There is a clear difference in durability between LCD and OLED. Here is a detailed comparison and analysis:

 

Lifespan and stability:

OLED screen: OLED screen has a relatively short service life, and its lifespan is mainly affected by the gradual degradation of organic materials. According to the information in reference article 3, the general lifespan of an OLED screen is about 5 years, but this is also affected by various factors such as the user's daily usage time and screen brightness. In addition, OLED screens are prone to screen burn-in when displaying static images, which is also an important factor affecting their durability.

LCD screen: LCD screens have a relatively long life, and their stability and durability are higher than OLED screens. The service life of traditional LCD screens is between 40,000 and 60,000 hours, which far exceeds the replacement cycle of ordinary users. The LCD screen does not have the problem of screen burn-in, and its backlight light-emitting principle makes it more stable and durable.

Impact resistance and damage resistance:

OLED screen: Because OLED screens use organic materials, their impact resistance and damage resistance are relatively weak. OLED screens are more likely to be damaged or cracked when impacted by external forces.

LCD screen: LCD screen performs better in terms of impact resistance and damage resistance. Due to its structural characteristics, the LCD screen can maintain good integrity when impacted by external forces and is not prone to damage or cracking.

Energy consumption and heat generation:

OLED screen: OLED screen can greatly reduce energy consumption when displaying black or dark images, because only the pixels that need to be displayed will emit light. However, due to the self-luminous nature of OLED screens, they may generate higher heat when used at high brightness, which may affect their durability.

LCD screen: LCD screens require backlight modules to illuminate pixels, so they consume more energy when displaying bright-color images. However, LCD screens generate relatively little heat, which helps maintain their stability and durability.

To sum up, LCD screens have advantages over OLED screens in terms of durability. LCD screens have longer service life, higher stability and durability, and are less prone to screen burn-in. In addition, LCD screens also perform better in terms of impact resistance and damage resistance. However, it should be noted that although OLED screens are slightly inferior in terms of durability, they have advantages such as better color performance and faster response speed, so the choice of screen needs to be weighed based on personal needs and preferences.
