Legit WulfsDen had to put a switch oled at max brightness, worst case scenario scene on 24/7 for 2 whole years in order to get burn in.
The burn in rates of modern oleds is significantly lower than how they were at launch
Youd legitamately have to find the user who uses handheld mode desktop at max brightness 24/7 with only white elements only for it to be a serious problem, and thats such a ridiculously niche usecase.
I've heard the, but I think these tests don't take into account things like UV exposure. All the OLED devices I own (phone, TV) have burn in, and I think it's due to our large windows in our apartment.
UV is destructive to any kind of surface regardless of whether its oled or not. LCDs suffer major discoloration then exposes to long periods of sunlight.
