But the screen...
The left edge has this purple tint, and whenever I see black text on a while background, I see these... faint horizontal lines extending from the text?
Has anyone gone the repair route with Nokia, and if so, how did it go? It's either that or I send it back.

The lines are a side effect of the screen. If you mean a thin line on the left side of the screen, this is a effect of the screen as well.
Well that's disappointing. As for the left side, I mean an area that's tinted pirple. It goes about 3/4 of a centimeter from the left edge.

That's not normal. Some people have a full colored line with the width of maybe 1/10th of a mm on one side of the screen. But you should contact the Nokia Hotline, Chat or Mail Support with this problem. Could be a faulty screen...
I just sent it back. Nokia was quoting a 7-10 business day turnaround time.
I got that purple thing too in one of my Lumia's. It went like a gradient across the whole screen for me. Changed it and the one I have now doesn't suffer from it at all.
The line-bleeding you mention from text though, it's part of the technology I'm afraid.
Now you mention it, I have a 1 pixel purple line down the left hand side of the screen.

As stated above, the thin line is a side effect of the pentile display.

There's also a green one on the right side. It's a side effect of the pentile pixel arrangement.
On mine the purple gradient is only noticeable with low brightness on a grey/white background.
The screen is the only bad thing about the Lumia 800, even though it has its own advantages like the ClearBlack.
Does anyone else have screen discoloration near the bottom by the capacitive keys? Its only visible on lighter pages, ie white or off white colors such as web pages and the xda app...not sure what to do about it and if its normal
Edit: seems to be the glue related yellow tint?

Yes, at the very bottom. It is slight but there on white pages. Not as concerned about that as I am about the LCD flex issue.
This screen is beautiful but the manufacturing process and lamination of this screen currently has issues!

I know, it's such an amazing screen. Not sure what to do about the discoloration. Do you think it will go away with time if it's the glue?
I have the same issue. The whole screen has a warm tone but on a white screen you can certainly see a shift towards yellow on the very bottom portion of the screen. I personally think it's from the buttons.

Why is that the screen of s3 is uneven?? I mean the four corners in the screen look like they are not equally placed...ie...the distance of the four corners from the edges aren't equal...I've seen so many pics of s3 in web n almost all of them show such unequal placement...is it bcoz of the uneven white paint on the top of the phone which makes it look like uneven or is there a possibility for the screen to be misplaced?? Is the screen inside prone to move when dropped or is it immovably rigid??
In the pic .... If u notice carefully on the left bottom corner ...u can see tat it has a broader gap when compared to the right corner bottom....

Even here. It's 2 to 1 now and that's not in most cases. Let the poll begin!
Seriously, not happy return it.
Obviously a defect from manufacturing or you dropped it in your sleep or it got knocked around in shipping etc.

Hi. I noticed that the colors of the screen of my i9300 is not uniform. For istance, when I load a full white page, the top of the screen is lightly blueish/greenish than the bottom. Do you have the same issue? Is it normal? It is not the angle of view. Thanks
I do seem to have a very mild case of this, but only noticable on a white screen. The top of mine is very slightly yellower than the bottom.

Is this an issue anyone else is dealing with? Everything is darker toward the top of the screen vs the bottom. And the fade seems to happen right in the middle of the screen.
