    Abstract: An electronic device may be provided with a display. A content generator may generate frames of image data to be displayed on the display. The display may have an array of pixels that emit light to display images. The pixels may contain light-emitting devices such as organic light-emitting diodes, quantum dot light-emitting diodes, and light-emitting diodes formed from discrete semiconductor dies. As a result of aging, the light producing capabilities of the light-emitting devices may degrade over time. The electronic device may have a temperature sensor that gathers temperature measurements and an ambient light sensor. A pixel luminance degradation compensator may apply compensation factors to uncorrected pixel luminance values associated with the frames of image data to produce corresponding corrected pixel luminance values for the display. The compensation factors may be based on aging history information such as pixel luminance history, ambient light exposure, and temperature measurements.

    Abstract: An organic light-emitting diode display may have an array of pixels. The pixels may each have an organic light-emitting diode with a respective anode and may be formed from thin-film transistor circuitry formed on a substrate. A mesh-shaped path may be used to distribute a power supply voltage to the thin-film circuitry. The mesh-shaped path may have intersecting horizontally extending lines and vertically extending lines. The horizontally extending lines may be zigzag metal lines that do not overlap the anodes. The vertically extending lines may be straight vertical metal lines that overlap the anodes. The pixels may include pixels of different colors. Angularly dependent shifts in display color may be minimized by ensuring that the anodes of the differently colored pixels overlap the vertically extending lines by similar amounts.
