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

Just got my Titan a day ago and i notice light leaking between the edge of the screen and the frame, just below the back, windows and search buttons. This is obviously visible when using the phone at dark places. I find it annoying, does your phone have this problem? Should i have it replaced? See attached photo...
Is it normal..

This was already reported in another thread.
I don't see the issue though; it's not noticeable nor is it detrimental. The real problem is that you can't turn the lights off when watching a video; then the entire thing is distracting.
Capacitive buttons suck in general, except for the cool factor.

I still find it annoying. This is on top of one the Windows logo that's brighter than the rest. Hmmm what to do...
Mine doesn't leak under the edge of the screen, although it is brighter in the bottom half of the buttons, so clearly the lights are right at the bottom. If it's leaking under the screen edge, it would indicate that the screen is not quite seated correctly, so could be worth exchanging. That said, it won't affect the functionality of the phone so it depends if you find it annoying enough to send it back. Personally I think if you've just bought a brand new device at £400 odd then you want it to be spot on - on my first device, the little plastic surround around the micro usb port would come loose, and the headset speaker would buzz at high frequencies, so I returned it and the replacement has been spot on (touch wood). Over all, I would say the Titan is a very well made phone.
I think it is normal.
It is normal. I have it also. Underneath and when my brigtness is low i can also see it below on the screen.

No!!!!
It's normal and already mentioned quite a few times. It would have been nicer to not have just the bottom right to be extremely bright but then the whiteness wouldn't have come out so well. It might have been dull. Hope Titan 2 has a smaller LED.

Just like others here I thought it was normal and didn't think nothing of it however due to a recent screen fault on my Titan, it was sent to HTC for repair now it's comeback fixed, they replaced the whole screen and not sure what they've done but the light leaking from between the edge of the screen and the frame is no longer there!
So I guess it's a case of quality control at manufacturing, you'll either get Titan with this issue or not!

Great to know that! I sent back my unit to ebay seller for replacement. I asked them to get me a new unit with no issue - in case all their stocks are the same, it is nice to know that it's repairable!
So did anyone already found some dead pixels or subpixels, or yellowspots / stains in the screen.
Let us know here.

Lucky you, i have a "dead pixel", green one.
And a yellowspot in the rightbottom corner, but that'll fade over time. (i hope)
I'm glad that the screen has a very high resolution, it's really hard to even notice the dead pixel.
I have noticed a yellowish tinge at the bottom of the display. Only really notice it when there is a white background. Is it likely that the display is somehow faulty??

I have the exact same, a yellowish spot in the bottom right corner.
I hoped it was the same problem as the iphone or SGS2.
They say the yellowspot is from the glue that they use to stick the screenlayers together, but it needs time to vaporise and should go away over time.
But I have my phone now almost a week and i still get the spot back now and then.

The guy told me he's going to get information for me, and see if they can replace it. he'll send me an email later.
Same hear.
Barely visible yellowish (only on whites) at the bottom part of the screen.
It varies depending on the view angle.

Hi guys just wanna update you regarding screen issues.
I've spoken with people on the forum of my country, other 2 guys with Xperia S and both of them got that really barely visible yellow tint on the bottom part of the screen (also, one of these guys has 2 Xperia S -him and his brother- and both of them have that tint).
Really difficult to explain it on forums (nothing compared to the GS2 yellow tint) because it's really hard to see and only visible on white/clear colors uniform backgrounds, but according to what I'm seeing it's a common issue, not a problem of a single faulty unit.
Got a blue/whiteisch pixel to the top right of my screen
They said i need to have more then 3 to get a new phone :/`
Can i fix this ?

I have the problem too. I called technical team dept from where i bought the phone, and they asked me to do a screen test over the phone. I tap the screen it shows all white, tap again red, green etc etc. He asked me if i could see a yellowish tinge running across the bottom of the display when these colours appeared on the display which i couldn't to be honest. I took it back to the shop, and i dont know if it has to do with the bright lighting within the store, but it didn't show up hardly at all, barely noticeable. It seems less noticeable in a well lit environment, or outside as opposed to when i am at home where it i notice it more. It is midly annoying, but this shouldn't be the case.
Can anyone throw any light as to what this could be??
Thanks

I believe that yellowish tint has something to do with warmth from the screen or the battery or the screen staying on for a longer time or something or something.
because when I'm using it alot, playing games, browsing, whatsapp etc etc. for like an hour. It gets more visible.
And then it's from "barely noticeable" to "hard to miss"
I can clearly see it on Grey (notification slide down) or Blue (startscreen DrawSomething) or White.

