Samsung's S90C has gen 1 panels which may have substantial burn-in probability but does C3 have it too?
Am getting cold feet with respect to OLED, so want to ask If one is using a TV to just project from laptop thru HDMI, will a QLED TV suffice? Because all video will be processed on the laptop itself.
As with every mass produced product in existence, there are going to be some units that have issues. Burn-in is very unlikely these days. It generally comes down to getting a bad panel. Burn-in was a big problem 5-6 years ago. A friend of mine has a 5-year-old OLED that has gotten tons of use, and there is zero burn-in still. My C2 has 5,300 hours on it and no sign of burn-in. I leave it on static images all the time. Unless you just get a bad panel, it's very unlikely you'll ever get burn-in. It's no reason to stay away from OLED. No other display compares to OLED and QD-OLED.

One other thing I forgot to mention is that some people mistake "temporary image retention" for burn-in. I've had it happen once. I was playing a videogame and I didn't move the camera for a little while, and there was a faint outline of a bright lamp that I had left the screen sitting on. It would follow as I moved the camera. I ran the TV's pixel cleanup and that fixed it right away. Rtings (the #1 electronics review site) has a video that mentions TIR, and that it's not the same as burn-in. Again, I've only had it happen once in all the time I've had the TV. I even tried to get it to happen a second time, by doing the same thing, and I couldn't replicate it. I'm willing to bet there are people who've had that happen, and then they go straight to complaining online about having burn-in.
Maybe, BUT this is all about cleaning house as the new models arrive, so would a store with more old model units be more compelled to reduce the prices to make space for the new ones? I don't know, just a thought. In summary, go visit them all
I didn't count how many 55s they had, but I did count 5 units off the 65 model. Getting anxious here. I hope I'm able to swing by when they do decide to pull the plug (which I want to believe they'll do at some point since the C4s are already arriving)

Not putting down the C3 at all as it is a fantastic TV, reason why I have it and kept it.
Mini led is better for bright rooms thus Sony and Samsung has these as their top of lineup this 2024

People really need to stop worry about burn in. It's a non issue. It's been the big buggaboo since the plasma days and even back then with older technology it was largely a non issue. Nowadays with pixel shift and built in cleaning programs it's a total non issue. Only time I would worry about it is when considering buying a display model.
As a personal anecdote my main TV is a 15 year old plasma and I game with persistent static displays. The only issue I had was some temporary image retention when I paused Star Wars on a Hoth scene. It was gone in a couple days.
Also for the technology itself Wulfden has done a test on YouTube where he's had an OLED Switch on a static screen or over a year and it finally got burn in after months and months of being constantly on. So again. Burn in for OLED is a non issue.
