Does anyone else's Xperia 1 have significant blue tint when viewed at an angle? Coming from an Xperia XZ1 Compact, I'm pretty disappointed since that LCD viewed from the same angles would look a little darker, but the colors wouldn't change.
I'm a little curious now how https://www.notebookcheck.net/Sony-...challenge-established-flagships.427022.0.html got their viewing angle results, because my screen goes very blue.

I'm asking because I did NOT read anybody talking about the significant blue shift at angles, but the Xperia 1 in front of me does.
Also, white balance is known to be poor when viewed straight on without hiking the reds and greens...

No blue screen, are you sure it is an original? I just have a drop in brightness and normally it's totally impossible to have a blue screen with oled which is due to the backlight

Have you tested with a color or high contrast image if there are problems with viewing angles? because the brightness drops enormously approx 80% I think and on white we can not be well judged especially in the photo

It's noticeable with the eye. It was only noticeable on camera on burst. It goes blue tint like over cool added blue on the white balance

I'm going to take it to the shop. I don't think you notice it in other dark colours
i have the blue shift/tint on mine. thought it was just an oled thing? it's much more noticeable on white. it's barely noticeable on coloured images. i imagine some screens might have it worse than others. you'll probably be playing lottery if you chase for a close to perfect screen.
I was trying to catch that issue on my screen, but I failed to notice anything that I would complain about. I do have a "PanzerGlass" on it which might be affecting colors and I have the brightness level on Auto, meaning it changes with the ambient light and as a result the "shade" or "tint" changes as well. Simply looking at the screen from a side leads to the image being slightly darker, as if covered by a shade. It also reflects everything in the room. But there is definitely nothing as noticeable as what the OP is saying. On the other hand, it's hard to discern any "blue" on his photo either, but that could be down to the differences in computer screens.

You should read the thing before criticizing it. The review especially said the screen was better than the competition and the viewing angles were excellent. OP asked if we had blue tint because the review said it doesn't and he hat it
Also, I have that blue tint shift, like every other OLED screen I saw. That's a reason why I despise curved screen. I think it's due to the glass that is not perfectly clear due to the treatment it receive (well, glass is never perfectly clear anyway), maybe a corning gorilla thing. The tint of the glass is invisible if it's thin enough, but seing with an angle increase the thickness you see through, and then the blue tint of the glass appears.
Still better than the rainbow shift of the IPS pannel, or the brightness shift of TN screen. I will not talk about the no-viewing angle of VA pannel.
Anyway, never saw a screen that doesn't shift like that, but I'm not sure a lot of people are sensible to it, since they often set the warmth of the screen to cold to have colors pop, plus the manufacturers that almost always make blue based wallpaper because our eyes re more sensible to it.

Hi,
People have been complaining about the black botches and green screen issues with the Razr on this forum but for some reason i have not seen any sort of green tint or black botches on my phone...even at extreme angles and in the darkest of backgrounds...
Just uploading some Low Quality Pics of the screen from Different angles at low brightness to show that I absolutely cannot see any green tint on the screen...
Is it on the lowest brightness setting? If not, lol put to the lowest and im sure youll notice it then

Download a plain black background that will fit your entire screen when viewed in gallery, then put your phone in the lowest possible brightness(not auto-brightness), then go in a dark room, with 0 lights(night time if possible) then tell me if you still don't see the black spots all over the screen.
Every single RAZR has it and I have come to believe that those minorities that do not see it, are not creating the perfect condition for them to see it.
Not sure why I would wanna create the perfect situation to see something I don't want to see.

Either you are one of the lucky very few or the conditions are not right.
I get a strong green tint only in the lowest brightness setting, no matter the colour of the screen.
And the black blotches, go to a dark room, reboot the phone and...well just look lol, when the screen is black (most of the boot up screen is black) its pretty unmissable TBH.

Personally for me its strange that such a high end phone has these kind of screen problems, a bit disconcerting...But then again they are not noticable in day to day use.

That was more so directed to the OP who wanted to see the black spots. If you don't want to see it, just go about enjoying the device.
I saw them for the first time after I used my phone in the rain. I thought it was water damage, but then remembered that the screen and the glass were glued(Thank you iFixIT) and that there was no way that there was water in between.
I googled, and found out that nearly everyone with a RAZR had it. I was going to try to return it, but then decided against since the replacement might be defective as well.
I just am happy using my RAZR with whatever spots there are on the screen.

