Hi Fans,
OLED’s are used today in mobile phones, digital cameras, VR headsets, tablets, laptops, and TVs. In 2018, over 500 million AMOLED screens were produced - mostly to satisfy demand from mobile phone vendors.
In today’s post, I would like to explain in more detail what is an OLED screen and how can we reduce the probability of a screen burn-in.
What is the OLED screen?
OLED screen is made of organic light-emitting diodes. Because of its self-luminescence characteristics, there is no need for a backlight. At the same time, the OLED screen has advantages of high contrast, thin thickness, wide angle of view, fast response, flexible panel, wide working temperature range, easy production, and etc. It is considered as the mainstream technology of the next-generation display.
However, the OLED screen also has some cons, such as its expensive price, possible screen burn-in issues and so on.
Screen burn-in is a unique issue of the OLED display. It is not confined to any specific brands. As long as it is an OLED screen, there is always a possible screen burn-in issue.
Why does it happen?
Because OLED self-luminescent organic materials (in red light, green light, blue light) have different lifetime curves. If an OLED screen keeps displaying a still picture for a long time, the luminous efficiency of these three color materials in this area will be different from the dynamic display area, leaving what looks like a ghost image in that area. Such an image retention issue caused by the aging of self-luminescent pixels is irreversible, and dynamic display can make the lifetime of the three color luminous materials more equal and longer.
Although the possibility of an OLED screen burn-in issue cannot be completely ruled out, we can still reduce the possibility by some setting methods. Please see some tips below.
How to reduce the probability of occurrence of an OLED screen burn-in issue?
-Lower the brightness of the display as much as possible or just simply turn on automatic brightness.
-Set the time before the screen going to sleep less than 1 or 2 minutes.
-Hide the notch on top of the screen by going to Settings - Display - More display settings - Notch - Hide notch.
-Choose a dark wallpaper and replace it regularly or use a dynamic wallpaper.
-Use a darker theme keyboard.
-Use the gesture navigation.
This is all for today, please feel free to ask questions in the comment section below.
Cheers!
