3 OLED settings you should've enabled already

Key Points:
- OLED TVs, while offering excellent picture quality, remain susceptible to burn-in, especially when static content is displayed for long periods, causing permanent ghost images due to uneven pixel wear.
- To mitigate burn-in risk, users should enable Pixel Shift or Screen Shift, a feature that subtly moves the image to prevent static elements from stressing the same pixels continuously.
- Activating Logo Luminance Adjustment or Static Brightness Limiter dims bright static logos and graphics, reducing pixel stress without compromising overall image quality.
- Enabling Automatic Pixel Refresher or Panel Refresh allows the TV to perform maintenance cycles that recalibrate pixels and even out wear, typically running during standby or after extensive use.
- These protective settings may not be enabled by default, so users should check their TV's picture or care settings menus to activate them and safeguard their OLED screens.
