That's terrible, especially if blue luminance degrades faster than the others. Wouldn't surprise me if OLED never made it to computer displays market. Wonder how much better that new LG is in that regard...![[H]ard|Forum](/styles/hardforum/xenforo/logo_dark.png){kind=logo}

Actually that number was closer to 2,000 hours, but it was still quite unimpressive, yes. Modern AMOLED displays aren't nearly that bad, though
As it's 3 generations newer than the XEL-1's display, with all the new advances in sealing, organic luminescence and such incorporated I'd be sorely disappointed if it wasn't at least 30,000 hours, or about half that of an LCD backlight which few people ever see burn out I guess we'll find out soon enough.
30 000 hours would be a very impressive improvement indeed. Still, my Panasonic plasma is rated at 100 000 hours and yet after only 3 months I could see the effect of uneven wear of pixels. Only noticeable when I get close to the screen and on dark backgrounds but it's there and it's something you would easily notice on a computer monitor.Actually that number was closer to 2,000 hours, but it was still quite unimpressive, yes.

I guess it's different with LCDs because it's their backlight that degrades over time so the whole picture becomes dimmer instead of bright pixels wearing out faster.