Will Try rebooting it in a dark room and will keep you posted...
Anywayz even if i find some spots in those conditions i wouldn't be bothered coz i guess if you look that closely at any phone it would have some or the other minor defect...The important thing is it shouldn't affect you in day to day ops...

It's not a defect; it's just a byproduct of sAMOLED screens. That's like saying an LCD is too bright in low light situations and calling it a defect; it's not defective, it's just how that tech works.
I think to solve this issue we need to find an expert that we trust to tell us how these things are made and to explain why such a phenomenon is happening even though I haven't noticed this on mine and I'm NOT going to look for it.
Mine has no green tint at lowest brightness either. I would consider that, along with the extreme black spots/lines, grounds for replacement. If the spots are only noticeable in the perfect situation and you don't encounter them in normal usage, keep that phone.

Just received by OP2 today. Initial thoughts are that it looks and feels very similar to OPO but the screen is a definite step backwards. Colors seem washed out, and even at full brightness it is dimmer then my S6 at ~40% brightness. Viewing angles also seem poor.
In my mind this is a bigger issue than lack of NFC or quick charging. The screen is the one thing you're constantly looking say on a phone, not some feature. It almost seems like the screen on this phone was an afterthought.

Coming from Note 5 it looked a little washed out at first. I've changed wallpaper to a bright one and not as bad.
I'm still happy with the screen.
U have to use it and it's never gonna match up to a nexus 6 or an s6 as they had QHD but I've had my op2 over a week now and it's great just go on zedge and load some wallpapers..

AMOLED screens have infinite contrast which makes them bright and punchy. Going back to just about any LCD it will look washed out.
KCAL COLOR PROFILE Amoled Style:
Colors: 255,255,255
Saturation: 285
Hue: 0
Display: 255
Contrast: 264
Gamma: 0
Much better!
IMO screen of OPT is a vast improvement compared to OPO.
Sent from my ONE A2005 using Tapatalk
Yes the screen is washed out compared to my note 5....not surprising really given the technology. However the more annoying screen issue is the constant dimming of the screen when darker screens are presented even when the adaptive brightness is off. The screen is constantly fluctuating and it bothers the heck out of me. Might need to use a custom rom just to get rid of it. Or sell the phone. Whichever comes first. Haha.
I'm disappointed as well, coming from the OPO. The lack of color tuning - no, that placebo slider in O2 2.1 doesn't do anything - leaves the screen with a too low gamma and too high color temperature, resulting in washed-out and cool-looking images. Stock OPO wasn't that great, but at least could be tweaked. No, I'm not looking for the overhyped Samsung AMOLED look that people equate with proper color rendition. I'm a photographer and all you need to do is put the same photos up on a computer monitor - even a business grade one - as on the phone to see how lackluster it is. By itself, it doesn't look terrible, but it's clearly not accurate.
I've got my opo2 yesterday and:
1. Screen is yellowish on the bottom! I read about it before, it was opo1 issue, but it seems to be opo2 issue too :////
2. Yeah, colors are washed out as hell comparing to my last phone - Samsung Galaxy s4 (but now white is white at least ) . Btw Is there any way to set contrast and saturation like on opo1? Why they don't include it for opo2 rom?
I compare the screens of my OP1 and OP2 and i need to say that is yellowish con OP2, isn't pure white and thats a very fault, i think that of warm colors.

Well, not at all... Unless I slide it 100% to the right, then whole screen is yellowish and bottom part is even more :/
I'm hearing many complaints about the screen from folks who haven't removed the factory pre-installed hazy plastic screen protector, either because they don't realize it's there or if they do don't imagine it makes much difference. Captain Obvious' pro-tip : take it off, the difference is huge (or YUGE if you're from Brooklyn).

Even indoors, if the screen gets hit with direct light, there is a clearly visible crosshatch pattern across the whole display. Anyone else notice this?
Got to say I'm not too impressed with the screen quality. Light bleed, dead pixels and now this. My much cheaper Redmi 1s has none of these issues. Sure, the colours aren't as vibrant but not sure which I'd choose given the choice.

