Ultra deep blacks, almost Amoled-like, quiet impressive for an LCD screen.

Mine has a reddish tint. Setting the colour temperature to the coldest possible setting only minimizes the tint.

I think this isn't quite accurate. I came from an Amoled to the HTC U11 and it took me a week to get used to the colours. At first felt very washed out. However now it's fine now my eyes have adjusted.

Do you have a pink /reddish tint?

No, not at all.
There was on the firsts HTC 10, but not a single one on HTC U11
You can control color saturation with custom kernel to be closer to amoled, this is what I used to do with my previous HTC

Mine has a reddish tint as well when screen brightness is low. Did you solved this issue, or did it go away by itself like htc 10 users were reporting?
Thanks
Mine has a reddish tint too when the brightness is under 80-85%, and almost disappear at full brightness. Is there a fix for this?? I should sent it to warranty?

I am a prospective buyer of the Moto X and have my heart set on this phone. However, after using a friend's piece for a while today, I have concerns about the display.
I found the AMOLED display did not render the grays very nicely. They we very reddish brown in my opinion. I understand this is an AMOLED problem, but the X is supposed to have one of the best AMOLEDs out there.
Is this a problem generally in the X or was that perhaps a problem with that particular piece? Is this problem solvable via software?
Thanks!

I mean the greys are a bit harder to distinguish on his phone but I see the reddish brownish like greys on mine. *sad face*.. He's still jealous over my phone so I still win lol. The note 3 has a larger display and higher ppi so there are going to be differences.
Strange I don't see reddish brown s in mine , the shades of grey I find better than on my sons s4 active.
I've noticed that the greys gets brownish when the display is set to the lowest brightness
Browning and reddish, yep. It doesn't really bother me. My pictures look nice and i can't tell the difference from another screen. I think this is more noticeable in the system UI. Everything else is just fine.
Grey looks grey on my device. I've compared it to about 20 different devices I own (all with different display types) and I haven't noticed any different beyond greys being a tad darker on AMOLEDs, which isn't surprising.
The only time I found there to be an exception was when I set the brightness to 25% or less and held it up to my (far brighter) LED TV. There's an extremely subtle yellowish tint to it that I only see in this case. Immediately moving it away from my TV it looks perfectly fine again.
Long story short: You should be ok, and I wouldn't consider it a reason to not pick up the phone. Even if it were an issue, the device's pros far outweigh that minor detail. Plus you'd likely get used to it over time. Personally I think the screen looks incredible, better than on most other devices I've used.

Meh contrast. Blacks are kind of a dark gray.
Best black levels I've seen on an IPS display to date, ambient display looks practically like OLED on here.
True contrast ratio is about 1:1500 and looks amazing.
Huge improvement over the N5 which was no slouch in the display quality department itself.
Blacks are as good as I would ever expect on a LCD display.
EDIT: Just did a side by side comparison with my Nexus 5 and the blacks/contrast on the Nexus 5X is better than the Nexus 5. Also, screen uniformity on the Nexus 5X is better. The screen obviously can't do pure black like an AMOLED can but it's pretty good for a LCD with perfect uniformity(at least that I can tell) across the entire screen. On the Nexus 5X with a full black background in a totally dark room with the brightness at 100% and my Nexus 5X has ZERO light bleed from the edges of the display. I think this is the first time in my life that I can say that. Every LCD I have ever seen(smartphone, TV, computer monitor, etc) had some level of light bleed from the edges.
I still prefer AMOLED to LCD but as far as LCDs go I have 0 complaints for the Nexus 5X.

The screen is AMOLED, so blacks are perfect.

the screen is super amoled so it's really good for a budget phone
yes it gets perfectly black colors since it uses amoled screen, but after 2 years of using this phone, i noticed that the white colors on it aren't that white anymore and it shows a very light yellow color instead of pure white. probably amoled screens degrade overtime

Not super amoled. Only amoled...

Can get very dim indeed. Hard to be legible underneath dim indoor lighting.
did they fix the agressive auto brightness?

The screen is good for the price and I didn't really notice it's 1080p. Although I had 4 cause I had uneven tints. That's more of an oled lottery than oneplus

I honestly dint think so either till i sat the S8 and the OP5 next to each other....forget sharpness, the color, contrast and screen is just in another league.

To be fair Samsung do the best screens so it will look better side by side with any other screen. I think the oneplus 5t will fair a little bettwr against it
Hi! In my opinion, the minimum brigthness is pretty much bright. I usually read in my bed and I have to use 3rd party apps like Twilight to decrease more the brigthness. I'd like it to be much darker. The maximum bright is perfect.
The minimum brightness is too bright in my opinion.
I have to use twilight in night
In low or dark ambient light the screen seems to have a pinkish or red tint when viewing the panel to the side. I don't remember seeing this on the N20U. Anyone else?
Very common in phones in the past year. Either green or red tint in low light. My 8pro has a green tint at low light levels and there's many reports from many makes and models of phones of this.
So probably normal. Just didn't seem to be a bright or white as the Note 20U.

Im not sure it's "normal" more that there's something going on with the latest Samsung panels. Is the N20U 120hz? I think it's something to do with the refresh rates because OLED TVs suffer from "raised blacks" at 120hz. I think high refresh rates mess up gamma levels in OLED.
Yes the Note was 120 but not qhd
Do you have a screen protector installed? it could make this tints worse, also don't forget this issue is only with "cheaper" displays, i don't think Samsung uses that kind of "cheaper" displays in flagships!
I did remove the factory protector and it did seem to make the panel slightly brighter. The pink only shows up in low ambient light with the screen at100% and really only then if viewing it at an angle. It's slight but haven't seen this on the Note 10, Note 20 or s20.
Are you using 120hz? On the note 20 ultra this cause slight colour shifts...
Yes 120 and qhd although not at the same time on the Note.
I don't see pink tint in my s21 ultra.
Exynos version
How does the white balance in a dark room with the screen cranked up seem? Warm or cool? It's not as bright as the Note so maybe that's what I'm picking up on.

This is the reason... Sadly every device with 120hz has either red or green tint issue :/
Well that is unfortunate then.
Yes to pink tint! Exynos
no pink for me USA model snapdragon
Same Pink tint problem. Exynos. Don’t need 100% brightness. Just at white screen and slightly tilt it. And pink tint appear.
Same as 13:20s in this video
So it sounds like it might be normal for these panels then and the 120 hz as mentioned above
I just turned the white balance one notch to cool and it seems to eliminate the pink and then into the advanced and then the red down a bit
