LG C3 VS SONY A80L
Pixels death is more concerning than burning.
Imagine 2 dead pixels somewhere close to center. For the warranty it won't be enough but it will annoy you so much.
Then leave windows desktop running 24/7 on highest brightness to make a burn in for warranty ^^
So, the manufacturer won't cover warranty, but reviewers out here saying you should not worry about burn in.🤔
petition for plasma revival plasmas dont burn in despite what ppl say
That’s awesome! I was thinking of moving on from LG because it felt a little too much of a data collection ecosystem, but I love OLED and burn in coverage is a tempting feature to stick around for. I’m interested to see more about these lg oled monitors, tv functions are just dead weight for me these days and I’m sure me and LG could enjoy forgoing those cost’s together. Ha ha
Can u do a tv technology roadmap again? Pholed, dual stack tandem, amqled, microled , nanoled, qned, elqd , red n green improvement, the nits increase expected , inkjet, 8k oled, maybe by 2030 glasses are the future? Idk lol soo much to talk about we need a timeline.
Btw 2024 we getting 4k 32 inch oled monitors but probably hdr 400 😮
I am also requesting this fomo
I see a loophole here. If you get burn in on the tv, just hook up your pc to it and let it run till at the home desktop screen with a changing background till the taskbar burns in, and wahla! Burn in on a pc for regular use
Hello Fomo! Do you think you could test the LG C3, Samsung S90C and Sony A80L like you did with the G3, S95C and A95K? I am curious to know about these three in more detail. Thank you if you can! Also, thank you if you cannot! Appreciate your time.
I purchased my CX & PS5 back in fall 2020 at beginning of pandemic an have not an issue… But for me getting it at Best Buy an total tech protection it was included there for the membership 2nd point is with Amex or citi-bank cards any electronic are auto covered so any issue you get a replacement same model or above an have a slightly charge for incidental charges
Wonders if the burn-in would be even less for TH-cam 4k Street walk videos. Most use a transparent logo but not all. I often let those play all day like a animated window to the world.
What about the CX. Does that get protection?
Good info, thanks and I totally agree your take on holistic burn-in warranty coverage, and LG would be smart to consider it given that BB is currently offering a 65" S94DB for $1600 w/ $300 gift card. Any idea on this model vs. S95B/C and LG C3? BB seems to be hush on many of its technical specifications?
It is literally just an S95B that was rebranded so Bestbuy didn’t have to offer price matching for the s95b.
All good points! Come on LG 👍
Excellent Topic brother!
Found dead pixels all around edge of my CX. I have a little over 8000 hrs on it.
I calibrated it and only watch sdr at 100 nits. I game in hdr that's also calibrated. TV has not been pushed in brightness at all.
I can't notice it unless I get within a foot of the screen though.
I have a few on the edge also, full brightness etc, not noticeable unless I’m pixel peeping
Different technology, but similar enough, burn in took out both of my plasma TVs. Our living room LG B7 OLED had burn in, so the panel was replaced, but has some image retention again only after 2 years. Until they warranty their TVs for burn in, I’m not paying the premium anymore for such fragile tech.
OLED tech will always have burn in ....it comes with the terroritory when you have static images on the screen a lot...like news banners, pc images, etc.
I’ve gamed on my LG oled’s since 2015 with the EF9500, I don’t understand what people are doing with them to get burn in.
My CX that I bought in April of 2021 started showing some burn in around the 2 year mark. It is hard to see, but I can see traces of the 3 life bars from Apex Legends in the bottom left corner. I bought the 5 year Best Buy warranty, but I am really not sure how that would work out for something like this.
did you end up using the warranty on this?
No. It is barely noticeable and I stopped playing that game (for other reasons). Honestly, even though I still have over 2 years left on my warranty, I assume that a corporation would have some way of weaseling out of replacing anything because of some random detail in the fine print.@@acousticECHO
Still no burn in on my c1 with 2.5 years on it. I turned off GSR and ABL and I game on it. If only it wasn't for the pink tint.😢
My A90J is covered until 2028 with Best Buy’s Geek Squad Warranty. Anyone here actually had service, got their OLED replaced or got an upgrade to the newer model? Just want to know for future reference on what to expect, if it ever happens.
