Hi,
I have just received this device today and have noticed an issue, is the following normal where when swiping up and down in Settings there is a blur from the menus. Whilst moving down the blur is at the bottom of each menu boxed off, while swiping up this is at the top of each menu box.
I have it too. I think it's a bug.
Does anyone know how to remove the grey and only use dark in (quick) settings?
I am facing the same issue too. Tell me if someone got a solution!
I think its an amoled Thing...
Came from Poco F2 Pro, in low brightness it hast the Same blur issue...
Its a amoled thing.
Happned with my samsung galaxy a50 and now with the OP8T.
This happens to every amoled out of the box or is this gradual over time? As this happened me out of the box, just wondering if it is worth returning the phone for this?
Happened on both my S10+ and Lg V60 with dark mode. They also both switched between dark gray and black depending on brightness. Im pretty sure its an android thing.

Is this something that affects the working of the phone? Do you read the text as the sentences are moving up or down? I am amazed at what people complain about!

So as you know the kit kat update brought back the smearing (which was more or less hidden until know) and is the most noticable when you are on the lowest brightness. But also there is a green tint on lowest brightness, most noticeably in videos. Now as you know apps like screen adjuster reduce this problem but what i found is that when activated screen adjuster (15 on contrast in my case) does the following: i was in youtube app to test and in portrait the video didn't had any green tint, while in landscape the tint appeared. And with some other video player (like mx) the tint was gone and the smearing was reduced or even gone. Note that in mx i wasn't using the screen adjuster app. So maybe just maybe there is something in the software that samsung messed up. If a dev can look into this maybe we can figure out something.
Thanks in advance and i apologise if these things were known and i wasted your time.

Been using Samsung phones aswell as others for years and never had a single fault. They all latest over a year before being sold on with zero issues. I've had an S4 since launch and it's still working perfectly. As far as reliability and build-quality goes Samsung is the best in the business, and by build quality I mean how well its assembled and reliability NOT the material the case is made of which many of you care so much about.

I can't say that I've had any problems with my s4 since upgrading to kit kat

Same for me, i keep my screen at about half brightness and it is fine, i can't say i have looked overly close at all though..
Since the s4 true black pixels get completely turned off, the smearing you see are those pixels turning on again. It's a hardware thing.
Can't say I've noticed any difference. Can you elaborate at all?

You can see it in this video. Black pixels leave a purpleish trail on the screen. http://youtu.be/DOQ91ujRFxU
I see what you mean now, so is this a hardware limitation or somehow linked to the software (os version)

Hardware limitation of OLED screens. Pixels take some time to go from completely off (black) to a lighter color such as blue or gray resulting in that weird trailing. AFAIK, the older version of the software didn't use pure black (pixel off) in the menu but a slightly lighter shade of black (so that the pixel would not be completely off). I still noticed it in some moving scenes in movies though when pure black was used.
For the green tint I don't know, I remember when I switched from LCD on my Sony phone to the S4 I noticed it had tinted whites and weirdly saturated colors but now I'm used to it and I don't notice it anymore and I actually kinda like the saturated colors even though they aren't very realistic.
Haven't seen one since switching from my bloody ****ty Galaxy W I8150 which had a really bad white smearing effect (v3 HW rev). Using the exynos version with MFD: 2013:12:24 (christmas eve baby!)
There MIGHT be differences with screens manufactured at different time/version/revision but that's just an uneducated guess.
Hi all,
I've been an original Note 10.1 user for 18 months an upgrade to a Note Pro on a great deal. It arrived this morning and at first everything was wonderful, but the moment I fired up Sketchbook Pro, the yellows looked dull and greenish. A large stroke of pure yellow painted some seemingly olive green colour. It's not really suitable for art. Video and photo's tend to look okay though (possibly even better colour balanced that other devices I have), so it's hard to pin down. It also happens in other applications - the colour picker in SNote has a really sad, depressed yellow. I've taken a few photos alongside other displays but depressingly they capture a pure yellow which is very odd.
Googling around, the Lenovo Yoga 2 uses the same screen and has users grumbling about the yellows, and a BIOS update has improved things but not fixed them, suggesting the RGBW Pentile display is just incapable of accurately displaying true yellows. If that's the case though, why wasn't this brought up in the many glowing reviews of the Note Pro?
The best way to ascertain whether mine's a defective/improperly calibrated unit or not seems to be to ask other owners, hence my enrolling here. If you paint some pure yellow in Sketchbook Pro, does it look yellow? Does it pop like a ripe lemon or banana, or look somewhat sickly and off? Is the Note Pro just incapable of rendering such colours?
As an aside, why aren't colour calibration options included on devices like they are on TVs?? Seems an easy way to allow users to tailor their colour preferences. Edit: Huh. Samsung does provide Screen Modes for their tablets, just not those from Hong Kong!
Turns out the Hong Kong model doesn't have Screen Mode settings according to the manual. US and EU does, but not Hong Kong. Why?! So I'm guessing that this model is limited to 'movie mode' colours or something. If you vote above, please mention which region your Note Pro is from (and better yet, if changing the Screen Mode changes the colour rendering).
Have you found out anything else? I've the same problem (I've already voted).
I'm questioning myself if I should send it for RMA or not, since I live in Argentina.
Hey guys. I noticed that whenever I pull down my notification / settings bar the yellows displayed on background stuff looks normal. This is kind of an annoying find, as it shows that the note pro is capable of correct colors
2 screen issues annoying me on my OP 7 Pro.
1. When scrolling on a white background at lowest brightness, there's severe ghosting on anything black. This is more apparent when Night Mode is on. Night mode: More warm, less lightness. Notice the Uber and Uber Eats icons on the app drawer in (attached videos in zip folder). Notice in the Harvey's video, white letters inside the icon get covered by the ghosting around it.
I noticed this since the previous 9.6.10 build. This is still there on OxygenOS 10. Very annoying when using the phone in the dark.
2. At brightness around 30-40%, Night Mode Off, on the lock screen, notice the live wallpaper distorting on dark colors (lower left area). Video attached "lock screen".
I only noticed this since I switched live wallpaper to this particular one. I didn't check out this live wallpaper before OxygenOS 10, so I don't know if this is related to the new build or not.
Running Stable OxygenOS 10.0, 90Hz, DC dimming ON, Adaptive brightness ON, P3 color gamut. My camera is the Red Magic 3, so poor quality and 60fps video. This is much more noticeable on the OP display. Crank up brightness on your screen when viewing the videos.

