hi everyone Aaron here for ZolloTech and many of you have been asking me lately
how are the iphones holding up as far as screen burnin on the OLED display phones
so if you have an OLED display phone such as an iPhone X, XS, XS Max, 11
Pro or 11 Pro Max they're technically more prone to screen burnin than any
other style of display currently available for iPhones so LCDs can get
burnin or what I mean is a ghosting of an image so for example if you have the
messages app in the upper right for a long period of time on a very bright
display will that image be there sometimes in the background sort of
ghosted even if you're on a different screen and so I wanted to show you on
this phone you can check this by looking at a white or all grey black background
on these phones and since this phone is the oldest iPhone I have in my house
that has an OLED display this is an iPhone X and this is the
phone that's been used by my wife since the day the iPhone X came out so it's
still in use full-time has been used over two years at this point so they
came out in September of 2017 it's been in use every single day since and so I
can show you that as well with the battery the battery health on this one
is 90% after a couple of years at this point and then if we go over here you'll
see it's in regular use you've got all the different battery stats and
everything so this is a phone that's used regularly all the time and so the
screen burnin can be a concern and especially when you get to very very
bright displays such as that on the 11pro max screen burnin can show up but
it's very less likely these days because companies like Apple and Samsung do
things to sort of shift the pixels around so they don't stay stagnant for
too long so you don't get that residual image now the image that I would expect
to be burned in if any would be the battery the Wi-Fi and the LTE and maybe
the clock or the little arrow more specifically and especially because you
leave all these different icons the same so the way you would check this is go
into your photos and maybe get an all grey uniform background
if you do a search on Google for a gray background to check for screen burnin
this is what you'll find and so you can set the background to this and then look
for any ghosts in images you can also set it for white so let's
take a look on the older phone and see if there's any screen burnin now I have
checked this myself let's go over to this there's the gray screen and I've
even turned it up all the way I've looked around for any sort of burnin and
I haven't seen anything I don't see anything in the upper right you turn
this back down so you can see it but there's nothing in the upper right as
far as a ghosted image and then of the icons are down here at the bottom and it
seems to be holding up really well now if I go over to say a white image here I
have one here you can do the same thing and look all the way around the display
and I don't see any images ghost it in whatsoever and so this is really great
news and this is pretty typical of modern OLED displays when it comes to
iPhones or samsung s10 pluses things like that they have a lot of built in
technology to really eliminate the residual images that can be left behind
so I haven't been able to see anything I looked all over the place and just could
not see it and stared at it for quite some time and if you turn it to a black
display it actually shuts off the pixels so you really can't see anything there
so again with this image on the iPhone 11 Pro max I'm not seeing anything and I
wouldn't expect anything this has only been in use since September so not
seeing any residual ghosted images or anything like that and my wife has not
complained of anything like that she would let me know if she's seeing
something in the background and I haven't seen anything and I was looking
online to see if people are experiencing this and I find that a couple say that
they are they weren't able to provide any proof I'm sure there's some out
there that are ghosted really the way you would have to do that is leave the
display at full brightness on the same image for a very long time then it would
burn in normally you won't see this and I've seen this mostly on displays that
are older or maybe plasma displays on older TVs that were on the same image a
lot and you usually used in businesses so maybe they
have a display up all day with a business sign something like that that's
where I typically see ghosting these days or burnin I don't see them too much
today so it's really good to see that the O LEDs are holding up well
they are samsung displays built for Apple to Apple specification but Apple
handles all of the ghosting or or management of burnin to make sure it
doesn't happen so I suppose under a specific situation
you might see it but right now I'm not seeing anything after a couple years and
then a few months and so that's a great sign
now maybe three four years from now we'll check back in a year or so and see
if this is still going on but right now I see no burn in whatsoever so that's
great news for the iPhone 10 or any of them in between now if you have an
iPhone 10 a 10s 10s max 11 Pro or 11 Pro max and you're able to find some
ghosting or residual images or maybe you leave it on a bright screen all the time
and you're seeing that I would love to hear from you and see if this is
something that you're experiencing and if you could capture an image of it and
send it to me I would love to see that and maybe I'll do a separate video about
that but so far I've yet to see anyone actually show that they're having major
issues with it and that's great news but again in a few years it may change it's
hard to say after three or four years because we're not at that point yet but
let me know your thoughts about it in the comments below if you'd like to get
your hands on this wallpaper of course I'll link it in the description as I
always do feel them subscribed already please subscribe and if you enjoyed the

see you next time
