Yellow tint in the lower half of screen?

samppis · May 28, 2014

I have looked now from THREE different stores and cannot find anything else but yellow displays.

The week numbers of the tested units vary from 14W16 to 14W20. All just as yellow as my first bad example.

How can this be possible? Does anyone have a neutral white display without tinkering with the white balance settings?!

Its normal with ips screens
Nexus 4 had this issue
Also my a870k has the same issue

Yes I understand, but I have seen two very good units with 100% neutral screens. It just seems like the good ones are a very small minority...

Also had issues with the screen of my black z2 unit. I had a yellow spot on the left edge, in the superior half of the display. First i wasnt sure, as it was barely noticeable, with time it turned darker and darker, getting in the end brown/purple.i then noticed a slight yellow spot also on the right side of the screen. Returned my unit to the seller, still waiting for answers. My unit also had problems with call quality.

Aa for the yellow spots, its the same problem i had with my htc one x first and with the htc one x+ then -.- Dont getting rid of it since 2 years

I had the same problem too when I brought my phone. I did change the white balance settings to make it better.

However after about 2 weeks of use white started looking more blue so I restored the settings to default and it was much better now

Maybe its has something to do with the phosphorus in the screen ?!

... or maybe my eyes

Did anybody stop to think that maybe it's just the adhesive between the digitizer and display? Since Sony is behind schedule I'm sure they are cranking these out faster than normal... just an optimistic thought though.

Maybe it like you say, the adhesive layer may need time or heat!!! Does anybody else had the same experience as me ??

Having the Same Problem with my screen , setting the Quoted values in WhiteBalance , made the screen Tolerable but i'm worried about it getting worse .
i remember my friend Xperia S had the same issue when he bought it , it did turn to brown after a while .
for a 500~600 Euro device , i did expect a better QC

My phone is beautifully white. However looking at certain angles gives a darkened appearance, which I suspect is somewhat inherent of IPS displays.
