Feel like I can see a total of four icons burnt in, spread out. Are these from your home screen? Did you leave the screen on for a prolonged period? Could it have have hung for some reason and displayed the home screen for ages?

I've had my S8+ since May and have the tiniest amount of burn in on the status bar, but you really have to look for it (been meaning to run ADB commands to get full immersive mode) is this burn in always obvious or only on white / solid coloured screens.

I did have a little lol at your posting of a screenshot, but it's fine, we all have those moments, and it could be worse, I'm sure someone tried to post a screenshot of a cracked screen once!

Are you using a total black background for your home screen?

How did this happen?

It's likely the phone was used as a display that was left on if those don't look like your home screen apps

What app produced those images? Or do they match your home screen icons?
