on my display I have a vertical line slighty lighter than the rest of the display. Whole screen top to bottom. Anybody else same problem?
Sounds like a hardware fault to me, may be worth getting the unit replaced.

I wasn't sure haven't seen anything like this on any of my previously owned PDAs. It isn't a pixel problem. They show all the colors. It looks like the backlight is stronger. It's one pixel wide running top to bottom. And the difference in contrast is more pronounced in the darker areas. You can't see anything on white background but it is clearly visible on black or dark colours.

hey
has anyone here had issues with their screen - im getting some smudges on the middle right side stretching towards the center of the phone - is a darker smudge most evidently in white/grey/light colours situations or low luminosity
it also has a green hue when seen at an angle
i tried all sorts of troubleshooting but it wont go away - if any - i think its getting worse
i will have to send the phone back for a replacement but am wondering if others have had this issue and is it just me or this year's quality of display is worse than in past years ( i never had issues with the display till this year)
Two words. Amoled lottery.

Nope...clearly a screwed screen. Replace it before Samsung finds a way to put the blame on you...
While I was watching a video, I noticed a permanent yellow tint on top of my screen (where signal/time/wifi are located, in those spots). The yellow tint is permanent and it's more noticeable when the brightness is on max, especially on white screens), it doesn't go away nor it changes (for example on yellow tint, i can see some past 'time' and notifications). I am not sure how to explain it better. The phone never fell down, nor It has any damages. I have it for a year and I never had any issues.
Anyone with the same problem? I mean it's something terrible but it sometimes it's annoying.
I also wanna say, if I take a screenshot of my screen, and then check that screen on my PC for example, I don't see the yellow tint.
That's exactly how it looks: https://cdn57.androidauthority.net/...17/05/aa-imgur-galaxy-s8-burn-in-1200x675.jpg
Screen burn in, I imagine? Plus I can see my Google keyboard clearly on a fully blue screen. I wonder if the problem is just the screen or the frame underneath the screen as well. I guess it's not fixable unless you replace it...
Hi,
Got a new Moto Edge 20 Pro a couple of weeks back.
The display at low brightness has very noticable Faint White Lines and the display looks grainy, like newspaper texture almost like the Kindle Display.
At darkness, when the display refresh rate is set to auto, I can see the grainy noise and the white lines change when I touch the display.
Grey and White colors arent Pure Grey and White. When I use pwmfree 1.3 or OLED SAVER app, the white lines are almost gone (not entirely gone) and the grainy texture / noise increases.
Any idea whats going on, whether it is a software or a hardware issue ?
is there a way to get this fixed ?

The noise on the display is the nature of OLED displays. Or at least the one on this phone. I have a regular Edge 20, but they have the same display anyway. Same issue you pointed out: grain with certain colors and at lower brightness. And yes, I do get some vertical lines at the bottom of the screen. It's not defect, it's just the way it is.

I had an iPhone12 before this and that too had an OLED Panel, and I wasnt able to see anything like this.
And the Noise is not consistent. It's pretty freaking uneven and Its a total mess. To see the Noise completely, just open a 2% grey image or something and observe it. It's pretty abysmal. No way OLED displays are this bad.
I just think that Moto has crapped on its customers with a defective batch of Displays.
Also the situation gets better when you use pwmfree app.
The panel's gray uniformity is pretty bad. Im suspecting if this is a case of banding/dirty screen effect on oled screens, which is a defect and not a norm for an OLED Displays.

Ah, well, I haven't owned any expensive phones so I can't really compare to anything other than the Moto Z2 Play, which also had a grainy OLED panel. If I were you I'd be annoyed as well, but I payed a fraction of MSRP for my phone so I can't complain.

I have noticed a weird behavior with the display. forcing it to 60Hz by enabling power saving mode significantly reduces the grain and make the panel a lot more uniform.
Hey,
Just bought this phone used and I'm noticing slight imbalances on the screen, especially in solid colors.
It seems like subtle dark stripes from top to bottom every mm or so
Also their is a "grain" to the display in some colors.
When changing the refresh th this becomes more noticeable and 90hz appears to be much cooler in color.
Anybody else noticed such irregularities?
I'm not really disturbed by it, just curious if this is normal for a "flagship" screen
