Will MicroLED displays make it to phones in the near future?

Samsung decided to make an OLED style emissive display tech a while ago that uses non-organic materials instead of the organic materials used in OLED. They already put out a crazy expensive luxury modular MicroLED TV. The one thing I like about MicroLED is that it is allegedly immune to burn-in, which would be a life saver for me (typing this a on nearly 3 month old S8 with NAAASTY WhatsApp burn-in from normal messaging addiction). Do you think we will have MicroLED flagship or even midrange phones any time soon? If Samsung puts out a decently powerful MicroLED phone that isn't atrociously expensive or too fragile, I would highly consider buying it after waiting for the price to naturally fall a little.
 
We'll probably see MicroLED screens in flagship phones - by 2024 or 2025.

By then I might even have enough money to buy such a device without any issue or long waits for price drops, etc... I'm not sure though whether MicroLED is less power efficient than OLED or not, but at this point the immunity to burn-in is the main thing I am looking forward to and that will be a HUGE Leap for Samsung.
