Hello,
I was just wondering if this is a hardware error or software error but my screen seems to have a slight yellowish tint, but the very bottom seems more white.

Seems like a hardware problem

I'd guess it's because of glue which is used to hold screen and glass panel together. Probably it haven't dried yet. Wait couple of days and screen should lose it's yellowish tint. If not then RMA the phone.

So I ordered a OPX on 8th Nov and got it on 10th Nov, What an awesome device with brilliant Display !!!!
Then my cousin saw it and wanted on for himself, so I ordered another one for him on 11th and got it on 14th ...
But when I saw compared both the phones, I realized that my OPX's display has a Yellow Tint
So after the Moto X(gen 2), Nexus 5X ... The OPX also has the same problem ...
I wonder what might be the reason behind this and why none of the company ever commented on this issue before ????
I want all of you to check your device and see what type of display you have, so that we may be able to conclude which one is defective, and if a particular batch is affected .
Here is the information of my 2 OPX :
1.
Month and Year of Manufacture: Oct 2015
Month and Year of Import : Nov 2015
QC: 2003D
Date : 2015.10.21
Yellow Display : YES
2.
Month and Year of Manufacture: Oct 2015

Still annoying it being there is the first place tho, it's not meant to be like that. Clearly a defect. Also my QC was 2002N

Blue Tint Display On OnePlus X
Using This phone for about 2 days and just found that the whites on the display are bluish in color or i can say that it has blue tint on display when viewed from different angle . Also found that the Reds are somewhat orangish red in color .
Just wanted to Know that is this is Software problem or i have got a phone with defective display .
Maybe it's your personal taste of colors ? I haveQC2006N
Date 2015.10.24 Screen perfect for me,no blueysh or yellow here

I've read about a slight blue tint when looking at the display from an angle, in several video reviews.
I've came here to rant as well, bought the OPX and have used it for a few days, mine also has the yellow tint issue on the top half of the screen (bottom half is a nice white). It is visible on day to day use which makes it annoying. Would've been able to live with it if the whole display was slightly yellow but the fact that part of it is and part of it isn't bugs me.
I've seen possible solutions like using a hairdryer of leaving it on the car dashboard but this issue is not my fault-I shouldn't have to go through **** to fix it. OnePlus better do something about it or I want my money back.
I've opened a ticket/RMA hopefully they get back to me early next week.
On a side note camera isn't as good as it could be, sd card bug is annoying, battery isn't great. My LG Spirit served me better to be honest.

Yeah, once the kernels implement colour correction it will be fixable.
Think back to Nexus 4, so many people were running different colour profiles lol
I don't know if it's plcaebo or it really happened. I stay in Mumbai which has a hot and humid climate (40degree is normal for us) and went to a cold place with temperature around -5 degree. I noticed that the screen got a yellow tint but it got back to normal once I got to warmer place. Now it could just be my illusion. Could anyone with some knowledge on this opine on this??
How is the screen uniformity on your Note 8 (outside of Adaptive display) I avoided the S8/S8Plus due to the red tints that affected portions of the screen, Ive seen a total of 20 display units for the Note 8 and only 7 had good screens the rest had 'dirty' screens when the display mode was changed to Basic/Amoled Photo, its a combination if either partial red tints or yellowish tints on sections of the screens and the demo units were just installed.
I check the screen with Basic mode, brightness under 50%, fire up chrome and check in landscape, also i use the stock sms app in landscape and i check if its grey background is 100% even from left to right.
I am just curious if Samsung has upped the quality control or its still all about panel lottery ?
EDIT:
Im more interested on feedback that is using Amoled Photo or Basic, as Adaptive mode drowns the screen with a more blue.

My eyes are very sensitive to the red or yellow tints. In Samsung's case red.
My wife's and I note 8 doesn't seem too bad, some red tints around edges depending on veiwing angle but very acceptable.
Mines running basic model also

Adaptive mode here. Absolutely flawless, thankfully. My S8+ had tinted edges but that was fixed by the update they pushed out after adjusting the edges color. My Note8 is hands down the best screen I've ever seen.

