Yep. They'll, at free of cost! :good:
Hello. Sorry for your device. Could you post an image of the bad display part? Thanks.
You cant really see it in a picture but i can see the dots while using some apps its really annoying and on a dark image there are many of them
I also got a faulty phone with dead pixels all over the screen than i got a replacement from flipkart which also had a faulty display with a big white spot in the middle of the screen but than i got it replaced by service centre free of cost. But one thing i can tell is that many redmi note 4 phones have the same dead pixels problem as i have seen many people with faulty screen around me. Xiaomi is not having tight quality control.
Hmm.. Let me tell you my story and what I came up with after a small research.
So I had got my Note 4 (4/64GB Variant) in February this year. Right after a week or two, I noticed some stuck pixels. Initially they were just one or two, but then they started expanding and scattered all over the screen. I can't even tell you how ugly the screen had started to look, it had more than around 50 stuck pixels all over the screen.?? It broke my heart and I desperately wanted to get a replacement. I then started to notice some of friends' Note 4 and coincidentally, they all had some one or two stuck pixels. Then I came to a conclusion that the Redmi Note 4 has a serious quality control issue with almost 85% of defective phones. Now, just a week ago, after a lot of research, I went to an authorized service center. (Thanks to Xiaomi, we now have 500 centres in India). I noticed their reactions when I disclosed my issue to them, they were quite ok with the problem and told me to wait for 2 hours. Now, from their reactions, it was 100% confirmed that its a common issue in Note 4 and many people have got a replacement.
So, without any hassle, they replaced the screen, but took 2 hours extra, but it was ok considering the usual croud at Mi service centres we see.
The replaced screen works flawlessly and the next thing I noticed that its now a Tianma display.
So, wrapping up the whole story, I'd conclude as:
1. The Note 4 manufactured in the Indian factories use a defective NT335 display and has issues with 85% of their production.
2. The service centres always have the stock of only and only Tianma displays.
3. You can get the screen replaced quite easily as its a very very common issue with the Note 4. Just remember to carry a copy of your invoice to claim warranty.

i used a redmi note 4 with tianma display it had that text blur issue on scroll. I want the display model which came with the phone. The other redmi note 4 that is in my house has the same model display as mine and has been around for a while now and has no dead pixles while mine has had them since the beginning. I was really shocked after seeing this.In february when i got a chance to use a note 4 i noticed stuck /dead pixels on it so i thought its a issue with all but seeing newer phones with fine display is really shocking for me

I love my dear Rezound, as it has helped me so many times, and maybe might've even saved my life at one point. I am the only 1 out of 5 lines who is not tied down to a contract and does not have a Samsung Galaxy S III or Note 2, because I love this phone that much. But the problem is, after 6-7 months after I got it, it fell down on the concrete sidewalk and cracked the screen. It was only two really small hairline cracks, so I didn't think anything of it, only the occasional annoyance that I dropped it whenever I watched a YT video. I was fooling around with a bunch of my friends, and it fell out of my pocket, now the screen's broken to the point where if I touch it, I can sort of like...feel the screen being pushed down. The touch screen still works, and I'm planning to get it replaced at a local mall sometime this month. So I was wondering...if the store rips me off and uses just a cheap screen, will the display be bad? Will I not get that same, cool, color as I did when it wasn't broken?
TL;DR if a store that fixes phones uses a low quality screen, will the colors not be the same as it was before?

it depends on the service at the store. If they charged less than $50 to replace it. 9 times out of 10 it was just the glass.
if it was more. then they did replace the lcd. A lot of the times they will buy OEM but you do have the off chance of getting a China knock off.
tl:dr it is quite possibly they did replace with a bad lcd. Most places offer a warranty on it so i would go talk to them.
If just the digitizer is cracked and not the LCD, then they should just replace the digitizer and all the colors and richness will remain. The only Rusk is dead spots on the touch screen which if its a reputable store should have some kind of warranty I would think.

I have horrifically bad screen burn that occurs after minutes, even seconds of bright objects being on the screen. It seems it only became this severe after 2-3 months of having my LG G5. It would be mostly tolerable during the day, but I primarily use my phone after I'm off work at midnight - dim light and lower phone settings make the screen burn even more aggressive in appearance.
Furthermore, I've had backlight bleeding on the top edge and bottom right corner, along with slight bright patches since day 1. This past week I also picked up a Cardboard VR headset only to find I have a dead pixel smack in the center of view on bright scenes, and more than a dozen bright pixels on black backgrounds (several are the super-bright green subpixels.)
Any one of these display issues I could've tolerated, but together it's grown outrageous. I also have faulty GPS and a loose chin connection on the bottom right. This is a Sprint G5 LS992 with a production date of January 25, 2017... so a late model certainly isn't a guarantee of better quality hardware - not for me at least.
Guys, just send it on warranty, they'll replace your entire screen (so it's a good way to loose scratches of your screen-they replace the whole panel, LCD and glass combined). Mine got replaced after 6 months of use and now after 5 with new screen I don't have any problems with it.

