Hi,
I recently got the Xperia Z2 Black and I noticed when I look at the phone directly without tilting there is a reddish tint on the bottom. When I tilt the phone slightly it go away. However, the way I use my phone is to put it directly (no tilt) when using it.
Is that normal? I read here that there are some Z2 that have gap or overheating but I have non of those. I recorded 4K video for 16 minute and nothing happened. I turned it off as my hand got tired.
Do you think I should return it?
Thanks.
PS: The red tint is not very extreme but it is very noticeable in white background. I used the white balance to reduce it but it's still there.
I think you should return it.

Hello,
I recently purchased Xperia tablet Z, and I have been observing difference in brightness of screen as top of the screen(near SONY logo) is brighter than bottom portion which is a little bit hazy and dull as compared to top of screen.(I am still on 4.1.2, dont want to upgrade as placement of soft buttons has been shifted in middle than left corner)
Upon contacting Xperia care and they asked download Xperia™ Diagnostics and run Display test.
When the Screen is white for 10 seconds this difference becomes more visible and prominent.
Can anybody confirm is it observable in all units or its just my unit that is faulty :crying: .

I think I saw your question over on the Sony support forum -- here's my answer:
I may have a related issue; the "top" quarter-inch or so my screen is barely dimmer than the rest of the display. Like your device, this is only noticeable on white or evenly colored screens when holding the table in portrait orientation. My first Xperia Tablet Z had this issue, I exchanged it, and the second one had the same exact issue. I'm otherwise happy with the device and since this is only really noticable under specific conditions I've decided to accept it ...
Same on mine... I had it sent to service but they said that its not faulty...

Hello,
I see strange "rainbow" colors on my phone's screen - especially red and blue, when displaying pure white background with full brightness. The color bars are moving up and down, when I'm angling phone. It's not bothering me when displaying photos or something with many colors, but it's annoying when reading a page with pure white background.
I'm attaching some photos. Do you have the same issue? Is it a cause for warranty replacement?
Not having this type of issue.First Clean your screen with a cloth and if it doesnt work ask Flipkart for Replacement
Don't worry dude. It's a low-quality-screen-thingy. Even without white screen try turning your mobile at different angles. Colours subdue. It's to be expected at such a low cost. For this baby, look at the screen only straight-on. Anywhere else and colours blanch.

@Srinadh - Unfortunately cleaning doesn't help. I buyed my phone from European distribution - do you mean that Flipkart is responsible for all devices or you though that I buyed it directly from Flipkart?
@loneagl - The problem is, these bars are visible even when looking straight at the screen. Do you have this issue too?
I thought that you bought directly from Flipkart... and Flipkart is responsible only for Indian Moto E's

Note: The title say Z but it's actually Z2.

Of course, you have to return it. If you do not you'll regret in the future

Well, do you have any red tint on the bottom half of your screen?

I returned the phone for replacement and waiting for it.
Hopefully I will not get any of the overheating problems or the gap problems as my old one didnt have any of those.
Thanks.

I just purchased a new Xperia Z2 (D6503), everything worked fine.
But I noticed there is a tiny bright light/spot looks like this "-", about 1-2 mm long, located at the left corner of the bottom bezel (which is all black) on the front screen. It is most noticeable when the screen is on. When the screen is off, this tiny light is also off, just looks grey.
I wondered what this light is for , and found no results in the user manual. I searched Z2 phone pictures online and all the bottom bezel on those phone looked whole black without any light. So i'm worried if my screen is defective.
Please help me check if you have the same light on the bottom left corner of the bezel.
Thank you!

I'm new to this phone too, but I don't have anything like you describe. I think you may have a faulty device.
Maybe damaged pixel? Not sure, but I'm sure it is faulty hardware, take it to Sony for warranty repairs.

Is it on the display or off the display?
That wasnt clear to me?

off the display , in the black bezel region at the bottom of the front of the phone.
It is most likely a manufacturing defect where the the bezel was scratched on the back side. This causes light from the backlight to bleed through the glass when the display is turned on. Sorry OP, maybe try to exchange it?
I received my X F5121 two days ago, and as soon as I turned it on, I could notice a white horizontal spot a bit up from the centre of the display. You can notice it more when on a white blank page and with brightness a bit up.
I also found (more on white pages) that pushing the back cover of the phone would affect the screen with distorted colors and looks like (in my opinion) the glass is not properly installed on the device.
Am I the only one with this problems?
Let me know what you think...
This is from diagnostics.

Is it like a white patch whether its a white screen, or a light color like beige background, like something is being pushed against a lcd screen, or a light bleed.
I had something like that, not sure if it was when I purchased the phone, but I only noticed it after a few months of using it, I took it a xperia service center and had the whole screen, including the phones outer frame body changed, not sure if the center was too lazy to change just the screen, but im happy with it now.
You should get sony to sort it out, or if you still have a return period for exchange/refund.
