Ok so here's my dilemma. I've had an LG screen for the past 3 weeks and it has a slight green tinge to it which can only really be seen if I sit in a dark room and turn the display grey and screen to low. In all other aspects I'm happy with it. I have also just bough a Mate 20 Pro with a BOE screen, this doesn't have any of the green to it and seems fine, just not as vivid and the white can appear slightly grey in some lights. I've also started to read on here about the screen scratching more easily and battery drain. Also that the BOE is not as good quality as the LG.
What do I do? Keep the LG or go for the BOE. Has anyone else had a problem after swapping and wished they'd stayed with the LG?
Go for BOE. LG screen is abit blueish, abit too vivid. I did the comparision between many devices included iPhone X, Xs Max, Note 9, M20P LG and M20P BOE. I'm happy with BOE right now!
BOE vs IPX vs LG

Keep the BOE. Battery is exactly the same. I went through 6 LG screen's and every one had problems.
Stay with BOE, I had LG screen and gave it a shot even after having green tint all around the screen, with time green tint got worse. I tried to adjust the colours on phone but still, the screen was just too bad (was gutted when I showed it to my friends and they were like wtf is this? you spent this much to have this?). Finally gave up and got it replaced, so happy with BOE only problem I have with BOE is Black isn't completely black. I don't know I just feel that LG screen had got black on them nice and dark compared to BOE. Battery seems to be fine.
Another problem I had on LG screen was quality, I had the phone in my pocket with keys and i kid you not it got nicks and chips on the screen. My old oneplus 3t never had problems with keys, I was surprised with screen quality.
Display boe
Hello everyone I noticed that my display buo with the screen under the sun shadows of the. Instead of being normal, fingers have a light green Phosphorescent effect while on an LG display they are normal

Hello everyone,
I noticed that at night when I have a black background i can see dark spots that make you notice the color is not uniform.
This defect occurs when all these conditions are verified:
- Completely dark room and eyes accustomed to the darkness for a few minutes
- Completely black screen (like the one in the test screen by typing *#0*#)
- Minimum brightness (but can be seen even at maximum brightness).
In practice, you see lots of little dots of different sizes and shapes, always black as the background, but not the rest of the uniform color (as if they were the signs of glue that is below).
During the day with light are virtually invisible, at night using it would not normally notice, but as soon as the screen remains black for a few seconds (for example when loading a video from youtube), here they are appearing and are really annoying.
I got my phone last week, I would still be time to ask to replace it, but I'm afraid it's a problem of all devices and maybe even put the risk of receiving a worse one (with dead pixels, circles on the screen, etc.).
Someone else has ever noticed these spots? If you have not noticed could you do a test under the conditions that I outlined above?
To understand whether it is a problem of all (in which case I would avoid to let me change) or just mine.
I still have 2 days to apply for replacement, thanks!!
P.S: sorry for my bad english
Same on mine, and a lot of them... not really visible that much only with blank black screen... and sincerely when do you use your phone with nothing on the display ?
Im pretty sure those are manufacturing imperfections in the amoled production process and we cant do anything about it, im pretty sure all phones have it to some extent.
Same here... I think that its bet to just get used to it, that what i did anyway..

Yes, I have the same problem too! Just got the white version of this phone. I also noticed that mine looks like there's a small fingerprint smudge underneath the glass. These don't bother me, but what really bugs me is this faint faded line that runs up and down the screen. It looks like burn-in or something. I can't see it unless I'm playing a certain video with gray backgrounds. Should I swap it out or keep it? The one I have now has no dead pixels, but I'm afraid the new one would...
Hmmm so we all have this problem, any other witness?
Yeah same thing i was thinking im only one
/problem with all oled screens
same with mine..its a flaw by samsung. unequal distribution of glue to stick the glass and capacitive layer
Same here ...
At first I was a bit worried because I also have an LG Optimus SOL E730 with amoled, and it does not suffer from this problem.
So, the only thing that comes to my mind, is that samsung did a crappy job on this phone.
One more thing: When the screen is black, the LG appears as if it's turned off, the Samsung, on the other hand, is a little lit.

Please refer to the picture below. Do you spot any abnormalities with my SAMOLED+ display? The yellow tint is gone after flashing to 2.3.5, but the area in the lower left is still showing a lighter tone--like a right triangle; so does a small area on the upper left. Also, the brightness (as I've noticed in other S2's) is not evenly distributed across the screen. These problems are hardly visible in normal use, but it becomes visible in grey backgrounds, and notifications area, and lowest brightness in web browser. Please let me know, thanks.

so, what do you all think? Please let me know thank you.
Mine looks exactly like that: triangle in bottom left, splotch in top right, and whole left seems a little dimmer than the rest. I haven't installed any updates & bought mine in South Africa; where did you get yours? I was honestly under the impression that AMOLED was the technology to go for, but now I'm not so sure anymore.
At first I was going to ignore the lighting defects and the pink tint in the center of camera images as there aren't that severe, but now I've found my phone's earpiece probably has a problem too. It makes a crackly noise during calls that sounds like something's loose in the speaker, so I reckon it's time to send this one back...
Update: I got mine replaced today due to the speaker problem, and the new one has neither the triangle nor the splotch. It is still darker down the left side of the screen though, maybe even a bit more so than on the old one...
I had exactly the same issues (well, not exactly as mine were worse). I had to replace it twice. Now I have one without this issues, no yellowish border and little to no banding.
The guys at the service told me that if there is any problem now, I can get a new phone right away, but considering how many people have display problems, I would rather repair this one. It's display is suspiciously perfect...

