So, I’m delighted with the super-sharp OLED screen on the iPhone XS Max.
A few times a year though, I find myself presenting an 8-hour seminar from my phone using the PowerPoint app and a projector. The static slides layouts are all the same and are in the company template of bright and contrasting orange and blues with clear edges.
Question is: should I be concerned about image retention on an OLED display from showing these slides over the course of a whole day several times a year? (I can set the brightness down to the lowest setting as I don’t need to look at the phone when presenting, as I hear burn-in is more of an issue at higher brightness settings).
Extra info: PowerPoint doesn’t continue to operate normally if I try to lock the phone. The screen has to stay on essentially. I use the free version so there is no ‘presenter view’ option (that could, for example, show notes instead of the current slide). I can (and do) turn the brightness right down. I like using my phone for the presentation as I can control it from my Apple Watch and there’s so much less to carry, so it’s a lot more convenient than using an iPad.
