If OLEDs are 'designed to fail' they've certainly gone about it in a very roundabout way - there would be much easier ways to do planned obsolescence if that was actually the goal of display manufacturers.

I have a LG wallpaper TV 65" from 2021. I see no burn-in whatsoever. Once in a while it says "we will do the pixel refresher thing when you turn off the TV".

I'm pretty sure there's something to it but I'm no expert. Five years later and my TV is just fine.

  • A TV displays constantly changing images.

    A monitor displays items that can stay fixed in place a long time, hours or even days.

    Not the same at all.
