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.

Hi,
Has anyone notciced un-even brightness across the screen at low light levels (for darker colors)? I thought it was just the nature of these OLED screens, but I don't see this with Galaxy Phone with similar display type, so I'm wondering if I just have a defective unit with bad display.
To test it:
- Do this at night (when ambient light is fairly low).
- Lower brightness down to the lowest setting (turn off auto-brightness)
- Open Chrome browser, and close all tabs, so that you get a blank dark screen with just the "+" icon. This leaves a dark gray background, just enough to notice if there is any uneveness in brightness.
On my unit, I see about 3-4 inches of bands/streaks of darker areas at bottom half of the screen. If I rotate the tablet, the darker areas stay in their physical location (so these bands become vertical instead of horizontal), so I know it's not a software issue.
I have a couple of weeks left before I need to decide on whether to exchange the tab, so would appreciate if anyone can help me verify if this is normal thing with these screens.
Many thanks, Tony.

I have notice a similar thing, mostly on gray - dark gray backgrounds, and not necessarily at lowest brightness (low enough though). I wanted to check about it on a couple of devices on display at retail stores but it's hard to test there.

Hi tonyc1,
Having had 4 of these I can confirm that this unevenness is normal on the 9.7" screen but was not present on the 8" model.
I went through 4 to get one that was reasonably even, 2 of them were pretty awful to the point that the greyscale was all over the place.
The unit I settled on has a slightly darker band in the middle of the screen and a slight darkening at the very top.
I owned the original tab s 10.5 and have to say the screen on that was more even and detailed, I prefer the former factor and speed of this S2 but the screen is a step backwards.
Hope this info helps.
Cheers
Thanks for the notes and confirming this is a somewhat common issue. I guess I will live with it for now..
Hi
I just received my Redmi 4x. While I tried different wallpapers I noticed a slight green tint on the lower border of the display.
Further inspection showed a visible green coloration on the lower portion of the display. The brighter the display gets, the more visisble it becomes. I don't care about the slight light-bleed on the top or bottom left.
You can find some photos I took.

Of course I don't watch black images at maximum brightness all day. This scenario was chosen for the purpose of illustrating the problem.
I wonder if the display of my Redmi 4x is an exception or the standard.
Thanks for your participation.
I have this problem also. I am using my 4x for 5 months already, and I always use adaptive brightness, but still I got back light bleeding
Hi guys,
I'm experiencing screen bleeding issue on the left edge, with dark mode on. I'm able to notice that whenever opening Youtube app (with dark theme) specially during night time. Is anyone else experiencing this?
Typically I've heard of screen bleeding in LCD screens. Surprised to notice that on an AMOLED...
Does it have like a little slit at the left side when properly place under light? Mine has. So worried a little splash of water can go inside.
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
