Re: OLED: Prettier but shorter life than LCD

And yet, my > 4 year old OLED phone has no noticeable burn. In hardware test with a blue test screen the narrow strip at the top for the status bar is just about discernible (oddly, that's usually darker than the rest, so not sure what's going on there), not on any other colours. So it is possible to get decent life out of them. Regardless it can happen, so one argument for sticking with capacitive buttons rather than on-screen to get a slightly larger display with burnt in images at one end.
