IPS Screen Burn In?

[ShinyTop]

Probably come under the category of everybody knows but me. My last two phones had screen burn at about the year mark. They were the Droid Incredible and GNex. Will the IPS screen on the G2 suffer burn in? I usually leave screen at 20-40% with the usual time limits before it goes out.

None of my iPhones have suffered from burn in ever they use IPS. Both the incredible and gnex use crApMOLED and as such have poor color accuracy and daylight visibility. That being said LG isn't messing around the G2 is going to be amazing especially for Sprint customers. TDLTE FTW!

Yeah no issues with my iPhone 4 IPS display in 2 years! Wouldn't worry that much about it!

Apple has had issues with the Retina MacBook Pro (LG display) iPad 2nd gen - 4th gen (lg displays), and iPad mini (lg displays). Now not all panels exhibit this and the image persistence has been addressed on the MacBook pros by replacing the defective screen (Samsung panel) or newer LG panels have had the defect resolved. It seems to stem from poor electrical conduction and holding a residual charge. I'm sure other manufacturers have had this happen, and it does dissipate after a few minutes. But it's aggravating none the less. LG is hit and miss in this regard and Apple is the king of hiding these facts from consumers and never owning up, but just replacing without acknowledging fault.

Now the new MacBook Pros don't seem to have this issue with LG screens but some current iMacs have and the iPad minis continue to. Likely a yield issue and they are trying to meet quotas. But with their own logo on the device, I'd assume they are cherry picking the screens. Either way, try the device and before your return period is up, put a solid grey image on after you've had something else open for 10 minutes and you can see if its doing it or not.

Never seen any burn-in on any of my devices..having never owned an AMOLED based device, I hope that answers that question.