When say edges is it on the curved edge or even on the flat part at the top ? as I've noticed most of the red tint is from the top part.
Im also very sensitive to this, other things I have accepted like the grey full screen uniformity on AMOLED is just terrible compared to LCD.
I was hoping that this issue would be fixed. I had an S3 with bad color uniformity issues. My Note 4 is darker along the left edge.
Can't stand the tinting issues that these seem to have. Also dislike brightness uniformity. A lot. I understand that each panel is different from the next, but what is it that causes these issues?
this is why
It's better than my previous note, which was a 4 but still the white isn't as white as some lcd panels out there. I didn't notice any uneven red tint on the N8 either for mine or the wife's. Tilting and viewing and looking out for it I see it a little around the curves of the screen, nothing that concerns me. But there is some red tint in there but not as bad as some note 4 or 3.
Good thing is , there is an adjustment that can be made in the display setting to reduce the red hue should you feel the need. I'm liking it as it is in Reading mode.
My ZTE Zmax whites look better.
Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk
So to summarize, it's relatively uniform but I can still see a pink red crush/hue is present when white is being displayed. Using AMOLED adaptive reduces the red pink hue but looks like trash elsewhere.
So,yes it's still pink. Not much has changed since my Note 3 or 4 days. Then again those were pink or red in parts of the screen. Least the N8 is uniform pink.

I would also like to know the technical reason on whats causing it other than "manufacturing variance" and up until now samsung has not addressed such issues and some customers even struggle to have the devices exchanged.

No, I dont have the resolve to go through that exchanging bull**** anymore, too old for that. Ill either live with it, or send it back .
Last iphone I had owned was the the 3gs and 4s, yellow tint bull**** on those also.
I've had so many iDevices and Macs and never have I seen a screen that I'd even consider good, especially in the area of uniformity. Always darker on one side or the other. Always a bit more yellow here, than there. I've exchanged so many iDevices over the years because of screen issues. Every iPhone release is loaded with crap screens. At least according to all of the threads on various internet forums and groups. That is one of the reasons why I've never tried an iPhone.
FedEx lost my Note 8 and I might just say screw it and stick with the Note 4. My wife's Note 8 has the best screen that I've ever seen on any device with a screen. The brightness is completely uniform. I'd say that it does favor red a bit, but I'd hardly call it pink. Very nice screen.

Indeed, mines not pink like some of the S8 images posted. but there is some hue all over it especially as I normally run "basic" screen mode. Turned the red bar down a little and or use adaptive and makes it ice blue, I can live with it.
Another observation I noticed, if the screen is in Basic mode and I turn on Blue light filter setting, but turn down the bar for the filter to min, the slight pink hue on Basic mode goes away.
Can you adjust the colors independently in all modes or just adaptive display?
Just curious, isn't "warm" supposed be somewhat yellow color in tone ? It seems like when you make the screen warmer it goes pinker.

I have a professionally calibrated workstation display at my office. Whites look like paper and I adjust everything to mimic it.
I was able to get really close by adjusting in adaptive mode.
Problem is with our devices we take them everywhere and the environment changes dramatically, bright, dark, pitch dark, etc.
This plays tricks on our eyes big time! So what may look perfectly fine in one scenario may take on a very blue or very reddish hue in another.
You will drive yourself absolutely crazy trying to adjust all the time!
Like an EQ on a stereo, you adjust contour for flat response and leave it alone! (but most people constantly tweak it!)
Find a reference point and you will be good.
My panel is very consistent.
You want to see a bad display look at the Surface Pro! They may have decent color when calibrated but when the lights go out HOLY BACKLIGHT BLEED!
I am so done with LCD and just want AMOLED on everything NOW!

While what you're saying is generally accurate, that's not what people who have the red tint or purple tint are complaining about. I've seen many amoled screens from Samsung flagships that I consider defective due to extreme hues that can't be "adjusted" to normal. In addition, only adaptive mode can be adjusted, so when the screen is bad, you cannot use any other screen mode without the tint ruining the quality of the display.