If you get direct light on the screen, you don't see the digitizer? I noticed it within a couple mins of using phone and wasn't looking for it. Never seen a digitizer so easily noticeable before.
I don't think its too much to expect at this price a screen without noticeable light bleeding, dead pixels etc. Honestly I think they used the European promotion to shift these phones with slightly subpar displays. Btw, I think you are overrating Sony's screens. They are known for the same issues I noticed on this Honor 7, even on their flagships.
I noticed this also but it happened to me after I removed stock "screen protector" and replaced with Nilkin tempered glass. I quess stock screen protector somehow filtered grid away.

I am very critcal when it comes to display, both with computers and smaller screens. Had there been a visible grid on my H7 I would have seen it, no doubt at all. I never could stand the Sony Trinitron support wires at the old CRT monitors, and a lot of people.never saw them!

I have several phones and never seen the digitizer except in bright sunlight. With the Honor 7 I noticed it indoors immediately. Even checking side by side now in same conditions, I can't see the digitizer on any of them except the Honor 7. The screen looks like it has a texture to it when light hits it, not like the usual barely noticeable digitizer pattern. I agree that its not really an issue though, more of an observation.
I think honor 7 is one of the best phones I have had for this. I have just spent a few moments trying to see it and can't. I have always been able to see it before. I still have the supplied protector on also, if that makes a difference.

Check indoors at night time. Also at night it is visible with high brightness on white background, it you look closely.

Well.. into your eyes for straight ahead but tilted at light you can see from normal distance. It is minor issue though. I'm more annoyed with my dead pixel
When I saw your post I started looking for it, with different angles, different lights, etc... I can't see it !
I remember that it was sometimes visible on my Galaxy Note 2 and LG G3, but only with intense sunlight so I'll look again on the Honor 7 next summer I guess
I think the general product quality is the main factor, for example, I often see it (even indoors) on my Onda V989, which is a 130$ chinese tablet. (The tablet is great, but the screen has a weak max brightness).

It is very different looking than any other digitizer, so maybe you are looking for the wrong thing. It is not dots, and not a normal digitizer pattern. It looks more like a light texture on the screen. In daylight it creates a rainbow effect.

Hi, I got the LG v30 yesterday from T-Mobile and today i noticed that the all around the screen there is light bleed . Does anyone else have it. Check in the dim room.
Here is the youtube link for the video i did
You probably going to need to give us your definition of light bleed because I'm not seeing light bleed. I'm seeing the screen and reflections off of the metal trim.

Thats not a reflection the light bleeds all around the side es of the screen it between the screen and the metal.
I have it but the phone is so thin, I kind of expected it. It doesn't take away from the device in any way for me.
Sent from my LG-H932 using Tapatalk.
I got my phone to do it finally. I had to shut off all the lights and turn the brightness up way beyond the point I'd ever actually use it at in such a situation. It's not really light bleed per se. The screen extends further and is masked to make the aspect ratio but the mask isn't taken as far out as they could have. Or they might have been able to. I'd have to go back and look at the tear down to see what's going on.
In my case the light bleed is just on the right hand side of the screen. I made a video of it here:
https://youtu.be/Q_XXkZnC-9Y
It's visible in any situation with low light. Even in a restaurant at night.

How high is your screen brightness ?
put on a case, problem solved.
I have it as well. I would call it clouding not bleed though. It's not a bright light leak on the edges of the screen. It's light clouding through out the screen on black when it's black.
Well I have it too. The glass of the screen have little gap between frame on the left side.
Got it on both sides, but not bothered as I haven't noticed it until just now. It's only visible when viewing the device from the back/sides at angles damn near approaching 90°. Not sure about the rest of you, but I don't view my screen from such angles, so for me it's a non-issue. I think it actually looks kinda cool when you look at it when scrolling through a vertical app drawer... feel like I'm in a Mass Effect elevator or something.

