- jagger27 4y agoOh neat, I didn't realize that. I guess it didn't work out very well.
- AdamH12113 4y agoI have a plasma TV that I use for gaming (Panasonic Viera). It's a great display with none of the contrast or ghosting disadvantages of an LCD, but it's heavy, delicate, and most importantly, it puts out a ton of heat. A plasma TV is basically a grid of tiny neon lights. Like any active display (CRT, plasma, or OLED) it can suffer from burn-in, but I haven't found that to be a problem for my usage.
- mikestew 4y agoBetween a very old Panasonic Viera 42" upon which a buttload of Halo was played over many years, and the current Samsung Not-Smart Plasma which gets a bit less game play, I've yet to see the slightest hint of burn-in. I did get some ghosting on the Panny before I sold it, but I otherwise take plasma burn-in to be an artifact from TVs made twenty years ago.
- bzzzt 4y agoIt's a problem with every plasma TV ever made. I've got one of the last Panasonic Viera's which, after almost 10 years, has a slight dark patch around the place where subtitles tend to appear (I'm from the Netherlands where almost all non-dutch content is subtitled) It's only really noticeable when looking at a uniform gray screen which is not my content of choice, but it's there.

But they were killed by the low cost of LCDs: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Field-emission_display https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Field-emission_display https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface-conduction_electron-emitter_display https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface-conduction_electron-em...
