Please check your screen.... - Galaxy S6 Edge+ Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys, I think I have a defective screen. Can you guys please check yours out and let me know if this is normal?
On the bottom about third of my screen it is a shade darker than the top two thirds. Please install this app and look at the white and lighter color screens and let me know if yours is the same.

Also see the attached screenshot. From the red line down is where I notice it darker.
Thanks!

Yeah if my screen looked like that I'd throw the phone over the counter at the store! :laugh:
Looks like it was drawn with the quill of a turkey feather dipped in pig's blood. Carrie would not be thrilled over this.

I cant see anything wrong with the photo. Maybe its my laptop screen but if your screen is slightly darker maybe its just adhesive that hasnt fully cured. Alot of times we create problems with our devices by nitpicking every little thing. Enjoy the phone an leave the little things alone.

I see nothing wrong

I do not see anything

I'm sorry guys, I forgot to clarify something. The screenshot with the red line is just showing where I noticed the darker part of my screen. It was from the red line down. And it wouldn't show up on my screenshot since it was a hardware issue.
Anyhow, I exchanged the phone and this one is fine.
Thanks!

Is it true - Grey color and super amoled don't go together?

I recently purchased galaxy note and had dead pixel issue with it. So I got it replaced, and now the second one I ve got has this strange light greyish blemish visible on grey backgrounds. Also when I see the screen with grey color on it the screen doesn`t look uniform where as in all rest of the colors it looks uniform. Please have a look at the attached pictures and let me know if its normal ?
Also please set your brightness to 15% or below to check your devices.
Heres the video for better view:

Honestly, I don't see any blemishes at all. However, I do see a lot of air bubbles trapped under a screen protector. Are you using one?

Yes I am using a screen protector with lots of bubbles. But do check out the video, in images its not much visible !
No issues on my Note
No issues with the screen, no grey spots no bubbles, no screen protector.
My screen is great.
Also please set your brightness to 15% or below to check.
My god that CPU is loud!
Btw, i can't see anything.

Same thing happened to me. The 1st note I got had dead pixels and dust moving behind the screen. The second one had those dark lines on grey and white color... the first one had those too but not as much as the second one. I sent them both back for a refund. Don't know if I should try my luck on a third one..
Here are some photos:
(The one to the left is the first one with dead pixels)

Mine looks somewhat like the second one but with very less of artifacts !

Request: Someone with a White Note Please post a pix of it

if any of you have a digital camera and white galaxy note, can you please post a picture of plain white display (via LCD Test *#0*#) in low brightness. Please let me know. thank you all in advance.
Here you go. Hopefully the file attaches (I think it may be too large).
Oh, it looks like it may have downsized it. Let me know if you need more detail.
Is that dirt or a dead pixels on that image?

Must have been specs of dust. I checked just now and they're not there.

Thanks a lot! Do you have a screen protector applied on top of that? I see something that looks like mura lines. I'm sure those are not mura lines but the way the camera was focused on the screen. Also that display brightness was set to the lowest, right?
It would be great to see more users contribute to this thread. I'm making a tally to convince myself to buy a White note. My black note was serviced several times due to screen issues, and am getting a refund. Not letting go of the note just yet.

don't know if my eyes are playing me, I do see a couple of horizontal lines, I don't know if that is due to the screen protector or the angle the picture was taken from, don't wanna scare you, but I am hoping that the next wave of batches have a better production like the S2.
The witch hunt continues

Always Positive...
However, you can definitely appreciate the fact that the White Note has a better display than the Black. Horizontal lines or not, they definitely display less on the White compared to the Black. Hope to see more pictures soon!

No screen protector. And yes, I set the brightness all the way down before I took that photo.
I think if you're seeing a moire pattern it may be because of the difference in resolution between the reduced-resolution image and your monitor. I'm looking at the original photo in Photoshop and when I zoom in and out I see changing moire patterns at certain zoom levels, but don't notice anything when I look at it zoomed in at 100%, or even at 50%. And of course I don't see any moire pattern when looking at the phone itself.
Oh, and the brighter area in the lower left of the photo is my hand's reflection.
I do, however, see faint horizontal (vertical in this photo) banding on the screen when looking at the phone. I couldn't say whether it's any better or worse than the black/carbon blue version, as I've never seen one. I'd describe the banding as very faint, but visible if you're looking hard for it. And when looking at a blank white screen like this, I also have a general sense that not every part of the screen is quite the same level of brightness. Again, not major, but noticeable when looking at a solid white screen.
You'd need to reduce the brightness further with Screen Adjuster from the market. The basic brightness setting at 0% is probably only at 50% of what the screen is actually at. So you can go much dimmer to reveal the manufacturing process.
Learn to live with it. The marks don't affect the functionality of the screen. While I have noticeable marks on the bottom right half of the corner and vertical streaks, I don't let it deter me from enjoying this elegant piece of tech!

