You can read all about it in the official Apple Forum. Link below :

https://discussions.apple.com/thread/403484...t=4605&tstart=0

300 pages of complaints. Majority with LG screens have image retention or burn in issues. They said it can happen anytime immediately or 2-3 months down the road and it will only get worse.

Google Macbook Pro Retina Display ghosting / burn in problems and you will know all about it.

Hope you got a good screen. I'm waiting for my Macbook Pro RD to arrive. Tension nya

Oops, my bad. I didn't realise yours is a MacBook Air. The image retention problems I mentioned is only for Retina Display MBP. So, you have nothing to worry about.
Enjoy your MacBook Air.

just got my rmbp.. replying this message on my rmbp..

i have a LG screen and I've tested it does have an IR issue.. not going to bother much right now as I doubt I ever going to leave my screen still for over 15 mins.. plus I don't do a lot of graphics processing..

I will only bother when it has dead pixels.. so far so good..none existed..

cheers
