      I’m using the G8 OLED, best monitor I’ve ever used and I never experienced burn in or screen retention since launch. My 65 inch Sony A80j does get occasional screen retention but returns back to normal after changing the channel.

        My G8 suffered from burn in after 5 months. Best monitor ever indeed.

        Had to contact Samsung multiple times because they didn‘t believe it (even with high res pictures and videos as proof from multiple angles) and had to pay for shipping to their service center.

        At least it doesn‘t want to optimize my screen for 10 minutes right after tuning it on and instead runs its optimization stuff when I dont use it, right? Oh wait…

      If you even remotely take care of most OLEDs and turn them off when not in use it’s not likely to happen for an extremely long time. But then you have people who leave their PCs on 24 hours a day on the same screen and complain when they see it suddenly matters. You have to take care of it to an extent 🤷🏼‍♂️

      I prefer LG for this reason since they have the most advanced safeguards and maintenance cycles that the TV does automatically. Can’t vouch for any other brand personally.
