Hi,
My RN3P is just 2 weeks old. Yesterday found a bad pixel on the screen. It looks to be 2 pixels in a group. And it's visible on light background, and bad pixels has white light.
What kind of pixel issue is it? Hot/dead? Any change for warranty exchange?

Yes i had this issue one White dead/Stuck pixel, went to the service center and it took two weeks to replace the display here....
Same told here in my country. At least 2 weeks, without phone.
Unfortunately sold all the previous and backup phones..
There's one workaround: use only dark themes. Haha
(of course just joking, it's a bit annoying issue)

I thought I was in the clear with prime issues as I had none for over 3 months but I just noticed today I have 1 dead pixel (( its only noticble in whiteish backgrounds but its really annoying and I can't send it back cuz I've had it since the beginning of January. I can't even see it in non white backgrounds though. Is it even possible to fix this because it just happened today? Also by serial number starts with b not c so its one of the early models

There are a couple of apps in Google Play that might help. They play a pattern of shifting colors repeatedly over either the entire screen or a small area. This can sometimes help, although I think it's more common for stuck pixels (i.e., those stuck showing a single color) to be fixed compared to dead pixels.

I second this! Pixel Fixer on the market did the trick for a stuck pixel I had on mine.
Well the pixel only shows as the colour white. also pixel fixer didnt work
Are you sure it isn't LCD mura and not a dead pixel? Do a quick search for LCD mura and you'll see what I'm talking about. I have LCD mura, which is only visible on white backgrounds, and it appeared after a few months of ownership.

Well i dont think its lcd mura. Its a pixel upon whiteish backgrounds that shows up contrastingly to the white. Under other colours, its very hard to notice but it is still there

Man! I noticed the very same thing while on holiday last week. Couldn't believe it.
My Prime had 3 dead pixels out of the box. It's a C3 and other then the pixels the device functions flawlessly...I'll probably just wait and see if anything else goes wrong as I don't plan on unlocking the bootloader anytime soon.
Got mine right before the year end or around that time, one of the first models. Just noticed today that it has some stuck pixels, a few in a spot somehow. Trying some pixel fix apps, but it might be stuck. Damnit, need to RMA already? It's 3-4 months old...this is why I didn't want to unlock the bootloader yet. Asus quality, I've done nothing to the tablet to make this happen, yet if I had the unlocked bootloader they would have blamed me and probably not fix it since it has a void warranty. Even though it seems like a hardware defect. Stupid.

I also have a similar issue with mine, 3 bright pixels that only show against white backgrounds. I am waiting till they get these devices more stable before RMA, which everybody should be able to do even if you get it in January, since it is covered under the hardware warranty.
Has anyone found dead pixels on their Z2 got mine Saturday and already had it replaced once for this issue and the replacement has the same problem
Cant find any dead pixels on mine. Come to think of it i always got lucky with stuff like that. Not a single dead pixel on any device i ever had.
2, one really noticeable, one is faded
Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk
Sony warranty states that 2 dead pixels are acceptable. Fortunately, my Z2 has none.
I've sent mine back for a replacement with one dead pixel and overheating issue. Bought it last Friday, already gone
I found one dead pixel on mine, but I'm ignoring it for now.
OK. I have one stuck green pixel on the top right. Is this a common thing with xperias? Does anything actually work to fix them? My phone is ULB so I can't get it replaced.

Try display tester pro. No guarantee but worth the try
I had a Z replaced at least a dozen times due to dead pixels, eventually got a Z1 which had none but now it looks like Sony is plagued by them back with the z2
I've tried a few apps to fix it. Its only barely visible when on full brightness with a black background when its close to my eyes. No biggie.
Is this pretty common with Sony Xperias?

Every phone manufacturer suffers from these problems not just sony, I remember it was a common problem with the nexus 5 when it got released, if it's only 1 dead pixel then it should be much of a problem, besides I have heard you need at least 3 dead pixels to get a replacement
do you guys check for dead pixels with a magnifier? As now with these high dpi screens it's pretty hard to identify "one" dead pixel to me... maybe mine has but i don't think i can notice it without a magnifier lol
I only noticed it on the black screen in the dark. It doesn't bother me, it's only one pixel.

