and still get full charge performance for quite some time but eventually you'd burn through the extra 25% battery.
You can use more power hungry apps and disable your power saving features, screen timeouts, run higher screen brightness when you don't need to, leave the screen on when you aren't looking at it etc. Or you might think of it like a phone or tablet's battery you are using that has an extra 25% charge module, yet after you turn on your device and start using it you have no idea what your battery charge level is. It's like having a huge array of candles that all burn down unevenly - but with 25% more candle beneath the table so that you can push them all up a little once in awhile and burn them all down level again. The buffer seems like a decent system for increasing OLED screen's lifespan considering what we have for now. might be the first thing to burn-in when the time comes but on the modern LG OLEDs I think the whole screen would be down to that buffer-less level and vulnerable at that point as it would have been wearing down the rest of the screen in the routine to compensate all along over a long time. but you will be shortening it's lifespan wearing down the buffer of all the other emitters to match your consistently abused area(s).Ī taskbar, persistent toolbar, or a cross of bright window frames the middle of the same 4 window positions or whatever.
So you could be fine abusing the screen outside of recommended usage scenarios for quite some time thinking your aren't damaging it, and you aren't sort-of. As far as I know there is no way to determine what % of that buffer is remaining. However, with the ~25% wear-evening routine buffer you won't know how much you are burning down the emitter range until one day you realize that you've bottomed out that buffer. Primarily that, but along with the other brightness limiters and logo dimming, pixel shift, and the turn off the "screen"(emitters) trick if utilized, should extend the life of the screens considerably. To answer your second question about lifespan, I'm pasting one of my other replies here from other conversations:įrom what I read the modern LG OLEDs reserve the top ~ 25% of their brightness/energy states outside of user available range for their wear-evening routine that is done in standby periodically while plugged in and powered. There are other articles about it online if you look around. It also senses any TFT (Thin Film Transistor) voltage changes during power off to detect and correct pixel degradation by comparing it with a set reference value. The Pixel Refresher feature, built into LG OLED TVs, automatically detects pixel deterioration through periodic scanning, compensating for it as needed. To answer your first question - LG's system compares the oled emitters to a set of reference values, checking for voltage fluctuations to the emitters/transistors during times the screen has been off for awhile.
