Orange transparent keyboard in the background?

[AC Question]

I just bought a Galaxy S6 for Boost on Ebay. Everything seems well but I see in white screens an orange keyboard in the background. It's not super noticable but annoying at the same time. Is my phone defective?

Not defective, you have what they call a screen burn in image. Whoever owned the phone before you must have been a heavy texter or fell asleep with the screen on all night.

While screen burn in is not uncommon to see, and a lot of phones can get this, it doesn't mean you should live with it if it's already bothering you. Contact the seller for remedial action... either a return, or a "substantial" discount (if you can live with it). If the seller didn't mention the screen burn-in in the listing, you have rights for a full refund if the item wasn't "as described".

Personally, it would bother me and I wouldn't hesitate to return it.
