Uneven Pink Hue - help!

So for the first time after getting the phone I turned on adaptive brightness and pulled slider completely left. I was expecting pink hue but then I realized that the top part of my phone was more pink than the bottom half is that normal?
Could you guys please post a pic of your screen with a white background and adapative brightness on and lowest brightness? I know its too much to ask but it would really be helpful.

Anyone?

I have a similar issue. My bottom half is more pink. It seems like most people have it to some degree.

How did you come to that conclusion?

It does go pink but I've never seen it as you describe.
Please don't bump threads within 24 hours of your last post. Its against the rules.

Sorry about that!
If you turn down your brightness all the way in a dark room with adaptive off and look at a white background - is your screen uniformly pink?

The pink is a bi-product of adaptive. It shouldn't happen when adaptive is off.

My original post says that with adaptive brightness turned off and at the lowest brightness, I can see that the top part of my screen has more pink tint to it than the bottom of the screen. Not the overall hue.

It turns pink below 10% when the adaptive brightness is on but it never happens as you've described Do one thing, turn on the brightness at max and put a full white wallpaper and see if there is any screen burn-in present or not?

No screen burn in. The way to test my issue would be
1. Turn on adaptive brightness.
2. Set brightness to lowest level.
3. Look at a white image full screen.
4. In a dark room, I notice that the top part of the screen has some minor banding which makes the top half of the screen seem a little more pink than the bottom half.

No not answered.
My top half of the screen is more pink than the bottom half at lowest brightness.
The pink is not the problem. The unevenness is.

I think I have the same issue

Black screen doesn't turn off pixels

Hi everyone, as you should know the Asus Zenwatch 3 has an AMOLED display. From my understanding this should mean when displaying the colour black, the pixels should be turned off completely (like on my S7 Edge).
I was looking at my watch in a pitch black room with an ambient watch face displaying a black background and it appeared slightly reddish. Compared with my LG G Watch R sporting the exact same watch face it was clear the LG had the black pixels turned off but not on my Zenwatch 3.
I've attached a couple of pictures taken with my phone of the Zenwatch 3 in a pitch black room, one with normal shutter speed and the other with a 2 second shutter speed. Evidently the 2 second shutter speed shows that the display is in fact not turning off the pixels. The pics were taken when the watch was charging and in ambient mode with a watch face set to true black only.
Can anyone else confirm that this is the case and maybe a reason why? I'm worried that battery life may be affected by this with always on display enabled.
Lastly on a side note, are the black lines that aren't illuminated something to worry about?

Mine is the same, including a similar set of dark lines. I've seen others on Reddit report identical concerns.

Noticed this too, thought I was crazy lol...kinda waste of an AMOLED screen.

Hmmm ok at least I'm not the only one. Hopefully Asus is able to change it in a future update.

Yeah it is weird, black watch faces aren't truly black. I think they did it so watch faces can blend into the color scheme of the watch, if you notice the color overlay on the app launcher

That's because of auto Brightness. Turn it off. This impacts battery life. I observed this on very first day after the purchase. Using manual Brightness since then.

I just tried disabling Auto Brightness but the red tinge of the black background still exists.

It doesn't happen with me. If I turn off auto Brightness the blacks go complete black. Do you have live display turned on your phones? If so try disabling it. May be this setting depends on your phone. All I can confirm is if I turned auto Brightness off amoled works perfectly.

Not sure what you mean by live display but I just have a stock S7 Edge. I prefer keeping the auto brightness on for my watch so I guess I'll have to live with it.

Live display is when some ROMs allow the screen to have a tint at night time so the blue light from the screen won't affect your eyes at night

Me too have similar display and black line like that.
Glad I'm not the only one with this condition.

I also have those black lines, was about to get a replacement but since I'm not the only one and it doesn't affect overall performance or aesthetics its fine.

Yeah I have also black lines and screen is not completely dark with totally black watch faces

Turning off the auto brightness is not a solution. Its a pain if you had to adjust the brightness all the time

Dirty Screen. Defective?

My new Mi 8 seems to have a defective screen. The defect becomes visible when the screen brightness is very low. Is this normal on Mi 8? Or mine is just defective? I've noticed it yesterday night when using a blue light filter called Night Shift. It's visible specially on reddish background and a blue light filter makes the screen color to reddish. You should also try yours and see if it's defective. I specifically downloaded a black image for a better view and turned on Night Shift with Dark filter and lowered brightness at 1-5%

The point is, what is the point of using the phone at brightness 1-5%?

Red Tint Issue Solution

After lots of research, I finally found a solution, but its temporary.
Download & Install ScreenDimmer (Dims Notification Too) By Etsang From Play Store.
Keep the auto brightness off, and device brightness @100% (Or Above 50%), install app, give permissions and change brightness from app according to your usage, thats it.
I think red tint is a software bug, not a hardware, because at last the motive is to decrease the brightness (dim the display) without red tint. App is also doing the same. The only difference is it has no red tint.

This works but if advise against using it. It records your inputs.
More to your point of it being a software bug, I agree. I wats always under the impression that they could fix it by adding blue in software based on the light sensor input. I noticed that if you put your phone in grey scale (in notification tray) that the grey for the icons in the tray that are toggled on, are actually grey while the other have a red tint. Normally the toggled on icons are blue when not in grey scale. The fact that it can show grey properly under these conditions as well as the one you described shows software could address the issue.

Oh wow it works but im gonna wait for asus to fix it.

Yeah, actually the brightness mechanism of oleds and LCDs is different, lcds just have a backlight led that would get brighter or dimmer pretty straightforward, but OLED's case is different, getting brighter or dimmer means showing different frequencies of the same color so our eyes can see that color brighter or dimmer, thats why when you turn the brightness of an oled panel down you still dont feel the way you do with a lcd
Long story short, this tint issue is most probably caused by wrong calibration of different brightness levels but still, i would take my hopes up with asus...they dont have a good history of customer support at least in their mobile phones section
Btw, thanks for the app and thumbs up

happy to hear this is a software issue. I am sure Asus will fix this with an update.

I knew this was a software bug long time ago. Since I noticed even night mode did same problem too. That's who I found out this is software defently.

Tint in k20 pro display

Hey guys, hope you are doing great.
I have noticed one peculiar thing, when i sit in pitch dark places with brightness at the end, i face this white issue over my display screen shot attached, it's Google chrome app which showing me these results,(there are many more also)for this to be noticed you must sit in a dark room.
I know it's typical led panel issue and i would like to know if i am the only one?

Do you seriously think we are able to see your display in a screenshot?

If you are in a pitch dark room and see no anamoly then your's display is good. If not you will see a whitish tint over the top area
And btw you can check on your device itself, by just opening chrome(if it's black) and in dark room with brightness as low as possible.

Enable feature in display settings under anti flicker mode to on. and check again your screen in low light conditions.

Yup, that worked, it increase overall contrast for low brightness, is this condition(tint) is normal for amoled panel, or i am just unlucky.
