Tab S7 eye comfort shield setting is atrocious!!! - Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 / S7 Plus Questions & Answer

darks/blacks turn into brown. how is this even acceptable?! I'm dumbfounded. Espcially when I also have an iPad that looks great. I think cheap android phones do it miles better if I'm not mistaken. Unless some panels are defective. To me, unusable. I refuse to. Shameful.

Well I found a post on Reddit describing the same thing so I thought it was possibly normal. I’ll try to upload photos. Thanks for your reply.

Eye comfort/blue light filter on LCDs look like that. I think it's normal.

Could I maybe see a picture by any chance, considering getting a used s7 as I had a tab s6 lite but it suffers from this horrible brown colouring with eye comfort shield, I don’t see this same problem on other tablet devices like iPad, Xiaomi etc.

Improve Screen - HTC Flyer

Hello,
I have a best buy Wifi Flyer. The screen has a yellow tint on it. Super annoying and noticeable when you open the keyboard and compare to my Desire HD. Also noticeable when I go to google.com
To fix this I downloaded screen adjuster and set blue to 10, all others to zero.
Thats the setting I use, if anyone finds something better, let me know!
Don't know of anyone else that ever had this problem , but thanks for the info.

Yea, I don't know many ppl who have mentioned this. Hmm... I wonder if there are two diff screen manufactures for the Flyer like the Sensation :\
See the following for other references to yellow tint:

The Video demonstrates the screens yellow tint. Very noticeable on the few flyers I have used/seen. Very annoying too...
Any how, will report back.

I have had that same yellow tint, but sort of got used to it. Seems like a lot of people don't mind it because it isn't necessarily a defect, just that the default settings are a more "warm" temperature as opposed to "cool". I think it is just a preference thing, but thanks for the info! I downloaded it, but can't get it to correct perfectly. And I need to set blue closer to +20 in order to get near the coloring of my macbook pro screen.

Movies on curved screen? Bleh...

Are the edge screens part of the main screen? If they are, movie/youtube fullscreen watching is going to be an inferior experience on the s6 edge.

The screen curves away from you, it's the opposite of immersive because you get less useful screen area and more background reflections.

I think it really give more background reflection (on the curvy parts), but for me it doesn't really matter much. The choice of curvy screen obviously have some disadvantages, but people who don't wanna deal with it can get the S6 instead.

Anyone who thinks the curved edges (the main feature of the phone) won't please them, like duh, get a different phone. If you aren't in the mood for chicken, just don't order chicken. Order what you want.

Yeah they are work as main screen on the operations mentioned by you.
I think it's not gonna be a problem.The videophile can get S6 instead. I viewed testing video posted by youtuber Marques. I think the curved screen won't cause problem for video-watching but will cause problem for case-maker.lol
I don't care for movies that much, the edges imho are giving a nice touch to the picture.
I just wonder how good it might work with vr glasses, I hope that's no problem with the edges
It's curved like a millimeter on each side... is that 2 millimeters gonna ruin your movie experience?? If so, then buy the damn regular version. Why is this even a thread? Stop complaining people you are sickening

i agree if you don't like it don't get the edge.
however i tried it at best buy today and watched "the get hard" trailer on youtube and i felt like the screen was awesome and immersive now idk know if the edge played in this or the mere fact the quality of the screen is far more superior then my s5.
And buy the way the speakers or speaker sounded great loud and clear, 3x times better then the s5.

1 mm? Don't think so.. More like 4 mm.. I agree that the curve is pleasing when it comes to aesthetics, but the note edge Is superior since the edge isn't part of the main screen. What I would like to know is why people think it's immersive just because it's unnatural and different ?

Yep. Apparently smartphones are the go-to devices for videophiles and audiophiles now.
I was watching videos on the demo version at best buy yesterday, and thought they looked amazing! The slight curve was not a bother for one bit.
People still really watch full length movies on their phones? JK.....
From my experience, the curved screen looks amazing and I prefer it over the transitional flat screen. There's just something about it.....the best way to describe the feeling/experience is like looking at one of those edgeless swimming pools where the water just falls over the side into the bottom pool....it's just pure Class....hope that makes sense....
The edge just has that x factor to it where it actually makes the traditional flats look outdated LOL. It's like what the Samsung curved LED's did when it came out....it's a whole new experience.

