      I’m posting this from a 7 year old phone with an OLED screen. The screen still looks as good as the day I bought it.

      I cannot confirm. The phone I’m writing these very words on is a Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus from 2019 running LineageOS 20, and the AMOLED display is absolutely gorgeous and looks as good as today’s top-tier smartphone screens. But maybe that’s because this is a Samsung flagship, and Samsung is notorious for making kind of the absolute best displays for their flagships.

        S10e owner here, still running the stock Android. The display looks factory fresh. Battery is slightly tired but still quite functional, I just wish they’d keep sending updates.

        Note 9 owner here, and there’s definitely a little over the years (particularly where the status bar is), but it’s usually impossible to notice. You only pick it up with a blank colour where the difference becomes more apparent.

      I am worried about burn-in on computer screens, but at the same time I am just wondering about how others use their phones, my last 4 phones had OLED and I have never had any burn in occur. I bought a used Galaxy S4 mini at some point and when I got it had slight burn-in of some icons, but it didn’t get any worse in the two years I was using it. Am I maybe just too old because I use a computer while young people use their phones for 10 hours a day?

        As a young person that uses their phone extensively, daily driving both a Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus from 2019 and a Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra from 2024 for about 6 to 7 hours every day, I can tell you that at least for flagships, AMOLED display burn-in is a non-issue, it arguably does not exist.
