Iphones be like

I'm guessing the joke here is that due to iPhones having text and icons in the same places on many screens this leads to more cases of Screen Burn-in. The image shows an iPhone displaying a white image that then highlights this fault with the phone and the title makes a joke comparing these always visible marks on the screen to the 'always-on' feature where the screen displays information even when the screen is 'off'.

Oh dear! Do they really get any burn-in? Is there a reason why Apple phones specifically would be susceptible to this? I've never heard of the issue on any phones, though.

As a sidenote: I do notice that the position of my Android AOD design shifts slightly every time, probably to prevent any burn-in.

Burn in is 100% a problem but apparently it was a bug causing the issue in the picture. An update was recently released and users with the problem are reporting that it’s completely gone.

Burn in should take an incredibly long time to develop and it almost never looks like it does in the photo. This YouTube playlist shows a guy experimenting with a switch oled and it takes a long time to see an issue.

afaik all OLED displays get this: the pixels degrade slightly over time… any always on display in a phone currently will be an OLED display, so the movement will certainly be to at least smooth out the pixel degradation
