Nexus Screen

I cant tell if im being picky or not. I ordered the Gn from the Playstore, GSM version, I got the phone and loved it, but there were a few bad pixels. I called Samsung, they sent me another one. I got the second phone, this one has a red hue on the entire right side of the screen, enough to be annoying on brighter pages/apps. So, i called Samsung again, and they sent me another. The 3rd one... well it also has a part of the screen i don't like. It seems normal throughout, but the bottom right of the screen is brighter than the rest. Its noticeable, but especially when the keyboard is open, the left side is dark grey, the right side is light grey.
Am i being picky? Should I call Samsung for a 4th? Could it get any better? Should I just settle? No phone is perfect. I cant wait to root the damn thing and start flashing, and calling it my own.
I love the phone so much, other than the screen problem.
Thoughts/Comments please.....

call them again!!! also look for tiny black dots!
you can only see them when the screen is black and in a low light area.
so set a fully black photo in your gallery, open it and go to a low light area and look closely for any black dots you can see.

Honestly man you're gonna have problems whatever is going on with these screens. I have the same problem (not as bad) but I can notice slight color variation when the screen dims and when my keyboard is up. It is a known problem and I would just stick out to be quiet honest. I downloaded a pixel fixer (dont know the exact name of the app), but run the color fixer for 20 minutes multiple times and see if that does anything. When I notice a big difference I'm gonna get a new one, but honestly I wouldn't sweat it, even though that does sound pretty sh****.

Yeah, I can see mine is yellow on the left side of the screen now that I pretty much endulged in it. I'm probably gonna call tomorrow, but I don't want to have a damn phone that has the same exact problem.... ugh.

This won't fix the issue. My screen has a heavy yellow tint and tons of black dots. I've just said **** it cause I have a feeling the screen is just made this way..
I just stay stock color as opposed the messing with the colors, because mixing them makes the tints different colors or multi colored which really drives me nuts.
I also have on my left side a blueish tint and right side red tint. Probably defective but whatever, doesn't sound like you can get a better screen so..

Yeah thanks. Honestly, the first one with the dead pixels is the best quality so far.
Otherwise you guys love the phone? I do, and I hope the devs stick around for a good while. Even if other nexus devices emerge.

Oh dude I'm used to the tint already lol. Whatever man after a few days it will feel normal. Like I said try that pixel fixer app it is supposed to be good for fixing colors.
I will definitely be sticking with a Nexus line phone for sure. I am truly happy with it compared to all of the software/bloat ware phones like touchwiz and sense. It could always be worse man.

Backlight bleed anyone??

I had the same problem on my old N7 and went through 2 of those as well...
I've got some pretty bad backlight bleeding at the top/center of the screen. Literally looks like a dark grey to black gradient across the status bar. Other than that the screen looks pretty good. I say pretty good because I still think Asus could take a tip from Samsung in the display dept. But better color reproduction and contrast than the old N7 and love the 19x12 res. I'm gonna really enjoy reading on this thing once i get a good one. I just can't handle backlight bleed; it's a pet peeve of mine. It's going back to Best Buy tomorrow and I hope they have one more in stock for me. To anyone buying one, I would open it in store and check it out before leaving. My Best Buy is 30min and a load of traffic away.
Anyone else having this problem?

No backlight bleeding like my old nexus had. I haven't noticed any problems with mine , they really upped the quality with that $30 increase from last year

I hope for your sake it's a problem limited to the first batch. Looks like it's hit-and-miss like the old nexus because the new one I just got home with looks pretty good.

i think google's letting asus too much on the free rein. there's been better quality control on the previous nexuses, apart from asus. do try to chck out how sammy made the n10. that's what we can compare with n7 (both) and cry and curse asus.
seeing all that, I'm waiting for the next batch to come out, since I don't have enough reaources to replace a device once bougjt, so I just won't be taking any chances.

