Im aware of ghosting, but every LCD device I currently own, each with thousands of hours of use, do not have this issue, whereas both my pixel 2xl and my pixel 6 do, with some faint hints on my OLED Steam Deck (I tried to give OLED a third chance). My wife's name is permanently etched into the top of my 2xl, and my 6 has extreme color fading from where the notification bar is.

Ghosting is caused by a scene or display sitting still over time. It doesn't just happen with normal use.

Okay, but burn-in DOES happen with normal use on OLEDs (literally have 2, almost 3 screens with it under normal daily use, not leaving it on for prolonged periods)

That's crazy. I have all OLED stuff for 7+ years and nothing noticeable at all for ghosting.

This feels like the same energy as when people say "Works on my machine!" in a thread where someone else is asking for help with an issue. Dismissive and does not contribute to the conversation aside from an attempt at cementing the poster's opposition to the idea that there may actually be problems with the technology they're in love with.

Yeah but. I'm explaining how ghosting works to a dead horse apperantly.

No, you just desperately want to be "right" and to champion OLED as the end-all technology just because you really like it.

I get why people like it. A fresh new OLED panel looks really pretty, but people need to stop being in denial about its flaws.

A gameboy screen looks as good today as it did 30 years ago. An OLED screen has no hope of lasting that long. Ghosting or no ghosting. And, ghosting is an actually-solved problem.
