LG OLED B7

[MekaStrix]

Hi I bought an OLED B7 tv but have read all sorts about screen burn in and people saying don’t watch sports or any program with static images cause it will burn in. This has put me off keeping this tv I watch all sorts on tv from movies to sport and general programs is burn something that will happen or might happen? Has anyone owned an oled for a very long time with no issues?? Thanks

I have galaxy s8 and the screen burned in from watching yt... i think watching 2h football match a day or couple times a week is ok, but leaving it on for a whole day with score overlay could damage it

OLED screens have a higher chance of burn in, that is a fact.

I thought it was pretty much impossible to get burn on an LCD until I bought an LG G4 and got burn in but that's a phone so icons are always present at the top... My tv habits are 3 hours a day at the most and I don't watch everyday either. I don't watch the News I hear enough of that on the radio when driving, I watch a movie here and there which are usually between 1.5 to 3 hours thats the most viewing I do in one day. I only watch NHL and only follow one team anyway and I watch football (soccer) but only the team I support so not everyday. I would consider these healthy tv habits and would expect the tv to last a fair while before having issues.
