Does everyone's phone have that backlight bleeding at the top of the screen? Or is it a defect?

Mine isn't like that at all. But I have an AMOLED from April 2, 2010. Got it on launch day April 29th.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App

Should I get this one replaced as well? I don't want to go through the trouble of getting another one if all of the phones are going to have it.

It's actually not as bad as it looks in that picture. Still annoying nonetheless.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App

That's really typical of a lot of LCD screens.

yeah all the slcd are going to have it to some extent...

Hmm. I don't have that. I must have an AMOLED.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App

I don't have it at all... I'm fairly sure I have an AMOLED as well.

Unhappy with screen quality?

Does the lack of resolution bother anyone else? Dont get me wrong, the GS phones have amazing screens and beautiful colors, and was happy to move to the E4GT from the Evo, but the jaggies are killing me!
I've viewed two other phones, and all three have been about the same. It is definitely something that most people wouldn't complain about but i know there's got to be others that share my disdain.
Edge of icons, subtle shading, and the very noticeable grid pattern on a mid-gray screen are what catch my eye.
This wasn't meant to be a rant, just wanted to see if anyone else notices what seems to have been corners cut by stretching this screen over the international version.
Comments, hate mail, patches/fixes are all welcome. lol

At first I didn't like it (coming from the photon and evo3d) but now Im used to it. I really don't have a problem with it anymore. I do like the size.

You can get an app to change your LCD density if you want.

Changing the density doesn't fix it, may make it less apparent, but its still there.
Is there a technical reason the pixel grid is so noticeable?

I don't see any pixelation some people are complaining about. Most people zoom in to make images bigger on these phones anyways but I don't have to do that with this phone because of it's screen size.

[Q]Verizon rainbow wallpaper vs GSM rainbow wallpaper?

Notice a difference between the two? Can anyone post up the Verizon version? If you look at the two together, the GSM version doesn't pop as much.

thank you. I just wanna know. Have you guys noticed that?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus

Do you actually have the wallpaper or are you just looking at a picture of the screen?

the (stock) pictures of the Z model are photos-hoped/rendered.
wait until you see a hands-on with the device with that wallpaper. and than see if there is indeed a difference.
though i doubt there is.

Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda premium

I noticed the same thing. I think maybe the ones in the ads were enhanced. Either way I have seen the wallpaper before. Looks like they a couple of these and modified them: www hongkiat com/blog/30-impressive-colour-spectrum-and-rainbow-wallpapers/

Anyone feel like???

Anyone feel like that the Galaxy 3 should have came out with a 5.0" screen instead of 4.8"? I feel like that a 4.8" screen is still too small to do things like access office documents or remotely connect to a PC from our GS3. Can anyone else think about what the GS3 should have came with in terms of specs?
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium

I'm content with 4.8"
You might want to look into the Galaxy Note if u need something bigger
Sent From My Sprint Galaxy S3

5.0" is definitely too big. Even 4.8" is too big for my thumb to easily reach the top left of the screen. I'd recommend getting a Galaxy Note if you want something bigger.

The only problem is that there is no galaxy note for sprint.

GALAXY note 2 being announced the 16th

go buy a tablet!

I really wanted the note but did not like the UI. The Note is not just a bigger phone, it is a whole different beast.
I would have liked a bigger screen then 4.8.

The GS3 is the biggest phone I'll ever convince myself to own.

no.

I started with the HTC hero and thought the size was good, then I got the Epic which had a 4" screen. Now I thought 4" was big and told myself I don't need any bigger, then epic touch comes out with 4.5" screen, and I grew really fond of it. Now this device comes out with 4.8" and I think this is definitely the largest I'm going.
The note is freaking huge and yes, I've played with it. The screen is nice, but when you're using the phone up to your head, when it's really big, it starts looking, well, stupid.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using Tapatalk 2

Definitely not; I already think 4.8" is a bit too large. The kind of tasks you want to do would be far better suited for the Nexus 7.

4.8 is actually pretty big
but it doesnt FEEL big lol.
that note 2 sounds pretty good. hopefully it's a couple feet in diagonal (sarcasm)

Yeah, me too.....If there were a way to have a bigger screen but a smaller phone that would be perfect, but I don't think I'd want to hold anything bigger.

Every one who sees my phone always comments how big the screen is. If the screen was any bigger it wouldn't appeal to the masses.

Eh, all the AMOLED tablets pretty much suck since they're stuffed with Touchwiz (tablet version sucks) which slow them down incredibly.
And the difference between AMOLED and LCD is really miniscule, so unless you care about blacks being a little bit deeper, it doesn't matter.
If you don't believe me, go to a store and try the Nexus 7 - - Once you actually see the screen, you'll be able to make a clear decision.

Best features

I am upgrading in one month and trying to see what people love about their GALAXY Note II. I see too many "we don't have this or that." Here i would like to see what the defining features (beside the S-Pen) that would cause someone to choose this device over another.
So please, tell me why you bought the device and why you love it! Please keep it clean and fun for all!

The we don't have this or that threads are people just being nitpicky #FirstWorldPains?
It's an amazing device.... the screen is beautiful 5.55" of a NONPENTILE Super AMOLED, stellar battery life. The quad core exynos CPU and jelly bean makes the user experience super fluid. People are also saying that the phone is too big but personally that's why I like it so much - it makes my old iPhone4S look like a toy.

After 8 hours of ownership, screen size is my fav feature so far.

Pixel density is lower but gs3 is pentile I believe. This has some hybrid pixel arrangement. Though, I never saw a gs3.

Yes the arrangement is PenTile, so in theory it should look similar. But I was just wondering if it also appeared the same in person

Thought it would be the screen, but it is actually the battery life.

Samsung Galaxy Note II

Honestly I think I'm still in partial shock that I'm walking around with a Quad Core in my pocket. There's something ridiculous about that... also the display and once Sprint LTE kicks in in SF, I'm going to be lording it over my colleagues.

Yes i can't wait for LTE down here in Riverside. Supposedly it's going active in April/May. Do you know if SF is part of LAs release schedule?

Battery life, screen and the looks from everyone when they compare their iphone to this beast
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda app-developers app

Best feature this phone has is Android. Hands Down.
Slap a giant screen on an iPhone and it still is tied to iOS. Can't fix that one.
But on the serious side, the best feature to me, is the marriage of a Large screen and the extra sensitive S Pen. The large screen is great, but anyone can do a large screen. And an S Pen is great too, but it would be crap on a screen any smaller than 5" or so. Can you even imagine trying to use an S Pen on a screen the size of iPhone?
Everything else that Sammy did to make the S Pen and Screen marriage work well is important too, as without all the other pieces, this phone would leave something to complain about.

Awesome screen, awesome battery, so much horsepower and gps that really works (coming from ET4G that never locked)...
This is the best phone I've owned.

No idea unfortunately... I think SF is going to be a slow deployment though. Doubt Sprint will risk burdening a popular city with a crappy upgrade.
