    Who is buying a $1399 monitor and only planning on using it for 3 years outside of a really small group of people?

        No but OLED burn-in is something that is going happen from use, it’s not a ‘maybe it’ll fail in 5 years’ like an LCD monitor would be.

          Plenty of people have OLED TVs that last longer than that, depends on the use case.

          My laptop has an OLED screen and I’m pretty sure it’s older than 5yo now. No burn in. No dead pixels

          I’ve been using an OLED as my primary monitor every day for three years now; the burn-in issues are greatly exaggerated. Not a single sign of burn-in, and I even disabled some of the protective features in the service menu to get a brighter picture. Modern panels are very good at mitigating the issue.
