Default Screen problem ignorance

It is pretty crazy how people who have the skyrocket ignore that the screen looks awful when dim. Its even worse that Samsung has not stopped production to fix the problem either. You would think the white one would come with a fixed screen. Usually by this time you have people writing reviews and ranting about phone defects on YouTube, yet with this phone nothing. Just hoping someone agrees with me and maybe we can stick these problem up samsungs behind.

Agreed.

I have mine set at 50% and its bright enough for me all the time.

I never go lower than that though, so I personally never experience poor screen quality.

I've never notice the problems mentioned throughout the forum regarding dim settings and colors/lines. I'm sure that to a good eye mine is too afflicted.

One a side note, took my screen protector off today, and man! is that screen gorgeous. It's gonna be hard to put it back on, but I learned that lesson with the Atrix when I took it's protection off and it hit the ground.

You see, and that is the problem. You are ignoring to issue. So when your in a dark room you have your screen full brightness? I don't so it does bother me.

I agree my screen sucks at low brightness. I mainly run my low to save power only turn it up when outside. I wrote a review on Samsung site and did give a bad review on the screen.

I just picked up a white skyrocket yesterday and I've got the screen issues / lines. Looks like a "brushed metal" overlay on top of everything.
I'm going to be getting it exchanged for a new one tomorrow.

Maybe I got lucky... I've had my I727-SR for about 4wks now and haven't experienced the screen lines / screen problems others are posting.... I consistently run at low brightness with a screen protector and screen looks perfect.... no lines, blobs or other anomalies.

Mine has it. So does the white one I looked at. It bothers me and I notice it often. But its the only phone on AT&T that I want and LTE just went live a week ago. I will sadly have to live with it :(
