Hello guys,
I noticed a slight misalignment with my fingerprint scanner on the Pixel 3 White 128 GB. I'm not sure if this is a singular issue or if it affects all other Pixel 3 phones / only this charge. I'm not sure if I should return it / get a new one (bought it today).

Are you sure? I decided to take a magnifying lens. I also heard about this "issue" in a Youtube video about the Pixel 3. It's just a slight line, maybe less than a mm, but it's stil there - on a thousand dollar product.
Or maybe I am wrong. This is something difficult to notice. And only from a certain angle. Maybe you guys can try to reproduce it on your devices?
Maybe only the Clearly White 128 GB charge of the small Pixel 3 is affected. Who knows.
Looks a bit misaligned to me. Mine isn't off center like that, so they're not all that way. Question is if it works ok how OCD are you? Only other thought is if it's not sealed well enough it might allow moisture to get in, but that's the only possible risk I can see if it works well.
I have the same issue on my 128gb white one
same issue on my 64GB not pink @@

Its an optical illusion, as you are looking at shadows through glass. You can see in your second photo, if you remove the "depth" of the shadow layer, the fingerprint sensor sits right in the middle.
Look at the back of your pixel and hold it upside down. Look more normal? Now turn your pixel to the side..any difference?
You can also try looking at it in a semi-dark room. You wont see any shadows, it should look normal.
same issue on my white 64. at first i thought it was just the back glass etching. but it is slightly off center.
Just got my pixel 3 white 64gb and mine is off to the left. Can't un-see now... hopefully the iprating isn't compromised
Just got mine today and same thing, the google expert said nothing wrong. I sent pictures. Same thread on reddit, but i pushed the sensor and it does shift to cover the space, for everyone saying its an optical illusion.
Somewhat related to this, Got a Pixel 3 that had sealing adhesive coming out from top right of the phone. There was not a lot of goo coming out but definitely not acceptable for a $800 phone. It seems the tolerances on Pixel 3 to push them out to market are not great.

Id say real, looks like a authentic photo with reflections on the poster
Shows 1.2ghz Dual core Processor, with the dates 10/11/2011 or 11/10/2011 american date
Super amoled which we guessed etc 4.7" screen it says
I agree with you. Lets wait for HK tonight and confirm all this
one thing that i find strange is
Why are the 3 dot connectors on the same side as the power button? if u have it docked on the side how would u turn it on?
Seems abit silly which could indicate fake but its hard to call something real when its unreleased
But "what if" that is not a connector?
any theorys on what else 3 dots could do? 3 dots is pretty common for dock connectors
what if they are on both sides?
like ,for fingers, not to "slide" from hand ?

That doesn't make any sense at all. (No offense, just being brutally honest.)
The dock pin connectors belong on the other side but otherwise this is pretty much spot on.

but check again samsung video

they are on the power button side
The official teaser video showed the pins on the same side as the power button. The only thing I see that makes me doubt it is the lack of curvature on the screen.
i like it and think thats what its going to look like. we will see today and i work at a cell phone store and the nexus is in my cellbrite for like two weeks already and we get promo posters and cards and t shirts all the time before phones come out so why not and its china we all know the chinnese got the inside info on everything
why don't you take a few shots and post here to see those posters

The curve is probably pretty subtle like on the Nexus S. Those blue lines in the teaser really exaggerated the curves

I can't believe Google hold this event in here LOL

Yeah, but I saw the enhanced photos from the video, and the curve on the actual device appears much more distinct than the Nexus. We'll see though I suppose.
It's real.
Comparison.

It's actually japanese.
is that chrome around the phone
if so yuck
still want though
What concerns me is the bottom bezel. It looks like there's a lot of black after the on-screen buttons on the bottom. Seems like a lot of wasted real-estate. In the leaked videos, it's even more apparent: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Py9TfZGie48
I think the phone is too long... =T
I just got myself a XIaomi mi3
everything was fine i but two days into use I find myself at the eng of a nagging problem..
the bottom edge of the screen is dim compared to other edges , this is apparent mostly when you are viewing white pages.and the top edge is slightly brighter..im not sure whether i can say it is backlight bleed or not..but when i loaded a full screen black page..there was a bit more light coming out of top and bit less
MY question is this a problem worth replacing the phone..? i can live with this as its not much of a deal breaker for daily use..you dont notice it often
Does it have any impications on the life of LCD , battery life etc?
Here are some pics i tried ,but the camera is poor and i dont think i was really able to capture the issue ..but i you look closely you can see the difference between top and bottom edges [top is left side btw]

no way i would "live" with any problem like that on a phone i just bought. if nothing other than being annoyed it doesnt look like it should, i would be worried constantly that it will get worse or spread.
if it were mine, it would have gone back the second i noticed that.
yeah thanx for the reply man ,which is exactly what im doing..hoping the new device doesnt have issues
Display bleed issue

