I've been using this TV exclusively for PC for the past 100 hours so far and it does suffer from minor burn in, that is only visible during completely black screens. If you do not have the brightness properly adjusted, it will have white streaks in the center, that are very feint; but if you turn the TV off for about 6 hours it goes away until you use it again for over 5 hours. A properly calibrated TV, you will not notice the burn in at all.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Doesn't appear to be a problem - they seem to have licked it as the current LG OLEDs are third generation with very bright pictures (too bright for my room - I had to dial mine back a bit to avoid a headache). If you don't run them at full brightness - the life appears to be about normal for an LED-based TV.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I think LG did a great job at preventing it. If you have a static image on-screen for an extended period of time, the display will move the image around for you. It looks like it's jittering until you move the image. I believe it's kind of like a burn-in preventer. Same thing happens when a static image of extreme white is on-screen. To prevent OLED decay it slowly starts to dim the image. I haven't had my set for long enough to tell you, but I haven't read anywhere that owners have had problems yet. However, the TV sets are new still and even early adopters probably don't have that many use hours out of them. You're best bed is to check a Best Buy and turn off the floor model. That thing is on 24/7.
