Hi there RichardAdjei,
We can provide some guidance. What you're referring to is known as image persistence, and it's normal for devices using OLED technology.
With extended long-term use, OLED displays can also show slight visual changes. This is also expected behavior and can include “image persistence” or “burn-in,” where the display shows a faint remnant of an image even after a new image appears on the screen. This can occur in more extreme cases such as when the same high contrast image is continuously displayed for prolonged periods of time.

Take care.
