    I’ve steered away from OLED thus far due to concerns about burn-in. It just isn’t something I want to have to deal with.

    It’s bad enough that I need to worry about write cycles on SSDs, but the advantage over HDDs is so overwhelming that I deal with it.

    Longevity is a very important criteria for me, as I tend to upgrade infrequently and buy near top of the line for its time.

      I play Guild Wars 2, and I’m worried if I bought an OLED I would end up with the UI permanently burned in. The technology just doesn’t seem compatible with games that feature a persistent UI.

      My OLED is going on 8 years now and it has no signs of burn in. I don’t watch TV with permanent station logos though, if that is something that your OLED would have to withstand
