Why OLED monitor burn-in isn’t a huge problem anymore (arstechnica.com)

On the upside, if you burn in an LG OLED in under two years, it’s covered under the two year warranty. (I didn’t check other manufacturers’ policies; some might do the same thing.)

I have a laptop with an OLED screen and I have that same thought every time I use it undocked. The screen’s very pretty, though.
