Some guy reported it (see pictures). Anyone else worried about this? Do you use yours at max brightness? Wonder how long it'll take until it burns in at the bottom...

UPDATE: Less than a year later, an S8 from a friend had screen burn-in of the keyboard and notification bar and web broswer bar. If you use high brightness often, expect burn-in... it's guaranteed. Just warning you all as a precaution, better to be safe than sorry, turn off the screen after you use it for a long time, turn down the brightness, don't use white themes.
