The reason it gets a bad wrap is because it isn't designed for budget TVs. The OS is a memory hog. Which all of these budget TVs don't have the on board ram to keep up with it and it results in the Home Screen lagging and pausing and every once in a while freezing and needing reset the TV.
Once you're in an app like Netflix or hbo there is no freezing. It's just the Home Screen. People flip over it because they buy these $300 TVs and expect them to work like the $2300 version.
I have the 65 in hisense that I got for $250 a few years back and while the tv studders every once in awhile (3 times a month or so) I've only had it completely freeze once.
I like the os feel and experience it gives.
Manufacturers are delivering lowest cost and higher cost options, they are not in control of your choice on this matter.

Personally for $999 I would buy an LG C1, but if buying for a family member or someone who doesn't know too much about tvs then even this is simply to much.
I would consider a U6G as a great budget tv

The display will be on-wall displaying artwork rotating (about every 5 minutes) when not in use along with a small white digital at the bottom-right of the screen (similar to the Google TV photos screensaver but without the weather). While the artwork rotates often enough to not cause burn-in, the clock is static white even as the artwork behind it transitions. Worst case (if the TV isn't used all day and only displays the artwork screensaver), the hour digit would change every hour, the tens minute digit every 10 minutes, and the minute digit every minute... but the AM indicator could be static for as much as 5 hours and PM would for upwards of 12 hours (the display powers on at 7am and off at 2am automatically via Harmony scheduling), and the colon between hours and minutes could potentially be static for 17 hours. My Kuro has a subtle image-shift feature (basically shifting the entire image up/down/left/right a few pixels every few minutes) that has made it a non-issue over many years of use.
Any thoughts on the risk of burn-in from the clock's AM/PM indicator on the C1 OLED? And if there is any image-shift feature in the LG OLEDs to prevent it?

"Because the materials used in the construction of these panels are organic, they degrade over time. OLED is a self-emissive technology, which means no backlight is required. Each pixel generates its own light, which will gradually dim over the course of a product's lifespan."
The Vizio m series which I have is excellent, the os sucks though.

Myth 2: the lifespan of OLED TVs is very limited
Online sources claim that the lifespan of an OLED panel is limited. The colors of the screen would no longer be accurate after a couple of years due to the decreasing intensity of the blue pixels. Nonsense. The LG OLED screens don't have this problem at all.
Do OLED TVs last as long as LED?
Lifespan. LG has said their OLED TVs have a lifespan of 100,000 hours to half brightness, a figure that's similar to LED LCDs. Generally speaking, all modern TVs are quite reliable.

You simply can't have any tv playing day and night, even an lcd, plasma, projector , any type of technology will burn in.
Samsung Frames 🖼 tvs are specifically designed for displaying wall art and of course watching tv. They have average contrast and for a very good reason because they will last a long time before any burn in damage.
Oleds look best in controlled lighting environment , blackout curtains for living room or bedroom. No tv looks good in any open space with light blasting everywhere.
Personally I would not use an Oled to display random art and a clock, you're shortening the life of a panel for what in my opinion is no good reason.
Take care of your Rolls Royce…….

Do not listen to the manufacturers guys, listen to this random dude on slickdeals.

now instead of cherry-picking sentences, let's look at other points in that very article you quoted:
https://www.cnet.com/tech/home-en...do-switch/
Burn-in is possible with OLED, but not likely with normal use.
Most "burn-in" is actually image retention, which goes away after a few minutes.
You'll almost certainly see image retention long before it becomes permanent burn-in.
Generally speaking, burn-in is something to be aware of, but not worry about.
"oled degrades over time"? same ballpark as LEDs. backlights degrade too, people.

so burn-in possibility for shopkins82's scenario? read life4eva's responses.

Everything I said in this thread has only been direct quotes from people who should know, people in the industry, they are not my words nor my opinion.
You know more than all the experts.
According to rtings:
"OLED TVs have great picture quality; however, there are concerns about their long-term performance due to the possibility of permanent image retention, commonly referred to as burn-in. Our previous 20 hours per day burn-in test ran for a little over two years, and the OLED TV has permanent image retention.Mar 25, 2022"
"Because the materials used in the construction of these panels are organic, they degrade over time. OLED is a self-emissive technology, which means no backlight is required. Each pixel generates its own light, which will gradually dim over the course of a product's lifespan."
I have seen no such documentation
On a related note...degradation of a C1 is going to be at about the 15 year mark at 20 hours a day usage..maybe
The bigger statement is that the technology of any TV will be long obsolete before then

Like 4-5 generations ago...things have changed from 2017 model OLED's
"Update 3/24/2022: This test ended in November 2019. OLED technology continues to improve, with innovations like LG's evo panels and Samsung's QD-OLED technology, which are likely to significantly reduce the likelihood of burn-in"

I quoted what I found according to rtings with the date it was posted in 2022, if their info was out of date where they said that that burn in occurred for them after just two years at 20 hours a day go argue with them. Tell them to update the article, tell sony and LG to also update their recommendations and warnings and tell CNET to revise their info also.
Like I said you are not arguing with me, argue with the pro's I get my info from. If the entire industry is passing along old information and wrong information you can help them sell millions of more sets, go make your arguments with them, you know more than all the experts like I said, you should share your gift with the world.

As for the burn in testing
Rtings.com.com clearly stated their were dealing with TV's from 2017 in their test . That test concluded in 2019 after two years of " torture" use
You " somehow" just didnt include that portion of their statement
You chose not to post all the details
I added them for you....
