I think that the right side of my OP5 is darker than the left one. It's easier to observe it with low light.
You can check the video on the following link:

My screen is pink on the top and green at the bottom. They refused me a replacement or a repair, so I'm going to send it back, get my money and stick with my OP3. I don't think the 5 is really much of an upgrade on the 3 anyways.
Mine is darker on the left side and lighter on the right :/

I've never experienced my OnePlus 3 overheating or getting anywhere near it being hot enough for me to warrant worrying about. I don't play games on my phone, maybe that's why?
For day-to-day use, Chrome, e-mail, WhatsApp, Discord, all the usual stuff, my OnePlus 3 is just as fast as the 5. The only notable thing about the OnePlus 5 over the 3 is that the vibrator is far better and call quality is marginally clearer. Plus, Xposed not being on Nougat really put me off of the OnePlus 5, I'll stick with my Lollipop OnePlus 3 I think.
I have similar issue on the bottom side of the display. It's most noticeable on gray colors. But from what I've read here it's quite common with AMOLED displays. So you could get a display with more uneven lightning..

Will the screen bleed get worse? Is this a universal problem with all tabs? My case also has a slight pop/crack when I hold it on the top/left side. Thinking of trading it in for the Samsung, unless their build quality is the same.
I exchanged my first tf because there was 4 light bleed spots on it, my new one has only 1 very minor lightbleed spot that is not noticable unless you search for it but the right side bezel is a bit off, so theres a gap of about 1/2 milimeter which in the end translates as a similar gap at the same spot on the back where the plastic is meeting the bezel. So if you look at my docked and closed transformer you'd see the two bezels are not perfectly aligned, as one is slightly curved outwards... I don't know if I am going to return this one yet.
It depends if I manage to fix the video playback, even 360p videos on youtube are sluttering unless they are put in full screen... And I am on the lastest firmware with the lastest flash version + factory reset.
Another strange issue is that randomly, when I press the touchscreen the tablet emits a little and faint "beep" very very faint and with an irregular tone, and this is even with volume all set to 0, it makes me think the static electricity is messing up with one of the speakers or something, but meh it's not bothering at all.
If I can't manage to fix the playback issue & the gtab10.1 or 8.9 is an exynos dual core (I have it in the galaxy S2 and this soc is a BEAST, it runs circles around the tegra2 in flash video playback or responsiveness) by then i'll just get a galaxy tab and give the TF to my girlfriend since I don't need a keyboard at all for the stuff I wanna do on a tablet.
The extra battery from the dock is so sweet tho, i used it all day long and it is still at 100% charge lol.
I just think the first batches of transformers are terribly and randomly flawed, just RMA it to asus or keep exchanging until you get a decent one.
If the gtab ends up with tegra2 I don't see any point of getting it, the transformer even with its flaws is still light years ahead of the gtab in terms of connectivity & docking.

well when i bought it, it had very minor light bleed but now it has amped up a bit. i looks like with daily use, it'll get a bit worse and peak out and stay there for the rest of its time.
too early for me to confirm that theory though but i like that if it gets unbearable within the year, asus will take it and fix it for you
I've actually grown attached to my TF, and can probably live with its issues. Just don't want it to get worse, and I'm afraid to trade it in, getting a refurb instead of a new one...
I also have some light bleed issues with mines I got it 2 weeks ago. its not bad for me its just in the left hand corner and on some spots along the side and bottom nothing more than what I see on a smart phone.
If it does get worse, you have 1 year of warranty through Asus.
i like my transformer so far, but the replacement from amazon is coming. Mine apparently had really bad light bleed. There were 3 spot from the bottom left that had a big sploch and 2 medium size one 3 small one on the bottom and another one on the right.
I bought my nexus 7 in October so I've had it for a little over 3 months and iw absolutely love it, I've been having a bit of a problem with the screen and after a Google search I figured it was called light bleeding (has orange-yellowish tint going along all 4 sides)
So it's not too big of a deal as its only on the edges and not in the middle where I focus my attention plus it's really only noticeable if I'm reading or Web browsing with a white background. If I watch a movie or play a game I don't notice at all.
My question is, is it possible for the light bleeding to get worse and cover my whole screen? I can deal with it being on the edges and want to avoid sending it in for repair cause I'd hate to be without my nexus for a month so if it'll stay the way it is now ill just keep it and deal with it but if it's only gonna get worse I'd rather send it in sooner than later.
Any answers would be appreciated, thanks!
Just receive my 306SH, but that bleed starts to bother me a bit, is this too serious or just normal?

