Went to Best Buy today to see if there were any E6's still around, and of course, not. The salesman pushed the Samsung Q7 instead, extolling its separate cable box and small diameter, low-vis cable. Mostly he downplayed OLED's for their "burn in" risk and one year warranty against it, vs. Samsung's 2 year. He also harped on some notion of there being gaps between OLED "pixels" that were dead space, as opposed to no such gaps with quantum technology. Naturally he had a badge touting him as a Samsung expert, no doubt commissioned accordingly.
So is there such an increased risk of screen burn in on an OLED, and what about his so-called 'gaps'? I'm not that big a fan of Samsung, preferring Sony over the decades, or more recently LG.
