I would need to see a photo, but it's not possible to burn in a screen in one day.
iPhone 15 runs an OLED screen.
OLED's CAN get burn in, but it generally takes running a device 24x7 for months.
Apple statement here:
It tends to fade a little over time and updates to the current battery percentage and it happens when I enter control center
Or close the status bar over a dark background
Is this normal No
My brand new iPhone 15 appears to have a burn in issue Call AppleCare or bring it back to the store
UPDATE: Got the phone exchanged for a new one!
How's the new one?
It has the same problem, I’m starting to think it’s my eyes
Not normal.There was an issue with some 15 models having image retention that looked like burn-in but it turned out to be a software issue. If you have the latest update and still seeing burn in I would go to apple for a return / exchange.
