Three year test shows OLED is significantly more reliable than LCD, with most lasting more than 10,000 hours — 20 TVs failed out of 102 tested

RTINGS conducted a three-year longevity test on 102 TVs, revealing that OLED TVs are significantly more reliable than LCD counterparts, with most lasting over 10,000 hours. Out of the tested TVs, 20 failed and 24 suffered partial damage. LG and TCL emerged as the most reliable brands, with low failure rates. OLED TVs showed resilience despite burn-in issues, while LCDs with edge-lit LED arrays were more prone to failure. The test also highlighted the importance of panel type and price in determining TV reliability.
