iPhone 15 Pro Max Screen Burn-In Woes: Users Complain About Ghosting Images

iPhone 15 Pro Max users have started facing issues and this is a big problem. Reports say that the new iPhone 15 Pro Max screens are burning which leaves an image imprint on the display after being taken off the screen.

There seems to be a problem with the OLED display and people have noticed that the screen ghosting effect on the iPhone 15 Pro Max is still visible on the previous image screen. Reddit is full of complaints from people who bought the iPhone 15 Pro Max and by the looks of it, this issue is no different and worryingly enough, this is the first iPhone 15 Pro Max model to face the screen burn issue. Screen burn mostly results from the image being exposed on the screen for too long. It seems that apps like Google Maps are the main culprits for the after-effect of this issue.

The timing of the new issue with the iPhone 15 Pro Max comes just days after many people reported their iPhones overheating, for which Apple also rolled out a new iOS 17 update to control the device's thermal management. It's unlikely that a software update could have caused the screen malfunction, and many are saying that Apple may have a major manufacturing defect on its hands if the problem persists. The new iPhone 15 series has been out in the market for barely a month and the company has already faced many issues from users.

And if Apple concludes that this is a hardware issue, all affected iPhone 15 Pro Max models should be replaced as they are all covered by the 1-year warranty that the company offers to iPhone buyers. We hope to hear more from Apple about this situation in the coming days which should be a relief for iPhone users.
