Why do I see the underneath components of the fingerprint sensor under the display in direct sunlight !
because you bought a phone with under display fingerprint sensor ?

I don't think it's normal for the components to be visible! It is very annoying and distracting

Try using a grey/dark wallpaper for the lockscreen.

You don't see it the components of the finger print sensor the small and large square between number 5 and 8. They are only visible in direct sunlight on light/white wallpapers
Did you expect a component that is able to read your fingerprint, located under glass, to be completely invisible in every possible situation? ?

Actually OP has a pretty valid point, and you are being just annoying. Nobody expects to see stuff from under the screen no matter what on any device. Only the display contents are supposed to be visible.

The above being said.. I don't think I can see this under my screen. I have never noticed this (but have not looked for it either). Either outside under sunlight or inside; on bright and/or white background apps. Mine is BOE screen, not LG, if that makes any difference.

This! Exactly, thank you.
Mine is BOE with serial production batch 18c28.

On the new Sony Smart watch there is a dot to the left of the display where there is a hole in the black backing to the glass. This is also clearly visible on all the product drawing in the user guide. Any idea what this is for, is there some currently unused sensor or LED behind it?

Hi did anyone find out what the dot was? I have one in mine. Just got the watch Idk if it was cause I dropped it. Thnx
Even indoors, if the screen gets hit with direct light, there is a clearly visible crosshatch pattern across the whole display. Anyone else notice this?
Got to say I'm not too impressed with the screen quality. Light bleed, dead pixels and now this. My much cheaper Redmi 1s has none of these issues. Sure, the colours aren't as vibrant but not sure which I'd choose given the choice.
Don't see any of this, perfect picture from every angle and every light condition

There is nothing in the screen which unimpressive but If you you are expecting S6 or Z5 level screen then you are expecting too much and than you bought wrong one, just buy G4 S6 or Z5 if you want everything impressive except price

If you get direct light on the screen, you don't see the digitizer? I noticed it within a couple mins of using phone and wasn't looking for it. Never seen a digitizer so easily noticeable before.
I don't think its too much to expect at this price a screen without noticeable light bleeding, dead pixels etc. Honestly I think they used the European promotion to shift these phones with slightly subpar displays. Btw, I think you are overrating Sony's screens. They are known for the same issues I noticed on this Honor 7, even on their flagships.
I noticed this also but it happened to me after I removed stock "screen protector" and replaced with Nilkin tempered glass. I quess stock screen protector somehow filtered grid away.

I still have stock screen protector and also see it. I guess its just coincidence you noticed only after installing Nillkin.
I am very critcal when it comes to display, both with computers and smaller screens. Had there been a visible grid on my H7 I would have seen it, no doubt at all. I never could stand the Sony Trinitron support wires at the old CRT monitors, and a lot of people.never saw them!

Can't really think of a touchscreen phone I have owned where I couldn't see the digitiser at some point, at the right angle, in the right light.

I thougt we were talking about when it bothers you, not when you have to set it up in a lab to see it!
I havent seen the grid under normal use so far, if I see it under very special scrutiny, well, let it go!

I noticed it within 5 seconds of taking the phone out of the box when the screen was tilted towards a light bulb. The digitizier of the Honor 7 seems unique in that it's very visible in artificial indoor lighting.

You must clearly, no doubt, have an other screen/digitizer combo than I have, that's for sure!

I don't think you understood my post. I was saying I've seen them on all phones I've owned with touchscreens..... As long as the phone is in the 'perfect' combination of light and angle etc. In other words i was saying it is ridiculous for people to be complaining or thinking it os an 'issue'.

I have several phones and never seen the digitizer except in bright sunlight. With the Honor 7 I noticed it indoors immediately. Even checking side by side now in same conditions, I can't see the digitizer on any of them except the Honor 7. The screen looks like it has a texture to it when light hits it, not like the usual barely noticeable digitizer pattern. I agree that its not really an issue though, more of an observation.
I think honor 7 is one of the best phones I have had for this. I have just spent a few moments trying to see it and can't. I have always been able to see it before. I still have the supplied protector on also, if that makes a difference.

Check indoors at night time. Also at night it is visible with high brightness on white background, it you look closely.
Yes, your right, I can see them too.. But I had to put the display INTO my eyes that I was able to see them.. :silly:

Well.. into your eyes for straight ahead but tilted at light you can see from normal distance. It is minor issue though. I'm more annoyed with my dead pixel
When I saw your post I started looking for it, with different angles, different lights, etc... I can't see it !
I remember that it was sometimes visible on my Galaxy Note 2 and LG G3, but only with intense sunlight so I'll look again on the Honor 7 next summer I guess
I think the general product quality is the main factor, for example, I often see it (even indoors) on my Onda V989, which is a 130$ chinese tablet. (The tablet is great, but the screen has a weak max brightness).

It is very different looking than any other digitizer, so maybe you are looking for the wrong thing. It is not dots, and not a normal digitizer pattern. It looks more like a light texture on the screen. In daylight it creates a rainbow effect.

I can't tell what technically happens, but try and watch the screen with polarized lenses sunglasses and the screen is plain black, you have to look very closely to barely see something, turn the phone in any directions even upside down and your display magically reappears... Pretty annoying while using the phone outdoors (with good sunglasses )

Hi, i just received my 9s. Luckily it didnt have screen bleeding but upon checking closely i noticed some shadow around the punchhole more prominently on the bottom. Its quite noticeable on a certain angle and in white background. Do you guys have it too? Pls state your lcd manufacturer too if you dont mind. I have tianma display if that helps. Thank you
Update: so i went to an Xiaomi outlet. I compared my 9s to the display unit 9s, the display unit doesnt have shadows around the notch and edge. The colors are very even, its near perfect. I did check the lcd manufacturer, its huaxing.
Yes, i have it too. The shadow is there. I usually use dark/black themes and this helps a lot because that shadow is not visible anymore. Also my panel is without screen bleeding too. Cheers!
I have a tianma display too and yes the shadow is quite visible on the camera punch hole but no bleading issues on the side screen. I think the bleeding issues is visible on huaxing display only.

such a shame. this phone is nearly perfect but with the price i have no right to complain.
Hey, I too have the same issue in my phone around the punch hole and at the bottom. Is it reason enough to replace or is it normal on this Phone?

If its possible, you can go to your local xiaomi store and check their 9s display unit if it is has the same issue as we do. I myself cant do it because my city is in lockdown again. Let me know too

Well got the replacement and it too has the same issues. I guess that's some cost cutting measure by Xiaomi. I wanted to ask you a different question. I found a glitch where when you rotate your screen to the left side there's a short black glitch for 0.5 sec. I've attached a ss. See if you have this issue?
Thanks

sorry i already sold my device but i did not encounter that rotate issue as far as i remember but i do think its just a software bug.
When the phone is in direct sunlight, the phone changes the screen brightness. Somehow a slightly tilted square appears where the fingerprint sensor is located. It's not visible when manually setting brightness to the max. I hadn't noticed this before. When pressing the lock button, the square immediately disappears even though the screen off animation is still running, so it's probably a software thing.
Are there others who also have this (possibly on the February update as well)?

I meant that someone had already noticed it before.
Now that the sunlight is even brighter I actually see another rectangle (proximity/light sensor?) just below the front camera. I get the feeling it's not actually a software thing but just the transparency of the screen that's making it possible to look inside the phone in bright sunlight.

Yeah I get that it has to do with the sensor. I just thought that somehow they had limited brightness in that area or something, but i.g. it's just the transparency of the screen that's causing it to be visible