Nope, you still have to return a broken TV and anything over 55 inches can be a real pain. Love the picture, hate it's one downfall.
I think it's helps a lot.
Ive had my C1 for just over two years and all i do is either watch TH-cam or play games with exception of the odd movie or TV show. I have not had any burn in whatsoever. I do however use the OLED care options for Move Screen always on, as well once or twice a month I use the pixel cleaning feature simply as a preventative measure.
Pixel cleaning excessively wears down the panel. You shouldn't run it, "just because". I mean do what you want, but it IS hard on the panel. It's meant to help it wear down evenly as well as preventing burn in.
@@paulcox2447 Yup. It's a good way to ruin a TV and need replacement much earlier lol. It should only be run 1 time per year, or every 6 - 8 months if you're being very hard on it (viewing content with static logos for long periods of time on a regular basis, especially at high brightness - HDR).
OLED Gaming Monitors are still fairly new, in general I'm skeptical to adapt the first gen of a new product line. This LG OLED burn-in warranty sure is a good thing, and it may be a sign that burn-in is not that big of a deal anymore (at least on LG WOLED panels for PC Monitors).
Still, as OLED Gaming Monitors are rolling out to consumers in larger quantities, we would over time get more and more actual data of how prone those monitors are to burn-in under various usage scenarios. Usually tech improves on later iterations, but OLED coming to PC Monitors at last must be an indicator that burn-in is not that big of a deal anymore.
Personally I don't think OLED Gaming Monitors would be a bad choice for the average gamers, who just play a few games like CS, WoW and such but are in general disinterested in more tech savvy things such as PC troubleshooting, programming, PC research, a need for constantly expanding their computer knowledge and so on. In other words less exposed to static images than the average "geek".
If OLED Monitors get recommended for office use later on, that would mean that burn-in really is a thing of the past. Being a geek myself, I'm casually optimistic, but I don't want to get burned.
I had a C7, it was a beautiful TV but in less than a year it was riddled with burn in even though I was neurotically obsessed with babying it to the point of not being able to enjoy my experience.
I suffered with it until I sold it off and picked up a QN90A which has been a pretty solid tv.
I would definitely consider picking up another OLED if they either figured out burn in or gave such a great warranty as that.
you should blame this youtube reviewers ho they don't press enough on burn-in chapter in their oled tv reviews. they obsessively focus just on picture quality and called a day.
@-darwin-2422 I think the entire industry downplays the issue. I'm not some anti-oled person, it works perfectly for like 90% of people. I am just too neurotic of a person, I spent more time figuring out ways to prevent burn in than I did enjoying the tv...and I still got burn in.
They have figured it out lol😂 The C7 is like 7 years old, the only ones to burn in still are the qd oleds because they're relatively new. Also it is important to keep in mind demographic as well. The type of people in the market for oled tvs are in the $1500+ tier, that kind of consumer A) doesn't mind paying a premium for the best and therefore B) very likely to upgrade/replace sooner than the typical person, further negating the worry for burn in.
@@hopoff9968 Nah. They haven't figured it out yet lol 😂 Even TVs like the C1 and C2 are showing signs of burn in (faint, but visible) after one and two years. Look up Rtings OLED burn in testing.
@hopoff9968 so you're telling me on a modern OLED I can play the same game with bright static UI for hours on end day after day with zero risk of burn in and if by some crazy chance I do get it they will replace with no questions asked? If that's not that case then to me, they haven't figured it out.
I made the mistake of buying a LG C1 because I was told Best Buy warranty cover burn in. However after experiencing over 12 hours of image retention, the stress of burn in isn't worth it.
Having a warranty that covers it does nothing to alleviate the stress.
What did you do/watch to get 12 hours of image retention?
@@paulcox2447 Watch anime. I mainly game on my TVs, but that day I was watching anime.
I though it was burn in at first and I was SO UPSET. Thankfully it went away after 12 hours.
