Are there links to see pictures or video of the screen burn in, blue off angle that those of you with the issues can say are representative of the experience you are having?

Hi all
I faced a very strange problem. Let go of the dead pixels, I am talking about the camera previewing the image very clear and OK. After the shot has taken place the photo is decorated with bright spots (red, blue..etc) sometimes 2, sometimes 5 it depends -I dont know on what. They are not present in the real view ofcourse. This is not dead pixels as they move and grow as I zoom in to the photo..Any similar encounters???? Or Advice. By the way, this is my second exchange from amazon. I asked them to send me a third unit.

Thank you for your reply. Please find attached the photo with the problem previoiusly mentioned. You can see the bright 2 spots in the middle and to the right of the picture if you enlarge it they will appear clearly. Those 2 dots are not present in the real scene nor pre the shot in the view finder. After the camera takes the shot they appear in all pictures.
Here's a snap I took with the camera right on top of a black surface. You can see there's a couple of spots near the bottom but certainly not as bad as yours. It probably happens since the camera is not made for taking black photos and as it struggles to focus, it is "tricked" into thinking there's some light there where there's not. But anyway, if it bothers you to the point where it effects your normal photos, then you should return it.
I took a bunch of photos today. Looking them over on my computer monitor this evening I noticed something odd. All my photos are blurry on the left side but sharp in the center and on the right side. This is for the photos taken with the phone sideways (landscape). Photos that were taken with the phone vertical (portrait) show blurriness on the top of the phone but the middle and bottom look sharp. I checked the camera lens and it is clean, no dirt or smudges. Anybody else have this problem?
I just checked mine to be sure. Nope, no problem with mine. I might be a hardware defect or something. How about pictures taken using a different camera app?

I am having the same problem?
My Galaxy Nexus seems to have the same screen issues that I have seen reported over and over on here. I can see faint lines when the backlight is low, and the screen looks really grainy.
I haven't seen any pictures of people's screens that are supposedly good. Can someone please post a photo of their "good" screen at low brightness showing a white background for me?
I would like a photo to compare to before my exchange period is over. I tried comparing the demo models in the Verizon store, but they all looked like my phone. Thanks.
For reference, my screen looks very similar to the photos posted in the following thread...

I got a mms an the picture is kinda fuzzy an not crisp at all, pictures taken also seem a little fuzzy not as crisp an clear as i expect, coming from a evo 3d an mms and taken pics an downloaded pics all were crystal clear...just wondering if this is normal on the Gnex...
*downloaded a couple pictures from LOL pics an moved them over from the 3d which looked crystal clear, an also downloaded some on the device an they look fuzzy an not detailed and clear like before (3d)*
Well first off... it's an MMS. A super low resolution compressed picture on a high res screen is going to look fuzzy for sure. As for the camera, people have reported focusing issues. There are threads on it. The screen is fine.
Ok thanks.
Anybody else noticing an extremely subtle light purple-ish haze on the edges of extremely low light photos - i.e. where the dark/black areas are in a low light photo around the edges?
It's subtle. It's a reach to see it at times. But this is an expensive phone, so I'm going to nitpick... It reminds me of the old issues with the HTC One M7 and some older Motorola devices, though on a much more subtle level. I'm probably crazy, but I know I'm seeing it at times.
Snapdragon S20+ here (Verizon variant)
Ok, so I realize it would've helped my first post with some photos and additional info. Please keep in mind, I love the camera on this phone 90% of the time, but this 10% is an issue that reminds me of the old days (per my first post). I have two sets of photos... First are the originals, uploaded, and added into Photoshop with a black "frame" to help you see the haze better. The second set is a photo from my iPhone of what those photos look like on my S20's screen. Reality lies somewhere in between the two. The second set over-emphasizes more than what I see on the screen, and the first set mutes it too much. These photos are night mode photos, which I realized after my first post helps to accentuate and show the issue.
Ultimately the problem seems to be how the software and/or sensor are handling the extremes when you have a bright light source as the focal point, and dark outer edges (again, reminiscent of oooold devices). Anyway, the photos are attached. Hopefully that help clarifies it a bit more. It's nitpicky, as there aren't many scenarios where this would come up. But it's a $1k+ phone... I feel like I'm allowed to be nitpicky.
Is it always on the left side of the phone screen? i.e. always on the top of the phone? or does it change to either side when you rotate the phone (could be on the top or bottom sides)? I have not observed this purple thint issue, but your third photo shows that it is extremely bad.

No, it's more pronounced on the left there due to the lighting in that situation. But if you look at the fourth picture you can see it's relatively even on both sides where things start to darken.

I'm not saying it's normal, I too suffered from the HTC M7 syndrome but in those specific photos, is the purple haze coming from a TV light on your left? Is there any tv screen running when you took the pictures?

No - no TV's on anywhere. The purple haze is coming from the especially dark areas.
Just checked on mine s20+ exynos, other than very minor green tint no issues, if i were you i would replace it asap - something isnt right

I bought an unlocked S20 (+ was too large for me anyway) and tested it last night in the exact same spot and exact same scenario, and very little haze at all with no purple. I can see what it's trying to do - it's trying to lighten up those darker areas, but for some reason on that S20+ it was making it purple-ish and just plane ugly. It doesn't look "great" on the regular S20, but it's at least not purple and clearly just trying to lighten it up. S20+ is already on its way back for the return.