That is bollocks My new white 32 GB Note has a much worse display than my former two blue 16 GB. Think I gonna send it back so that the white has a better display is pure dreams
I just ordered my white note today. Looking forward to it arriving on my doorstep tomorrow!
guys make sure to turnoff AUTO ADJUST SCREEN POWER in display options.
i have black unit and i done lcd test on low brightness.no lines or anything.
if you have to download app to lower brightness even more to see defect.then something is wrong with u.because ur looking for reasons to find some kind of defect.everything is not perfect.if u cant see it on normal use,then its good piece.

lol. is my screen has 2 colors ? " lower half is greenish/blue while top is pink? lol

lol. is my screen has 2 colors ? " lower half is greenish/blue while top is pink? lol
is this normal ?
when i view gray wallpaper for example. or a white background during reading whatever, i noticed my screen has 2 colors. the lower is half is greenish while the top is pinkish
however, my screen doesnt have umm. any blotches " is this the correct word ? " you know.. when you put a black wallpaper on a dark room.. you dont see those deep black spots... i have none... i have them on my vita though lol.
oh yeah and no grid matrix or weird lines visible either.
just the screen kinda has 2 colors. or pink smearing on top. not sure ^_^
get a replacement there is a workaround for the pink but green :/

what is the workaround for the pink ?
the green isnt really green. its like... normal i guess. but it look greenish /blueish compared to the top one.
also. i just wanted to know if the pinkish top is a normal thing.
you never see an amoled screen without blotches. and those kill me as i am a very OCD " i mean hey, one of the reasons i bought the damn thing is because of its screen. so no blotches is a very wow lucky me kinda thing
it was a screen program i don't remember by playing with the settings it made the pink a little green so it was better but since u already have green it would pop up more so i think a replacement would be better

um.. no . lol i guess you are missing my point. what i am trying to say is when i am viewing a solid gray wallpaper for example. the upper corner seems different in color than say.. the second half. like the upper part of the screen is lil darker / pinkish while the lower part is brighter / bluer ?

and i am saying it's the screen's fault anyway you do what you want
I had the same problem, except the pink on mine is on the bottom, and it's not much of a fade, so it is very noticeable. On program apps like gmail, it is annoying. I took it back to my barrier and got a replacement, and the new one is fine.
If you can take it back, take it back. Or it'll bug you for a long while

Display slightly yellow towards the bottom?

Hi guys,
On a white screen or the settings menu - does anyone else notice that the bottom part of the display is slightly yellowish compared to the top of the display? Its very subtle. I notice it maybe because I am a little OCD about **** like this but does anyone else notice this subtle difference?
Can someone atleast give me a yes or no?

No, not on mine and haven't noticed others posting about that issue.
Not on mine either. It's all bright white
I just got mine last night and yes, I've also noticed some yellowish tint on the lower half of the screen

Did you get it replaced?

strange colours on screen

Hello i just bought s10+ well o had s9 plus, i dont see any differences.. only the colour of the screen is kinda purple why?
I tried to change the white balance nothing changed
Anyone?
Please?
I mean when I change point of view while watching my phone it's kinda purple :/ does anyone notice such a thing?
if there is a screen protector remove it.
There should not be any purple tinge. Did you buy the phone new? If not check that the finger sensor works, as it might be a after market screen. If it's new, then return it.

No, have never seen any amoled screen do this. Usually a tn panel shows this type of behaviour. Does the in screen finger print reader work?

It could be 2 things if you see like pink/purple coloring on screen especially on white background that's burn in
Another thing s9+ that i had under display there used to be an option in screen mode i can't remember the name i think it was called Cool or something that gave the screen than pinkish purple hue
Fingerprint working fine
He said he didnt change any screen and we would tell me
Also he had many positive feedbacks on the site that i purchased it
Might be something with purple or red colour settings
:/ Dont know..

I wish i could help you i know the feeling when you buy tech and you trust that there's nothing wrong with it but end up with problems.
Try making a few screenshots of the settings inside display and the home page post it here
