Does this TV have Burn-in null

Burn in on OLED units takes a lot of effort, to be honest. It typically happens when the same static image displays on the TV for an extended period of time - say 4 hours a day for weeks, if not months. The most common example is watching a news channel every day and having the channel's logo burn in. For example - if you're watching Channel 4 News and the little Channel 4 logo displays in the lower right or left hand corner. Again it takes some serious effort to make this burn in. If you're using the TV mainly to stream movies or TV shows, without any logos or overlays constantly on the screen, you'll be just fine. Also, once the TV has been used for ~1,000 hours or so, the window for burn in even being a potential to happen all but disappears. Hope this helps! There's a decent amount of literature about the subject on Google if you're interested in learning more about it.

Burn-in and image retention are possible on virtually any display. It is rare for an average TV consumer to create an environment that could result in burn-in. Most cases of burn-in in televisions is a result of static images or on-screen elements displaying on the screen uninterrupted for many hours or days at a time – with brightness typically at peak levels. So, it is possible to create image retention in almost any display if one really tries hard enough. And even if image retention does occur from extreme usage, it can usually be mitigated within a short period of time by turning the display off for a while, and watching a few hours of varying content (such as your standard TV watching and channel-surfing). OLED TVs have special features and settings to preserve image quality and prevent burn in and image retention. First, under OLED Screen Saver there is the Pixel Refresher that calibrates any issues that may arise on the screen when your TV has been turned on for a long time. Calibration takes more than an hour. The second feature that can be employed is the Screen Shift feature which, moves the screen slightly at regular intervals to preserve image quality. A third option is the Logo Luminance Adjustment, which can detect static logos on the screen and reduce brightness to help decrease permanent image retention. ^Daphane
