OLED Burn in? Let's find out!

[@marvinabugov4579]

My 2020 LG CX is nearing 7000 hours. No issues . . . yet. So far so good. It does its refresh every 2000 hrs. and on it goes . . .

[@djozlaone]

Love my CX

[@marvinabugov4579]

@@djozlaone I think we are just “lucky”. To my mind, we just happened to find a sweet spot in LG’s project development cycle. The CX was at the end of a 10 year cycle. The following C1 demarked the beginning of a new development cycle and since then there have been issues with some of LG’s newer technologies although they don’t seem to be yet in the C series rather its the G series? Meanwhile, the competition is fierce and fast moving year to year and its like playing roulette as to know how to get the best picture, performance and in particular - longevity - for your hard earned money. Makes my head spin as I watch reviews and follow technology trends. Unless you have purchased extended warranties it isn’t easy to swap tv’s out without having to spend - even more money. Quite frustrating / annoying / aggravating spending more - good money after bad! Often I think manufacturers could care less?!

An OLED doesn't look nearly as good as it did new after that many hours, you just can't tell or don't have a side by side comparison which is fine. My c1 after 4,000 hours looks dimmer and more washed out than it did new and I baby the panel

[@marvinabugov4579]

@@proggz39 Lg seems to go through teething issues as they progress up the development line from one generation to the next. A whole variety of problems plagued the previous series until they got to the 2020 - CX. Mine is going on 4 years old now and I am not seeing what you describe - yet. Did you purchase an extended warranty? I do routinely as I don’t trust what I might get in the “panel lottery”. So far, I consider myself - LUCKY! However, I know that could change at any moment. My thought is that LG might finally get all the issues worked in this current generation by the time they get to the next C-10 again?

As soon as I saw where the tv in this video is mounted. I was like "huh, no wonder it's having issues". I absolutely loath tv mounted over a fireplace, whether gas or wood burning! Lmfao....

[@loki76]

It's definitely a form of burn in. It's not a static logo or anything, but it's the "uneven wear" of the pixels. It's in the middle because that is where most of the focus/action takes place in any movies and shows. It's one of the colors that has aged and hence the tint towards green instead. It's probably the blue OLED sub layer that has aged and it cannot produce the same light. AKA the uneven aging of the pixels. Burn in is actually a misnomer and just used colloquially for uneven aging of pixels.

[@pioneer2321]

Loss of colour volume.

[@markorkarenhanes1354]

I'm surprised a simple color uniformity test wasn't run. Like the ones available on KZbin, that transition from color to color. If you got burn in, or some kind of color uniformity issue, that test will definitely bring it out.

After spending $8,000 on 2 LG OLED TV’s, that were advertised to last over 60,000 -100,000 hours, there offer was not where fair. I most likely will not buy LG again.

Incredibly timely video! I'll add to the chorus that I have the exact same issue. My E6 starting showing this a few months ago. First noticed it when watching The Simpsons: their yellow skin color made it jump out. I changed my PC's background to that color (Hex #f8db27, RGB (248,219,39)) and it revealed that not only was there "The Splotch" in the center of the screen, but some burn in where red was previously prominent. The MOST prominent was where the read KZbin logo sits on ther google tv interface. I hate to give up this TV (it was the last, best TV for 3D), but I can't unsee it, so it's gotta go. Waiting for you all to review the Samsung S95C 77" to determine if that's the route I want to go (also considering Hisense U8 or UX). Oh, and yes, this type of video is great! More please.

[@lukastemberger]

@@erinjonathan4273 The main reason for burn in is heat. And the heat accumulates in the center of the TV, that's why these blobs are around the center. It's where the panel electronics are behind it and the heat gets trapped. People who leave their TV on all day should go with an LED TV. Especially if you just leave slideshows on like the guy in the video. OLED has an advantage of giving you the best critical picture quality in movies and shows and LED has the advantage of being a good picture slideshow frame :)

I've gone through so many emotions... $2700 CAN is a lot of money and with my health conditions, that was REALLY hard earned money. I didn't buy the $378 extended warranty cause that's a) a lot of extra money, considering Costco offers an extra 2 or 3 for $100 CAN and b) I figured with Sony's reputation of making good TV's, I felt confident that if anything happens, it'll happen within a year... and it basically did but Sony said, "Sorry, not sorry."