Does replacement Mi3 have bleeding issue too?
Seems it's a bit common, the replacement does have it but compared to the original one it's far less
You will notice it if you look for it., using the phone for over 2 months
No problems otherwise
Last night while using my phone in the dark, the brightness set down low, I noticed on sites that were darker themed that there is an odd anomaly in my screen. There is a line (that reminds me of a hair, maybe an eyelash) that only shows when the brightness is low. I was able to take a picture of it with my girlfriends G3, though it's much more noticeable when you're using the phone, as it's stationary when you scroll.

This is my first Super AMOLED screen in a while, but I don't remember anything like this before.
If it truly bothers you i'd see if your carrier will exchange it for you. I had a notification light go out and tmobile exchanged it forb $5. You'Lloyd get a refurbished device, but eliminate this issue.

I'm more interested in finding out if this is more widespread than just me.

Just exchange. Next time look at the one you are getting in the store more carefully.

You realize the lights are so bright in store something like this would never show up, right?
Actually, those spots are not considered a defect in Samsung's eyes. The spots are the nature of producing amoled screens. My old PSVita(3g wifi) model are riddled with these ink spots that are only visible on a black background in a very dark environment. Also my s3 and s4 had them. Not all of them has these spots and some are more prevalent than others. It's just the luck of the draw when it comes to this matter.

Hi everyone
So after 3 years of use, this started happening to my Xiaomi Mi5 yesterday... out of nowhere... wasn't doing anything different... the screen just started showing artifacts...
I opened it up and there was nothing wrong with the flat cable or anything else... tried disconnecting the screen, battery but nothing worked so I guess I need to replace the LCD... I doubt this is software related as it happens during boot as well...
Now the question is where to find a GOOD quality LCD screen... In Aliexpress and Ebay the opinions are totally mixed between "crap" and "worth it" so I really don't know where to get one. Do you guys have any recommendations?

Hey! Cracked the screen on my mi5 and had to replace the LCD too. Bought it from aliexpress. Quality isnt number one but it gets the job done. Though there is some yellowish black tint on the left side as seen in the picture.

i was expecting LGE. original has jde, sharp and even lge. best display panels are from jde, and even sharp are good. lge display comes third, not as good as jde. i havent seen sharp yet, i have compared jde & lge, and they have quality difference. jde was sharp in color.
Does a real picture of the exclusive Samsung colors exist? I want to see what they look like in real life before i decide to order one or not. More specifically, I'm trying to figure out if the edges of the graphite colored phone is going to be a black/dark like the phantom black, or will it have a chrome/metal looking side. It's hard to tell on the render they have in the website. From the from view it looks black/dark and from an angle it looks Chrome.

My Graphite order hasn't changed, it still says heading to my country. On a separate note, I finally went into Curry's to have a play with a S22 Ultra, it was the 8Gb/128Gb model. And my word it was super fluid and fast at doing everything I tried on it. Opened lots of apps, repeatedly...

My Graphite S22Ultra is still waiting to be delivered, hopefully not long now.

Thanks. I really just to know that it's going to look like in real life... Not on some rendered picture that might look different from what it really looks like
You can check out some reviews on YouTube...
Try browsing Reddit Galaxys22, plenty of Samsung exclusive pictures in there.
Flossy Carter did a video of the Red one earlier today, I have 2 Graphite ones. I'll take a picture in a moment and post it.
Edit: It has a lamp on top so it looks a little brighter than normal.

Damn that is sexy. I have ended up placing two orders.
One Phantom Black and the other Graphite.
Will cancel whichever doesn't ship first but I hope I end up with Graphite.

That looks really nice. Does it have a shimmer or metallic touch to it or is it completely matte?
My burgundy looks more like purple... Never knew Samsung to actually match the true colors for their actual phones once you have them in your hands. All a moot point anyways since it is truly just the 1% that rock this phone naked without a case or at least a skin.
