I don't know if it's been there since day one or if it happened after some time, but I only noticed it yesterday. A little behind the middle of the monitor, the right part of the backlight is darker than the rest of the panel. It is separated by a precise line from the bottom to the top and ends about 5 cm from the right edge (the right edge is hard to see in the photos). It is most visible on dark grays, but overall the entire panel has a very dirty irregular gray color. I have owned the monitor since December 3, 2024 and it is only used for playing games and browsing the Internet. I have all the protections on full as much as possible and I clean the pixels twice a day, now it shows that I have cleaned the pixels 195 times during that time. I tried to pull out the power cable and connect DP instead of HDMI 2.1 and the same result. My firmware is 023. Is this for RMA?

Hi
It does look like a slight burn in. Quite quick, but then it all depends what games you're playing, what brightness etc..

I have brightness at 64 and I change games often, I never play one type of game for a long time and I don't play for many hours at a time. There is no game or anything else while browsing the internet that would burn it in such a wide area. I am quite careful about burning. I think it has been a defect since day one and I just didn't notice it.

Yes, I will apply for an RMA this week and then I will let you know out of curiosity if they recognize something like this as a defect with the OLED panel.