It's normal. With the phones I've gotten, they all have lightbleed. It was mentioned in most of the online (pre)reviews too...
The Crystal barely has a bezel on 3 sides of the phone so some sacrifices had to be made.
I did read that ~ but the gap is uneven and happen to be (much) larger on the right hand side (bleed almost non existence on left side) on this one ~ I would be a happy camper if it is a large straight line across or bigger in the middle XD.
guess will try my luck with one more
I have the same light bleed, right thicker, left thinner. It's really not a big deal to me, seeing that you have to actually turn the phone away from a normal viewing angle to see the bleed. Listen this phone is $150 and is just downright sexy and fast. Enjoy your phone and stop looking for what may be wrong with it.
i think it normal
A lot if people have been received their S6 Edge phones with defects, either through transit or manufacturing, I am now on my third one in 3 days due to there being a small chip out of the metal trim under the screen and then the earpiece speaker being all fuzzy on the replacement, not to mention one of the others i was offered had a chip out of the metal surround. Luckily my third one now seems perfect (fingers crossed).
Just make sure your phone is perfect before you walk away at the end of the day your paying a lot of money for it and its gonna save you going back and fourth like iv had to lol
I don't know how it works in other country's but here in the UK carriers HAVE to give you 14 days "cooling off period" which enables you to get on the spot exchanges if your unhappy with your phone, or they have to let you cancle your contract.
Hope this is helpful, thanks.

I can attest to this as I'm about to take the second one back this week. The problem is that it is difficult to do at these stores due to lighting. The first one I return as there was a small (miniscule) circle on the glass, otherwise the phone was perfect (In hindsight I wish I kept that unit). The second unit has a screen that I'm not sure how it made on the phone as it should have been rejected. Top and bottom has green tint, left side had purple tint and top right has the dusty/dirty section that you can clearly see on web browser when reading. Now, the VZW store was extremely nice and agreed to replace my first one with no issues. I'm going back to take the second one back this week.
The issue is with lighting at store and everything is cranked up. Tough to see screen issues on that type of brightness. I can't stand screens that aren't uniform and calibrated, and after reading about Amoled this weekend, I'm not expecting much. I'm hoping third time is the charm, but in all honesty I may just give up on this phone, as I don't really have the time to go back and forth to store every week to play the exchange lottery.
definitely no hardware problems here..
I smell what you're cooking! Typical company issues
Anyways, got mine S6 EDGE and I'm in love with it. I did not check everything, but it seems to be fine. But I have a question for you :
It is normal that the speakers are a little bit (I don't know how to describe this)...rustled, when I have the uppermost volume?
After reading this I thoroughly inspected mine. I guess I got lucky. Verizon 64GB White one and I don't see any issues at all. Sorry to hear you guys are running into issues though :/
T-Mobile 64GB Sapphire BLUE here. As far as I can tell, no defects. It almost sounds like initial batches had/has all the issues, but that's a small sample size. Personally haven't run into any thing related to: straight-from-box screen scratches, screen rotation issues, or color variances.
Only thing I wish it had was a little less sensitivity right above the home button... I keep hitting the area on top of the home button first, and then the button itself.
As for the speaker quality Its hard to tell really because it could be your cell connection affecting the sound quality as well, the problem I had was that no matter who I called it sounded like there with something going "zzzzzttz" "zzttz" as they spoke! As far as I'm aware the sound quality is actually pretty good cranked up full!
Come to think of it the first one I was given also had more of a yellow tint to the whites than the one I have now... Maybe a placebo effect but still something worth mentioning!
Btw : I just checked my display, I have a few,little scratches on my display. Is that normal? (You can only see them with bright light)

