So which ever way I rotate the screen there is a dark tint down that side of the screen where the controls are.
It's this supposed to be there?
It doesn't show up on videos or anything but I've never noticed it until now.

Today I noticed that there is a lighted grid within the display which can only be seen when in sunlight, even when phone is sleeping (screen off) is this normal, has anyone else seen it?

This is indeed normal: I have it and others too. I don't know the exact cause, but I thought it had to do with the "touch layer" which is placed in the glass.
It's just weird that it is visible when screen is off

The capacative layer needs metal to know where your finger is. Metal reflects sunlight.
I have a rev 11 nexus 4, 16GB.
I recently noticed this odd pattern on the screen. It is visible even when the LCD is turned off.
When the screen is on, I can also see these vertical lines/bands. They are especially visible on dark gray backgrounds.
I notice the pattern more when there is a reflection on the screen.

Has anyone else noticed this? Is it an inherent side effect of the LCD technology used?
Thanks,
Yes, many have noticed it.

It's just the digitizer - nothing usual.

Thanks guys!
Just chiming in my agreement. It's normal for this type of panel.

It does, but not that much. Watch the video in this post. Towards the end, the reviewer does a crush comparison with the s3
I tested my own display with the same gradient chart shes using and it looks the same I can see to 3 on that chart. Ive also ome across some netflix movies where the shadows clip on the S4, but not on my LCD. Again, nothing major, but its still there.....atleast on my device.
A little here, has been a thing on every OLED/AMOLED device I've ever owned.
No biggie.

Also when brightness is low and I'm on settings when I'm scrolling down I can see as if the fonts is bleeding and colors are a bit pinkish. Normal or should I exchange?

There are some of us, me included, who see a red tint to blacks in a dark room. The red subpixels seem to stay on. Some folks say they have pure blacks even in the dark.
Now I dont see pink text when scrolling, but maybe your eyes are sensitive enough to see the red from blacks bleed into the text.
Do you see a red tint in blacks in low light? If so, that might explain the pink text
Sad to say, the S4 actually clips more than my galaxy nexus. A clear indication of this is in Phase Beam live wallpaper. The S4 has a trouble doing a smooth gradient on the purple shadow on the lower right hand of the wallpaper. It just shows a blocky purple shape in this area. The Gnex shows a nice gradient. Bit of a disappointment
Made a video of it. Went into AT&T today and checked the display models and both did the same thing. Might be s big problem. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yL5TV8kuxac&feature=youtube_gdata_player

When scrolling through xda with the dark theme enabled, I noticed the white text has a pinkish tint that will go away when the scrolling stops. Tried on two other apps and this is the case as well. Is anyone else seeing this happen?
