I’ve been wanting to buy a Pixel for a while now (for GrapheneOS), but there’s always something that bothers me too much.
This time around, the Pixel 9 pro sounds like it will be great, but I’ll be waiting to see Google’s custom SoC using TSMC for the Pixel 10.
I could always just get the 9 later at a lower price or used.
That’s true. But if you look into the test, it includes monitors and has them showing footage with static elements.
At the 6 months mark, which is aprox. 2.5 years real life usage according to RTings, the monitors barely had any burn-in according to RTings - Although I couldn’t see any burn-in. If you compare it to the non-OLED TVs at that mark, many of those had very noticeable uniformity (and other) issues.
So according to this test, the monitors are already doing better than LCDs.
Other than the Samsung S95C which is the newest model in their test.
16 months of extremely intensive tests which isn’t how you’ll use these IRL. Which is why they refer to it as “accelerated longevity test”.
If you’ll read a bit more about the test and the results, you’ll see that all of the LCDs there are also having other permanent issues.
According to them, if your usage includes varied content, burn in won’t be an issue.
If you don’t, reading more about the test and about specific monitors / TVs you’re curious about will give you a better idea.
Have you seen RTings’ articles about this?

Seems to really depend on your usage, and newer ones are even better according to their latests test:

There’s a page about it now, and there’s an option to be notified once it’s out
Ah that’s unfortunate.
I wish the default wasn’t Discord but it seems like what most do these days.
But I’ve heard they’re also quite responsive over email if you have any questions.
At their site once it’s out.
They also have a Discord where they give updates and answer questions.
Glove80 will have a case made for it very soon. Might want to take that into account.
The case compared to the Advantage360
Well I got some info about it if anyone’s interested.
“Originally was SM2258 (w/DRAM) + TLC, they may have moved to the SM2259 or equivalent now (they still list DRAM). Probably newer TLC. Can’t rule out QLC (“3D NAND”) but the performance and TBW specs look pretty good (0.3 DWPD is typical for TLC).”
Another option: Pine64’s board
Yeah? For me it’s great, but I think americans and europians can find lower prices.
You should check out camelcamelcamel for price changes on Amazon. Samsung’s 870 EVO 4tb ssd was recently sold at 170$
About 190$
I’ve seen other ssds in that price, but I usually need to add tax + shipping to that.
Yeah it’s in the description