S9+ screen burn in after 4 days

Hi there. Long story short I've already encounter a "mild" screen burn in on my brand new S9+ I receied last Friday. I say it's mild cause it dissapears after few moments but I'm not happy with that on almost £900 phone. Basically when I use AOD in blue and unlock the device I can see a ghost of the clock burned into my home screen. I reckon it's because it does not moe as much as it used to on my S8. Im attaching a short video but its hard to see in on there. And funny enough all it takes is few minutes for it to show up. Does anyone seen something like that before? My only concern is that if it's doing it already after few days how bad will it be few months in? I've contacted O2 to get it replaced but I hope my next one will be ok.

In my experience, screen "burn in" doesn't go away after a few moments. So if it does, then it's not really burned in, and isn't really screen burn in, yet.

That's why I've called it "mild" burn in. I know it doesn't go away cause I've had it on my previous Galaxy phones near the end of first year. This one does kinda ghost behind. I'm having a door swap this morning so hopefully it was just a case of bad batch. Also I managed to get a better video of what is occuring to my device if anyone is interested

Do you also use AOD? If so hopefully mine was just a bad one-off. The thing is, only few minutes are enough to make it seen. First time I wasn't even looking for it, phone was not moved for about an hour and then when I unlocked it it was pretty much black on white, that bad. A lot worse than on that video. Hope Samsung will notice the problem and make some adjustment to how AOD clock moves around cause it's moving nowhere as much as it did on my S8

Got my replacement device this morning and I can confirm that this one does the same thing for me. The question is, am I really unlucky to get a bad batch or is the problem a lot more widespread on S9+?

This is why I very much dislike AMOLED. Sure, it looks pretty but you have to watch what you display, how long you display it, and the brightness of your screen. The Nexus 6 burned in on me in less than a week and that was the last AMOLED device I owned.
I've been debating on trying the S9+, mostly because it's almost impossible to find a decent device without AMOLED these days. Same with glass builds. Yeah, they look nice but they're fragile and prone to scratching.
Seems like everyone jumped on the AMOLED bandwagon and now the glass build bandwagon. It's looking like the notch is next.
ive read OLED screen will have a tendency "burn in" pixels that are always on. need to keep things moving.

Rule #1 never use white **** on AOD
Rule #2 never use white widget
Rule #3 Use Dark theme
im out
Speaking of dark themes are they ever going to have an entire black scheme, system-wide?
I can understand having white themes for LCD devices but I really miss the system color schemes of the jellybean days.
When the S5 came out, for example, the dialer was so damn bright you could use it for a torch! (flashlight)
Ridiculous.
It.Needs.To.Stop.Now
Also, burn in and persistence are different. With the former being permanent and latter temporary.
Hopefully it's not permanent.
I usually disable AOD anyhow.
It's really dim but I feel safer with it gone.

AOD has been designed to keep shifting the content on screen so that burn-in doesn't happen. Not sure if anyone has noticed but I have noticed it on S7E and S8 so far.

I know it keeps moving, but it's better to play it safe and use other colors + without a background, still better than disabling it

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.

Dimple in the screen of my S10e

Didn't notice it at first, but realized I had a small ~1/16th diameter dimple in my screen. Never seen this before. You can barely feel it but its there. Doesn't affect display at all and only noticed in the right light on an angle. Straight on it looks fine. I've decided to keep it since display isn't affected, but others might me a little more anal about this sort of thing. Is this a one off anomaly or is there a QC issue? Check your screens!
S10e G-970F (exynos), ordered from never-msrp on ebay.
https://www.ebay.com/itm/223396384078
Oh man, that would be a deal breaker for me. I could never unsee that. Is there a screen protector on it that might be the issue?
Oh, hell no. Sorry. I know the E dosen't cost as much as the 10 or 10+ plus it's still a great amount of money. I can let this pass on a USED unit, not new. More power to ya, though.
Bummer! Hopefully it's just the screen protector...
Like galaxys said, it could easily be the screen protector.

False alarm- screen protector flaw. I'm sorry guys I completely forgot it came with one from factory. Took it off, dimple gone. I'm relieved, but regret posting, I don't want to spread bad info about this phone, especially since everyone's already knocking the exynos variant.

And yet, do you know that the screen protector on the S10 line has a 3-month warranty ? I read this a few days ago. You may or may not want to do something about it
