Yeah that sounds about right but the weird thing was “one minute it wasn’t there at all and the next minute it was really bad” and I’ve had 2kuros and a zt60 so I know how to look after a plasma screen for I/r and s/b if you what I mean,it was about 3 years old when it appeared and now if I put up a red slide there are marks of screen burn everywhere in places that just shouldn’t be there especially the YouTube and Netflix logos on the smart menu which has never been on for long just the time it takes to select something it just doesn’t make sense to me but maybe someone on here could explain what has happened.So around 14000hours if say 11hours a day.
Funny as Rtings said the viewing angles were mediocre in their review but the same TV I saw in store looked impressive .Veiwing angles are great on this set, it has x wide angle technology
Tbh mate I don't rate rtings at all, a lot of what they say and do is garbage.Funny as Rtings said the viewing angles were mediocre in their review but the same TV I saw in store looked impressive .

Thats exactly what happened with my c6 See post 5127I have the LG 65 E6 OLED and also the LG 65 B7 OLED.
Both have screen burn.
I first noticed the screen burn on the E6 a few months ago.
It is only visible with certain colours. There is a horizontal thin line covering about 70% of the screen width and also a box with top menu in text that is visible.
It appears to me that the screen is unable to produce shades of red and flesh tones in the affected areas but it can prod uniform greens and whites and other colours. The fault affected areas seem to be outputting no illumination and appear to be a dark grey.
Currently watching snooker the screen is perfect. Watching TV programmes and movies it is occasionally obvious depending on the screen content.
I am disappointed to have recently discovered this with the E6 but would not wish to replace it as I have a collection of 3D movies.
With mixed screen images the fault is not very noticeable but it is more obvious on more uniform colour areas.
The burn appeared almost over night and I have no obvious explanation.
I suspected the horizontal line may coincide with the news channels but I am at a loss to see where the box with text for "top menu " has came from.
I have the 65 LG B7 OLED in the Kitchen and just noticed faint signs of image retention during the BBC series The Planets.
The B7 was from Richer sounds and it is part of the power board recall.
Does anyone know if they would consider a warranty claim for screen burn if it becomes more of an issue.
I really enjoy my OLED viewing but will most likely look at alternatives for my next purchases.

Thats correctLooks like, OLED tv's doesn't have burn in.
Problem is that red subpixels have short lifespan

I had the Netlfix logo (burnt out red pixels) on my E6 55" at the end of last year. Bought from Richer Sounds beginning of 2017. RS weren't overly helpful to begin but after pushing back and direct messaging RS on here they offered the panel replacement scheme for free (not 3D) or the option to trade in and upgrade which is the option I took.
Looks like you've even got the volume bar on the right. Even if the retailer/manufacturer argues you've had too much static content, they can't say that the volume bar is abuse of any kind.
Hoping for some up to date advice. LG B7 bought from Currys in Aug 2017 - bad image retention, smearing and colour block/patchiness after regular viewing of Sky (in fairness been like this for nearly 12 months but haven't had the gumption for the inevitable battle to get it sorted). Any remedy likely to be available and, if so, do I badger Currys or LG? Any and all help appreciated.
Interesting. Would you drop me a line with details of who you emailed etc?I'm in almost exactly same position except mine is a 65 B6 bought from Curry's in April 2017 - mine caused by combination of Sky and xbox gaming.
I contacted LG today and have emailed them some photos - they've said their tech dept will review them and contact me in next 14 days - anyone know what (if anything?!) offer I could hope for/should expect from them?
Thanks in advance!

Anyone have an idea what’s going on with my brand new LG GX55 OLED? The grey areas build up over 15-30 seconds and then goes away when the text scrolls on the screen. Is this the panel trying to protect itself somehow?View attachment 1442391