Unfortunately I don't believe that is even an option for me any more.
I got this G5 as an "upgrade" for a G Flex 2 that LGE Alabama at one point claimed would take 2.5 to 3 months to repair (not "7-10 business days" as the RMA email stated.) After several hours of calls and complaints online, I thought I had a satisfactory resolution 2 months after sending my phone in.
Then all of the issues in my last post started popping up.
Normally a phone is covered 1 year from date of manufacture (again, mine is January 25, 2017 making it only 5 months old) BUT both my service paperwork and the LGE representative on phone said I am only warranted 90 days after receiving the G5 in March; noting here that my G Flex 2 had no hardware defects - only hardbricked firmware on accident due to LG Anti-Rollback.
I feel now that I was purposely screwed over with a rushed, refurbished-yet-still-defective unit by LGE Alabama. I already fed them cash for the G Flex 2 being an Out-Of-Warranty repair job - I don't want to double down my losses paying them again in less than half a year.
So did LG say something about this issue ? They know thousands of people are having this problem .. didn't they say anything atleast

It's been a month from the official release of the Huawei flagship. A month that is marked by these disturbing faults to the display unit, fingerprint or face unlock.
The above issues are have been clearly reported to the initial batches of September and October.
It should be really useful if we could register all defects noted in devices from November batch and on.
Please state the manufacturing date of the device if this is from November and on, how many days you have used your device and what defect - if any - you have spotted.
I kindly request you don't make any other comment.
BOE 18B05. Have only had it since today at 11am. Direct replacement from Huawei.
BOE 18B05. No problems whatsoever.
boe 18b08 no issues
LG - 18B09
Got the issue on day one of my exchange from Vodafone, 22nd Nov.
BOE 18B05 which I've had for about 12 days now. Screen still hulk free.
you've mentioned batches grouped by month?
Presumably that is a reference to shipping batches which isn't necessarily the same thing as a build month/batch which is what you need to be accurate as a carrier could be sitting on "old" stock and only just shipping it
I got one direct from Huawei. Its a L29c model sn 18b08 boe screen, so far so good
Before that I had to LG screen in a L09 model so not sure why Huawei swapped it.
LG screen 18B09 Vodafone UK with hulk screen.
BOE 18B05, no problems for 1 week now.
First phone was early LG one, just got replacement from VF UK with serial 18B05 and BOE screen, so far so good.
I have an 18B09 from UK O2 - screen is BOE with no issues...
However the actual screen being scratched is ridiculous. I had nothing on my previous devices, however this BOE specific one is scratching all over the front screen. It's in a bad state after only a few days - not sure how either....

I noticed this on some of the store demo units. The excuse in the shop was always "well they get a lot of abuse", but these were devices that had only been on display for a few days.

I had my previous iPhone for around 3 years and there weren't scratches like this. Even my previous Mate 20 Pros with the LG screens were fine over the 4 or so weeks I had them.

The OLED panel shouldn't have any bearing on scratch resistance, since the glass panel is likely a separate component common to both panel variants. My GS5 is still scratch-free after 4 years. The pitiful lack of RAM running current apps, on the other hand.....
18A31,BOE screen,no issues after 1 week of use.
BOE screen 18A26 second replacement phone from Three UK. So far so good two weeks of use.

Did you get the replacement for a different model?
First day was no problem with screen, saw it was LG... was a bit worried but my batch number didn't match to anyone who had the issue that I could find and BAM today... green screen of hell. ****ing hulk in matter of hours. Returning tomorrow and choosing different brand, from instagram + snapchat problems to camera having poor software but good hardware and now gluegate, there is no reasons phones with faulty screens are still being sold and people have to change 3-4 times to get a BOE one. Shame on Huawei.

Had an 18B02 LG, worst I've had yet. Green discolouration around all edges and glow leaking up the bottom half of the screen.
I'm thinking of buying the (international version 128 GB version) F1 but the process would including importing it which means no warranty. I'm worried if there's any sort of QC issues that I need to aware of because returning or even replacing it would be quite difficult. I got the redmi Note 3 back in the day and 3 months later the MOBO failed. I returned it for a redmi note 4 which also failed because of QC issues less than a year in so I don't have much faith in Xioami's productions quality. I've also seen that the screen failed every drop test it went through. is a case and protector that much needed or can I get away with a Dbrand skin? I'm coming from the HTC M8 so idk how durable blastic phones are.

Screen bleeding check and audio quality check
I have used redmi 1s for 4 years with original battery and everything. I have use redmi note 3 for 2 full years. Didnt had a single issue. Poco f1 is a very good choice for its price i would say. Screen is not good. But not bad. Its ok. Camera is best in this price range. If you want a performance phone with some compromises than its best phone in market. If you can wait. Wait for poco f2
Hello!
I've read that there are two display manufacturers tianma and huaxing So which is the better one and how can I tell before buying the device?
From what ive read from a 9s/pro facebook group, most of the screen bleeding issues is with huaxing panel. I personally have tianma display, it has no bleeding and retention (as of now) but it does have some shadowing around the notch. And you cant tell what display you will have have unless you opened and checked it through engineering mode, its most likely a lottery really.
How exactly can I check which panel my phone have?
Checking the LCD manufacturer:
https://all-spares.com/en/articles-and-video/how-to-check-the-lcd-vendor-in-xiaomi-smartphones.html
...but Redmi Note 9 Pro is not showing the LCD manufacturer there.
I have huaxing panel with no issues. There's no bleeding even if I put my screen on black. But thanks for asking!
My phone has a huaxing screen too, and I have no issues.
Sometimes I have the feeling people are SEARCHING for something the can hate on a phone...

Better to know it beforehand than to cry about it later.
If only your display misbehaves, you'd feel the real pain of getting a faulty display of previous Redmi and Poco F1 owners :crying:
My Redmi Note 7 had Tianma panel and it was really bad... Keyboard with lag and a lot of screen retention/burn. Now my Redmi Note 9 Pro (max, 6/64, 64 megapixels) have Huaxing and that problems are not present, by the moment.
But in YouTube you can see many videos with redmi Note 9 pro speaking about burn ins, ghost touches, etc. Typical tianma disease. For now maybe not many (?) users get this problems, but how these screens behave over time? Is screen from Indian unit (9 pro) different then from global (9s)? I can see more Indians completing. And trust me, they don't complain without good reason
I have one week to decide either to buy this phone or not. I would really like to believe that everything will be fine etc, but I've almost lost the hope
