I have been tracking how long it takes for a Nintendo Switch OLED Model to suffer from SCREEN BURN-IN. Exactly how long does it take for an image to permanently burn itself into the screen?

  1. He isnt lying when he says that some nintendo products are durable, i recently dropped my bag with a Ds Lite in it, from THREE stories. And it didnt even get a scratch. (It was in a case)

  2. I mean, I still had a 50 inch plasma screen in my living room up until it finally died a few months ago. It was what my mother bought with her last tax return before she retired and between her and I (after she moved to Florida) we got around 12 years out of it. No burn in, but the bottom of the screen was scratched up pretty bad by my nephew when he was learning to walk.

  3. I mean… the concern with constantly charging the battery isn't so much the heat but rather the fact the battery can only do that chemical reaction so many times before it runs out of the chemical needed to be able to recharge, which with older systems with dumb charging where it is constantly pumping the juice at 100% all the time when plugged in that may have been a real concern, but devices are getting smarter and a lot of newer devices have a brain to tell the charging port how much power to pull and so drains the life of the battery much much slower than older dumber devices for example my phone when it is at 15% charge will pull 20 amps from the charger to get it pretty full pretty quickly but at like 95% charge it is down to only pulling like 2 amps and at 99% it is only pulling 0.1 amps, as such with more modern devices leaving it plugged in has very little effect to the battery life span compared to only charging it when needed. So I agree with the fact that you can leave it plugged in 24/7 and it shouldn't really harm the battery in any significant way, I am just pointing out that it isn't the temp people are worried about but rather the fact that batteries can only recharge so much power before they can no longer be recharged and so they worry about wearing out that chemical quicker even though while there is probably a bit of power loss constantly being plugged in it is not near to the degree that they think.

  4. Hope the steam deck is as resilient as a switch. It's a great console sure but I see a lot of people who owns a SD having an issue with the motherboard even if they are extremely careful using it.

  5. Nintendo durability, except for crappy stick drift joycons and other issues their controllers, and a generally weak case 😉 We have OLED laptops now as well (you missed that). As an aside, plasmas were incredible, and burn in was not an issue later in the release / market cycle of Plasma's, just like OLED's. I personally feel that Plasma wasn't rivaled or equalled until OLED TV's and that was a shame, as TV manufactures gradually regressed and newer models became inferior to prior models with idiotic market gimmicks. Plasmas weren't for everyone's situation but man, I loved my Panasonic and still do, still have it, still looks amazing.

  6. I had a vintage apple iie on for over 2 years collecting temperature data. No filtering on the power outlet either. Considering how long that apple been on, before I purchased it.
    But hey, that's pretty impressive for new electronics.
