My wife and I bought an LG OLED C7P a couple of weeks ago from Amazon on sale and love it. Before purchasing I was aware of reported burn-in issues, but I couldn't really tell if it was the smallest percent of people who own this TV being the loudest about their issues. As a lot of the crew has this TV, and seemingly so do a lot of people on this forum, I figured this would be a pretty good place to ask.
We don't have cable, so the TV is used for streaming shows, movies and games only. I don't think you can get burn-in from letterboxed content on OLED because the black pixels are 'off', but is that something I should be concerned about? I know HUDs in games could be an issue, but have any of you experienced issues with it? I've also been hesitant to watch any GB content through my Roku because the stream set-ups are pretty 'static' frames of talking heads, and haven't gone back to Fallout: New Vegas because I'm worried about the HUD when I fall into a longer session (3-4 hours).
We've logged 107 hours into the TV, and I've been looking closely and haven't noticed anything so far after playing a decent amount God of War and Stardew Valley. I know burn-in is possible but I really don't know how worried I should actually be about it. Am I just being overly paranoid?