My original N7 has backlight bleeding along the left side, most noticeable on the bottom. Wife's has similar backlight bleed. Seems like some of this has nothing to do with batches. I got my original N7 in December, long past the first batches.
Just seems like they have some quality issues. Like the three org N7s that I went through before hitting on one that didn't have screen lift. I did finally get one, but it took some effort and returns on my part.
As for my newly purchased second generation N7, there are a few problems with it. Aside from very minor light bleed that is only visible in a black room, light bleed is not one of the issues.
I do hope that the second generation problems are worked out in subsequent batches, because the screen itself is a beautiful thing.

there is backlight bleed top center

Agree. I have my 32GB that's going back for different reasons. I'll just wait it out and watch everyone here, to see when these issues are minimized. Screen's amazing. Way better than anything else I've ever seen.

as I said, google's probably giving asus free rein too much, and asus is putting all that axe on our necks. They should be considerate about quality, because quality only is what matters. see all the good specs going down the drainage.

Mine only has it at the top like you, but its only noticeable during really dark scenes in a poorly lit area. Most IPS display will show some sort of light bleed. Speaking from experience, if its not one thing, then its another. Everything else is excellent. No dead pixels, popping sounds from the speaker, etc, etc. I swapped my N4 3 times before I got a unit that I thought was pretty good. And even then, its still not perfect since it too has some light bleed. If it really bothers you, then prepare yourself for what could possibly be a goose chase. :good:

Screen light blee.

Hi guys,
Do you have any light bleed on your screen? I have a few spots on the bottom edge of the screen.
Thank you,

Yea, That's Samsung for you. I was lucky not to have any on my device. And from the looks of it, it isn't too common on the Note 2014.
The Nexus 10 though. Wow. Everyone had it. It wasn't a question of if you have it or not, it was about how bad. Not to mention the blacks were blue.
I'd exchange it if I were you, no point in getting stuck with that.

Nope, no blee here.

I will exchange mine. Hopefully the new one will have no bleeD

Mine just came today and with my normal brightness setting there is only the slightest hint of bleed from one of the four LED spots on the bottom of the screen.
My panel seems perfect so far so it doesn't seem likely I will exchange it over this.
I'm pretty impressed, but I have to say the build quality is not up to par with my IPad and not what I would expect at this price. Samsung has a long way to go to produce really premium products.

I would like to see one iPad without a light bleed. So far a few I saw (including 2 which belong to my wife) had some light bleed as well. What is wrong with build quality of your unit? Mine, except for light bleed, is very good.

I think my tablet has very very slight bleed at the bottom of the screen near both capacitive buttons, I won't return it because it's barely noticeable BUT does this mean the whole screen has an issue and also could it deteriorate over more usage or anything like that.
Apologies if these are idiotic questions but this "screen bleed" is a completely new subject for me lol.

How was your exchanged tablet?

I think my light bleed is actually getting worse and I am thinking about exchanging it now that there is more stock available.
One of the spots on the bottom is about 1 cm, and while viewing movies it is a nuisance.
Does anyone have a perfect screen?

This was my worry, my screen has slight light bleed at the bottom nothing too noticeable but then again don't all LCD screens have some form of light bleed

Writting from my third Note 10.1 2014. The first one had a huge dust particle under the screen and bad bleeding. The second one had a bearable bleeding but at least 7 bad pixels (3 dead ones right in the middle of the screen and 4 stuck). This Note 10.1 has almost non- existent bleeding and just one little dust particle (invisible if you are not looking for it) but has yellow tint along the bottom edge (over the buttons) and at the bottom left corner, so when you are reading in portrait mode over white background it is impossible not to get distracted as you start one line with black over white and you finish it with black over yellow.
I truly love this device but I am getting tired of all of this. My third replacement is on its way, though I seriously doubt it is going to be a good one.
iiSo say we all!! from my SM- P600

Just noticed the blee today while watching netflix...does it actually get worse? I can live with it now but I would send it in for a replacement if it's gonna deteriorate over time

I'm on my third device and 2 of them have had lightbleed. I can't say for the first one though because the screen was dead on arrival. I think everyone should expect some lightbleed on any LCD screen. If your tablet is perfect in every other aspect other than a little screen bleeding then I wouldn't exchange it. There are too many things that can be messed up other than the screen such as S-pen detection, loose speaker grills, dead pixels, dead screens, faulty bluetooth, and the list goes on...

