To quote Rtings:
Even if your task bar is on 70% of the time, you're not going to see any significant burn-in.

Every Android phone I've owned with an OLED screen (including modern ones) have had burn-in (or rather, burn-out) problems, specifically with the status bar.
If I had a choice, I would still be using LCDs on phones.
Also on TVs with modern backlighting technology, LCDs are remarkably close to OLEDs in terms of picture quality.
Really? That's interesting, because I've never noticed burn-in on any of my OLED phones, even though I did use them for many years each. But then again, I've always wondered why seemingly nobody talks about burn-in on phones, while there is a lot of fuzz being made around it on computer monitors.
I actually just checked this on my Pixel 7 the other day. I have no noticeable burn in, not even in the status bar, except for the pill at the bottom of the screen. I've had the phone for almost three years.