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.

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

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

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.

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??
I have ordered 2 redmi note 3 32 gb gold one from mi last month and 2nd from amazon 10 days ago.
1st phone showing white disply its ok but 2nd phone showing slightly yellowish disply..
anybody facing same problem?should i replace the phone? or its commen? See the images..
Have you tried disabling automatic contrast (i.e. setting contrast to "standard") on both phones and comparing again? The only other think I can think of is maybe there is more than one manufacturer for the screens and this might be normal?
mine also yellowish

There's another thread on the miui forums pretty identical to this. As the others have said, it's due to the display provider, none of your units is faulty. Most of us have the colder looking display. You can send back the other unit if it's really an issue for you.
Recently I replaced my screen and the new one had a terrible yellowish tint compared to the older one. It was like the phone was on night mode all the time and the white colours where more like yellow than white. I tried to mess with colours in kernel adiutor and by reducing the green value things got a little better, not like the old screen but colours where bearable. Today I took the decision to move from miui to cm and when I booted to twrp colours seemed very normal but I thought that maybe it was in my imagination. But after flashing and booting in cm I see now that colours are perfectly normal like my old screen. So I'm starting to think that the yellowish tint has more to do about miui's settings than the different screen models. Maybe whoever has that yellow tint could try to switch to cm and if the problem does not exitst any more it is definitely a miui problem.

UPDATE:
OK, now it's a widespread issue.
It looks like it could be the glue drying or something else.
Because the issue appears after some days of usage.
Btw, I've returned my phone
-------------------------
I bought the Mate 20 Pro the 18th of October, at first the display looked fine but it's been some days already that I'm noticing a yellow/green tint on the right side of the display that reminds me so much to the problem that happened with the Nexus 4 (it was because of the glue [https://www.pocketables.com/images/....com/images/2012/12/nexus-4-yellow-screen.jpg) ).
And it's getting worse.
It's not just me, another user on XDA and another user on Reddit also said that are having the same issue.
If it's the glue, even if you don't notice the issue right now on your device, it might appear in the next days, as it happened to me.
These are my pictures:

What do you think?
I'll go and return my phone for another one this Monday. And if the new one has the same problem I'll ask for a refund
UPDATE:
More things I've noticed:
After playing a burn in fix video, the way that this issue looks is different, it changes.
Here I took some pictures of the display with a black background:
https://imgur.com/a/RVscvY9
NEWEST UPDATE:
There seem to be two different issues, or maybe one. Maybe it's related with the display controller

Then it will probably be the glue
if its glue, its a manufacture faulty batch (lets hope). This even happened years ago with Samsung phones due to poor QA (and for Samsung that's huge).
While highly unlikely, if you happen to find its software related or to do with w/display driver, post it in the EMUI/software problem/fault thread so you can let others know. Also, be sure to get in touch with Huawei and keep us posted on your results.
EDIT 1/11: From what I can read on the first 30-40 pages its moistly screens with LG and not BOE. Its in multiple regions, so let's way a few more weeks and see if the newer BOE batches or wave 2 of the shipments fixes the issue...

I have similar problem. The brighter shade can be visible on both sides ( on the right side little bit more expressive) and at notch edges. I'm returning phone tommorow . Sucha a shame :/
I have the same problems
Following this. I also have the same issue. Not sure though if it's to do with the screen refractions on the curved glass. Will wait to see what happens with others. What apps are people using to test?

I thought that. I've never had a curved like this. I put a black wallpaper on and it's fine. Put a colour one on and you see it
A great way to tell is if you have a white chrome window and then pull the notification shade down it shows all around the notch. I think it's something to do with greys on low light levels?
Yeah greys at low light seem to vary in colour a little, if it's really bad keep swapping the phone. I had to change my Nexus 6P made by Huawei 3 times before I got a good screen. Mine is slightly lighter on the bottom third but it's hardly noticeable so I'm going to stick with it.
