I have only seen 4 galaxy tab 7.7's so far and I noticed all 4 of them really have bad white levels as compared to my galaxy note, disabled the auto power saving and there is a difference in white levels but its still not even close to the galaxy note at the same brightness level. Even at brightness 25% on the note the vs 100% on the tab 7.7shows 'dimmer'whites. This is not a rant but I'm just asking if the screens are calibrated that way or should I keep looking?
Also I noticed that the mdine engine oon the tab provides oversharpening to a lot of my photos and its so obvious and makes the images look bd, supercurio has the same findings.
It is a pretty big screen so it may be they limited the brightnes to save battery power. While the claim is that OLED takes less power than LCD that is not always true. When displaying white, OLED tech uses like 4X as much power as LCD. The power saving comes in when displaying images with medium to darker colors.
What is the "mdine engine"? Is this something that can be bypassed by using a different picture viewing app?
It is amazing how Samsung seems to always add some crappy image "enhancement" like DnIE or such crap. Why can't they just leave our images alone, as we meant them to be? It is freakin' OLED man. You don't need any contrast or sharpness enhancement you knuckleheads! OLED by nature is sharp and has great contrast! Duh!
I don't know. My 7.7 is super bright, sharp and with way warmer colors than my Note.

I'm thinking the samr thing that samsung might ne limiting how bright the whites can go duebto the screen size but based on what I've seen on samoleds some screens juat put out better white levels, not really brighter but whiter.
For the mdine its running system wide.

The samoled plus tends to have more warmer colors than the samoled, is the whites on your tab 7.7 'whiter' than on the note at the same brightness level?

Yes I believe so, Supercurio knows more about that stuff.
EDIT:
simulated example done in photoshop, anyone with the tab7.7 and better photoshop skills feel free to redo this simulated image
Perhaps one of the other reason that the 7.7's screen isn't quite as bright, apart from the obvious power saving reasons, is an effort to possibly reduce the OLED degradation (burn-in) effect.
Either way, although I certainly noticed out of the box that my 7.7 wasn't as bright as my Note (or even my GS2 for that matter!), I was never really bothered by it because (especially when you use movie mode) the colour reproduction is very accurate, and paired up with the contrast levels, it's still fantastic!
I guess, to me, white doesn't necessarily mean I need to put on a pair of sunglasses while looking at my screen lol!
I just wanted to know if the norm has lower white levels, what bothers me more is added sharpening on some images.

I havent but id imagine thats gonna give a yellowish cast on the entire screen. I didnt get the tab yet as the store units I tried had very obvious screen problems. Gonna wait for a the next batch to arrive.

Yellowish? Not at all! At least not with my unit anyway. Sure it makes the screen generally warmer in colour, but IMO, more than anything, it makes the colours look more accurate and natural.
Give it a try! You never know until you do...

Well ever since the Galaxy S changing the color mode to movie mode gives a yellowish cast, this is probably dependent on the calibration on the screen we get in the first place. I saw a friend's Tab7.7 the other day and his white levels were really brighter than my Galaxy Note. FWIW, its still a luck of the draw when it comes to color calibration on the screen. But thanks for that tip, when I'll purchase the Tab I'll make sure to also check out movie mode and see if it hits my requirements.

Very bright noticed the same with the Note ,
Nexus was somewhat easier on the eyes at night,
But probably like you I like a very dim screen at night.
When the brightness is turned all the way down on the 7.7,
is any banding or other issues seen like many report on the Note?
Blacks are black I'm sure but how are greys that are near black.
On the Nexus they were fine, but on the Notes I seen they could have been darker?
Well i just noticed the dreaded screen smearing/purple haze on my new note 3 when i had the brightness turned all the way down, so i decided to check my new S5 and guess what its there too!
FU samsung how can they not pick up on this???
Yes there are fixes but it shouldn't be happening in the first place if you want to test yours out download the pic below, set brightness to 0 and zoom in on the pic and you will notice pink/purple smearing between the black and grey colours when moving the pic around.
Hmm wonder why they made all the menu bars green? now you know.
Don't see any problem in mine.

You need to have the screen brightness all the way down and make sure your looking real closely.
Out of the S4, note 3 and the s5 Samsung has seemed to make it the less noticeable on the S5.
What you could be seeing is the after image of the screen. You're seeing pink shade because of the way RGB is showing the color grey. You're seeing smearing because you could be moving the image around quite fast and the display is not fast enough to trail your fingers.
I followed your instructions and could see nothing that you are speaking of.
I have also previously owned a Note 3 and did not experience any "purple smearing" either.
In my opinion you are grossly overreacting.

