  • Why the 'iPhone 8' may see Apple finally adopt OLED

    Recently, while waiting for my flight at London Heathrow airport, I was checking out latest Samsung tablet and Galaxy edge phone with OLED displays at a store in the departure lounge. I noticed that both had very noticeable screen burn-in visible as reddish areas on plain white backgrounds. On my return to the US, I visited a BestBuy store and again checked out Samsung OLED tablet and phone and again I noticed the same issues. I realize that items on display in stores are on most of the time so screen burn-in can be more of an issue but if I were to use a tablet as a point-of-sale terminal, screen burn-in with OLED display would be an issue. I have been using my iPad 2 extensively since 2011 and not had any display issues. I hope Apple takes this into consideration when switching to OLED displays. Blue OLED pixels have a much shorter life span.
