Well maybe also compare glass substrate thickness between that and a TV (prohibits thickness) and also wattage, also realize "wallplug efficiency" means most of that wattage is turned into certain byproduct.
For those with OLED screen, is burning still a issue? Do you exclusively game on it or also productivity?

Must be nice to be wealthy
That's some silly fear mongering going on in this thread.
No one spends all day worrying about their personal TVs
If the TV is LCD, then yes, you are right.
You're confusing reporting on real-world experience and concerns.
If you're not aware your product can develop notable defects, you're right - no-one worries about it. And this issue is not wildly publicised. However, if you are made aware from it happening to other people, including photographic evidence from multiple sources, you might, plus might 'worry' about future purchases, especially when there are other options to OLED. An informed choice is a good thing, no?No one spends all day worrying about their personal TVs

LG replaced it out of warranty; the panel that is which is basically everything that is not the “bump” on the back. I was not home as I would have recorded it but a single technician came in and did it. Now the image is perfect again. As long as they keep replacing it I have no issue with WOLED
what did you say to them?
I explained that I have “the thing” so they were asking if it would not turn on, which got me a little worried. But then I explained I had the dark/dead pixels forming in the corner so they had to check something and after that they said that it would be replaced as my model was “pretty recent”, I had to upload my proof of purchase which has it at 1.5 years old and they didn’t ask to upload any pictures. I assumed that the technician would check it but according to my wife he didn’t even turn on the screen and instead asked her to clear the table where he did the procedure. From ringing the door he was gone in 20 minutes. LG didnt want to answer whether it was common or that the replacement screen would fix it. I bluffed and said a friend had his replaced last year with the defect showing again and they simply responded with he should contact them. I asked what i could do to prevent it and they had no answer.
Anyway as long as they can replace it I am cool with it
In my region they are not covering my TV outside of warranty. I've asked them.
Bummer.
No frigging way I'm buying another LG OLED.
If I'm not busy, I would make yet another video showing all the bad things LG oled have that flying under the radar of media

Blur Busters (known for their UFO Test Refresh Rate utility) have created a new CRT filter meant for OLED screens that simulate CRT beams.

CRT simulator shader released for high-refresh OLED, LCD screens
The CRT simulator emulates the smoothness of CRT 60 Hz at much higher refresh rates on modern displays.

That’s sad to hear. However trust me, as bad as LG is, you don’t want to have to deal with Sony warranty.
Burn in is very much a thing which is why I buy the LG G series. They cover burn in for 5 years and for me, it’s the only Oled tv worth buying. QD Oled burns in very quickly. Rapidly actually that I’ve already had a qdoled monitor replaced by Dell in less than 2 years for burn in.
I think on pc, we need like 4000 zone plus mini led monitors and that would be perfect.

Keep pressing LG. Ive had them replace my 65 inch B7 twice even 4 years out of warranty. I assured them I would keep me home all LG, which I did to be fair. I have LG for my washer dryer and a 65 inch C1 and a 65 inch G4.
My Sony OLED broke, not from burn in but from a drop while moving. I asked if I could pay to have the panel swapped and they basically said 'call a repair shop'. I called the repair shop they referred me to and they said Sony is the only mfg that does not product replacement panels and you basically just have to buy a whole new TV.
Disappointing since I did really like that TV but I ended up replacing it with a miniLED for the living room (QM851G, solid very bright TV) but I think for my dark office/gaming room I'd eventually like another OLED.
Yea Sony and customer service.... Man I've had bad experiences. They make good products but it's like they look for any reason to wipe their hands of the situation when it comes to taking care of the customer.
Yeah I mean they make good TVs but imo they aren't worth the price premium (I got a deal on this particular TV), LG offers an overall superior product imo.
