Hello Guys,
Im from the Netherlands and have a question i would like to hear y áll opinion about my dilemma.
A few days ago i bought a LG Oled55c9. My old bedroom tv broke and i quickly bought this one because of the good reviews and the "future proof" specs. Also because its an oled....i already have a 65inch qled in my livingroom and i was thinking it would be nice to have an oled in the bedroom. (best of both worlds haha. I love my qled because its very crisp and bright, wich i personally like a lot. Im a high brightness guy lol)
Normally i always do my homework on my purchases but this c9 i bought maybe a bit to quickly.
My problem is that i never heard of Oled burnin. The more i searched and read about it the more frightened i got. I read that oled isnt for everybody and you should not leave static images etc. on your screen.
My issue is that i use my bedroom tv for 90% cable tv, off wich 70% is soccergames. The other 20% is ps4.
The cable tv channels here in Netherlands all have static logos. Most of them are pretty big and white but the channels i watch most are yellow and blue with some orange. (i watch fox sports and fox etc..)
The other channels have white logos, some are a bit transparent but others are fully white.
Also the ps4 has static images, like lifebars in RPG games etc...
Now, i know you should change channel now and then, but i mostly watch fox sports and like i said, all channels here on cable tv have those ******* logos.
My c9 is on around average 4 hours a day in the evening. When i play ps4 i play the same game for a few hours in a row, every day until the game is finished.
Sometimes when i watch a movie on cable tv, there are advertising blocks between, but also every movie here has Dutch subtitles.
Right now im really afraid of burnin to come because i mostly watch the same channels and i play ps4 for multiple hours in a row. Also all channels here have these logos. All of these reasons make me scared about future burnin. I dont want to replace my tv in about 2 year and buy a new one because im not a rich mofo haha.
Im thinking about sending my c9 back and get a samsung q90r or q85r (i dont know the difference between these 2 but i can research this offcourse)
I paid 1299 euros for the c9 here in Netherlands but will also become 100 euros cashback, wich makes the total price at 1199 euros for the c9, wich is a hell of a deal here because normal price is 1899 euros.
I can get the q90r for around 1600 right now.
What are your opinions about this? Is my fear justified? I can tell you doesnt feel nice to watch my new tv right now because i read all this burnin issues. (ps. yes i leave my tv on standby and i have pixel shifting on and logo luminance on HIGH, altough i dont see any difference with the logos)
Thank you guys in advance, and please, its not my intention to create a oled vs qled thread, so please dont make it one.