I started the "infamous" thread over a year ago http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2252445
Despite some thinking it was a software issue, it's simply a hardware issue with the panel.
The smearing occurs due to the native refresh times of the panel when going from completely off to dark shades, I.e black to greys etc.
The reason it wasn't an issue on older amoled screens was that the pixels were not completely off when displaying black, which is why in a dark room you could see a glow to blacks and also the "infamous streaks and blobs".
On the newer samsung amoled screens black is completely black, the pixels are not illuminated.
Samsung are just using cheap panels.
I spent a lot of money on an oled samsung tv there was the same issue. Putting a film on like sin city would highlight it. I returned the tv.
^S5 is the latest, so it's definitely new. So, was it really the panel?
What application requires one to view a dark grey image at 0 brightness zoomed in at 100%?
Come now, this thread is surely to attract the likes of trolls, or have I missed something?
I have no smearing, probably its all in your shorts lol.

Ok lets be realistic, the people saying their S5's are not doing it are ether one of 2 things,....
1. Plain stupid and don't know how to adjust their phones display to reproduce the smearing, example: "homer285 What application requires one to view a dark grey image at 0 brightness zoomed in at 100%?"
2. or in denial and don't want to believe their perfect s5's could have such a flaw.
Because all S5s and note 3s for that matter are all shipped with the same display hardware tech, and no you don't have some super special s5 that has different hardware from everyone else cause your awesome .
Now saying that there are fixes for the problem, one can use a screen colour adjuster to keep the "off black pixils" turned slightly on witch helps big time but kills ur battery dead.

Not black on whole screen, but you may see pure black parts when you watch videos that are not on HD scale. Also, around 95% of movies have at least one dark or low-light scene.

Most of us are neither of those two. Just because you experienced it, it doesn't mean that everyone has. Phones are not made in a single batch/production date. It's impossible to produce millions of S5 in a single day anyway. All products sold internationally have the so-called batch date/number to trace possible problems. My previous S3 have the black blotches when screen is dark and viewed under very low light, but my friend's has none. Now, my S5 doesn't have any screen problems.

Have fun with your "smearing" lol
I can confirm this too on my SM-G900F 16GB model... The Note 2 and S3 i owned didn't have this, but the S4 does and now the S5 also....
When having a black background (and lowered brightness) you'll notice it when swiping through the homescreen pages.
I don't know what causes this but i doubt it can't be fixed, yet Samsung continuous playing it their own way by ignoring the problem (the 'anti-smearing' update they once released was a joke)
This should only be a problem at night or in low light environments(typically when screen brightness is very low). I'm pretty sure it's a hardware limitation of Pentile AMOLED screens with the diamond sub pixel matrix, and thus affects all GS5's at low/very low brightness levels.
I've suggested this a couple of times on here, I'll say it again: 1.Change the screen mode to Cinema or Pro Photo.
2. (More importantly) Download Lux(free) and change the White Balance to Fluorescent. This slightly tints the blacks, and greatly reduces the smearing effect.

The S3 had a PenTile AMOLED screen and it wasn't affected by this. AFAIK it's due to the Diamond Pixel layout Samsung uses on the latter Galaxy series.

Basically, by saying to turn down the screen all the way down and looking closely, in a dark room, you are asking somebody to look for a problem that never happens in a real world scenario anyways?

Hey guys, can someone else with the samsung note 4 exynos model try their phone in direct sunlight on auto brightness and tell me if the screen kicks into a super bright mode with high contrast and strange colours? You have to be in direct sunlight with auto brightness turned up. I'm getting paranoid about this and not sure whether to swap mine. I know samsung have just added assertive displays to the exynos models and possibly now snapdragon but not sure if this is whats going on.. it almost makes some colours look fluro.
Yes it does, it is normal.

Hmm just took my samsung tab s outside in bright light and it did the same must just be much more pronounced on the qhd display
At first I didn't like it, comes it makes the phone look all weird, but after a while I've really come to like it, especially when driving, I've reliazed, never once was it hard to view the display. Which IMO is awesome! I've never had a smartphone I could always accurately see the screen, in every type of light
I do outdoor hiking and I use the phone for navigation and taking photos. You do have to set the auto brightness to On for it to boost the screen brightness but it triggers after u turn on the phone screen instead if consistently. Battery is not an issue because I carry spare batteries
Anyway to keep the screen on at its Max brightness consistently? II don't care about color distortions either as long as I can see things!

