So, my GS7 Edge is not quite four months old, and has pretty lousy screen burn, bad enough that Verizon is replacing it. But my concern is that it's not a lemon, but just the way it is and I'll have the same problem with the new one. Has no one with this phone had a screen burn problem? And without wading into the pissing match about what screen is best :-), does anyone have suggestions to try and prevent it? Especially sucks if you're using the phone much for VR. Thanks!

Anonymous, 24 Feb 2016No I haven't, but you can say this about most comments here... moreif you haven't seen the panel then shut up..AMOLED has come a long way...I can honestly it became my favourite display type with the Note 4 and Samsung has improved it more and more ever since.I have no doubt that the S6 and edge panels are even better..whats more is Samsung always shows new display tech with the Notes so expect an even better display with the Note 6

Samsung's 2015 and 2016 OLED panels are simply stunning.

the best rel world usage is a nokia/micorosft with clear black tech.. those screens work well in any lighting, and are adjustable in colour to suit your preferances.
and im no fanboy, the rest of the phone needs work (apart from the mic's which are still class leading 140db, and the pureview cameras arent bad either).

AnonD-506194, 24 Feb 2016right..because you have seen the S7 displays in person right?No I haven't, but you can say this about most comments here anyways. this problem is present since the galaxy S2 or even earlier ( I had an S2) and still evn in the new Samsung Galaxy Tab S2, those are years apart. what makes you think they now magically have fixed it? i highly doubt it. the tab S2 suffers all the amoled typical problems i mentioned in my comment. and the device is from 2015. while the s2 is 2011.... 4 years no change.

Anonymous, 24 Feb 2016What's way worse than that is the ugly color shift and the ... moreMany phones have 2 nits minimum brightness, Nexus 5x is even less (1 - 1.5 nits).
Samsung is still using PenTile matrix, not RGB.
DisplayMate is paid by manufacturers to test their panels BTW, that's their job. I wouldn't put too much stock into their "best of" since they only test a few panels a year.

Quite amusing reading the 'burn in' scare mongering of those desperate to put down AMOLED. Utter garbage.
If the S7 actually is 24% brighter than the S6 I will be impressed. The S6's screen seemed ridiculously bright at it's fullest setting.
I'm liking the low level brightness too. I have to use Good Sleep app on my old school Note2 to avoid eye strain in the evenings.
Oh & btw - it too is 4 years old now - zero 'burn in'. (Deary me!)

"Automatic brightness is now intelligent - it learns what brightness levels you like in the different lighting conditions and matches your preferences automatically."
Finally. Samsung brightness adjustments always sucked. Is this coming to the S6? It should!!!

Samsung only competes with itself in display lol.
S7 > Note 5>S6> Note4 LOL.... Very good for Samsung, why are people surprised? And the burn in shouters, My 4 year old Note 2 has no burn in. Store display models might have burn in from being one 24/7 for months to years. No user leaves there phone screen on 24 hours a day 7 days a week. So please let it rest.

I agree Samsung is pioneer in Amoled screens and S6 and Note 4/5 show no signs of burn in but S6 was only 2nd of it's kind with a flexible Amoled, first being Note Edge. Unfortunately, S6 Edge's screen suffers badly from screen burn in. You can go and check some demo S6 Edge phones in stores.
It is shamefull that Samsung deny any repair to my and many other phones calling it a sign of usage. Still, they launch similar phone S7 Edge and you never know will the life spam of flexible Amoled will be any better.
