Just reading the review of the unit at GSM Arena and they mention that the LCD suffers from "ghosting" due to poor response times. Is this the case? Is it anywhere near as bad as the awful display on the early Sony PSP?
Not for me. The display is excellent!
I got a japanese import psp when it first came out, the screen was alright!
I doubt that these new lcd's have ghosting issues, can anyone confirm?

I certainly haven't heard anyone else complaining about it. Someone even did a page about how the Tab display is howevermany times (it was into the hundreds or thousands) faster response the tab is compared to the iPad, so I doubt this is a universal problem. Maybe they got a bad unit ?
My bad... having loaded a wallpaper with lots of white lines on a dark background I do indeed see some ghosting. But its not distracting in any way and very minor. Under normal use completely unnoticable.

I can live with that, thanks for checking!
Has anyone else noticed that the screen doesn't always work when it is layed down flat on a surface. Was just wondering why that is.
For me it works fine but some times it lags, i think it's just a software bug. but what i can tell you that this screen has really bad ghosting effect, i remember like on those PSP's, ghosting really notices whit black color

+1 ghosting with anything black on lighter background is really really bad on this screen, i've never seen it this bad anywhere before tbh! but tbh i dont take much notice of it while i'm mid-game in action in a really good game, so not so much an issue.
I'm really picky about my device screens and I've been noticing that the top part of the screen in landscape is darker then the rest on white colors. This is especially annoying in portrait. I've asked a couple people if they could see it they say it's not there but I swear that it is. I was just wondering if anyone else has experienced/is experiencing this. Thanks!

Hi.
You're not alone, take a look here and here.
Cheers,

Anyone else notice if you scroll up and down on any screen, it causes the top and bottom of the screen to warp and get bigger and smaller?
I really notice it when scrolling through cells, try scrolling up and down without lifting your finger really fast on any screen with cells and you'll notice the warping.
Idk if this is a feature or a bug or I'm having a vivid LSD flashback...but I didn't see this happening on the new moto x or the HTC one m8 so I was jw!
I've showed this to a couple different people now and they can see it too. It's kind of disorienting, anyone know a way to turn this off?
I haven't bought my own Droid Turbo but I also noticed this while playing with the phone at Verizon today.
Have you performed the software update?
I'm thinking it might be how the screen refreshes. I'm noticing this as well
can someone post a video ??
Can't reproduce this, please record it
I notice this issue too. Looks like the screen stretches and collaoses at different areas as you scroll vertically. If there is no fix for it i might return my phone makes me almost motion sick

Try setting animation to "off" in all 3 places in Developer tab, I think it helps with image warp.

Turned off all animations and the effect is less obvious but still visible. Bummer.
Turn the phone in landscape
In landscape the phone is unusable because of this issue. I can't believe that they let these out in the wild like this.
Yeah, it's really starting to bother me too. I'm a little OCD though.
So I'm guessing the Nexus 6 will also have this issue as well being they are using the same screen technology (supposedly). Kinda sucks.
So have we figured out if this is an issue with all models or just some models?
I wonder if it's a hardware or software issue. Does it happen in all apps or just some?

Seems like a hardware issue. Possibly the way the screen refreshes.
I really hope I'm wrong though. It's the only thing making me want to return it.
*Edit* I'm wondering if it may happen because the dpi is so high. Maybe with root we could play around with some display settings to see.
So I guess a lot of people just aren't noticing it? Because when I Google around this thread is the only discussion I find.
(I don't own the phone...I was planning on buying it but observed this issue with the display model and decided to wait).
EDIT: You can see the issue briefly here, as he scrolls around in Chrome:

I was hoping it was just a Chrome rendering issue but it seems that's not the case.

That's what I'm thinking as well. It only happens if you scroll at the right speed, not too fast not too slow. I think a lot of people just don't notice it or don't really think about it or care when it happens
I still can't see it, on mine or in the youtube vid.
I noticed this on mine but I figured it was an animation built in to Android when scrolling (like the word bunch/bounce when hitting the end of a page) but that I just hadn't really noticed it before on other phones because the animation wasn't as smooth, screen wasn't as sharp and screen wasn't as big. I don't notice any weird trailing or stretching when watching videos or playing games so not sure that it would be an issue with the display.

That's the main reason I started this thread haha. I googled around and couldn't find any evidence of this being a new animation. They could definitely play it off as a bouncy animation if that wasn't what they were going for. Looks like it might be a bug though...
Yeah, I don't see the warping in the video or on either of the 2 Turbos in my house. The only thing I can see in the video is the weird lines going diagonally across the screen which is pretty much unavoidable when trying to record video of a screen. The only thing I see on my own phones is that it gets a bit blurry if you scroll too fast.

I'm really hoping it's a software fix. After using the phone a couple of days I'm getting killer battery life. I called Motorola and they told me to call back and speak to tear 2 tech support. Maybe they will confirm a software fix can set things straight. I'll let you guys know if I find out anything helpful.
I'm getting some really, really bad ghosting on my N910C. When pixels on the screen change from black (off), there's a lag of about a 1/3 of a second before they turn on again, which is leading to some horrible looking black smearing.
Is anyone else experiencing this? I've never seen it before on the Note 2 or 3, but have read about it happening on the S4. Might I have a defective panel, or is this just the state of Samsung's amoleds at the moment?
It's how it works, you can't do much about it and it's only noticeable in zero brightness. You will get used to it on some days. You can find the link on my sig regarding the same thing In s4.
Hi,
Can anyone please check with this image and 10% brightness to see if there's any ghosting?
Best regards
