As you can see the icons of notification panel have left some impressions. It goes away in about 5-10 seconds. Don't know what is causing it.

Also there is some vertical pattern on the display.

Should I got for a replacement????

What is article talks about is burn in but we are facing image retention which is different.
This is what I found on reddit:
----------------------------
"What you are seeing IS image retention, that is exactly what image retention is... nothing more, nothing less.
There is huge misinformation around the internet about image retention and burn-in and how they are linked.
THEY ARE NOT LINKED.
When you have a bright static image on screen for a few minutes and then quickly switch to another static image (normally all of one colour) you WILL see the previous image being retained - therefore- image retention
It is only happening because the all one colour static image is not rotating its pixels, so cannot instantly “wash away” the previous image, so the previous image will hang around for a fair few seconds, even minutes....
...until you switch to a dynamic moving image again, where by the image retention is instantly dismissed.
IT IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT.
If you are using a games console you are going to see it often under normal usage.
For example, leave the PS4 sitting on the dashboard for a few minutes, then quickly going to something like the store or friends list... while waiting for them to load, and the screen is largely one static colour... you will noticed the main dashboard “squares” being retained.
Another example - If using the TVs in built YouTube app, you stay browsing for a few minutes, and then quickly go to the mostly grey search page, you will see the grid of thumbnails.
Etc etc.
NONE OF THIS IS RELATED TO BURN IN.
Burn In is a different, and arguably wrongly labelled phenomenon. What Burn In is, is actually accelerated pixel wear."
----------------------------

The above I found on a reddit thread. But even then we should not get a display like this.

Another ROG Phone 3 owner told me that he is not facing this issue. His device is fine.

Yes that is the problem. In this forum too no mods seem to help. Flipkart guys are just useless. The seller does not even have replacement available. All you can get is refund and that can also be rejected.

Yes! But black crush can be fixed with software update. And about that image retention problem I don't know.
