We’ve suddenly noticed rings on the display of our iPhone X - about 4 or 5 at a time, they are about 2mm and shimmer when you move the phone around in an angle, like the rings are made of tiny liquid droplets. They disappear when rubbing the screen in that area and slowly build up again, not in the same location. Always perfect circles.
The phone has not been exposed to water, liquid or high humidity.
I’ve attached an example, the circle is clearly visible straight up from the bookmark icon. Has anyone else experienced something similar?

Well there really nothing you can do to fix it short of replacing the display which would cost more than the phone is worth.. I'd say if it doesn't effect the performance or show on anything but white screens see if it gets worse then weigh your options

Yeah the rings don’t bother enough to be a real issue and the phone is being replaced soon anyway, I just found it interesting that I couldn’t find a single similar incident online.
