I've gotten a little worried about all the talk here regarding screen defects. Made a quick video to see what you think?
At the first boot I did notice a stuck pixel on upper edge of screen....greenish. Didn't think that would bother me much. Decided to get one of the test apps and take a look. Its hardly visible... Mostly on dark screens.
I did notice on the black screen some bleed light. Not sure if that is a little inevitable with LED screens. It changes a bit if u squeeze the bezel. Just not used to that coming from AMOLED Note. Blacks on this are way better but whites on Nexus are better.
Thanks.

So I have an odd blue tint on my screen when it dims. I had another Nexus S before and this didn't happen, how do I fix this? It's only when the screen is dimmed or the brightness is low.
Same I took mine to best buy and the guy said that some screens are just like that and that's theres nothing wrong with it and he wouldn't let me return it. I'm a little bitter and I like ruin on sentences.

I have been noticing a strange tint when the screen is dimmed on my phone as well. I generally run it on mid brightness just because the thing looks so damn beautiful to have dim all the time.

Trust me, you don't want to return that one. The blue tint screen is the closest to true color display. Most of us are unfortunate to have the purple tint display, and trust me, it's ugly compared to the blue tint issue!

Does anyone with the white skyrocket have intense bleeding of light around the edges of the touch buttons? i had to turn the light off totally because it was so distracting. Can anyone with the black skyrocket tell me if this is a problem with theirs as well?
Yes, its same on my gf's skyrocket

Same on mine. Kind of sloppy but not a real deal breaker for me

I switched from the SGH-i777 to the SGH-i727, and I have noticed that the Skyrocket's touch buttons are a tad brighter. No "bleeding" around the edges, but definitely brighter.
If it bothers you, call for an exchange. I would. That's easily a manufacturing defect..
I guess no big deal. Just wondering if i should return and go with black

Around the edges of the icons or the glass? On my black skyrocket, I always thought the light around the edges of the icons were unusually bright, but it is part of the design. The samsung startup animation is supposed to mimic the bleed of intense blue light around the edges of the icons. You get used to it after about a week and it never catches your attention again.

not on the screen, on the buttons
I actually like it - gives it a bit of a glow IMO.
I have a white one and personally think it looks good.

Hi, I had my note for about a week and a half and I noticed a lot of light bleeding through the plastic around the screen. Is this normal or should I be worried? Thank, RandomAwesomeGuy.
I never had any light bleed on my Note. I got it for two weeks now and everything seems fine. Maybe try to contact Samsung support or anything. As I've read around here, light bleeds are pretty unusual with Samsung's builds.

Same
I have the same problem. Not really sure about it but i can't return mine until I fill out the warrenty card, it doesn't really bother meq though.
There are reports of light bleed in notes unfortunately most of the tablet suffer from this if its new tablet just get it replaced. Though light bleed is not a sign of hardware failiure but note not put together properly
It is pretty bad, there is a lot of blotches on the screen and the plastic rim is bleeding light. Like I said, the tablet is about 1 and a half weeks old, and I still have the plastic protection around the sides and back . Does any one know if Bestbuy will exchange it?
Please post a photo to see what you mean.
I have a Note 2 and a Nexus 5. When I first turned on my N5 I noticed something was up with the display (not the camera). Then when I put it side by side with my note 2 it was obvious that the N5 has a bad purple tint to the white screens.
My nexus 5 has a warm display, but not purplish. The whites have a slight reddish hue.
Mine is massively too warm, whites are yellow

Same here. Would like normal colors again.

Well thats good that the displays seem to at least be consistently off. Should be easier to rectify. Either way the display still looks gorgeous even though the colors are off a bit. Will look stunning once someone gets a kernel out there that allows us to properly calibrate the colors.
Mine is really brownish warm too with backlight bleeding in the corners. I'll take a picture next to my Nexus 4 when I get home.
In the meantime, could someone take a side by side picture of their Nexus 4/5 using a white background?
Thanks.

Or it's just my unit? I mean it's not bad, I can only see thin horizontal lines when the screen is off/dark and reflects some light. It's not as annoying as the replacement I once got on my Lumia, which had like thick checkerboard-like grid, pretty much always visible unless you were in a super dark room, but I notice it from time to time. How's your screen? Is it perfectly uniform when light reflects upon it or you can actually see some pattern, even if it's very light? Just wondering whether my unit is defective or it's just the norm. Thanks.
I can see slight lines in mine also. No big deal since that's how the screen is made I believe.
Sent from my amazing nexus 5 that dicecuber/trolls hate.
I've seen it too in the right lighting conditions.
That's what I was thinking pretty much...well, I feel sorta relieved right now, but basically I was simply curious...this is the best screen I've ever seen period, I'm more than happy with it!
The Nexus 5 definitely has a beauty of a screen, I can notice digitizer lines barely in direct sunlight with the phone tilted at a certain angle
