What is burn-in? On OLED and AMOLED displays, pixels showing the same bright element for a long time (taskbar, status bar, logo) can degrade permanently, leaving a faint ghost image. This tool helps you detect it early.

What Is OLED Burn-In?

OLED burn-in occurs when certain pixels experience uneven wear after displaying static content for extended periods. This can leave faint permanent images visible even when the original content is no longer displayed.

Common examples include:

  • Navigation bars
  • Channel logos
  • Game HUD elements
  • Status bars
  • Desktop taskbars

Burn-in is most noticeable on solid color backgrounds and low-brightness scenes.

What Is Image Retention?

Image retention is a temporary form of screen ghosting where previously displayed content remains faintly visible for a short period.

Unlike permanent burn-in, image retention often disappears after displaying varied content or turning off the screen for some time.

Testing helps determine whether the issue is temporary image retention or permanent burn-in.

What is OLED burn-in?

OLED burn-in is permanent image retention caused by uneven pixel wear after displaying static content for long periods.

Permanent burn-in cannot usually be completely removed. However, some devices offer pixel refresh features that may reduce its visibility.

No. Image retention is typically temporary, while burn-in is permanent.

All OLED displays can potentially experience burn-in, although modern devices include technologies to reduce the risk significantly.

Yes. The OLED burn-in test tool is completely free and works directly in your browser.