I was using a GS6 for 2.5 years as my daily driver, never noticed this. Noticed it just a month into using the OP 7 Pro. Plus, the GS6 screen can get even more dim in the dark than the OP7 Pro screen.

weird thing is that on the lock screen wallpaper looks normal when you barely bring down the notification shade.
Im facing some display issues in my poco x4 pro 5g Indian variant
in dark mod or when opening a plane black photo in gallery the display not becoming fully black I can see some dark white areas in display but in certain brightness level only (20-50%) and little bit screen flickering.
No issue with always on display black areas are completely black
Is that a ui bug or hardware issue?
anyone facing the same?
Yeah I also got this issue. I don't have a link but you can look for "Oreo Colorizer" I don't specifically know how this works but I think it's a software issue.

This has a couple of solutions, sometimes it works, both options work for me tho. but i rarely or never use darkmode cause the blacks are 100% black and looks ugly in my opinion, i rather have a dark gray dark mode, but still i wouldn't use it that much
the screen is the best screen you'll get for mid range phones the screen pretty much is a flagship level screen. So i don't care much of the spots cause colors, contrast, the deep blacks it gives are perfect.

Hello,
I've been using Redmi Note 11 Pro plus for the past few days. I had been using a Samsung m30s before and compared to that the display experience in Redmi Note 11 Pro has been dull.
Last day I noticed something. I had tried using a completely black wallpaper and then I noticed how the black was not proper. Colour was leaching out through sides of display like a backlight bleed.
I had seen previous reports of a possible Redmi Note 11 Pro Display problem which made me do a display test on the phone. Then I noticed that this bleed like effect was present also for white as well as dark grey colors.
However these went away after I restarted my phone. So I wanted to know whether anyone else experienced this Redmi Note 11 Pro problem.
<Moderator Edit>: Self-promoting video link deleted.
This is a software issue that only occurs on MIUI. On custom roms this problem doesn't show up and the screen is completely black.
Probably a software issue, mine is noticeable when swiping the brightness while on the black screen test raging from 8 - 15% of brightness where I can see the bleeding
Hello I was planning on getting this phone (Redmi note 11 pro 5g) but after researching a bit I came across this thread. I heard this is an issue that affects both models. Is this an issue that affects only certain units or do most have amoled problems? Does this only show in 120hz mode? Thanks!

My device has no such problem. I generated a #00000000 image using an app and tried viewing it at max brightness in a dark room and the screen legit turns off. Its kinda freaky to see a display turn off when you know its on and expect some bleed. I come from lcd so thats what I expected. Needless to say I'm glad my model wasn't defective.

I have compared the Redmi Note 11 Pro Plus 5g (peux) with last years top model Redmi Note 10 Pro Max and this display seems to be more colorful and vibrant compared to last years model. That one seemed more washed out in the same display modes.

The issue is not present at 100% brightness. Try keeping the image, and play around with the brightness settings from 0 to 100. Then, you can notice that at certain percentages, the backlight bleeds quite heavily. In my device, it's at around 30-50. Some other users report that it's happening to them at 40-60.

Tried it and still fine.
I have the same problem with a redmi note 10 pro, with brightness between 0 an 19%
At 20% and more, the black si.. black

hi does this affect daily usage? I tend to use my phone a lot at night in bed so it would suck if the bleeding is that bad. How noticeable is it when watching content with dark scenes/backgrounds?

On my day to day usage, I find that it's not noticeable at all. However, If you're watching content that has pure black elements, it is very noticeable. It's inconvenient, but usually when it happens I just turn down the brightness a little bit and it's gone.
I wouldn't say it's a deal breaker, I still think the phone is a pretty good value, but buyers beware. There's some hope that it'll be fixed in an update at some point but I wouldn't hold my breath. Just be aware that your mileage may vary.
Is this an issue that is present on 60 or 120hz? Saw a couple of posts on other threads that say issue disappears on 60hz. Is it the same on yours?

The problem still persists regardless of whether or not I set 60 or 120hz. On my device, at least.
Guys, try this app called Oreo colorizer. This solves the issue.
It forces the display to shift its color space to DCI-P3 instead of the default sRGB according to the below XDA thread.
So the issue is software related. NOT HARDWARE. Hope Xiaomi solves this by updates in future.

Oreo Colorizer uses an invisible system overlay operating in wide color gamut that forces the display to shift its color space to DCI-P3 instead of the default sRGB. Optimized Rendering only affects apps that use SurfaceFlinger (IE: 99% of all...
