How visible is your digitizer in the sun? - Sprint HTC One (M7)

Mine is really noticeable, but I'm not sure what's normal. Took it to sprint and they claimed it was normal. Mine is pretty visible unless you are viewing dead on. It's almost distracting to the point I think I can see it indoors on white backgrounds. Any feedback would be appreciated.

959

Anyway to go back to the 959? I'm on 890. I've noticed some differences in another d3 in the house running the 959. Id like to see if its the software version.

The main one I noticed is my screen has a really bad blue tint in comparison to the other.

Took the pic of mine with the 959 one so the camera blue tint may b making it look worse than it is. So I did it differently. U can see the difference. Mine is on the right. And sorry about that blank post..fudged the buttons haha

Silly question, have you checked brightness settings?

Yup. I actually sent my replacement back, and kept my original which has a very tight slider. The replacements screen was blurry, and dull. Moto needs more quality control on the screens. I cant believe the varying differences.
Yeah both on auto brightness. But the difference is huge no matter what. The other looks much better in all conditions..oh well.

The screens are very different. I've noticed 2 drastically different types. One is blue tinted, and you can't see the grid pattern, but it ghosts badly. There's a more accurate screen with yellow-ish whites and it ghosts far less, but you can see an odd grid pattern and lines on the screen. My first 3 had the blue tinted screen. My 4th one right now has a very nice screen-it ghosts far less and colors are more accurate. But, everything has a noticeable grid pattern over it.
Interesting thank you

This is true, I have one with a more noticeable grid but better coloration.

Screen extreamly white/faded. UPDATED: included video

I saw another post from gamestop but I received mine from play store. And mine seems to be an extreamly bad case: see the picture. Barely useable since its so white. Anyone seen this problem / have any ideas? Also, has anyone had to get a replacement from the play store and have any information about it? Do you get a brand new one?

That is probably just from the camera moving while taking the picture. I've seen at least one other user with a screen that bad. So it may be real.
Mine was looked white and faded at first, however nothing remotely that bad. After about 3 days it seemed to get better. Though it seems most times when I play a video it gets white and faded again, but goes away a few seconds after leaving the video app.
But something that bad, I'm not sure if that'll look normal after a few days or not.

I really dont know why the screen doesnt line up, maybe i was holding it at an angle or something, but its legit just watch the vid
I wonder what would happen if you play a video, like the Transformers movie. My screen gets worse after playing videos, but then clears up (though never really looks completely good).

Same thing happens regardless of what im doing. After like 5 minutes of staying on it will only half as bad, but whenever i turn the screen off for more than 2 minutes it goes back to this
So same thing just started affecting me today. First let me start out that I've had 0 issues until today. Went to try one of the root kits and got my N7 rooted updated SU and restarted now its washed out just like whats shown by OP. Could be coincidence who knows. Is this a common defect that takes time to occur?
I bought mine on Monday from office depot. It was great until Thursday morning when it started this exact problem. I'm going back to office depot to exchange it tomorrow. My mom bought one from the Google play store and she hasn't had any of these problems.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
That is defective. Exchange it.
Same problem here. It was fine since I got it and now the screen is all washed out.
search for the thread of "screen burn in + washed out", you will find more information on RMA there. I had the same issue and received my replacement in 4 days. the left side of the screen is still a bit lifted on the new one, but that is nothing compared to white out screen.

NEXUS 4 Camera Issue.. Same as Iphone5

Looks like I might be canceling my orderdue to the purple glaze effect which the Iphone5 had. As camera is a important aspecr for me.

Update: yup. You guys are right. Its just a phone. And no. I dont take pictures of my food. Lol. I was expecting too much for a 300 dollar device. And no phone is perfect in every way. I do have a dslr, but I wont be carrying that with me 24/7. So sometimes you have to use your phone to freeze that perfect moment.
I was not trying to convince anybody to not get the phone. I was simply trying to get the fact out in case it does bother anyone.
My nexus will be arriving in a few days.
So one image of bright lights means it's a problem huh? Jesus...
Your purchase or lack thereof will be sorely missed.

This thing isn't an issue. I currently have the iPhone 5 on my sprint account and the pictures come out great with rarely any purple haze. To each his own but to not buy a phone because of this slight issue is crazy.

You should at least try it. If you just rely on review every time, you won't but anything. I was afraid that this phone wouldn't be a real upgrade (i had a galaxy nexus). But the hardware is really good and the reactivity of the device is just amazing.
I would consider give it a try, you can always send it back if you want to and get a refund.

Finding a reason to hate the phone because you couldn't get one? Kinda bitter...
All phone cameras get this AFAIK. It's bright lights that do it. Some do it more than others, but they all do it to some degree.
I don't have that issue...but if it means that much to you, then just go buy a dedicated camera and use it.

Even reflex objective suffer some purple fringing at max aperture in direct sunlight, and some of them cost more than the n4.
I don't even know why people should bother about this, just learn to move when make a photo and don't make direct light photos...
Test
Ok...
Stare at a bright light for 1 min without blinking... do you see a purple haze? Bright lights stress optics this is nothing new use a filter.

Backlight Bleeding

Sorry if this topic has been posted already, but is anyone else experiencing back light bleed. It's most noticeable with high brightness and black background. I wouldn't complain about something like this normally but it's quite noticeable on mine.

Lets see some picture examples?
It's IPS, they all have it, if you don't want bleed then buy an OLED screen. Why do you think they never turn the screen to full brightness at shows?

Should I exchange my phone?

I got my one from best buy, last night I noticed that when the screen is on, on the lower left side part of the screen is a little brighter, it's about half inch in diameter, it seems like the screen is being pressed, bc if I press the screen myself a little lower, it goes away and the same thing happens where im currently pressing. The is also a small bright dot right in the middle of the screen, which also is only noticesable with s black background.
And last thing, I don't know if this is normal, but the touch screen is not accurate at all

All of that is normal. They actually made it like this as a selling point.
