- zitterbewegung 5y agoWho says it isn't? A big part would be that the screens are smaller but eventually you will get burn in. Being an early adopter has its price. [1] [1] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hWrFEU_605g https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hWrFEU_605g
- SketchySeaBeast 5y agoNo reason to assume it isn't. I think the hope is that you'll replace this before it becomes apparent.
- wvenable 5y agoI have an Asus OLED laptop and burn in is an issue for these as well. You can enable anti-burn in features (like pixel shift) just like an OLED TV.
- formerly_proven 5y agoAlso flickering. Yes, it's a problem for OLED displays. One might assume (like I did) that if you don't have a backlight, you couldn't have that problem in an active-matrix display, but because OLEDs tend to have quite wild shifts in color over their full dynamic range OLEDs are usually driven with some sort of dual-sweep scanout which turns the pixels off completely between frames for dim outputs. As I understand it, the drive regime for these is somewhere between a DMD (clever PWM for brightness control, purely digital) and a normal TFT (purely analog control).
