Well that would be the point of such a thread. I saw some tech YouTuber complaining on Twitter about burn-in on a 1 year old LG phone that belonged to his dad. Also, have you seen Gizmoslip's burn-in video where he shows what happened to his friend's Note 8 after 1.5 years? Pretty scary stuff...

We really need a thread for discussing burn-in. Let's get this thread back on topic lol.

Oh yeah maybe you would understand if you were a college freahman on the opposite end of the planet from your friends and family. LMAO.

Yup. Less than a year old. Rest of phone works perfectly like it came out of the box. I clock in 3-8 hours SoT per day. When the burn-in initially showed up last fall, I was spending up to 4 hours a day on Whatsapp chatting with family.

Full brightness. I also frequently use my phone outdoors where Samsung's high brightness mode automatically turns on. I should NOT have to decrease brightness on a premium gadget. I bought an OLED phone specifically for the screen that looks amazing and vibrant whether I am in sunlight or...

Nope. Was using my phone just as normal. I know what NOT to do with OLED, lol. Still happened.

I have NASTY burn-in from normal Whatsapp usage...

Nope but given that I have family and friends back in Serbia who use it as their main way of texting I have it. One of my friends here in the US got it simply so that he can text me for free when I am not in the US. Whatsapp is literally my main way of chatting with my parents. Only problem is...

What I use on a regular basis! Main phone: Galaxy S8 (pretty much all daily use) Secondary: Galaxy A6+ (for use during visits to Europe, for receiving SMS and and sending/receiving Viber messages from my Serbian phone number, testing stuff in Android 10 and weaker hardware) Thermal camera...

I have an Otterbox defender on my S8. Most of my very rare accidental drops have been from incidents where my wrist just goes limp for a second causing me to drop the phone. No damage whatsoever. Meanwhile earlier this year my dad somehow accidentally cracked the corner on his new S10e while it...

Have you been super frequently bringing the battery to very low percentages (below 10%) or fully emptying? It is OK to do it on ocassion or when you cannot get to charge your phone, but doing it habitually will nuke your battery quickly. How many cycles do you have?

I hate adaptive brightness. I like my screens at full brightness as it looks alot nicer (part of the reason I like AMOLED is the brightness/glow it gives off) and doesn't give me the weird feel that low brightness levels (and rapidly adapting levels) give me as AMOLED uses low frequency PWM...

Took this picture a few days ago carefully with my spare Galaxy A6+. The screen is quite burnt in and is supposed to be plain gray. There is no Samsung store anywhere near where I live in New Mexico, so I'm kinda stuck with this. The phone is still perfectly usable. The first burn-in that...

*edit meant 512GB SSD

Exactly my situation plus the imprints from the keyboard (including hexagons from my previous SwiftKey background) and Whatsapp UI. The navbar isn't pink at all as it is basically set up as a black/green battery indicator.
