After 3,000 hours and two years another OLED gaming monitor burn-in assessment finds only minor panel damage (www.pcgamer.com)

Burn-in is the one big worry with OLED monitors. But evidence that it shouldn't be a dealer breaker for gamers is approaching critical mass thanks to another long-term assessment released today.

YouTube channel Optimum has been using a 32-inch 4K LG WOLED monitor for around 3,000 hours over two years and has found only minor burn-in. This is a particularly handy metric given that one of the best known existing trackers of OLED burn-in by Monitors Unboxed has been based on a monitor with a Samsung QD-OLED panel. Now we have something similar for LG WOLED.

My OLED TV disagreed apparently. Put on a certain fireplace video one winter for a few hours per day for about a month. Burned the crap out of my reds. I'll never get an OLED again, but still use it because TVs are expensive and it still technically works.