Now I'm back on my old TCL 617. Sure the LG C1 looks for better, but I don't have to deal with the stress of my TV getting burn in.
15% of poll takers on reddit of over thousand users got burn in in less than 1yr for the Alienware awf and aw. But that monitor is a lot more prone to burn in than LG OLED displays, and maybe even the s95b. 2 years is a very short time but at least it prevents early death.
Exactly and those Alienware QDOLEDs have 3 year warranty. So LG with just 2 years is silly and just to look good without a risk to themselves.
WOLED has less burn in risk in the same early time frame. Especially now with their Deuterium panels. This warranty only has any real meaning if it's 4 year coverage.
I guess I better get the extended warranty for LG C3
Im not too worried with my LG 83" G2. Especially after Rtings testing. I play video games and watch streaming content. I dont watch news or sports but do play rpgs or games with HUD type displays. However, I also don't play it for 5+hrs every day. Maybe on a weekend but not the norm.
hello sir, i have a question: you wrote about "Especially after Rtings testing" can you explain a bit what exactly that test showed? thanks
@commendatore2516 that the G3 did not have any burn in during the accelerated torture test while samsung and Sony did.
@benlastname6667 Likely due to them being QD-OLEDs. I read they're more suseptible to burn in because they pump up the brightness like an LED does
Just a FYI you can hide any & all logos & everything & anything on Windows, & yes including the bar.
Good point!
Burn in should be covered everywhere no caveats. These TV's cost a fortune. LG's panels are great but good lord their software and support are nothing short of a pile of steaming dogshit.
Their software is good.
Software is way better then samsungs 😂
Pay the Sony tax
If you have a heat sink it's less risk
You will NEVER see this type of warranty coverage extended to TVs and here's why. People will know that all they have to do is wait until the very end of that warranty period and then just intentionally burn an image into their screen (by letting a static image sit on it 24x7 for 30 days) just before the warranty coverage expires and they can then get their old TV replaced with a new one for free. LG knows this and since they sell FAR more OLED TVs than they do OLED computer monitors, the financial risk they would be taking on by doing this would be much too great. Sadly, there are just far too many unscrupulous people out there that would just be looking to "game" the system if this type of coverage was offered.
lol...most people wont do that.
How much you got paid to say that a product costing $2000 or more should not last even 2 years and that's OK! Even if its covered for 2 years what about the hassle of replacement and the 100% fact that once warranty is over you are dead in water . Gamers dont game for couple hours a day , they will often times go over 5-6 hrs no way an oled is build for that kind of endurance . This is miss information you are spreading here.
Would this warranty convince you to buy an OLED TV for Gaming?
I think if all manfactures did this it would help a lot. I went mini led with my last purchase for this exact reason. I remember constantly dealing with image renention and burn in with plasma and its not worth the headache.
Absolutely -> For me the next television will come end of this year and I am thinking of getting a WOLED/QDOLED... I am still a little bit hesitant because of long gaming sessions especially after the release of a new game combined with vacations^^ This warranty would be a game changer (esoecially for the very expensive flagships...)
doesn't Best Buy cover lg burn in? with membership?
Yes, 100%. 👍📺🔥📃
@@MrStrictlyOLEDif you live bear microcenter they too cover burn in
Maaaaaaaaaaaannnnnn i hope this does happen. cause i just bought a new 65" C2
Awesome TV!
I play PS5 (fortnite) on my Sony A80J all the time. Not one bit of burn in. I run the burn in test about 1x per month. Not even a hint of burn in.
That's Sony for ya. I'll pay the "Sony tax" all day long!
Much love to you FOMO! Love you so very much
2 years of heavy gaming and News or NFL watching on my G1 and zero signs of burn in
I have a lg oled g2 tv that has a black vertical line that wouldn't go away. Only had the tv for 16 months so the one year manufacturer was expired but the g2 came with a 5 year panel warranty and LG would not replace it. So don't count on these fake warranties when it comes down to making a claim.
what inch size is your G2 and where do you live that LG doesnt cover your 5 year panel warranty?
