Hi, today I received my OP8Pro and I really like it, but I found something really strange. There are several small black dots on the backside of the phone. Its not possible to wipe them away so they seem to sit UNDER the backpanel .
You wont notice them when not looking a bit closer but in direct light its visible much more -- especially in sunlight.
Do you experience the same issue on your devices?

Hello Guys,
Pretty funny story. Few days ago i've ordered my ASUS transformer and today it has arrived.
OH well minutes after unboxed i noticed big dirty black smash inside the screen.
RIght away taken a ride of two hours to the store and replaced into brand new one.
REV B5 (Same as first one)....
Coming home I noticed from very random angles I can notice like VERY Small, slim black dots which can seen on blue/white etc.. background but not always seen...from specific random angles can be seen..
Is it normal for this screen type? Should I ask the support devision for lab service to fix/replace it? But then means I will need probably wait two weeks...
looking for your words
Thanks a lot!
It is a pattern grid like ###########? I see it faintly when my screen is smudged with hand grease or when I clean the screen and blow my breath on it.
Well besides the patter which i dont know why they did it this way lol i see some very small dots..try open blank white page...and look on the screen from front and random angles closely...see if you can find small dots...?
The faint ###### pattern is the capacitive touch sensing grid.
Those faint black dots are not supposed to be there. Check to make sure that your screen is completely clean, free of smudges. If the black dots are still apparent, then it can be either that you have dead pixels or some particles (maybe dust) trapped between the screen and the glass.
weird...its really extremely small dots...not always even seen..just some times from very specific angles...so think i will just pass it.
For safety emailed the ASUS distributor who in charge for the local warranty service to let him know i see those dots in case if in future i want support for this...
PS: TRY Some blue background and see if you able to see some sort of dots...not even black but dots...
I've thoroughly inspected my Transformer's screen several times since I got it, and I'm happy to say that I've never noticed anything bad besides a bit of light bleed on the bottom left. I'm sorry it's not the same case for you.
Well not big deal... Those dots not really seen in 99.5% of the time so really ok...
besides this dots i had some small creaks of the back plastic... but again this happens to almost every TF owner...
Anyways reported about this small dots to the warranty company of Asus in my country so they aware in case if i decide ask them fix it in future...also asked them for professional opinion about it..for case...
besides this small issues which not even seen most of the time...i am really happy with the TF rock and roll!
Guys, I have a terrible issue with my LG G2's screen. Apparently, it looks like it's gotten some annoying burn-ins, which look like white lines running across the screen. They aren't much of a problem for me, but they have got very annoying in recent time. And, it seems like they are becoming more prominent with time. Here are some pics in order to get a feel of what I'm talking about. Can it be fixed with a display tester app? Please help! This burn-ins are driving me nuts! Didn't pay so much for a flagship handset with screen issues. :crying:
By the way, these burn-ins are most evident on grey backgrounds, as shown in the screenshots with a plain grey wallpaper.

This is very strange.
I was under the impression that LCD screens could not get burn-in.
Maybe what you are experiencing is not burn in.
One of the reasons why i came to this phone because i have had the galaxy s2 with LED display and i got status bar burn in as i have noticed happens to many people with led displays. AMOLED included.
Dont quote me on this but Im pretty sure it must be the reflective foil getting too close or tearing on the back of the LCD at a pressure point. Did your phone LCD take in impacts/heavy pressure or anyoone sit on it?

No, not at all. I take great care of my device. Not once has it fallen, nor be treated with pressure on the screen. Once, my mother happened to sit on my brother's G2, however, but he didn't experience any issues whatsoever. At least no similar burn-ins as on my device.
Weird, get warranty replacement then, still sure its probably the reflective layer, but hard to say what else could cause it to warp, since you say it hasnt suffered any abnormal usage.
I have this problem as well, especially in Hangouts since it's grey in color. Not really a big deal though, as it goes away a few seconds later. Now if it sticks, then that's a problem.