Just got the replacement for my first Mate 20 Pro, which suffered from the green screen issue and luckily it's a BOE screen that doesn't have this issue.
However it appears to me that surfaces have a slight sandpaper-like texture to them instead of being smooth (especially noticeable when using gboard or on grey and white areas).
By the way smart resolution is of course turned off, thought at first that this could be the reason.
what do you mean by sandpaper-like ? Is it the feeling of the screen or is it what it looks like to you when you look at green images?

It's nothing you can feel. It's a visible grainy structure especially noticeable on single coloured surfaces. Kinda reminds me of the issues with the pixel 2 back in the days.
I have a BOE display and have looked tirelessly to see if I could notice this and nope it's just not there for me....
I've just had a replacement BOE phone delivered today, can't see any graininess to it, but the screen is not as bright as the LG one. Side by side the BOE whites are noticeably greyer. Suppose its a trade off, greyer screen vs green bleed

Strangest thing, I checked last night the white on BOE seems definitely more greyish but this morning in the sunlight its the other way round. Maybe I'm just being too picky. If I didn't have the next to each other to compare I would never had notice the difference. My wife has the same phone and her screen seems to be a different shade on the white too.
I think I would keep the BOE if I have to choose. I always think about the resale

My screen is BOE and what I can note in comparation with my S9 is that in the Mate i can see the digitalizer... in the S9 no...
Sometimes if I try to see it very hard...i can see little points from the digitalizer.
don´t know if in the LG screen is the same thing...
But my screen is brighter then my S9. Colors are very good too and resolution...
but i definitely can see the digitalizer..
Some comparations between bu Samsung S9 and the BOE screen of Mate:
So i swapped my first device kinda wish i hadent as the screen was great.
New device has green tint anything below 10% (this i can just about live with as i just raise brightness). However i recently noticed in direct sunlight yesterday that i can barely see screen and it tints purple (yes i have adaptive brightness on)
Now something really strange in bright sunlight when a shadow casts across a white screen , the shadow against screen is green has anyone else noticed this ......?
.
hard to capture properly as spare phone is an old iphone but the green shadow is from my hand which can be observed above , also notice how the white tints to purple.

Well the green tint below 10% i don't experience with my phone.
The other notion/complaint, is just natural properties of an OLED panel, all my previous phones had the purple in sunlight tint.
probably the brighter sunlight reflecting in one of the physical layers of the panel. Nothing you can get rid off unless you want LCD.

Just got new phone July batch , first impressions are a lot less green tint ..... thank god June panel was a joke July panel I think its still there just a lot less this time ... will see later this evening and post picture back.
black bar across top i can see but not to bothered about this in all honesty.
Colours have to admit whites are cleaner as a result but rest look to be calibrated identical to last panel.
I think my first panel dated May was the best colours just seemed to wow instantly , everyone who saw phone commented on display in a positive manner.

Here, this is how mine looks like at min brightness: green tint and horizontal bar

Might that be because your device is prior to May on build?
I think it’s pointless replacing now I’ve had three models and it seems inherent now from my own experiences.
Do you use dark mode?
Sorry for the questions just trying to get some feedback
I’m only speculating but my latest device also has it my only device which didn’t have it was built in May , I’m wondering if the early batches had good panels for reviews etc and they cheaped out after that to bring production costs down (speculation as I say) but seen this before with other companies.
One thing I’ve noticed on my latest device is it goes a lot brighter than my previous June model. I’m thinking if I want to keep this device, I’m going to have use light mode which is a shame, if we had root we could just black out all the grey parts like status bar notifications etc and mask issue.

yep, seems so.. a lottery
the thing is that I can see this issue only at very low brightness, somewhere below ~15%
and in everyday use the display is perfect (I anyway always use light theme)
but then again it bothers me knowing it is there
on the fence now:
send the Oppo back (already have return label) and try luck again with OP8 Pro (order placed, should be dispatched tomorrow; I sent back my first OP 8 for a refund due to same display issues)
or just live with it, keep Oppo and cancel OP 8 order...