[@rootbeer8994]

Have you tried the "Panel Refresh" option? It says you shouldn't do more than one per year. To find it go to: 1) Settings 2) Display & Sound 3) Expert Panel Settings 4) Panel Refresh I doubt this will fix your problem as it sounds more like a panel issue, but, at this point, you don't have much to lose. Hope all works out for you and whatever health issue you have can improve. Take care!

[@Slider617]

@Root Beer I did, and I sent it out to a local tv repair company who told me after the inspection that the panel is totally pooched and can't be repaired. I submitted an insurance claim through my visa and am hoping they can reimburse me. Sony told me they won't... so fuck Sony at this point and don't buy an OLED for gaming.

It’s not from static images but it is because the tv is on all day because my music comes from this source and we have several different screen savers. I’ll be reaching back out to lg this week. It’s a definite default and lg knows about it.

This is one of the reasons I don't go with OLED. Sure with a burn in warranty you can have it replaced. But why pay extra and why bother. New MiniLEDs are far brighter and do not have these issues. Nor any stupid ASBL that constantly dims. In a lit living room I can almost guarantee you cannot tell the difference in black level to an OLED, but it's brighter, also no haloing.

[@kor7852]

Videos like this make me not want an OLED. It is sad to see a TV that goes bad less than 5 years regardless of warranty.

Ur Quiz does not look like the A80K as recommended for me when I already bought the A80K, what was recommended was the Sony X95k 75". I bought it on Dec 27th, 2022 along with the HT-A5000 sound bar and rear speakers I am having issues with the sound off and on. Best Buy installed and Set it up, and with the extra headset, I got they plugged it into the center speaker plugs in the back of the TV where the plug is designed for the center speaker for the HT-5000. Well, each time when I switch to the center speaker to use my headset it has issues when I go back to the Audio system setting. the first time it did not stick to the audio system. 2nd time I used it now it seems to split up where my TV remote cannot turn the volume up or turn the TV off. Same thing with my Comcast TV remote. Always have to use the Sony remote to turn off the Soundbar and the TV remote to turn off the TV. Do you have any suggestions on what to do? I tried everything I could think of. Do you know of any others sharing sound issues?

Those speakers are crazy, but can’t imagine your getting any decent dynamics, esp. in the lower range, but those bad boys sure look cool.

[@loki76]

That's why you add a SUB.

[@jordi4384]

Are the audio equipment near or behind the panel? That greenish color is evident when certain audio equipment are installed to the rear or sides of the panel is the audio equipment are non shielded. Tv's have shielded speakers which is why it does not affect the tv itself.

I don't keep a TV more than 3-4 years, but I also don't use it that much, I hope that will last me about 5 years (LG OLED A1 65")

[@BTheInstaller]

Easily. I've had my A90J for 2 and use it daily and it's perfectly fine.

[@chrish7540]

I upgraded from the C7 this year to the a95k. I had this exact same issue with the yellows looking green. I interpreted this as uneven pixel wear and a form of burn in. It got unbearable. You guys raise an interesting point about a recall but no way LG would do that if they could get away without doing so and so far they have. I was disappointed in it only making it 4 years before I this issue cropped up. I was so glad to get the Sony. Hoping qdoled sidesteps these kinds of issues but I was surprised then they said the 2023 formulation was TWICE as durable as the first generation 2022 qdoleds. Anyway I really enjoyed the content. Good luck with the C10 and enjoy the superbowl fellas.

[@brandonjvl1987]

The tech giant has a video called "best things about the lg c2" and was looking through the comments. Someone commented that they have a 2016 lg c6 that had the exact same problem. Interesting to say the least. Just got into oled with a C2 and hope I'm lucky and never have this issue or any burn in.

[@Saturntime33]

It might be a better panel it should last longer but you will eventually have oled burn in wear. It may take 5-10 years

[@Gmen4life]

I'm saving now for a OLED or QLED Sam's Club has great deal yes balling on budget small studio apartment

[@toploader180]

I have the same problem with an LG oled 3d curved TV before the 4k tvs arrived. I was getting the green tint on people's faces but not all the time, I thought it mite of been the lighting used in the broadcasting not sure but it's strange.

