Has anyone noticed burn-in on their Samsung G85SB OLED?

Discussion

I'm very worried about burn-in but I really do like this monitor.

All 3 of my QD-OLED screens on my gaming rig seem to still be sweet. Both of my G8 OLEDs, no issues so far. Just gone through 1500 hours on my main G8 OLED, my second G8 OLED is coming up to 800 hours, the second one I use for a lot of static stuff so will be interesting to see how that one does. My 65S95B is over 2000 hours now, no issues with burn in yet, but I'd imagine it wouldn't show this early.

I am modding, 3d stuff, xml, school stuff, gaming, causal web browsing etc... Keep brighness low in SDR content, I have mine at 10 and maximum you can set is 50 so its around 20% in scale 0-100%. I am not worrying burn in for next 2-3 years and aftert that I might already upgrade my monitor.

Edit: Take a look at this video which is 2 years using oled as pc monitor: https://youtu.be/QqVwlMmL4mw

Spoiler: no burn in.

The monitor is relatively new so I doubt many people would have had it for more than 6-8 months. We'd have to wait and see. rtings's also running a longevity test: https://www.rtings.com/monitor/reviews/samsung/odyssey-oled-g8-g85sb-s34bg85

Lets say burn-in does happen for you, it doesn't make the monitor unusable. You can still use it like normal, only you will occasionally notice a dim outline on your screen.
