Contact LG they will hopefully replace the screen for £150 odd.Playing Hearthstone has burned my screen, ah well.
My sister got her LG 65E7 OLED screen replaced after 3 years and they game and watch all news channels. New screen is great! Let us know how you get on.Really? Well won't it just burn all over again? However that is the best option with my current budget. Hey your Gel again, nice one I prefer it.
Could always try calling?Well, I sent them an email for screen replacement. I'll will let you know how I get on, thanks.
No probs mate, that’s what I will do when my LG gets screen burn too. Kinda makes a mockery of John Lewis £140 protection plan because you may not get screen burn but still have to pay £140 for the plan. This way you know your money is well spent.Ok, I called...
£200, 2 weeks for repair. They will pick up and deliver. Cheers gel.
No probs Dom. Hope you get it all sorted and back as new.He was very friendly and wanted to look at the screen burn, using my phone we started a video call and saw the screen burn. He said it would be absolutely fine to repair the screen.
Now there's a problem, when I send the TV off, I don't actually have a spare. If I can persuade my mum to donate her monitor for 2 weeks maybe I can get this thing sorted.
BTW Thanks.
Can’t they come and replace the screen in your home? I watched a video on YouTube where 2 LG authorised repairers replaced the panel in about 30 minutes in the guy’s living room….no problem.He was very friendly and wanted to look at the screen burn, using my phone we started a video call and saw the screen burn. He said it would be absolutely fine to repair the screen.

There are a number of videos on this but this is the one I watched.. quite amusing!Hi, I'll talk to the representive again see what he says. Though that was never mentioned. Thanks for the help.
I think you mean CRT not LCD for ‘back in the day’. LCD does not get ‘burn in’. 🙂burn marks are caused by constant picture that does not move ie freeze frame. Back in the day of LCD it was common fault . As far as i know there is no cure for it. having two plasma and not had a LED/LCD for years now . ( about 3 a tleast now
Just what I was thinking Dom.Well won't it just burn all over again?
Actually I understand the 2018 models were much more susceptible to screen burn but later models are much improved. Better heat dissipation and software panel management. Let’s hope so…. 🤞Just what I was thinking Dom.
You pay £200 for a 'repair'.....then wait till you need another 'repair'?
I appreciate it's cheaper than a new TV, but what a poor state of affairs.
(I'm assuming the replacement panels are no less susceptible to the burn).
Warranty doesn't cover screen burn.2 years old and a burn out ! after spending loadsa money on a new TV 2 years and need to spend money on it what about warranty did you get a 3 year one / well to me a TV should last at least 5 years .
Yes, I think the replacements are newer panels as you can’t get the older ones anymore. I suppose you would also have to be more careful the way you use it. If not you could find yourself paying £200 again.Just what I was thinking Dom.

If I can maybe I will stump up and buy a Samsung QLED.Just what I was thinking Dom.
