Looks rather creepy to me.
And I don't understand how a low quality and distorted iPhone is relevant to Android.

+1, No offense, it does look a little creepy, but cheers for the info.

Thats probably the eyes. Poser users want to see that there are poseable eyes in the figure, even though the google droid just has blank balls where his eyes are.
Rest assured, you can have solid colored eyes as well, and provided was green, white and black, the most common solid eye colors we see. (You can see that in the logo image on top of the first image.)
The phone behind him is actually a generic mobile phone... the point of it in the image is to solidify the fact that its the android robot in viewers eyes.
And no offense taken at all. The point of adding so many options to him is so end users can make him sad, happy, creepy, whatever. That maximizes the use you can get from him.

Gotcha. Cheers, great stuff, I wish you luck.

Any comments on the notification LED?

There is an LED at the bottom of the phone, but there is a dearth of photos showing how bright it is or whether it can emit various colors. Any other comments out there?

Wow if there was led notifications it would be the perfect phone.

I'm really interested about this feature ! If anyone have an information tell us!

Pretty sure it's a similar RBG LED as the Galaxy Nexus, you can see it's at the bottom of the phone below the screen. At the vert least we know it's there as the manual says it is!

Take it for what it's worth.

I think the GNex set the standard on this one, the ED will be a part of the bottom bezel.

2nd paragraph neat the bottom they state its RGB but I will look more.

Bummer. I wish more people would center the FFC. Or at least angle the camera so you don't have to offset the phone while video chatting or taking pictures. The FFC on the Nexus 4 is all the way on the right.

[Q] One-sided color shift when looking at the screen at an angle

Have you noticed such thing on your G2 device: when looking at the screen from the RIGHT side, at an angle, there's a color shift, especially when looking at an uniform color background (red, blue). For example - when you look at the red pattern it becomes yellowish at the very high angle (almost flat), BUT this thing doesn't happen when you look at the screen from the opposite direction (left). I have a 16 GB version.
I have attached some pictures and would be glad if you could check it and confirm whether it's present on your device (display/dead pixel test software is helpful here to display one color on the whole screen - like https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gombosdev.displaytester). And also - which model you have - 16 or 32 GB?

This is also present on my device, but i really doesn't pay much attention to it. In real day-to-day use i don't see it. Many reviews stated that there is a color change on G2, so it is an issue for most of people on G2, just some people see it, some people don't.

If you wear polarized sunglasses it's actually impossible to see the screen when in landscape, this and lack of wireless charging are the only two things I can fault on this device and honestly the former is pretty minor imo.

Thanks for your answers, so unless anyone says he doesn't have this issue I think it's just specific to the LCD panel used in this phone.

I have a blue shift to the right and yellow shift or the left. Quirky panel.

Image Retention on new S5?

Just picked up a new white S5 on Friday. Few days later, I am noticing a burned in bar on the lower half of the screen. I am not sure what to make of this? Could this just be an issue with AMOLED panels? It's not very noticeable unless you look for it, but it is definitely there. Would love some opinions on this.

Burn-in (uneven wear to be more accurate) will still happen in any AMOLED device. the technology has improved so it should not appear until quite some time down the road, at least it's supposed to have improved.
Any app that might have kept an static image for a long time there?

Well before venturing ideas, I'd like to get a good idea of what you are seeing. I'm sure that it is glaringly obvious to you since you know it's there now.. but your photos are not close ups or high res.. and you didn't circle the area or describe it in detail. Can you point it out or describe it better?
It might be exactly as the poster above suggests or I can think of three or four other possible causes depending on what the artifact looks like.

LIght Bleed

I got a samsung 4 tab 8 as a part of a promo from comcast (well really I am paying for it in the form of a two year contract).
However, it has a decent amount of light bleed on the lower left side. About the size of a half a quarter. I noticed it when I was in my room with the lights off so it is dim, not dark and the display was only 50% brightness. I was watching a movie and it shows up on the black bar. Being pretty anal this really bugs me.
But is it worth trying to get a warranty repair for? If I had bought this from the store it would be going back, but warranty repair is a different animal.
What do you guys think?

Can you post a picture or a link to a picture of what it looks like? Thanks

What you're asking is pretty much a matter of your own opinion but I can tell you this is not an isolated thing as mine (that came from a major retailer ) and Im sure many others have this problem, so theres a chance youll just get the same thing again unless maybe you're really lucky and they manage to hand pick you one that dont, which may or may not be possible if all the displays from the manufacturer are like this. I can only tell on mine when the screen is all black, but yes its a bit irritating to get this with the Samsung name...

SO this is what I am dealing with. It is viewable from 30% and up in a poorly to dim lit environment. At 50% it is viewable with standard room lighting. It goes invisible if the lighting is good.