Hey guys,
I havent seen a thread related to display issues. In 2 german Forums I found threads about various issues. From Color fade, to overall greenish tint or flickering screens.
Sadly I am very picky with display stuff and my Display isnt perfect either. I mostly use relatively low brigthness settings (around 30-40%) and on dark mode especially the settings menu has a color fade from dark grey to dark blue. This cant be seen on any other color.
Its easy to see in a dark room, the brighter the room the lesser you will notice.
To easier check: use telegram, with its blueish theme its definitely way stronger fading there...
For a phone thats 649€ in germany thats unacceptable for me. My P5 has a slight warmish but perfectly even colored display and thats what I expect from a P6.
What about you? Can anyone check their display if thats a common issue?
Hi,
i have the same issue, also a device from germany.
Even when booting when everything is white, I always have multiple changes between white and blue in the display.
I'm at work, I try to take a picture when I get home.
Please do, Id really be intersted. Sadly we cant do anything about it...
Anybody have the green ish tint on a black screen issue? Seen a few of those floating around as well...
Similar issues with my screen, also from Germany.
My first OLED screen had been with the Galaxy Note 1 and I hated it for its issues. Always bought devices with LCD screens afterwards.
The Pixel 6 is my first OLED phone since and it is having pretty much the same issues my Note had 10 years ago
Great phone so far (Android is still a bit buggy), but the display is quite a disappointment for me personally, at least for brightness levels below ~50%...
Is it just me or are most of these issues regarding the display coming from Germany? Please can people state what country the device was purchased from if they have this issue
Wow @Abnovitas thats really really bad. Sadly till now everyone seems to be from Germany...
I just finished chatting with Google's support.
They are going to replace the phone, but I'm still waiting for their email with instructions.
But first they walked me through some superficial settings (disabling Dark Mode and some accessibility stuff, like Color Inversion...) and then tried to talk it off as a normal property of OLED displays, which I didn't accept to this extent. But hey, that's probably just Google's policy.
Let's see if this was just bad luck in the OLED lottery.
For me its too difficult to take a picture with dark screen. The color change is slightly less than the picture from @man1acc
But i have problems with white color, it is light grey and i have green stripes on white, this is also very very difficult to make a picture.
Here you can see it a bit, but in real life it is much stronger
This is how my display looks like. Quite disappointing, Google has the same problems for years. But the phone itself is very well built, so maybe I will keep it. Bought the phone in Germany.
I have some rainbow effect which is mostly noticeable on white backgrounds. Hard to capture but found it is quite noticeable with an external light source. In this case my monitor. Anyone else have this or more importantly for a RMA, don't have it?
Pixel 6 when on a black background the right side of the display has a green tint shadow effect kinda worrying as it's not present on the left side and seems to only appear on darker backgrounds like when pull notification tab down or in a app (like xda) with black background very noticeable , or is this just standard now for Oled displays it's not the first phone I've noticed this over the years just curious if any pixel 6 owners see similar or should I get it exchange ? Added pic not sure if shows that well though

Not normal. Each pixel is controlled individually.
It maybe hardware or firmware.
Sounds like the display control matrix wasn't designed properly or is defective.
Your screenshot isn't showing it so neither should the display!

Unfortunately not true. If it's an issue with the display, a screenshot should never show it. But it can be visible when a picture of it is taken.
My Pixel 6 (right) was bought first day from the Google Store. I'm in the USA. It has a very strong dirty red tint at the bottom and a garish green at the top. Easily visible at 60-70% brightness and lower. Here it is compared to my Pixel 4a (left), shot on my 3a. Haven't had uniformity issues this bad since my OG Pixel (which got replaced).
Waited to chat with a support rep for an hour, chatted for another hour, and have an RMA device ordered and on the way.
Maybe are cross to dark side lol
That was a joke id never cross to the dark side lol and tint only seems visible when in certain dark mode apps and not actually navigating around the phone xda app is worse lol so don't think hardware issue tbh

Lol, read what I said again
At any rate... that's a dud.
Just for giggles and kicks, see if lowering the refresh rate effects that.

My bad too, it wasn't worded as concise as it could have been.
who of you all has the problem with the green rainbow effect on a white background?