Depends on what you mean by normal. Around 30% of people here have reported the scratches.
You all should check for screen non-uniformity. A portion of your screen might be pinker than normal.
Here are pictures I took of my screen. I have a sliver of pink tint at the top and some pink tint at the bottom part. Grays also appear brighter at the bottom part of the screen.
Should I have it changed or this is above average for a s-amoled screen?
Here's the imgur link -> http://imgur.com/a/BMBXt
So I got my.hands on a pixel 3 earlier this year and had nothing but problems with the screen in terms of overall uniformity. Pink splotches or top half pink bottom half normal.
Fast forward 9 months I thought I'd give the Pixel 4 a go. Newer tech, thought these issues would have been ironed out, but obviously not.
My Pixel 4 - https://ibb.co/cCHHrRg
- Brightness around 20%
- Smooth display on
- Night light off.
Top left looks pink whilst the bottom right almost looks greeny?
I can't surely be the only one who has these issues?
Really not sure whether to return the phone for a refund or to take a gamble and get a replacement. The thought of playing the lottery again and constantly losing is a major put off.
I do miss the Pixel Line and the S10e just doesn't feel the same!
Has anyone experienced any similar issues?
Sure! mine looks similar especially at night with low brightness it even has bleeding and flashes light (try to do it yourself, go to gallery on a totally black picture, put the brightness at maximum and see yourself, pixel should be off, and they are on instead and they even flash white sometimes)
hope next batches of products will not have these issues

Why accept that thought on a product that cost as much as it did!?
I'm such a big fan of Google, I had pixel 2 and 3xl, I bought the pixel 4 hoping that the camera and the whole hardware would be great, but for the price we paid it..
Not so worth imo
Thinking about moving to iPhone 11 pro, the camera so really good and is overpriced just like the pixel 4.

I love the Pixel line for the software but the hardware is trash.
Another photo I took earlier.
https://pasteboard.co/IMVRgiI.jpg
I can not reproduce this to the extent your photograph is showing.
While I can discern the border between the 'forehead' and the screen, it's only there if I look at it a lot closer and more intently than I would during normal use.
I've not seen any pixels flashing, perhaps you have a faulty display/connector, I'd be looking into that before using your screen as an example of all Pixel 4's having issues with their display.
I'd like to add that I think it's odd that your screenshot shows a darker black behind the legacy software buttons you've enabled at the bottom of the screen than the rest of your screen shows - odd because both areas are displayed by the screen, they should be equally black.
Finally, perhaps you should look into taking a new picture where your highlights aren't blown / your image isn't overexposed, I think it's likely there's something wrong with your RGB channels.
I'm rather enjoying my Pixel 4, while it might not be a huge upgrade from the Pixel 3 you seem to come from, I come from a Moto G3 (2015), which means it's a world of difference for me. The only drawback I can think of is the battery life, but both during and outside of work hours I'm near chargers often enough for it to matter little. I'd say calling the hardware "trash" is a bit of an exaggeration, as much of an exaggeration as your photographed proof appears to me
Merry Christmas!

The smaller Pixel 4 uses an LG OLED panel (which has gotten better year after year of Google using them on their Pixel devices, but have notoriously exhibited uniformity issues across the screen -much more so than the Samsung panel the 4XL uses). That said, thankfully I don't have that red/magenta tint that seems to be fairly common for this panel (search reddit). I do however have the green tint that seems to come from the bottom of the panel up (that is a software issue caused by bad calibration of the 90hz display -regardless of whether you have 90hz on or not). It is more prominent on some screens than others, but it seems that most/all Pixel 4s suffer from that.
Anyway, I agree that Google just can't get their hardware right and, frankly, it's because they don't care. They just want people to focus on all their software innovations and since no one makes Google Play Edition phones anymore, we're stuck with their poor design and implementation.

On dark theme when booting device during Google logo everything is OK screen corners are totally black but when Google logo animation starts grey tint is appearing in bottom right corner. Could you check on your pixel also?
