Why do backlight LEDs burn out and go blue?

If it takes oLED more than 100 years to get to the stage where eti stops hating them, I'd say that's beyond the entire future as far as we're concerned :)

The trouble is, as you say, we can't predict it. Electric cars stayed shit for maybe 95 of those years and it's only in the last few that they've become nearly a replacement for petrol/diesel. Still got a bit of a hurdle to leap, but maybe we'll end up changing to suit the technology instead. OTOH, LEDs have improved massively over a decade or so, IoT gone off like a rocket, etc.

That's a very close minded statement. Technology improves all the time and the day might come when OLED displays become highly reliable and better performance than LEDs. You just don't know what will happen. I'm pretty sure some electric car owners, said the same thing about EVs in the past.

What do you expect? Have you ever seen eti express an opinion that wasn't set on a 'black/white' scale?  :)

* This is, in fact, true.

They’ve had plenty long enough to improve - decades. They’re #%#% end of. The industry is moving away from OLED, I can’t recall what to, but this is a tacit admission of how crap they are in one terrible flaw where the colours burn in and one colour dies faster than the others. Good riddance.

LOL, LG OLED TV in most cases last longer than LG LCD with failing backlight. Burn-in in most cases can be eliminated by running a compensation cycle for a few minutes. I'd say the most prominent downside is price rather than reliability.

Yes I knew that, but back then automobiles weren't yet mainstream, which wouldn't have happened so soon, had it not been for the massive improvements made to the internal combustion engine.
