A:Answer Heavy gamer/audiophile/cinema snob here. This tv is absolutely amazing. Granted, I’ve only had it for a month, however, in that time you can usually tell if you’re going to have banding problems or burn in. There are plenty of tests you can take, the tv has a built in test which I feel is a little biased and has too much leniency. YouTube LG OLED test for banding to ensure you don’t have a faulty model. Also, for gamers, it is highly recommended during the first month-two months of ownership you play games with static images somewhere on screen like a radar or health bar. After long gaming sessions, you’ll want to ensure those static images have not left a burn in image on your screen. However, the one note to make is longevity of OLED. It is a new technology and models from 2015 have already burnt out by now. However, with next years introduction of HDMI 2.1, a small upgrade would be the smart bet if you still want to upgrade now. There is very little material that can take advantage of HDMI 2.1 as of right now, and it won’t be really taken advantage of until Q4 2020 or Q1 2021 with the new consoles, which are reportedly being developed with HDMI 2.1 ports to utilize eARC and VRR.