Same here. Interesting what you say. I would still like to know where the consumer stands on this issue, and if Sony themselves would recogonise if this is a somehow a fault with the display. My Arc had no such problems.
Hi guys,
I'm new here, but I was reading the threads on the S from the start.
Reading through the screen problems I was thinking about the following:
The Xperia S's screen is glued- as I know -, like for example the iPhone4/4s'. Some i4 users noticed this yellowish tint as well, and they've came to a conclusion it was because of the glue what was used to put the screens together and it disappeared after about 1,5-2 weeks.
This could explain the reaction to temperature differences too.

Since day one I never noticed this issue, and I'm quite a picky guy. Now, after seeing all the problems related to this amongst other users I cannot really be sure, maybe it's just my imagination. Since I have to try so hard and stare at the phone without any permanent conclusion I guess it's pretty satisfactory for me. I feels sorry for other users with this problem, unfortunately Xiaomi will not replace all faulty units. At least they will hopefully notice this issues for future reference. I already posted my thoughts about Poco under "overall love".....maybe you would agree with me on that one.
Anyone else experiencing this? See attached photo. Bottom end of the screen, pretty much half way down and onwards, colours and get lighter at 0% brightness. Top of the screen is black, like an AMOLED panel should be, bottom is light with an almost green tint. Used a screen test app and can see the shift even more and also navbar burn/retention.
Not impressed.
As I ordered this on O2, via Mobile Phones Direct, who do I contact or do I go to Huawei? Only been using the device for a weekend!

Ok so on lowest brightness in a dark room the darks on xda for example is greyer bottom half of the screen. But tbh any oled I've tried struggle a bit at very low brightness on dark/grey colours. Staying that yours does look particularly bad on the bottom 3rd
I have that too in the bottom right hand side of the screen. I already spoke to Sky to get a replacement and they want me to send pictures.

I'm printing out the photos I've taken in colour and including it with me return, keeping them for my record too. They want me to factory reset the device so last thing I want is for them not to be able to replicate the issue. Unsure what tests they'll do, as it's going back to Mobile Phones Direct
That sucks mate. I've not followed screen issues on OLED devices closely across the brands...so surprised this is happening with a premo device. Hopefully there are only 1 or 2 cases for some of these major defects...as many more becomes worrying!

Another thing, sorry for off topic is I've switched from Three to O2 (number transferred a few hours ago and now using O2 with old number) and I'm getting absolutely terrible 4g speeds. At work at the moment and signal hasn't always been the greatest on my office, but hoping when I test speed when I leave and also when I'm home that speeds are decent. Otherwise I may end up cancelling this phone and contract, and maybe I'll see about the Pixel 3 XL on a contact back with Three, or maybe I'll go sim only and get the Oneplus 6T - as the likelihood of getting root for this device is looking slim.....
Wait for 1/11, which ius the AUS release date of the phone and an extra week and see if Funky Huawei offer rooted versions of this phone. The hardware by itself is far superior...it's a same there's a lot of bugs and problems letting it down though...and then there's EMUI...

have you received your replacement device yet ? and if so how is it ?
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.

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.

Seems to be some QC issues, I'd suggest getting a replacement, I can't see any of these issues on my device personally

well that shoots that theory down
I dont think there`s much point swapping its like looking for a unicorn either return and try a device without this samsung panel or find a way to live with it sadly :/

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...

Hold onto oppo await OnePlus if it's green then decide on which phone to keep or return both ... Less swaps
Good luck ?
How do you see your QC date?

I cancelled OP8 order that day as I thought that I can live with Oppo's screen. But I can't, so I sent it back today.
Ordered OP8 pro again, it is arriving tomorrow. Will update once received, fingers crossed.