im looking for method how make super brightness constantly... but no luck... anybode know how? using stock rooted mm
Let me start by telling you that I am a fan of LG screens and lcds and I can't stand the AMOLEDs on cellphones and the unnatural colors. I have an LG TV, LG monitor and had G2 and the G3. I am a new owner of the G4 that I just purchased yesterday.
The reason I switched to this phone is to have better camera and better visibility in sunlight which is where I work. I work outside and need good sunlight visibility and take a lot of photos and videos outside.
The problem I have and I'm sure all the G4 owners will have this, is that the color of the screen fades out especially the greys and the blacks on screen. I'm not having the typical light bleed here. the whole screen fades out almost turning very very grey with texts and other colors fade out in color.
Its doing it on a cloudy day as well. Ive swtiched the phone out to a new G4 because of this problem and the issue is still there with the new phone. I'm really shocked by this because all of the reviews going around the net are raving how its visibility is great in sunlight!
I think LG messed up really bad here, made the display awesome indoors and wasn't fully aware that the lcd is sensitive to sunlight.
I was wondering if anyone else is noticing this problem.
To do the test, go to a random website or some site with text which is more noticeble than other colors(grey texts turn really white so its a better test), hold the phone out for 3-5 seconds then look at the phone. You'll notice that the texts are very grey or even white. It has to be done in natural sunlight. It wont work in indoor lighting.
Then turn the phone upside down for 3-5 seconds then look at the text again to see it come back to dark black or visible color.
Please tell me I'm not the only one noticing this....
I might never come back to LG after this one... At least for my cellphones...
I don't even think it's fixable with firmware updates... oh and my brightness is on 100% when I test it. I've tried it with auto as well and same thing with the first G4 and the new G4 I switched out.
I would hate to pay a restocking fee of $50 just to return the phone.... LG what should I do?!
Yes - I've seen this twice when outdoors at work this week. Hoping it's a software issue they can address? What has been said in the past?
Thanks for the reply. I hope its a software issue as well but I doubt it... I looked all over the internet and not one thing has been said...
I can't believe all the reviews are raving about the visibility outside.... how is this better than G3??? even the G2 had better visibility
I think its like the Note 4 it goes into a high contrast mode, but I use Lux Light for auto brightness and it doesnt do it anymore
Agree on that.
Additional the display isnt as bright as LG made me belive, my G2 is noticable more bright than my G4 ?

This is a design by LG - to lessen the contrast in direct sunlight, so that you can supposedly can see more. If you cover the light sensor, it'll revert. It only does it at 98% brightness or higher.
It doesn't help me, but it's doing what it's supposed to..

Yeah it doesn't detect it tell the lux gets really high, but if you take a flashlight to your sensor it will turn on. But either way its still easy enough for me to read I dunno guess I got good eyesight
I just took whole bunch of pictures of my kids at the pool full sun. I have a nexus 5 and 6 and the G4 is almost in another league as far as outdoor visibility imo. At least with the camera app. Haven't had the phone for long so will have to report back if I see this issue

The funny thing is that when I called LG from the Tmobile store they didnt even know about it. Thats why they swapped out the phone for me. Good CS
I have been using the phone for 2 weeks now and just finish travel.. I have to say the screen is amazing. My background is in home theaters hobby so I know how an accurate screen looks like.
Xiaomi mi 6 screen is so good that I was watching Netflix throughout my plane journey and my Uber ride at midnight. The lighting 4000+ levels of adjustment is perfectly tuned and had great auto brightness throughout. It's a real joy to look at the screen. The feeling is similar to my nexus 5.
Having the full rgb matrix helps everything be sharp.
Colors so accurate yet vivid!
The back light is very even and uniform
The white point accuracy is near 6500k which is near perfect grey point (colors on standard mode)
Sunlight view is so convenient at 600nits +
Touch response.. Well not one plus 5 fast but similar to nexus 5 after some comparison
10/10 for the screen.. The best 1080p panel I've ever seen on a phone
Not only does it look so good... The feel is sooooo smooth and so fast, it's like gliding.
It's beautiful.
B4 this Mi6 I had a OPX wich had a awsome AMOLED screen. And when I bought this Phone I was afraid to get unhappy with the screen but no! It is very good Indeed! I still feel the differnce when things get darker, ofc.

I noticed that if you put your phone on a pillow or on the bed and then use touch screen test app you can notice that if you try putting more than 3 or 4 fingers it doesn't register them very well and it's hard for the phone to keep track of them but when you hold the phone in your hand everything works fine.

Thats fully normal. Modern touchscreens, are capacitive rather than resistive, so that means that you should be able to interact with it as long as you can bring a small current to the screen where you want to touch. So hold it with your hand and the circuit is closed, otherwise the touches will not be registered properly.
But it doesn't happen with other phones.
I also have the LG g3 and xiaomi redmi note 4 and they don't have this problem.

Near 6500k perfect white point
Loving the phone.
The battery is astonishing, the sound is excellent, the camera is good and the screen is super smooth!
What is NOT pretty is the micro scratches.
I have the Blue Ceramic and even though I've been Ultra careful, there are tiny scratches appearing on the back.
I've NEVER used cases and this phone feels so good in the hand BUT I'm Going to have to start using one here.... And I can't stand it.
