it's a problem with the screen.
It's called 'screen burning or image ghosting'
When a static image is displayed on a screen for too long, the image will become a ghost and will show on the screen, no matter what you are viewing.
It's more common in oled screens than LCD.
Since you said you just bought it, I'll advise you to return it.

[Q] Screen flickering

First of all, I'm new to Android phones and this forum I'm not sure if this is the right place to post, if not, let me know.
I've purchased a Cubot One, knowing what I can expect and it really works fluently, but it comes with an issue, annoying sometimes.
Left half of the screen flickers (in a very exact way, just left half), depending on what it's showing. For example, desktop 1 shows the wallpaper and icons flickering, but if you go to desktop 2 that effect disappears. It never happens in an open app, except if it's showing a bitmap or icon, and not always. If you're in the block screen it never happens. If you're using, let's say, Whatsapp app the screen is perfect, and in most of apps.
I make a complain to the seller and waiting for their diasnogtic, but I thing it could be a software issue, so I'm writing here. Could anybody make any suggestion?
Thanks

Spots on screen when looking at something black

I've been using my phone in a dark room without lights for some evenings, and I noticed, that when a total black image is givin, like the YouTube app loading a video some weird darker/lighter spots are visible, this is also visible when displaying a black image.
I'll try to make a picture as soon as possible, but does anybody know what it could be? Its like someone pressed the screen really hard, but nobody ever did.
The spots are not visible at any other image, only on black image.

I have similar problem with my Xperia Z. When the screen gets completely black on max brightness I see a small dark gray spot...
So I can say it's screen issue due much hard presses on the screen

Same here its most probably due to some bigger push you didnt notice or overheating or even it could be manufacturer line issue unfortunately :/

Whatsapp convo "stuck" underneath the display

I know the title sounds crazy, so let me explain.
I've had this issue for quite a long time now but never gotten into it.
Basically, when I open a white image or whatever light colored app/background, I can recognize a Whatsapp conversation in transparency, almost like it's stuck underneath the display.
So I tried opening the recovery to clear cache and I noticed the same exact thing when the recovery was loading (light blue background).
You can find a picture below. The top portion is my phone's display while the bottom is a screenshot found on Google (cause I needed the old layout for Whatsapp chats).
By the way, the phone I'm having trouble with is a Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge updated to Android 7.0 (the update didn't fix the issue).
Thanks to everyone in advance
This is known as image retention or burn-in. It is a characteristic of OLED/AMOLED displays when the same images are held at high brightness/intensities for long periods of time. There are apps/tools/methods which claim to reduce, remove or in some way fix the problem but please do your research as there is a good chance they can make the problem worse or introduce new problems. I have not investigated further other than methods of prevention. Also, organic light emitting diodes/pixels have a given lifespan. The screen will lose brightness and color accuracy over time. Blue diodes will fade first, then green, then red.

Screen overlay on Samsung Galaxy Note 8.

For the last two days I noticed that I have another screen under my main screen. I dont know how to explain, but its almost like my main screen is see through and I see another layer under it. Everytime I browse or open anything with white screen you can clearly see another layer. Its appears to be large bar on the left side of the screen and 3 buttons on the bottom of the screen (mic, record and idk the third one) I dont know how to post screenshots here, I took couple and would like to post them along with my post, but Im newbie here and cant seem to find attach button anywhere
My phone is Unlocked Galaxy note 8 SM-N950U1
Solution. Update! Found problem
It turns out its my google navigation burned into the screen. I downloaded Burn Test app and looked at icons closer and realized its from Google Maps wilhich I use all day as I am a truck driver. Image of the map just burnt in. Looks like there is no fix for that other than replacing device
