2. Unlike LCD screens, AMOLED is subject to pixel "burn in", so in the long-term screen quality can degrade. It all depends how long you anticipate keeping your device for. If you plan to keep it for several yeares, this may be a consideration.

My Samsung Galaxy Note 2 is going on five years old, and hasn't had pixel burn in. You just need to set the screen to turn off if you are inactive for more than two or three minutes.
