I been using oled for years on phones/laptops… never noticed any burn in. The issue seems like a chronically online nitpicking more than anything that a real user will encounter.
For how long do you use your phones? If you have an OLED android phone you’ll definitely get burn in where the status/notification bar is. If you get a new phone every 2 years you won’t notice it. I’ve got it after around 4 years.
I’ve got a Samsung Note 9 from Sept 2018 (I checked the serial number) with an AMOLED screen and no burn in.
I have turned off the always on display and spend a fairly normal amount of time on it. Not sure if I’m just lucky.
What are you talking about? My phone has an average screen on time of 7 hours a day and the status bar is literally a permanently static element. So are the three software buttons for home back and app switch. But they still don’t burn in
What do you do in your life that your phone screen is for 7 hours straight? I guess you’re just imagining things.
Also, while I don’t know which phone you have, stock Android changes the status bar constantly. For example, you scroll your Insta feed and it’s light grey with dark grey icons. You tap on a video and now it’s black with light grey icons. Then you switch to Maps and now it’s semi-transparent and each pixel changes every time you move the map around.
Button bar on the bottom also changes non stop together with app theme. And button icons change all the time. Android doesn’t have a single static element on the screen. And you NEVER keep screen on for 7 hours straight. It is completely different to office or industrial work. Heck, even my IPS gets a temporary burn-in (ghosting) all the bloody time!
You can check LTT video about LG TV Linus was using for work. He was so happy about it at first. One year later - it’s a total burnt garbage.

I was under the impression that this was only really an issue when they first introduced OLED. And doesn’t really affect the current gen
it can affect current Gen, it’s just way harder to the point it doesn’t really matter.
My nexus one had an OLED display iirc, thing had huge volumes of burnin after 12 months.
I’ve not seen burnin on any of my subsequent devices, my S10+ is still going strong since 2019. Shame about the Samsung soc.

Got an s9. It’s got some globe from its previous owner and two bars from me. It’s not a big deal really.
I have burn in on my s8+
I have a halo around my front camera, but no status bar burn in
You don’t use your phone with static elements for as long as you use your monitor.
