Anyone else have this on their phone? Really only visible when there's a dark image on the screen. It started a few months ago and doesn't appear to be getting worse, but it's there. My phone is out of warranty, not that this really effects it's usability. Anyone?
 
That's not good. =/

It's very, very faint. Unless I'm using something that has a very dark background near the edges of the display, like Spotify, it's not even noticeable. But I've heard this happens to LCD screens somewhat frequently. Not sure. I was just curious if anyone else had experienced this. It's so minor I don't think it would even hurt the resale value of the phone to be honest.

Have contacted Apple and asked them for options and or what you're options are?
 
I have a 5s and 6 you can see the line when the screen is pop up on the vibration button side . You might want to check is it the same problem as mine
 
Because of the screen warp it causes the distortion on the display . It happened on both my iPhone and always on the vibration button side.
For one of the phone is because of the battery bloated .

I looked it up. I have no bulging or anything on my phone, so I don't think it's that.
 
I'd still get it looked at. A battery can swell but not enough to completely show outside damage. When you press on the screen anywhere, does it distort?

Again, we need a photo here.
