SCREEN - Light Bleed / Dead Pixels

Sent my first AM7 back to Amazon due to some screen issues. It was a silver model. My new black one is much better and only has a little Bleed in the top left corner. Being an lcd screen I expected a little as my Panasonic TV has this issue also and previous HTC One M7 had the same too.
The actual screen quality is really great just a little Bleed on some units it seems.
Anyone else notice issues. You will only see them in darkness.

No such issues in my unit. Even I put a complete black wallpaper but still no bleeding seen.

Good to know. Probably a quality control issue then.

You shouldn't be worried about this minor problem. It doesn't affect the performance in any way.

Exactly .. people are too much worrying .. - some little bleed- it is just LED light pases trough you won't help it .. you wont see it only when screen is black and you in dark.. in normal use is invisible ..
Mine LG TV has bleed in one corner .. so what.. if i replace it the bleed will be in another corner..

That's my point also. People are making this a very big issue. I never looked for this in my other mobiles till I saw this discussion here. People want to create problems for themselves... ? ?

I ordered two AM7s: a white one on the left and a black one on the right. Both have light bleed issues. Here are some pics compared to an iPhone 6, all with the same wallpaper.

Mine is not that bad but looks like ad card slot and volume rocker locations which is interesting. A little bleed is usual normal on LCD as discussed but I returned my first unit die to a dead pixel in the centre of my screen which I think most would agree is not acceptable

Well, if youre going to look at @buddyrevel's pictures, the light bleed is surely an issue. Btw, mine has too, on the right side where power and volume buttons are located.

Yellow tint

I have redmi note 4g and its a wonderful phn with a grt specs in vry low price..
Even display is gorgeous but there is a problem with my display.. I dnt knw whether its only me or anyone else hv same kinda issue.. Display works absolutly fine ,but " THERE IS A YELLOW TINT ON SIDE EDGES OF A DISPLAY".
Its a gradient yellow and appers mainly on top side edges of the screen.. No its not becoz of some screen guard or some theme.. I even change the whole rom jst to check whether its the fault of the rom or the display.. I even changed colour saturatuon but that yellowish tint never goes. .It mainly appears on white background. I can clearly see whn i go to settings as it has white background ..
I dnt knw anyone personally who has redmi note 4g to check if everone is stuck up with this prob or jst me.. If anyone is facing same issue then plz post here
Is there any solution to it..?? I stay in india (mumbai) and phns warranty is still not void..
Plz reply soon.. Thanxx

Could be caused by moisture. Do you bring your phone with you in wet environment? (eg. shower) In that case just avoid that places in the future (or put phone into a transparent plastic bag, like I do)
Or it could be a hardware related problem. Screen was always yellow from the beginning or it changed at some time?

That could b d one reason.. I use phn in bathroom sometimes too listen music..
I exchanged this phn.. Originally it was of my dad.. So i doubt if yellow tint was from beginning or it appeared now
But thanks anyways.. I will try to keep in plastic to get rid of moisture.. And wil tel u if this prob gets solved or not

I know I am replying to an old post. But, there isn't any other thread on this matter.
I've got the same issue. I will try to remove the screen guard and check.

yellow tint appear in my phone also when the phone was delivered on 24 Jan. Even old MI 4i and Red mi Note 3 screen are clear and white in comparison to new Redmi note 4. Highly disappointed,made every setting/test updated the phone and also provided details to Mi Service for replacement. MI service although acknowledges the yellow defect but they are not replacing as per replacement policy EVEN WITHIN 15 HOURS OF DELIVERY. Yellowness is defect.
Very bad experience from MI SUPPORT.
You can compare new Red mi note 4 with Mi4i and will feel difference.
Very poor MI service in terms of replacement of note4

Bad Amoled screen

What a bummer.. I have NEXUS 6P but it comes with a light vertical line (on gray and sometimes on white background if you look closely).. After research i found out that they are using Note 5 Screens. But really i'm dissapointed of this build quality of a premium phone. I fixed the bad colors (yellow and pink hue) with the kernel manager of Elementalx, but the light vertical line doesnt dissapear and they advice me to send for a repair Huawei VIP service (3 year warranty, just repair NO RMA), what shall i do send it in for a repair or keep it until its getting worser.
Please give me advice for this issue.

A lot of brands use Samsung amoled screens. But what does that have to do with build quality? It's obvious you have a problem with you screen panel. It's also obvious you should send it for repair. duh

Difference between same model bought from Flipkart and Mi.com

Today I compared my Redmi Note 4 (Black, 4gb, Flipkart) and my friend's Redmi Note 4(Gold, 4gb, Mi.com) side by side. Here I found following differences and I'm totally disappointed with Xiaomi.
1. Flipkart model has yellowish tint in screen.
2. The camera quality of Flipkart model is very low compared to Mi.com model.
3. Intensity of flashlight is also low in Flipkart model.
What can be the reasons for this difference? Has anyone experienced the same?

My device is roughly two months old. And it has dead pixels in the screen. Somewhat disappointed. Though other things are great

Take it to a service centre , they'll replace it for free , make sure you have locked bootloader and warranty isn't void.

Xiaomi ships Redmi Note 4 with many different hardware parts.
Like my unit for example, Indonesian Redmi Note 4 2016102 Black 3/32GB ships with BOE panel (apparently cause of that yellowish tint), Samsung camera sensors in both rear and front, FPC fingerprint sensor, and yellowish LED flash.
Some might ship with Tianma panel, Sony or OmniVision camera sensors, or Goodix fingerprint sensor. Damn Xiaomi.

Every Redmi note 4 that I have seen (5 devices) has dead pixels. They have really low quality control, I guess

The one which I have has none. And moreover the issue few people are having is not dead pixel but a stuck pixel that's the reason you are able to see it in black backgrounds with higher levels of brightness cuz the pixel is just stuck in one single Colour. If the pixel was dead you wouldn't have noticed it on a black background cuz a dead pixel won't light up in the first place( you would notice it in a white background though). And coming to the yellow tint yes I had the yellow tint while I got the phone but it seems to have been fixed in the software updates cuz I don't have it anymore!

Goto about phone and tap on kernel version several times wait for CIT to launch, now select the 1st option. There you can see codes under both front and back cameras if it's s5k5e8 = Samsung, imx258 = Sony, neither = omni.

Is there a way to resolve stuck pixel issue?

Screen flickering in dark mode!

I turned on dark mode in 11.0.3.0 based on pie. As i was using insta in the dark mode i slightly scrolled down and upwards and can see that there was slight blackiness on the top and bottom on the post and i can see too while chatting(i dont know how to explain) . Just scroll up and down and you will see the what i mean to say. Is that a software issue of hardware or is it common with amoled display? Please suggest!

Hello,
It's common with AMOLED display. it's called OLED black smearing.

Thanks for clearing the doubt!?

Same here. It's caused by cheap manufacturing / low quality display. Before Xiaomi Mi 9T i had Oneplus 3T and didn't have this issue. Friend has Oneplus 5 and also not facing this issue.