I have a 32bg black model and my GF has a white one, both bought at BB at about the same time. There is quite a lot of difference between the screens, mine has quite a bit of light bleed on the upper right and all across the bottom - you can see the individual leds - hers does not. However my screen is quite a bit brighter and much more "white," in side by side comparison hers looks a bit yellow. All of the screen settings are exactly the same. Last night we had them both on for 3+ hours of internet and point-and-click gaming, I had 80% power remaining while she had 56%, checking hers I noticed the brightness was at 100 while mine was around 25%. She says it needs to be that high to see the game and it does seem much darker/mudier than mine. Thinking these must have different panels because they look so different. So, light bleed or dim yellow battery eating screen, are these our options?

The pictures were taken with an iPhone 5S (flash off). The tablet's brightness was maxed and as you can see, the room was dark. Does this degree of backlight bleed warrant a return (mainly concerned of the tablet's longevity. Thoughts appreciated.

here it is. Same exact conditions. Thanks for your opinion, in advance.

The picture isnt very clear as its difficult to take a picture of properly but if the points I have highlighted are the only bit of screen light bleed you have then yeah its normal, I have pretty much identical bleed points too as do most people on here.

Thanks, I appreciate the prompt response.
And I'm inclined to agree with your observation. In particular, those are indeed the points of bleeding.
What do you make of the top corners being so bright, though? It's not like the points you've highlighted, but rather large areas -maybe this is where the light comes from?
In all honesty, I'm more concerned about future degradation than anything else. If the device is going to remain as is, I don't mind the current state of bleeding. But if this is an indication that the device will be noticeably worse in a few months down the road, then I'd like to take it back to the shop and exchange it.
Again, thanks for your time and opinion.
Much appreciated -and thanked.

No problem mate.
From what I understand Lightbleed comes from the points it's visable - it's just that for whatever reason the device doesn't block the light passing through hence the brighter areas along the bottom. And about degradation from what I have read it doesn't get worse or better just stays like that.
It depends on you if you want to give it back and keep trying to get a bleedless device but as some form of Lightbleed is common on LCD's it will be tough. I returned one due to high Lightbleed which was visable in a lit room and the brightness on low - that's bad Lightbleed and I couldn't accept that so I got the one I have now and the Lightbleed for me is more than acceptable. Plus the other problem is if your device is perfect apart from the bit of Lightbleed your next one could have other issues LOL.

Stuck / Dead Pixels

I have had over my phone over a month now , sharp panel vertical lines poor battery. However i have noticed today i now have 3 stuck pixels close to center of screen. I haven't had a phone with stuck pixels in over 6 years and i was wondering if anyone else has any ?

I've been lucky enough that my last 3 phones didn't have dead pixels. It's actually shocking to me. Generally, anything with a screen I have to return at least once.

well i used to be the same always purchasing screens with dead pixels and returning , talk about bad luck . This is the first screen in years ive seen dead / stuck pixels on and not to impressed , specially couple with vertical lines (Sharp panel).

My screen is all good here, but I have heard of many people exchanging this phone for various screen issues. First I've heard of dead pixels though!
These lines, what do they look like exactly? Just curious as I see that mentioned a lot..

What vertical lines are you referring to that bothers you? Can you take a picture of them?
BTW, I have none of those issues.

Looks like the touch sensor matrix. My iPad air 2, NVIDIA shield, 2015 Moto G, and 10 have these in horizontal and vertical if you look close enough. If they're the same lines, then this is normal and is needed to detect touch.