Just walked into a corporate store to check this thing out and get a feel for it, see if its worth leaving a GS III. Everything about it seems legit, except the screen set to full brightness still seemed too dim. Might just be the AMOLED screens spoiling my eyes for the last 2 years, but just wanted some comments from owners who have been able to take this thing outside.
So how is the brightness for you guys? Is it still fairly viewable in sunlight? Please no discussions about color clarity/saturation. I know it doesn't hold a candle to reproducing vibrant colors like OLED does.
I went out in full daylight and could see perfectly clear. First time ever on a smartphone that I've never had to cup my hands around the screen to see
Sent from my Droid DNA. 1080p never looked so sweet
Awesome. I was initially concerned with it being LCD, but I remember reading on a few sites that the superiority in SLCD3 was its manufacturing quality and clarity. I guess that coupled with the display being bonded better and closer to the surface translates into better visibility. Thanks for responding.
It is interesting to hear others review on this screen.
Since the major reason I did not buy galaxy 3 or note is AMOLED screen really looks dime even max brightess is only equel to my htc one x 's 50% brightness level which I can not accept.
It's a beautiful sunny day in Los Angeles.
Walked outside.
Had no issue seeing the screen contents.

We decided to pit the Droid DNA against the iPhone 5, Nexus 4, HTC One X, and Samsung Galaxy S III (from left to right it's the iPhone, Nexus 4, Droid DNA, One X, and Galaxy S III). All screens were turned up to maximum brightness, as can be seen in the photo above. The first thing you'll note is that the Droid DNA isn't the brightest by a long shot; that title still belongs to the iPhone 5, followed by the One X (though the One X seems brighter because there are simply more pixels in total). Disappointing? Yes, though it's still plenty bright enough to be visible in daylight.

The displays on the One X+ and 8X are 20% dimmer than the OG One X too. Previous One X's had panels from Sony, Acer, and Sharp. The new display on the One X+ is from a mysterious fourth vendor (0x944a03) that hasn't been identified yet. Maybe HTC's changed panel vendor's for their new devices?
Hi,
is it common or I have to request for repair?

Mine looks the same. I would say it's normal and no point in banging your head about it because it is only visible in very dark scenario on only black screen. Who uses there phone to look at black color in dark room? Nobody normal.
It's the way AMOLED screens work.
I must say, compared to how the screen of my I9100 looked after a few months use the I9300 seems a bit better with this kind of problem.
The screen of the I9100 looked like someone had poured black ink all over the screen, even on darker backgrounds, not just black.
A few dots here and there on the I9300 doesn't bother me.
The only time I see them are when I'm looking att NSFW content in bed at night and the wife rolls over att looks att the screen and i have too quickly change app
My old GT-I9100 which my wife uses bow has the same issue and so does my current phone.
I believe thos is normal, since all phones I've seen with amoled screen have the same issue.
And in my case it doesn't bother me, since I don't watch movies with lots of dark scenes in night.

Yes it's common and it's one of the several downsides of the Amoled screen. This phone would be close to perfect if it had the screen from the one x.

Have the same on my phone.
Yes i have the same problem on my s3.
but here's what i don't get, why is the screen not black all over. shouldn't all the pixels be turned off when displaying a black screen?
And it's certainly not an amoled issue, because my sgs1 does not have this problem. at least it is not visible because when the sgs1 displays a black screen the screen is much more black then the s3 or the s2 I had before.
Is the new amoled screens just cheaper produced?
just shot a photo (of bad quality) to prove my point:
(Both the s1 and the s3 displays the same black picture with screen brightness = 100% And the s1 is actually so dark that it is hard to see it.
wierd
i have the same problem too.. but does not have any problem with it..
Does anyone else see reddish or pink on their screen? I see it when I tilt the screen. I noticed it a few days ago on my S9+ and now can't unsee it. Straight on it looks OK but at an angle the screen looks pink, like when scrolling through GMail or web page when my phone is on a table at an angle to me. Not sure if I should exchange and risk getting other issues. Otherwise my device has been fine. I went to the AT&T store near me to compare their display models and mine shows some pink compared to the store.

Mine show slight blue tint when tilted
The left one has a slight green tint. No AMOLED is going to be 100% perfect. Actually I think you have one of the better panels. It looks brighter and the white looks thicker compared to the display model.
Based on the number of screwy AMOLED panels I've seen, that one would probably be OK to me. My panel is yellower along the top quarter and I also consider that a keeper you can do so much worse in my opinion. In ten years they may finally nail the technology till then it's lottery.

Mine also turns a little pink if angled... i can't remember if my previous S8 also did so...
Mine turns ever so slightly blue when tilted. It's MUCH better then my Note 8 was, which turned pink at even the slightest angle.
Try factory reset, when I got mine and turned it on I saw from the boot animation that the display was white. When it finished booting it looked like it was stuck with the blue filter on. I factory reset and the display has been normal since
This can be adjusted, at least this is what I did on my S8. Go to settings, Display, Screen mode and fine tune it there.
So my wife and I each have a US T-Mobile model. Her's definitely has the pink screen issue. Duplicating the settings between the phones and the issue persists. I will be contacting T-Mobile for an exchange.
FYI - wound up not being a hardware issue for our phones. I found out that the native Android Night Light setting transfers between phones. Was able to delete,and use Samsung blue light filter settings, using Nova and the instructions here.
https://www.reddit.com/r/GalaxyS9/comments/85blz5/psa_night_light_and_blue_light_filter_overlap/
anyone else experiencing this on their s9+? when i tilt my device, right before the blue shift, i can se a pink/reddish hue go across the display. do you have the same thing? should i be worried? it's kind of annoying, every slight tilt and i can notice it.
I think now that I checked it seems like mine also has a very slight pink touch on it... But i dont really care and I haven't really ever noticed it.
I use black everywhere possible. Dark theme, dark wallpaper, KIWI browser with AMOLED dark turned on, so this way I save my battery, i save my screen, and black is way better on the eye
