” so as a reviewer you would use the term that people recognize. This term is also now institutionalized and used in legal documentation such as warranty coverages, etc. This is the same phenomena where popular opinion labels everything a “Kleenex” even though “Kleenex” is a brand! This is called neologism and is a common theme in linguistics. Other definitions would be a “coined” term.

Hey you stay CoZ as well and yes very much enjoy the vid

[@CoZChristopher]

Thank you!!!

[@Zam_man]

burn in is the fate of every oled monitor - it is a feature - it is the discrepancy of degradation between the oled pixels and no matter how much mitigation or screen refreshes you do oleds will get it

[@CoZChristopher]

I agree to an extent. Image Retention is a constant probability of the OLED technology. But, I dont think it's necessarily inevitable. I have several OLEDs here at home with no signs of Image Retention. My oldest one is a C8 I've owned since launch 2018 and it has no signs. But if abused, for sure, they'll definitely show signs of image retention much easier!

[@tek_soup]

Agreed, baby's first desk. 🤣🤣🤣🤣 man up men, get or make a real desk!

[@modaroho]

he likes that word. "narrative"

[@akaChriss4L]

Damn so you’ll get burn-in if you don’t baby your TV/monitor… shame.

[@CoZChristopher]

With the first generation you will using it as a monitor due to the old tech. But keep in mind my use case is not normal. This monitor gets about 72hrs of use a week east of very complex and static screens due to my professional work. I went in detail on my 1 year review a little more in that regard

[@akaChriss4L]

@@CoZChristopher well yes, the new LG OLED monitors, like the 27 inch screen, has an MLA panel and is actually made for PC monitor use.
