Are all TVs at risk from burn-in? Here's how to avoid the problem altogether

OLED TVs offer superior contrast, vivid colors, and deep blacks but are susceptible to permanent image retention because each pixel degrades independently, especially when static elements like logos or game HUDs remain on screen for long periods. Burn-in risk accelerates with high brightness, which stresses the organic diodes and generates heat; lowering brightness and turning off the display when not in use markedly extend panel lifespan.
