No, they still get burn in. They also aren’t very bright out of the box, and they get dimmer over time. They’re also more expensive than LCDs despite having a limited lifespan. I’ve never been a fan of OLEDs for these reasons and my theory is that manufacturers want to sell them because they have a limited life span so they can sell more.
MicroLED I’m super pumped for though. No clue when we can actually expect to buy them though.
Why do people think the brightness of OLED is a gotcha? As long as you aren’t letting the screen face an open window on a sunny day or pointing lights directly at it they are plenty bright. Also due to their contrast and true black levels they don’t have to get as bright as LCDs to look good.
Because it’s a real problem. I have a decently bright LCD TV, but i live in an apartment, and my living room has a lot of windows in it. I don’t think this is an unusual situation. If i had a basement with a theater room, then sure, brightness wouldn’t matter so much.
I just feel like a OLEDs are good at one thing - color reproduction. But they’re worse at literally everything else including cost.
Other than peak brightness, OLEDs are better at just about everything. Viewing angles, response times, contrast, color accuracy, you name it. Even in a sunny room I think you’d find they get plenty bright.
Do they still get burn in? that was my only problem with non-LCD TVs.
