What to inspect on an iPhone OLED panel
Pay extra attention to the dynamic areas around the status bar, gesture bar, and keyboard zones because they see repetitive static content.
Check black, white, gray, and primary colors so you can spot burn-in, tint, and dead pixel issues in a single session.
Best testing setup on iPhone
Raise brightness to a practical high level, disable true tone or night shift temporarily, and clean the glass before testing.
Run the homepage patterns in Safari full-screen view if possible so the panel fills more of the visible area.
How buyers and sellers can use this
Buyers can check panel condition before payment. Sellers can show clean screen results and reduce questions about hidden defects.
Keeping a few comparison photos also helps if you need to prove the screen condition later.
