Burn-in & uniformity

Look for persistent outlines, uneven patches and pixels that stand out. Change colors slowly.

Solid-color inspection

Click or tap an empty part of the test surface to show hidden controls. Esc exits fullscreen.

How to check

  1. Use a comfortable brightness and wipe dust off the panel. Enter fullscreen for the widest view.
  2. Inspect each solid color for several seconds. Gray is useful for faint retained shapes; black is useful in a dim room.
  3. If you notice a mark, change the pattern and check whether it remains in the same physical area.

Know the limits

This is a visual inspection, not a diagnosis. Temporary image retention and permanent burn-in can look similar; one brief test cannot distinguish them reliably.

Ambient light, reflections, panel viewing angles and normal brightness variation affect what you see. LCD glow is not automatically burn-in.

Do not leave bright static patterns running for extended periods. This tool does not run a pixel-repair or burn-in-removal cycle.

A useful question

Will the test fix burn-in?

No. These patterns only make visual inspection easier. Follow the display manufacturer’s guidance if an artifact persists during normal use.
