If the image on your Samsung OLED monitor shifts, moves, or is cut off, you can disable the Pixel Shift function.

Note: If you are experiencing issues with your Samsung OLED monitor, please check for available software updates. Device screenshots and menus may vary depending on the device model and software version.

To reduce the possibility of screen burn-in or image retention, Samsung OLED monitors come with the Pixel Shift function. This function automatically refreshes and moves the pixels on your screen to prevent screen issues.

When Pixel Shift is used, the edges of the image may move outside of the screen borders and may not be visible. This is not a device defect. You can turn off Pixel Shift to keep the screen at the home position.

To prevent burn-in when viewing content with a lot of static images, it is recommended to turn on Pixel Shift.

1 Press the Home button on the remote, and then navigate to and select Menu.
2 Select Settings, and then select All Settings.
3 Select General & Privacy, and then select Panel Care.
4 Select Pixel Shift to turn it on.
