Screen burn-in, or image persistence, refers to the phenomenon where faint remnants of previously displayed content linger on the screen. This issue has historically affected OLED panels and was particularly noticeable on display televisions, where channel logos would become “burned” into the display due to continuous and static on-screen presence.
In recent years, technological advancements and improvements in hardware and software have mitigated the prevalence of screen burn-in, and it has primarily been a concern when a static image is displayed on an OLED screen for extended periods. Nevertheless, some iPhone 15 Pro Max users have reported experiencing burn-in issues, with ghostly remnants of text and icons on their screens.