[@gpfistner]

got lg oled 3D curved tv got screen burn too not happy not sure want kind of tv to but next

[@toploader180]

@Glenn Pfistner yes mine has screen burn too. I think the newer versions are a lot better now with screen shift & pixel refreshing but you still should be aware of screen burn as long you don't watch the same things with banners & logos like news channels for long periods of time, other than that you should be fine

[@FenwayJoe7129]

Fascinating video. I like to learn about all this stuff. I am content with my 48 inch Sony A90K.

[@nooddles12]

if u were in houston, i would hire u immediately. u do great work

[@polishdude001]

Buddies making some solid points… this is why I switched from Samsung to Sony..2 years in on my Sony oled and it’s running mint.

[@dhcivic27]

I tested this green hue on a yellow picture on both my 65 E7 and 77 C2, the C2 is less than 30 hours, and they both show this green hue on yellow. And no, I don't see significant burn in on the E7. I watch in Dolby vision dark or dark mode so it doesn't push too much brightness to the pixels, oled lighting is 50 or lower.

[@Abhitips224]

C7 with a bunch of dead pixels on one edge after 6 years. Doesn’t affect the viewing but what the hell. My Sony crt still works fine and it’s 20 years old.

[@hightone6095]

He has a speaker right where it's blooming it's probably the magnet from the speaker

[@richardwalkey6358]

I. Found that out on an old tube tv I had. And had a speaker near it. And it totally drew the color like crazy. 😅.

[@frommatorav1]

Center speakers are shielded and very unlikely to cause a problem. They're literally meant to go right below or above the TV.

[@HeavyC78]

Dope video. Love the house calls!

[@EM-ke8is]

Have a CX in the Livingroom replaced my C7 which has been in the master bedroom and knock on wood no issues both TV's working beautiful. CX HDMI came loose so I replaced the board but solder in HDMI in old board and working flawless . Replace your friends C7 with a board from EBAY for $100 and like brand new good to go .

B loved the video entertaining!!!! Your friend has a great set up!

[@NBKOUTO]

I have a samsung 40" that I bought in 2009 that gets burn in when I leave it on a screen for to long but it does clear up overtime. It still gives a beautiful picture and I have a 50" Magnavox that I bought in 2016, gives a beautiful picture, both of these TVs are 1080p and I am going to keep them until they stop working! I hope I did not jinx myself with this post!!!

[@charlesthornberg4087]

I have a 55 C9 with more than 12,000 hours on it. I bought it at Costco with seven years of warranty coverage three different warranties. Hopefully I’ll never use them but I put a lot of hours on the TV. I don’t think it’ll make it seven years but we’ll see.

[@ricarmig]

I have an old 720p lcd samsung, 32" and after 16 years more or less still impecable; had a Samsung lcd 3d 46" 1080p and after 7 years ... as new. Sold. My patentes bought a 32" 1080p lcd Samsung and the SECOND screen is already burned after 5 years (the first was bad after 2 years). Now I have the S95B, let's see how long it lasts. I hope it is not my first and last oled...

[@saulalvarez7449]

I had my LG do the samething in the same spot.. It was driving me crazy.. Only had the LG for 4 years..(B-Series)

[@DeepDishPizza]

My C7 that I bought in 2017 just now got burn in. I turned ESPN and has it there for only 5 minutes and bam burn in. No more OLEDs for me.

[@fushmontor2208]

Bros helping bros that's what this world need

[@chavawinnie1]

My LGC1 is amazing for my gaming needs, but I’m always worried about burn in issues. I try to use it just for gaming, and I use my monitor for other content.

[@dckillarobo]

Be careful with gaming too. If you play the same games for an extended period of time, the UI will eventually burn into the screen. I've had it happen to me which is why I'm skipping OLED next time I buy a TV.

[@chavawinnie1]

@@dckillarobo Yes, I switch screens size, hud and some settings to avoid something being on the same part of the screen for too long.

[@trumpameri1638]

Modern tech that used to be made no longer exists .... today device are made that works as only as the warranty period last ....

[@barrettadams5451]

Always buy the extended warranty from best buy...saved my azz numerous times! NOTHING is made as well as it used to be! Newer technologies especially. Appliances last 5 yrs tops. Televisions usually at the end of thier tech lifespan have been perfected. Then they get phased out. Still haven't seen any t.v. that tops a Panasonic plasma before they were no longer sold in the u.s.
