Indeed. Hoping for the best on this one as it ages...
I bought mine when the display came out and it's still working perfectly, no dead pixels or any other issues. I think I have over 8K hours on it as well.Sounds about right. Most of the complaints I've seen online regarding the CX and dead pixels are people who bought 2020 models while those who waited for sales and bought it in 2021 don't seem to have this issue. Guess that's what we get for being the early adopters
Yeah I honestly thought the display was just dirty until I got closer. I hope it doesn't become significantly worse from here.
Yeah, I figure so. Totally worth it for this as yet unmatched combination of 4K + rolling scan though.
In the photo this burn-in looks absolutely awful. Panel looks ruined
He used HDR cranked to the max on a game with static content. That's just neglectful usage.
You are missing out man. The motion clarity at 120fps mixed with a dark game on OLED will blow you away. I had 2 55in OLED one was a old c6 used for years as tv/PC before upgrading to a 120hz 55 that I've been using for 4-5 years for 100%pc gaming. Never seen anything on a grey screen that I could identify as burn in. Also have a 77 in my living room for 3 years that pulls tv+console gaming and looks good as new.
Interesting. I checked it and: no sheet!
My opinion is that if it interacts directly with the sense/body it should have higher priority than anything else.
I think you misunderstand me. I absolutely agree with you. I haven't gone to OLED because I'm concerned about burn in. I use my computer far more than a person should and static images are on display all the time. If it isn't the start menu its going to be some HUD elements of one of thre few games I put a crap ton of hours into.
You're fine as long as you're not using it as your main monitor. If you're just running a very long HDMI cable to a TV and playing that way it's okay. People using TVs as monitors, or even using OLED monitors as productivity monitors are going to have a bad time.
I'd be using it as my main monitor if I went that route. I'm not interested in switching between completely different displays just to play a game.
Because saying something like man it just happened is easier then saying I accidentally forgot to turn it off overnight or something.
Better off sticking to IPS or VA with miniled if you want longevity IMO. I fished an HDMI cable through the wall along with a usb cord for a hub so I can lay on my couch. I still don't think the Neo G7 is a bad monitor if you don't mind the curve. Brightness levels in 10-30 percent windows beats any OLED on the market, it just struggles a bit with full screen and sub 2 percent it has to dim a lot to not show haloing. It's still brighter in most scenarios than any OLED, certainly brighter than my S90C in most scenarios. The graph is the brightness levels of the monitor, just with different local dimming settings (low is useless, you can just leave the monitor on auto for the most part.) I play on both, just depends on my mood. I don't think one is preferable to the other but I don't pixel peep and blooming on occasion doesn't bother me.

I remember a thread where it happened from MTG card game played constantly. Very static board/table elements. I think alot of people leave the screen on when they aren't looking at it though too, some crank the brightness more than necessary, and if they disable asbl they also removed a layer of default protection.
I'd ask if he left the screen paused/static when afk, and if he disabled asbl. I always use the "turn off the screen" function when I'm not looking at the screen for awhile or when I go afk . That turns off the emitters only, kind of like minimizing the screen until you go back to focusing on it.
I always thought it would be a cool feature if they added masking overlays to gaming OLEDs, like dragging a selection box over a ui as a rectangle or an oval, then setting the opacity/transparency, darkening it. If they had a handful of selection sets you could store like that it would be pretty neat. Would also be useful for streams and news broadcasts where the is a bright static light source in the frame for no reason, or junk banners and adverts, etc.
Other than that, maybe on a good enough stand, you could rotate the screen upside down and flip the output in windows every so many days if you are a mmo lifer (no judgement), so your HUD would hit a different spot.
Thanks for the heads up! RTX HDR + OLED not without risks per your above. (In my usage, I'm hoping rolling scan + low peak brightness set will mitigate, but that maxed out OLED light in the display's settings during HDR still makes me a bit nervous.)
