Hi guys. Was wondering if u guys notice, experienced or this is normal about the camera led on the Note 3. I notice the led flash was abit yellowish, tinted, not completely white. I've compared it with other phone brands from my bro n there's a noticeable difference between them. Just want to know opinions before going down to service centre. Thanks.
Yes it is yellowish compared to my old i9100.. but works much better in the dark i find.

Agreed with u that it works better in the dark. Thought it's a hardware problem. Thanks! ☺

Yellowish tint for natural colors when shooting pictures in the dark.
(yellowish color imitates sunlight better than cold blue, probably thats why)

So on low brightness the whites seem a bit yellow. Can anyone confirm this?

Its a common problem, at 0% brightness white is a tad yellow but still its much better than having blue/green or pink tint.I've tested lots of S3's in various stores all shows same phenomenon so getting your set swapped wont solve any purpose.

Well even at high brightness settings it looks a bit yellow. When I tilt the phone it looks more white and when I tilt it back you can clearly see the white is a bit yellow.

Yes its a "Bit" yellow on low brightness but on high brightness mine is pure white, its common with AMOLED they are unable to attain LCD whites.However this doesn't bother me much because I'm used to it now, keep in mind its not an tint screen is tuned bit warmer.
Ahh so it isn't just me

You bet!
Well.. It even seems to be a pretty pink compared to the GS Plus. Both at full brightness.

I think it's configured this way because blue pixels expire the quickest in amoled screens </not expert opinion>.
In either case, past phones have been able to use color controls like supercurio's app to change the tint. (And, by then you might've gotten used to it anyway.)

Sorry couldn't resist lol. My Spell Wrecker does that too.
Does it matter which screen setting you have enabled in the Settings app or is it on all of them?

I just checked it against my Note and mine is pinkish. It isn't distinguishable when not doing the comparison though.
Sent from my GT-I9300
Stop comparing displays and enjoy your S3.
I didn't notice it before the comparison and I don't notice it now. Only during. It is a non issue for me
This phone is great. No complaints here.

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

Anybody got this? In low brightness some darker elements(specially gray) start become a little purplish
Also the colors seem less saturated in the default screen mode than the s3(also in standard) i thought i would be the opposite, is my screen defective or is this normal
I tried google but all i get are galaxy nexus results(purple tint)

Welcome to S4. Every galaxy S4 has this. Please refer to other threads on how to get rid of this smearing through software.
Sent from my GT-I9500 using xda premium
The OP doesn't mention smearing.
This is a different issue to the smearing problem.
When the brightness is on low greys become purple. I have had 4 different S4s (all had to be replaced due to screen issues) and every single one had this problem on low brightness.
IMO there is no such thing as a perfect S4 screen!
I have finally settled on my 4th replacement and this one is still not great but I'm sick of returning them.
I have a pink tint at the top of this screen and also all the sensors, LED and front camera are misaligned in the casing, All over to the left.
Samsung have REALLY failed on the Quality Control of this device.
So it seems universal, well i will have to turn off auto brightness and use brightness at 30%
Any of u guys came from the s3? Do the s4 colors seem a little less saturated to u guys? I have them both side by side and it seems so

Yes. I had s3 before and the less saturation on S4 is intentional by Samsung. According to some detailed comparison, the colors of s4 are more accurate. It seems odd at first because our eyes are used to the oversatured screen of s3.

If you hold it in direct sunlight you will notice that its not black on the front it is a dark royal blue. Has any one notice this besides me.

S4 is the same. I know that doesn't help you, but it was well documented with the "Black" S4s.

Just held mine under a very bright lamp and it looks black. I'll confirm that tomorrow (hopefully, if the sun is out ) and let you know!

It's black in most lighting conditions.. only if you shine sunlight directly onto it, you can notice a slight navy-blue tint. It's definitely more black than the S4, it's not at iPhone 5S black level, but it's black enough for a Galaxy device, when compared to the S4.
The color reproduction is horrific and hurts me eyes. I already used comfort mode and tried color adjustment in accessibility. It didn't help. My previous note 4 was amazing. I can't stand this.

Check out the app called Color Screen Filter, this will run and you can change the Alpha, and RBG colors. I have not been able to get my "perfect" setting yet, but getting closer.
If the colors hurt your eyes, you can always use black and white mode [emoji38]

Accessibility - vision - screen color adjustment - manual.
Move the cursor around till you find a color scheme that suites you
Hope this helps
You can use higher (white) Kelvin bulb.
Usually it's between 2700-6500.
Try daylight (5000-6500k) bulb.
BTW, my eyes are nearly blind under 2700k.