News junkie here. Not unusual for me to have news on for 6 hours per day. Wouldn’t mind a screen saver …as long as sound continues…. In the meanwhile I won’t buy OLED without such a feature.
I have 2 Sonys (900f & 950h). They have a picture off feature that continues playing the audio. I love it & use it pretty often. Is this not an option with other brands nowadays? I also have an older Sharp & Samsung that don't have it. I thought it was just because of their age.
An OLED for the news is like trying to take a ferrari off-roading. Wrong tool for the job
The CX had a screen off feature that allows sound still, it's what I use anytime I listen to playlists. No point in keeping the screen on.
Why aren't you addressing the fact that a 2 year warranty is pointless when it comes to burn in on an LG OLED. 99% of all TVs/monitors would only have risk of burn in AFTER 2 years, leaving the warranty useless and as smokescreen to "look good", but be useless.
Who in their right mind buys an expensive OLED monitor or an OLED TV to only plan to keep it for 2 years. Because that is the only "safe" period with that warranty.
If it was minimum of 4-5 years then it would make sense. Then the value of having bought either would make more sense. It could be a warranty only covering the panel and not all the electronics.
So 1 year parts labour everything, 4-5 additional years for panel replacement due to potential burn in.
Alienware even has a 3 year specific burn in warranty on their QDOLED monitors. That at least start to enter into the timeframe when burn in does creep in depending on usage.
LG doesn't trust their own technology not to burn in over the years. Yet so many TH-camrs stand there and proclaim "don't worry about OLED burn in anymore". Then they replace their own OLED equipment every 2 years. Sigh!!!!!
This would be a good thing for OLED tvs if they decided to do burn in warranties.Hope LG will consider doing it. 😊
I just hope they find a way to completely eliminate the possibility of burn in occurring at all.
@@vgnvideogameninja2930 They never will. Before you argue "blah blah new tech", it's literally in the name. ORGANIC LED. Everything organic is going to wear down with use, there's no preventing that. Best they can do is implement methods to extend the lifespan, but every. single. OLED. will. eventually. burn. in.
I'm afraid mr fomo
After two years of PC gaming on my LG OLED55B9 TV, it has zero burn-in and looks as good as it did on day one.
Fomo, hows it going buddy! Great video. Burn in really should be covered for the first year for on premium tvs. The fact it isnt is a real statement in my view.
Fomo Im gonna stick to led you know why...im a worrier!!
I likebyour reviews... just a random comment here... I think that tv's nowadays lqgging is hilarious and a joke.. we pay thousands of dollars on a tv to have it lag and drop out of internet 🤷♂️🤦♂️ my Samsung q70c is piece of junk and it lags so badly and every morning lately I have to reconnect the net.. I thought technology was superior these days the way people go on about them.
Its a samsung.. what you expect🤦🏼😂
@@ClosestNearUtopia I hear ya 👍.. I suppose it's kind of like buying a kia, an overpriced car and average at best.
@@Ozjoker420. hmm mayb, the difference is, buying a KIA feels like an expensive gamble, while samsung, the oh so praised samsung, should not be a brand where you can expect crack quality, or it should not be praised like everyone does… i expect hella more of samsung products with the reputation they have, i already stopped buying them, total ripoffs.
More insulting than doing nothing at all. If there’s some new magical way to stop oled burn in it should be on every display, if they are just replacing panels they could have been doing that this whole time. I’d like to buy something better than s lcd tv but buying a tv with a known fundamental design flaw that renders it useless as soon as a week after purchase is just stupid
Best Buy 5 year warranty will take care of that. Burn in is getting better.
lol oled is dump food
The fact that we as consumers have to tell LG how to handle their policies in a sensible way is sadly a reflection of their status as a whole in the AV community, they've been losing touch for several years, its painful to watch because all of 6-8 years ago they were absolutely king, hell my personal favorite at one point, the top suggestion i had for any customer walking into Best Buy looking for quality at a decent price, Samsung wouldn't even cross my lips, till QD-OLED stepped up to bat and broke records with ease 🥹
