At the recent Gamescom exhibition, MSI not only presented various new products, but also shared the results of an interesting experiment. Its stand featured an OLED monitor that had been running continuously for 533 days — and its condition, contrary to myths about the burnout of such matrices, remained more than satisfactory.
An MSI employee clarified that the monitor had actually been working for three years, and 533 days was the period of its last “marathon”. At the same time, there were almost no traces of burnout on the matrix: the company claims that complaints mainly relate to OLED panels manufactured using old technologies.
During the experiment, the monitor displayed the Windows taskbar, browser tabs, and static images. At the same time, OLED Care 2.0 technology was used to protect the matrix, combining the functions Pixel Shift (shifts pixels to reduce the load) and Static Screen Detection (reduces brightness when the screen displays a static image).
The company also announced OLED Care 3.0 technology, one of the innovations of which will be a CMOS sensor capable of recognizing faces and “understanding” when the user moves away from the monitor. It is more complex than the proximity sensor, and the screen will not turn on if, for example, a pet approaches it.
