What keeps coming up
Owners describe the picture holding up over years of heavy use, still looking as bright and clean as the day they bought it after four and five years of ownership.

Owners keep the CX for its picture quality years in, and most who tracked burn in directly say it never showed up, even after thousands of hours of daily use.
Owners describe the picture holding up over years of heavy use, still looking as bright and clean as the day they bought it after four and five years of ownership.
Owners are divided on burn in specifically: some report it never appeared even after very heavy use, while others describe slight burn in, image retention, or dead pixels showing up after three to five years.
Pick up to three. You get a page with just those, side by side, on the subjects owners raised.
What becomes routine for some owners is a habit of turning the set off when not in use, which they credit with keeping the panel pristine over five-plus years. Others don't bother with that discipline and report no issues either, so there's no single required ritual, just a general awareness that OLED panels reward some care.
When burn in or retention does show up, owners describe it as minor rather than disabling, sometimes only visible on a dedicated test pattern, and a few upgraded to a newer LG model rather than living with it. The longevity theme has only a handful of accounts behind it, so the picture on long-run durability beyond five years is still thin, and that should be read as limited data rather than a verdict either way.
Counted from the owners who raised each subject, not from everyone. A subject is judged once at least 4 owners raise it.
15 more subjects came up from fewer than 4 owners each, which is not enough for a fair reading. To see how it stacks up, compare it with another machine.
