How To Check Burn In On Used OLED Phone With Always On Display

Inspect a used OLED phone for clock ghosts, notification icon retention, and burn-in caused by always-on display usage.

Best for: Buyers evaluating used OLED phones with heavy always-on display use.

Why this guide matters

Always-on display features raise common concerns about clock and icon wear. This guide explains how to use the homepage to inspect a used phone for those fixed-shape shadows before buying.

What to inspect on always-on display phones

Clocks, battery indicators, and notification icons often stay in predictable places, so they are the first areas to examine. A full-screen browser pattern gives you a neutral background that exposes those zones more clearly.

Gray and white are usually the best first-pass colors for this kind of inspection.

  • Inspect the clock area carefully.
  • Check corners for icon ghosts.
  • Compare results on more than one color.

Why the homepage is useful here

A browser-based test is fast enough to use during a meetup, trade-in, or quick resale check. It is much more informative than looking only at the lock screen.

If the same shapes stay visible later, you have stronger evidence that the wear is real.
