I just got my AT&T Galaxy S III the other day and I'm loving it aside from the whole camera controversy, and my Menu capacitive button seems to be lit oddly. Half of it seems dimmer. It's not a huge thing, but kind of annoying. The side closer to the home button is brighter while the other half is dimmer. I have a Pebble Blue S III. Has anyone else encountered this, is this normal?

Does everyone's keyboard light up all the keys? Or did I get a defective phone? I notice that the 3, 6, and 9 keys are real bright and the rest of the keyboard in between is sort of dim, almost like a wave of lights across the keyboard...i also notice my 1(!) key is very very dark, almost like no light at all...should I exchange my TP for another one? other than that my phone works great!
those areas are where the light sources are. mine is almost the same way. i don't really mind it that much since the rest of the phone works great.
Mine is the same they probably just did 3 lights at the top instead of lights all around the keyboard to save power.
oh. i guess its more noticeable in the light when its not really necessary. i wish the light sensor would sense keyboard light is not needed. in the dark it appears that the entire keyboard becomes lit, just brighter in some spots than others
have a fuze from att...its the same way.
I got my SGS2 today, and I'm very happy with it. The only issue I've had so far is that the light in the two touch buttons are a bit low.
Also, the screen sensitivity seems to be a bit on the lower side. I quite frequently have to press buttons two times to get it to register.
Has anyone else had these problems?
Anyone?
Anyone...?
The light on the lower 2 buttons seems fine for me. But that's probably subjective.
I've gone through 4 replacement Galaxy S2's due to various reasons needing replacements, and on all of them the sensitivity on the touch screen seems abit low in that I can tap the screen lightly and quickly so that it doesn't register on the screen. However on my HTC Desire I can't get the phone to NOT register an input, no matter how lightly and quickly I do it.

That is a bit worrying - why have you gone through 4 replacement Galaxy S2's? What was wrong with them?
Just wondering if anyone else has noticed this on their RAZR. While in landscape mode (I first noticed this while watching Netflix). In the corner near the search capacitive button I noticed the lighting for the capacitive button seeps out a little, like a very small amount. It doesn't overwhelm the screen or anything. When holding my phone upright and looking down towards the capacitive buttons, I do notice some light coming out from the left and right corners. Just wondering if this is because of the design and is normal? Or is it a flaw in the phone? Thanks!
I have noticed this as well on my unit. I have also noticed black blotches on the screen that can be seen when the screen is completely black.

Hmm. It is somewhat hard to notice, I'm still wondering if it is a design thing or flaw.
I have exchanged my Razr and there is still light bleeding from the capacitive button (search). Also the black blotches remain when the screen is black and the backlight is on.

Thanks for confirming this.

My screen also has the blotches when the screen is black and in low light conditions.my capacitive buttons also bleed into the screen in the corner but its not something i notice only when i really scrutinise the device.
I have a small streak or two of the blotches but they're only noticeable during the black boot up screen, not when using Netflix or YouTube.
There's absolutely no leaking from the white light of buttons though..
I also have the black bloches, it's like the screen isn't AMOLED; the black's aren't completely black, i compared it to the Galaxy S 2 and on the Galaxy you can hardly see where the edge of the screen is because it is completely black but on the RAZR it's as if the screen is more greenish where the Galaxy would be completely black.
The black's look better on the first Galaxy S than they do on the RAZR
I first noticed when i started using NOLED, i like it better than the led notification light on the RAZR
In any case, quite dissapointing
BTW i don't have light bleeding from the capacative buttons
Hmm. So some units have it and some don't? I do confirm the black blotches when watching netflix and the screen goes black you notice it. The light bleeding i noticed while watching a full HD movie and I was like eh.. What's this tiny flash moving in the corner. That's when I noticed the light bleed, and it occurs only when the capacative buttons are on. Another member stated that he exchanged his RAZR and his replacement one has the same issue as well. I've looked around and it seems other devices also have this issue as well. Not sure if it's just a design flaw or defect.
@Dusanzk you might actually have a defective unit if that's the case, cause some people were complaining about a green tint on the phone. My blacks and black, why whites are white, I have no problem with colors at all. Just that bleeding ;(.
It's quite hard to notice at first, i only notice in the dark and when the screen is completely black.
I downloaded an app called Burn In Tester, you can adjust the colours on your screen to see what they look like and when i choose black that's when i notice it.
Regarding the green tint, i'm not sure that's the problem i'm having because it's only a problem when something black is showing on screen and it's dark, in all other situations the screen looks amazing, like my Galaxy S 2
Anyone else having this problem with their note? I've noticed in brighter conditions the home button seems a little bit darker on the left half, as though its not lit up. But when I walk into a darker area it looks perfect. Anyone else have this problem? I have a white note. Not sure if that affects anything.
I forgot what review it was, but they talk about the light bleeding in the buttons on the white Note.
Mine light up evenly, there is some bleed around the icons since my note is white.
When I set my capacitive key backlight to "In the dark" they stay lit up as long as the phone is awake regardless of the light level.
I see the bleeding but its not that. In anything but bright light its not noticeable, but in the sun, it looks like the left half isn't lighting up
First things first..
My S6 Edge got scratched by this clear-cover issue. Got a free screen replacement from Samsung. Looks like new now, but! The capacitive buttons light are uneven, the left is brighter than the right, as much so its anoying. No real big issue since I keep them Always off (they fill 0 function since they are dark untill pressed (wonder how samsung thought there? )
Not easier to find them if they are dark until pressed I mean..
Back to topic. Samsung do not care about that, and my store want to send it to service again (h-ll no! I rather keep them off). Would be great if brightness could be individualy set on them, would solve the issue, dim the Bright one down.
Anyone else having this issue? I wonder how far I should push this, I have them off so it really don't matter. but it bothers me to just know it Had Galaxy S2,3,4,5 and now 6. This one has caused me more problem in 1 month, than 2,3,4,5 together in all thoose years...
