New Nexus 7 tonight, I notice white spots on the bottom (right side of screen), see picture.
Confirmed with another nexus 7 owner they didn't have those spots...
Is this normal or should I RMA it?
that is called "light bleed". I don't know the extend of damage that it will do if you keep this nexus 7..
but if I were you..I will just return and get another nexus 7 with no light bleed .....
almost all tablets have had this problem...including the ipads....

Yes... not normal light bleed. Looks like they didn't align something right.

When I'm pressing my fingers on the screen, I can see a clear and quite bad screen ripple... Is this the lifting problem that people are talking about?
Thanks

If you mean by pushing on the edge of the screen then yes that is result of the screen lift.

Every nexus 7 I have had has the screen lift and all of them have the ripples effect, mostly on the left side
Yeah it's mainly on the corners, with the screen lift am I supposed to be able to physically see the screen lifting round the corners?
Thanks for the fast replies btw

I got my Nexus 4 yesterday, and just today I've noticed that when in dark screen (locked, or simply the settings page) and outside of the house I see kind of weird black lines on the whole display screen, going form top to bottom making some 3 small square shapes after the others all over the display, can be obviously seen when display facing bright sky outside in almost any angel, but in room light barely can see them with certain angels.
will make a photo of it asap.
p.s. I've never seen a notification light yet on the middle bottom of my device.
Anyone same "problem" with display?
Its the digitizer.

Could you link an example image from goolge or something to make sure it is what I mean? can't seem to find something alike..is this normal?
I can confirm that its the digitizer I too have found that with this phone it is very easy to see even with weak light I see it when I get the right angle. It looks like you described but the vertical lines look more like dots arranged neatly than lines on mine.

Just noticed the same thing on my device. Thought I was tripping out maaaaaaan

Its the digitizer, its normal. I think its because of the "zero gap" technology thing ; the display and the digitizer are right below the glass.
As for the notification light, download Lightflow from the Play Store. Works great.

For the notification LED, make sure you enable the " Pulse notification light" option in Settings->Display. Using Lightflow on top will give you lots of customisation options though.

I am now noticing the same issue in my nexus 4. If it is because of zero gap technology then why it is not there in iPhone 5 and other phones which use this technology?
I also notice that my brother who got the phone some time in November 2012 is not having this issue. I got the phone in Jan 2013...is it issue with only the new lots?
What google and LG are doing to address this issue?

I have 2 Nexus 4 (one for sister and one for girlfriend), which were both purchased last week and arrived this week. Both their serial number starts with 301K.
Here is the weird part: for one of the phone, it is very easy to see under the glass. When there is adequate lighting and the display is off, it is very easy to the see the circuit-like component just under the glass. This is not true for the other phone. The display also has a more of a yellow tint than the normal one. Otherwise, the display looks and works fine.
Anyone else also experiencing this, or know what's the cause of this issue?
Thanks!
This is how the pattern looks like under the screen:

It's because the touch screen sensor (I don't know the correct term) is closer. Basically it isn't an issue, it's a design. Nothing to worry about.

But it's not nearly as visible on the other Nexus 4 that I have
I recently had my nexus 4 screen repaired on the replacement part there is a 90 day warranty that is still going on. However I have started to see small white dots that appear when the screen shows lighter colors. I did not see this before it was repaired. I brought it back and they said that it wasn't a problem with the LCD and didn't replace the piece. But it seems to have gotten worse and there are these dots in other places. Does anybody have any idea how this could be fixed or what the problem is? Thank you.
