white on tilt? - Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers

Keeping the phone at a certain angle (reading angle while holding it) shows a yellowish tint. I make it flatter better whites show on the screen. Is it normal?

Mine is reverse. Prefer yours

Screen brighter in higher part of screen

I noticed that my screen seems a little bit brighter in higher part of the screen, i repeat it's barely noticeable, but it's seems so... It's due to screen illlumination structure that comes from high part of the screen? Is in yours devices the same?
How the hellck do people notice these things?
It's only noticeable in white and light color background
Anyone can try?

It's too hard to notice if i take a pic, as soon i lean slightly camera, the image change tonality... Maybe it could be fixed by software update, with One X , later softer version fixed screen uniformity also...

I have some slight darkening in the bottom left corner that's most noticeable on medium-low brightness against white backgrounds. It only bothers me when it's slow at work and I have time to harp on things. Otherwise, it's pretty unnoticeable in regular use.

Yellow tint

Did anyone notice a yellow tint sometimes on the screen? It is barely noticeable, but pretty annoying, and goes away when screen off.
Running stock AMD3.
I also found this is a problem in S4, has something to do with the pentile matrix display, some people left Samsung because of this...

Green tint when N6 is tilted

Guys I'm noticing this green tint on the glass/screen when the phone is tilted. Its green from all the angles, only when you look at the screen head on you see white. So all whites appear to be green when phone is tilted. This thing is screwing with my eye when I shift from PC to N6 or TV to N6.
Only at extreme angle the camera that I have is able to capture that green tint but to the eye it is visible at the slightest tilt.
Wanted to ask you if you'll are noticing similar issue? Can you please check, post pics from diff angle or even upload a video. It would be very helpful as I can go ahead and consider a replacement if the unit is defective.

The verge review mentioned this, mine have it but less noticeable, also didn't bother me at all, I never look the phone at that angles.
this is just a normal amoled thing i believe, my device has it too
Normal for AMOLED displays.
So what do you'll think? Should I ask for a replacement as it is more noticeable then the rest? When I'm on the PC and the phone is sitting on the desk right below the monitor from this angle the top half of the screen is green and the lower half is whitish. Is it normal in the case of amoled displays? Again this is my first device which has an amoled display, never used one before so my eyes may take time adjusting to it. I'm just worried about the unit being defective.
Check the screen for pink and yellow tint, there is a forum about it. The green/blue shift is normal as the nexus 6 uses last generation amoled screens like the ones found on the note 3 and galaxy s4

Is this the yellow pink tint you speaking about? Didn't notice this thing until you mentioned. I think a replacement is needed ...what do you say?
First pic is at max brightness adaptive display setting turned off.
Second pic is the wallpaper I used
Third has brightness at 50% adaptive display setting turned off.
My Nexus has a pink patch on the screen so I'm going to get it replaced but people are saying that it is a lottery and you might get a worse device.
Give it a try, you've paid for the device and it is your right to receive a device without flaws

Yellowish display?

Anyone else's display seem to have a yellowish tint? Mine seems very yellow looking at it straight on. But when I look at it angled either from the bottom or top it looks perfectly white with just a slight bluish tint. Either way it looks much better than yellow.
So what I'm trying to figure out is of I got a bad unit and if I should go get a new one. Only reason I am even considering not exchanging is the whole "scratchgate" bs.
Anyone care to weigh in?
BTW I have the 64gb black.

Comparing mine next to my LG g3 I noticed a yellow tint as well. Not a deal breaker for me as I rarely compare screen to screen but I've owned a gs2,gs3, and gs4 and there is always some yellowish tint discussion that pops up. You can keep exchanging until you get a more bluish tone but I don't have the energy any more lol. Screen still looks great to me!!
Blame AMOLED tech. Your options right now are a slightly yellow screen with generally more accurate color reproduction or a slightly blue screen with less accurate overall color reproduction but mildly more pleasant whites (to most people).
It wouldn't be a big deal but its really bad because its centered. By that I mean when I look at all the different sides from straight on I can tell they are more blueish and it makes the center look even more yellowed. I realize the amoleds generally run warmer in tone but it seems to me that the whole screen should at least carry the same tone from the same angle. Obviously because of the curved nature the color will shift on the actual edges of the screen but everything else ought to be the same color/tone.
Or am I totally off base here?

Doesn't really answer the question which is...
A: is it possible that my display is defective since it really only shows a warm yellow tone in the center most portion of the screen?
B: is this going to be true for all sgs6e's or is there a chance of having one where the tone is the same throughout the entire display face.
I understand color shifting and how is inevitable, but I would at least like my screen to have the same tone from top to bottom (obviously the edges will have a different tone done they are being seen at an angle when viewing the phone head on) rather than Top:Cold Middle:Warm Bottom:Cold

Just turned on Adaptive Display which seems to make the whole screen more uniform in tone temperature however angles are still a bit of a..... well..... bi*** because they remind me of the pure white coloring I've grown to know so well. But I suppose this is far more livable than before which was almost unbearable (thanks OCD).
May still try to swap for a new unit in a week or so just to see if anything has changed.

I have s6 edge too (32gigs black) (Indian Variant) and I also have the same problem. Coming from note 4 so this yellowish tint really is deal breaker for me!
you sure it isnt the adaptive screen setting?
what I found is if you are using the adaptive screen mode and reading a webpage w/ lots of text, it sometimes will change the tint to warmer which ends up with a yellowish screen instead of white, which may cause you to think that the screen is yellow (thats what I thought the first time I saw it)
try to change the screen type to some other settings and see if that get you the white color?
I am having the same problem. I know it's a defective screen because I have two S6 Edges here.
My black sapphire 32 gb has a white screen
My new gold platinum 64 gb has a yellow screen and its very annoying. I'm probably gonna exchange it

Hello . Please do tell if you use a screen protector film or glass . Cause i have the exact same problem and everybody saye it's the protector but i dont think so . It happend after a bootloop and because the phone turned too hot before i download the stock rom i decided to put it in refrigerator. Battey ran out and when It realized it the phone was too cold maybe next to 0 degree . After the flash was done I noticed the color has changed . So I'm kinda unsure

Warmer colors

JHey guys! I just bought this phone earlier. Got some few questions
1.) Does the charger come with it is a Fast Charger? I got the "3 pronged" one
2.) Is it my eyes or the color temp of the screen is warmer? I adjusted the greens and blues so I could get the whites where my eyes are used to. Did you calibrate yours also? Do note the levels that I adjusted to "my natural white" . Took the picture with Zenfone Max
It comes with the fast charger..
The screen is as it should be imo. Will see if I can write more when I have the time ?

^ alright thanks. I think my reds are explosive
I noticed this if you quickly drag the brightness slider back and forth on a white screen, you do see a red tint
^ but mine is noticable even on stationary brigthness, and it is noticeable if the displayed color is white and red. My reds are way too extreme and and whites have pinkish tints. I took the sample pictures of the screen with crappy cam, but it is palpable when compare the pics side by side

You are right, the red is a bit extreme now that you mention it. but should i choose between this and Samsung and the oversaturation then I would go for this any day. It is much better than the bad displays on the older phones like the arc and z for not to mention the z1

It's an IPS LCD (according to GSMarena) and I have known that IPS is notorious for their backlight bleeding in computer monitors and I have seen a lot but idk if IPS on mobiles are reddish.
