The screen still looks as good as the day I bought it. permalink fedilink source parent [–] FrozenHandle@lemmy.frozeninferno.xyz 5 points 2 years ago (1 child) I am worried about burn-in on computer screens, but at the same time I am just wondering about how others use their phones, my last 4 phones had OLED and I have never had any burn in occur. I bought a used Galaxy S4 mini at some point and when I got it had slight burn-in of some icons, but it didn't get any worse in the two years I was using it. Am I maybe just too old because I use a computer while young people use their phones for 10 hours a day? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] ricdeh@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago As a young person that uses their phone extensively, daily driving both a Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus from 2019 and a Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra from 2024 for about 6 to 7 hours every day, I can tell you that at least for flagships, AMOLED display burn-in is a non-issue, it arguably does not exist. permalink fedilink source parent [–] ricdeh@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (3 children) I cannot confirm. The phone I'm writing these very words on is a Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus from 2019 running LineageOS 20, and the AMOLED display is absolutely gorgeous and looks as good as today's top-tier smartphone screens. But maybe that's because this is a Samsung flagship, and Samsung is notorious for making kind of the absolute best displays for their flagships. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 6 child comments replies: [–] captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 years ago S10e owner here, still running the stock Android. The display looks factory fresh. Battery is slightly tired but still quite functional, I just wish they'd keep sending updates. permalink fedilink source parent [–] T156@lemmy.world 1 point 2 years ago Note 9 owner here, and there's definitely a little over the years (particularly where the status bar is), but it's usually impossible to notice. You only pick it up with a blank colour where the difference becomes more apparent. permalink fedilink source parent [+] umbrella@lemmy.ml 1 point 2 years ago* (last edited 1 year ago) [deleted] permalink fedilink source parent