The second reply is very informative just in general
It depends on how visible they are with normal vision. Your camera is significantly overexposing the problem (unless your pointer normally looks like the glaring sun, in which case you have bigger problems). The CFG70's I've had looked bad with the phone camera I had at the time I took the pictures. I don't trust camera shots to represent what the screen looks like in reality unless taken by a credible reviewer anymore. Also, you should use a solid black image without a super white pointer the screen is illuminating to give a more correct representation of the back light bleed; the three spots around the pointer look far worse than the rest of the screen, and that could be the fault of the pointer.
Very probably you have the brightness at max on standard response. These monitors are far brighter at max than many other monitors out there.
400+ cd/m^2 is very bright and most people who calibrate their displays turn them down to around 120 cd/m^2 to make them easier on the eyes. I don't agree with doing this on a media screen though as the brightness helps the image a lot in movies and games. Turn the brightness down to something reasonable and most of your problem will probably go away if that is an acceptable solution to you. Also strobing should reduce the brightness and the problem as well if you're willing to live with it on.
I feel for people who can't just return to the vendor. I would try to make it tolerable with some of the above efforts, and if that's the only problem you have with the screen, I'd probably keep it. If you can see the bleed with the naked eye without a camera while watching movies or playing games, I'd consider returning it, but understand that every CFG70 I've had looked similar when overexposed on a phone camera.

IF it doesn't fail IP68, put a case on it. Problem solved. You won't see the so-called light bleed.
You want case on this anyway to protect the glass back.
I recommend this one:

but the first post in that thread has links to very inexpensive cases that will work.
I bought about a dozen case, in all price ranges, and like the Tudia the best.
The gap won't be an issue for the water and dust rating. It looks like it is just the mask they put behind the glass didn't go all the way to the frame while the screen extends further than what should be visible.

The term clouding got me searching and i found this
The second reply is very informative just in general

What i wanted to say is there cannot be a gap if the v30 has an ip68 rating. No way for water to enter

Hah, most people look at the photo and go ZOMG!
adjusting exposure to match the way it appears is necessary provided whatever camera used allows for it
This can be quite tricky to do

Right. There's no real gap. It's just the black masking of the curved glass edge is not dark enough sometimes.
I always use a case on my phone, so I don't even bother standing in the dark trying to find alleged "light bleed". That's not how I use a phone (without a case), so no use trying to find an issue that has no real world substance for me.
(IF there is a gap, and it fails IP68, then of course return it under warranty.)

Hey folks.
I don't think it's a problem It's not actually a gap between glass and phone frame. It's not even actually a leak.
In fact glass has it's thickness, and edge of the glass pane is exposed over the frame. In this conditions glass starts to behave similarly to optic fiber. So part of the light emitted by the display is not let through the glass and starts to bounce between glass edges (inside the glass pane), to eventually become visible on the edge of the screen. If You look closely it's uniform thickness light, and visible in parts where on the edge of screen is something bright with bright color.
So be not afraid, nothing bad is happening here
Hi, I thought the whitebalance was a bit bluish/cold so I took two pictures and compared them. The picture taken with P20 pro has exactly the same white balance as real life whilst the mate 20 pro picture has a cold, bluish tint.
Has anyone else noticed this?

There is already an update coming up (137 I think) which should fix this (pictures are more real according to the change log)
I really hope so because currently I tend to instead use P20 pro indoor to avoid getting the phone to "adjust" white balance so every photo taken at home or at friends gets walls, doors etc that are white to look like the indoor lightning was like in an office or the xenon-lights from a car instead of warm and cosy as it actually IS.
I am not sure I would call this an issue. I much prefer a cooler tint to a warmer one. People are far too used this this ridiculous warm tint most phones give off.
Please remember that the screen is not in natural colour mode when you get it, you have to change it to standard from vivid and depending on the monitor or TV you view it on, this will alter it as well.
I would hate Huawei to mess around with white balance that I find to be perfect.
Also remember that the lights in most homes makes indoor shots look like trash because it might look warm and cosy to you, but that is not what it actually looks like in daylight!

You have got this wrong, the phone is a little more advanced than you, and is showing you the ACTUAL colour balance, not the nonsense warm tone your inefficient indoor lighting is throwing out.

No I'm not wrong on this one and it's actually an extremely strange thing to say.
A correct white balance produces a picture that reflects the reality.
That is:
If the picture is taken in a cave with candle lights that shall be reflected in the picture. It shall not look like a completely different situation as if there where cool white office lightning.
In the same way, If I'm taking a photo of a beach or a landscape at sunset I would not like the phone to changes the color to what it might have looked like during day time.
There are a lot of arguments one can have around this but one fact remain:
Pictures taken with P20 Pro looks like the real world and the photos on Mate 20 pro changes this so the picture does not reflect the reality.
