Additional Review Notes
We did a more in-depth investigation into Dolby Vision performance, and found that there is a difference in brightness between the native apps, and when playing Dolby Vision content from an external player. We took brightness measurements of the same spot in a movie, and compared the measurements from the native app, from an Xbox One, and from an Apple TV. On both the X950G and X900F, the native apps were brighter than the same content played from the external devices.
As a sanity check, we then took the exact same measurements from the same equipment on the TCL R617, and the LG E8. With both of these TVs, the brightness measurements were extremely similar (within margin of error), regardless of source.

I assume you’re referring specifically to burn-in? If that’s the case, I doubt it would cause any issues if you’ve been fine with a plasma for this long and have no retention. There are other differences that you’ll notice when jumping from a plasma to a more recent OLED, though, especially when it comes to motion handling.

Sounds good! I only owned my plasma for a few years but never had any issues on it. I think maybe we had some temporary image retention here and there, but nothing crazy. I’ve been on a budget $600 Samsung 65” for the last several years, so I’m sure anything would be an upgrade from this.
