Google is Investigating a Possible 'Burn In' Problem on the Pixel 2 XL's Screen
Google seems to be hitting a snag with the Pixel 2 XL's screen.
People using review models of the Pixel 2 XL have reported issues with screen burn-in, in which images that regularly appear on the screen, like the home button, navigation bar or the clock, remain slightly visible when they shouldn't be. It's a relatively common issue for devices with organic LED screens (such as TVs) after a few months or even years of usage, but according to reviewers who were affected, it started occurring with Pixel XL's just a few days after using the device.
The Alphabet Inc. ( (GOOGL) - Get Report ) unit confirmed to TheStreet that it's aware of the reports and is looking into the matter. A Google spokesperson declined to comment on the scale of the potential problem, however.
