I've found a new flaw with the OLED


Recommended Posts

Burn in.

I'd take a photo, but at the moment it's really hard to see, but I can see the faintest ghost of the statusbar/the icons on it, when I'm in a program that does not show the bar.

Just thought I'd mention this to all the OLED users, and to make all the TFT users feel a bit better ;)

Can't say I've noticed any image retention yet.

havent noticed the bar but the other day while in the freezing cold i noticed a matrix of small dots on the screen. i had to tilt the screen so the light would shine sideways to see them. wasnt able to see them again though :)

not seen this either, what would cause it?

It's the OLED equivalent of burn in. OLED pixels have a finite lifespan and degrade (get dimmer) overtime. Shouldn't be happening so soon really, though.