Those weird lines seem to stick. But, I wouldn't want to mess with replacement units, warranty repair etc. If it gets too annoying to handle, my first approach would be the display tester app. Plus, these "burn-ins" are less prominent (almost invisible) in outdoor lighting and do not tend to appear as much (or at all) on different backgrounds than grey.
Hello all! So, lately my G2 has had the left edge of the screen exhibit this weird phenomenon where some pixels in the middle left are lighter than surrounding pixels. It's not noticeable at all in dark environments, but extremely noticeable in white areas. Also, it's been"growing," the original was only on the left side and small, by now (been a few months) it's gotten about twice as big and there's another smaller one on the right side. I was assuming the solution would be a screen replacement, as I've dropped this a few times honestly with no case (No cracks though.) And that's the only reason I can think of for this issue. I want to fix it myself, I'm confident in my abilities to since I'm good with hardware, I'd just like to double check that the screen actually is the problem before sinking cash into replacing it. Can anyone who had a similar issue confirm?
So I have the edge since the 11th now. And every time I have the feeling that the screen is centered to the right side, I notice it extra with a case. As the area between the bezel and the screen is larger on the left side.
This afternoon I looked with an magnifying glass and indeed saw that this was indeed the situation. It is about 0.1 mm or so but oh so annoying. Luckily I can exchange it, however there will be only phones I stock around the 30th. Keeping mine thill then.
Are there others with the same issue?
The attached version is not my phone, but just an example to explain.
To better understand what i mean I attached a picture. I have the black version but you could see it as the black line on the right side of the phone is thinner than on de left, so the screen is essentially to far to the right..
not the best picture for judging...
But I know what you are talking, I have seen a few devices now and all of them were different in terms of screen quality and alignment!
for me, the worst problem is the uneven contrast (darker sides) on most of the screens. i own 3 devices now and all of them have display flaws. two suffer from a yellow tint when tilting, the other screen has a slightly darker left side... :|

I know. When my S6 comes back from warranty repairs I will try to make a picture. The S5 I have laying around can't focus clearly enough.
Well I hope I won't have a replacement with tint issues or such. Because my screen is, aside of the alignment, pretty perfect. Maybe I'm a bit nitpicky but I think that's justified with these kind of price tags.
I still have till the 30th to get used to it or exchange it. An order for a replacement has been made.
People complain about issues of screen color when tilting the device.. When are u ever tilting the device? U should be looking at it dead on anyways.
Honestly I don't see anything from ur picture, maybe ur just crazy.. If it is a little little misaligned who cares.. It's the curve part anyways..

The picture I used is just to explain what i mean with the black lines on my phone. Imagine that picture with no black line on the right of the phone, so the screen blends in with the white. And a bigger black line on the left.
That's what i have, but my phone is black so i cant put it on a picture to explain it.
I can really only tell in a dark room, but there is ever-so-slight light leakage where the glass meets the metal on the bottom of my S7 Edge. I see the slight leakage on the bottom-left and bottom-right. Doesn't bother me much, maybe a little, but my experience with smartphones is you'll be lucky to find one with absolutely flawless everything including screen alignment. It's often not worth exchanging for a new one, which may have other issues. Plus there's the whole issue of setting the phone up from scratch again. My device seems to be working fine (this is my 5th day with it) so far, so I won't be exchanging it.
After reading this thread I checked mine and its is misaligned like you described. I then went to Samsung and they checked and said that its normal. Now that I see it, its driving me crazy.

Same
Same **** with me. My screen is also misaligned and its driving me nuts with this phone price i dont know what to do about it. I have s7 edge btw same **** all over with the s6edge. I really didnt notice it when using the phone. I noticed it when im checking out the phone looking how pretty it is then when i turned on the screen i noticed that the left side of my screen has a thinner black bezel and when i look on the right it has a little bitty gap.
Hi Everyone,
I bought the Le Pro 3 from Amazon when it was on sale. I've been using it for a few days, and while I love it as a phone, I have some concerns about the display. It appears that the very bottom of the screen (when holding it in portrait mode) is a little bit dimmer than the rest of the screen. I could be imagining it, but it's like the opposite of light bleed (dark light bleed?). Has anyone experienced this? Should I get a replacement unit? The other thing I have noticed is that it appears that the bezel surrounding the screen is a little uneven, meaning that the right bezel appears wider than the left one. The included screen protector might be making it seem like one is larger than the other, but I thought I would ask if anyone else has noticed this too. Thanks!

The brightness on mine is pretty uniform, didn't notice any uneven levels of brightness in any particular region. I suppose it's worth getting a replacement over, might as well since you're within the 30 day return period.
I do not have either of the issues on mine. Maybe you have a defective unit.
Thanks for the replies. I think maybe what I described seemed a little too extreme. When I say a "little dimmer", I mean it looks like the pixels within 1-2 mm of the bottom bezel might be a little darker. It's only sort of apparent on screens with white or grey backgrounds, and would be easy to miss if you weren't looking for it. I'm kind of wondering if I'm just worried too much and this is part of the manufacturing process. Any other thoughts? Thanks!
