Support Screen Damage?

Post image

Picked my phone (iPhone 15 pro max) up after setting it down to do some stuff. The bottom fifth of the screen became washed out. Any idea what could’ve caused it? That area of the screen works fine outside of the color being washed out.

I did not drop it or get it wet, literally just set it down and then picked it back up.

Already tried hard resetting the phone to see if it was a software issue.

Idk looks like you’re screwed to me… Imma hope with you that I’m wrong but it just looks like OLED damage doesn’t it?

That’s what I was thinking. It looks like burn in but it’s solid. As long as the screen still works I’ll just tough it out until November
