Just picked up sm-p600. Screen has some fade or washing out at bottom. Does yours? Honestly I hope it's normal but if it's not I worry it'll slowly work it's way up the screen. Thanks. I'll post screens if I need to but you know what I'm saying
White cloudy fade at bottom corners.
Edit: back light is the word I'm looking for. Now I can search questions again so sorry if this has already been brought up.

I got that, too. The only minor inconvenience with the display. The effect may vary somewhat among individual units, but it seems, as there's also a faint bleeding at the bottom, that theres only a bottom backlight, and the edges are sort of dead angles beside the led stripes.
Sounds like you're not taking yours back over it.. I think I'll keep it. I had a nightmare with the n7 when it first came out. Replaced 5 times. I don't want to go through that again. Thanks for response

Last night I was laying on my bed watching a movie on my phone. I notice somthing is wrong with my screen, when there's no light in the room and my phone is on a black screen. I have something wrong with my black color on the bottom of the screen, its really hard to describe but if you look at it, it looks not normal. But when im not on a black screen the screen looks 100% normal you cant even tell there is an issue with my screen. I was wondering if other people are getting this issue. Just go to a room that's really dark, put your phone with a black wallpaper and look at the screen you might have to turn up brightness to see it.

OOOOOOO wow... thats lame but I feel alot better that you said that. thanks for letting me know.
mine has it too its normal
In very dark conditions, all these screens seems to have a noticeable glow on black, and lines, dots, and/or spots that are darker (like ink marks). I got mine replaced twice and settled on the third with only a single small spot on the right middle of the screen.

Yea, i have it too. never really thought anything of it... kinda figured it probably was just something to do with amoled screens. Not like i'm frequently looking at a black screen anyway... and it's only really noticable in the dark.
they look like black blotches of paint or something right?
My Infuse and SGS2 both have them is thats what you are referring too. if you load a brown image like XDA brown far more noticeable.
that is how i noticed them on other two devices.
Maybe I'm just lucky. But I don't have those blotches on my s3. Did have them on my atrix 4G though. And this sgs2 I was borrowing from a friend. Only had my gs3 since yesterday though. Maybe age matters?

Yea I've just got a small black blotch at the bottem left of my screen. Only noticeable when its pitch black

What's funny is. On my Atrix they were visible even with "color" showing. Faint. But visible. Very noticeable on black screens though. Gs2 wasn't too bad. But this gs3 shows none whatsoever.

So I understand this is a recurring issue with some AMOLED displays, but is anyone else noticing black splotches on your screen if you put a fully black image on the screen, turn the brightness all the way down, and look at your phone in a very dark room? I'm curious how common it is before I complain. I'll post a picture tomorrow if I can capture it. It looks kind of like an ink trail near the middle of my screen. Thanks!

I just checked my over 2 year old SGSIs screen and do not see any blotches. You are also the first person that i have read about that has any problems. That does not mean youeare alone however. I have heard many running 4.2 complaining about black artifacts being seen on the screen.

Some people here are having the same problem while others are not... luck of the draw I suppose... doesn't really bother me but if it bothers you try and see if you could get another in its place

I have them on mine; there are two splotches about 3/4" long roughly in the middle, just left of center. Doesn't bother me though, since I can't see them during normal use.
Had the issue on mu-tiple Samsung skyrockets...the original note and on the s3.
I have seen them on some note 2 but mine I have not found one yet.

I have a small one at the top left of the screen. My first one was right down the middle. My OCD took hold and I swapped it out. It's the same thing on my new one.
Sure, I wish it wasn't there but you really have to have perfect conditions to actually see it.
It actually has something to do with inconsistent electrical charge or something. There's actually a team for this but I can't remember it.
LCDs have dead pixels and amoleds have these splotches.
The DROID Razor is really bad as is the PS Vita. It's just that tech.

After a few days of use I'm realizing that, for example, in mostly white screens, it looks a little pink towards the right side (landscape), this is EXTREMELY subtle but I can really notice it in a full white screen, it's still white but with a very, VERY subtle pink tone to it, I wonder if it's a common thing....
I'm very picky, don't know if normal people would realize that (in case they have the same issue...)
It's almost half screen.... Anyone?

I'm not seeing this on my screen, but maybe my eyesight wasn't what it used to be. Try taking a screen shot and transferring it to your computer and check if the pink tone is visible from there. If not then it's probably faulty hardware.
It looks fine to me.
Since I bought it at Best Buy I returned it and got a new one, the girl gave me a little bit of a hard time because she couldn't see anything wrong with the screen... I told her it took me 2-3 days to realize there was this light pink tone towards one side and it was only visible with white backgrounds.... So at the end I was able to return it, I'm glad I did because I was getting very uncomfortable with this.... Btw, there's a very good app to test the colors on the screen, it's called Display Tester (by gombosdev).. Really nice.

I don't remember were I read that if you turn on "reading mode" will give a pink tinge to screen. I think is mentioned on the manual but not sure.
Reading mode gives a nice creamy/yellow tone throughout the whole screen (obviously) only on user selected apps.

When I was wiping down the screen nicely before applying a screen protector I noticed in the bottom section, not where there is screen, theres a slight mark. As if something is behind it.
Its directly in the middle, aligned with the center of the Home softbutton, about and inch or so below the home button.
Seems like maybe a sensor, but I dont know. Anyone else notice this?

It's a white notification light. Wait until you get an email and it will flash about every 10 seconds. You can turn it off under settings/ display.

Oh damn, i feel like a fool. Yes I've seen the light, but didnt think about it at the moment.
Well at least I know I didnt physically damage it. Thank you sir.
Closure, its tastes so sweet.
I dont know if my eyes are just completely bugging out or if what im seeing is true. I got my replacement note 7 yesterday and everything went well but then i saw a red/pink tint towards the bottom of the screen i started to freak out but decided that i would let it fly til Monday or so hoping that its just glue or something drying up. Its more noticeable when the screen is on a full white screen or if the bottom/edge part of the screen is white but other than that you can't see it at all.

Sounds like a display issue. My Note 4 had half the screen streaked/covered with a similar color. It was really similar to what the blue-light filter looks like when turned about half way up actually. But it was only on about half the display, and in streaks so was more of a bother because it wasn't the entire screen. I honestly only really noticed it when I was reading my kindle app on my phone with the lights turned off, otherwise it really wasn't very noticeable in normal lighting conditions. Upon reading about this on google this can happen to these kinds of displays that Samsung uses. Might be something to send the phone back for a replacement. I'd really have to see a pic to know enough to know for sure though.
Sounds like a defect. Bound to be a few. Try massaging that area of the screen fairly hard and see if there is any change.

I had that issue on my silver Note 7 and opt to exchange it (after many rounds of persuasion and complaints with at least 3 Samsung technicians). Some see it, some don't. This happened right before the recall.
Thought it was only a random unit of mine, but since you also raised this issue, could be more widespread. FYI, my unit was international version. Also same pinkish hue at the bottom. My replacement unit (before the recall) did not have this issue.
My note 7 recall replacement is not here yet (Samsung announced our replacement only available officially on 29 Sept in my country). I too hope my recalled-replacement will not have the pink hue at the bottom of the screen.