I see. I can kinda see them on mine. But I had to turn the screen off and get under a bright light. Never would have known. Are they more noticeable on yours??

for me they were very noticeable when i first powered the device on , viewing images or web pages with white background they would appear grey. They settled after a few days but still noticeable from time to time. Maybe i have just got used to them
Realized myself it was matrix and part of the tech , did consider rma at first but didn't want to risk the pink tint

Have a white pixel
So today morning I saw a dead white bright spot
May be dead pixel or even a broken pixel due to pressure
To be frank I didn't had it when I bought this month ago
I would like to say that I was playing gangster Vegas for around 3-4 hours yesterday night and when I woke up in the morning I saw it.
Have tried jscreen etc etc nothing worked. Applied pressure also that even didn't work
Any suggestions?

Green tint on greys

Is this normal? Greys have a green tint which is really noticeable on low brightness. Is this a limitation of AMOLED? But I don't recall this issue on my 6P or Note 4.

Hmm. Not having this issue...

Greys are really greenish. Though it happens only at some certain brightness level (a little more than the lowest).

The panel apparently is of low quality and has issues with greys. It's detailed in the anandtech.com review

Not noticing this on mine either.

I may have a slight tint on mine on greys, only on one half of the screen though. I'm colourblind so it could be green. I'm thinking it's more purple-ish though...

Yes what I had experienced from my last 3 phones I.e galaxy s2,s3,s4,s4 mini,s5 all of em which had amoled screen all have this thing. Its like if u seen u can't able to unseen. But its hard to notice. I think these displays are rather builded like this to work. Even my brother's new s7 has this thing.

On only part of the screen though? I know when tilting AMOLED displays that can happen but head on I don't know. (I've avoided AMOLED up until now because my last couple experiences with older ones was not so nice)

Guess that answers that, cheers!. (although mine might be right side of the screen, not bottom)

On my phone, the bottom part is also "greener" than the upper part. This is especially visible when brightness is set low (which I do when not outside, because it totally suffices).
Do more people have this problem?
Would returning the unit and getting a new OP3 make sense, or are these unevennesses typical??

I'm wondering if it's just an AMOLED thing... If it's really really bad then you may be better off RMA-ing it of course.

The findings on Anandtech have nothing to do with the quality and everything to do with the calibration, which is just software.

Hi, is it darker like the pics from my thread? I think I have the same issue on my display, just at the middle of the screen.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/help/dark-line-oled-screen-t3402293

One thought came to me: In the upper half of the OP3 are the parts which get warm when the phone "works". Perhaps the part of the screen which is warmed up regularly loses a bit of green tint, while the lower, colder part remains as it is??? Just a thought...

I get a weird purpley/dark colour on greys and when scrolling white font on black background, but only on minimum brightness.
After reducing brightness below a threshold (just above the minimum) the colours across the display seem to shift
Sent from my ONEPLUS A3003 using XDA-Developers mobile app

I got my replacement phone today. And. The display is even more worse. The colors are uneven, like some of them have here. The bottom is greener and the top slighlty pinkier/the correct color.

Argh. That's what I'm afraid of (sent my device in for replacement on Saturday):
That, as a replacement, simply someone grabs a box with a new device and sends it to me, without testing.
Edios, what did you write in the service request as your reason why you want a replacement? Did you write about the display problems?
Welcome to the lottery...
Does anyone know: If the 2nd device also has a defect, and the 14 day return time since I got the 1st device is already over, can I demand from Oneplus that they take back the 2nd device and that I get my money back??

I didn't even mention the issues, Amazon immediately gave me a replacement.
The problem is, they provide only a single replacement and now insisting to give a refund. But I want this device cos there's no other device that I'm interested in. And it's out of stock also.

For what it's worth, these sound like typical AMOLED issues. There are long threads in the Galaxy S6, S7, etc. forums with people experiencing the exact same thing. AMOLEDs just seem to not be as consistent as LCDs in the quality control department and it's always just the luck of the draw whether you get one with green or pink tints or not.
