![]() ![]() The truth - whether LG wants to admit it or not - is that all OLED TVs can suffer the same fate as the S95B and A95K if you push them long enough and hard enough. Note that the visible zebra pattern, known as moire, is caused by taking a photo of a TV screen and is not part of the burn-in. An example of screen burn-in on an OLED TV. Not to say that no one uses TVs this way (gyms, airports, and some bars are all places that might do just that) - but if that’s your intent, you should be staying away from any OLED TV - not just Samsung’s. Don’t leave the same image on an OLED TV for days at a time. In that way, they’re a little reminiscent of phone bend tests. Leaving the same news channel on an OLED TV for days at a time with its brightness maxed out feels like an edge case at best. ![]() The problem with image retention tests like the ones performed by is that they necessarily represent a worst-case scenario. Samsung has made LG’s white subpixel a prime target in its promotion of QD-OLED panels, claiming that the white subpixel reduces color accuracy by washing out the adjacent subpixels.įor its part, LG is now striking back by saying that without the brightness boost afforded by those white subpixels, Samsung is pushing its own OLED pixels too hard and that burn-in is the consequence of doing so. The deeper meaning of this explanation was lost on no one. LG Display explained that the reason its panels fared better is thanks to its use of white subpixels. LG Display was also quick to point out that LG’s 2022 G2 and C2 evo OLED models, which were also subjected to the same punishment, appeared to come away unscathed, or at least with no perceptible damage in the photos that were shown to attendees. The same test also apparently was performed on Sony’s 2022 A95K - the only other model that uses Samsung’s first-gen QD-OLED panel - with similar, yet slightly less-pronounced results. found that if left the same image displayed on the S95B for days at a time, with brightness set to maximum, permanent image retention occurred. The test in question was performed on Samsung’s first QD-OLED TV, the 65-inch 2022 S95B, a TV that uses quantum dots combined with blue OLED pixels to achieve its full-spectrum RGB color. ![]()
