I have a Manjaro CE from the first batch shipped out that has the same problem that started across the top of the screen from both corners and has been growing slowly worse over the last 4-5 months. Never dropped, gotten wet, cleaned with alcohol, or otherwise abused. I think the problem started when Phosh was having some thermal management issues about that same time. Those problems seem to have been fixed, my phone does not seem to get nearly as hot for the last few months but the defect has continued to grow all the way around the edges now. I think my best strategy is to buy a new screen now (the price is very reasonable and while they are available), but I will wait to actually replace it until my screen it worse and the thermal management is handled more reliably across all the distros. And in the meantime make sure to check on the thermal limits for whichever distro I'm trying out at the moment.
