Hi, I was in the market for a new laptop and noticed that many vendors have jumped to OLED displays.

Reading up on OLED, I see a lot of information on how things have gotten a lot better in terms of burn-in, dead pixels, etc. on OLED TVs but given that computer screens typically show more static content, I was worried that I might run into issues in 2 - 3 years.

Has anyone actually used an OLED laptop for a few years? If so, did they run into issues? Thanks

    Most likely they will go into multiple years.

      Light years or LED years?

        Light years is a measure of distance.

    Think about your phone? most phones are OLED and last years without any issues

      The content on your phone is almost never static and they aren't on for 9 - 10 hours a day like your laptop would be

        Honestly my phone probably gets more screen time than my laptop - no issues

        Mine seems to be getting an orange and white bar burned in across the top after 3 years.

          Your laptop? What laptop do you have?

            @OI27: My mistake, it wasn't burnt in, just the same orange and white graphic hadn't moved for a long time!
