Exact Windows Central and Tom's Hardware reviews describe three years, while the EU fiche separately guarantees three years. These differing terms do not override the current exact US warranty scalar. Premium Panel Exchange applies during applicable limited hardware warranty. No OLED burn-in coverage or duration is inferred.15Reviewwindowscentral.com/accessories/monitors/dell-32-plus-4k-qd-oled-monitor-s3225qc-reviewRead 8 October 2026July 5, 2025 exact-model US review describes three-year warranty including potential burn-in. Current selected US C6KWR maker table instead explicitly states one-year limited hardware warranty and Advanced Exchange, which controls the scalar. Reviewed three-year burn-in statement is preserved as a conflicting contract/coverage description, not silently inherited as the current configuration's burn-in duration.
