For seeing display tint you should take a photo by camera and not screenshot .

Default Blue tint

Hey guys!

I just got my SGS3 yesterday and I'm experiencing a blue tint with the slightest tilt of the display to any direction. It is extremely apparent in the stock browser and very noticeable on white color.

While I know that is a defect, I'm gonna call Samsung in a bit, I want to know if anybody else is experiencing this and in what degree.

Thanks

Very disappointed. Check your phones before leaving the store!
This was exactly the same problem I had with my Tab 7.7. Sent in to replace the screen and it is okay now. Tint is normal with amoled display especially in low brightness. I've own several amoled device and came to conclusion the technology isn't perfect. I wanted the one x but put off by the smaller battery capacity and previous bad experience with htc.

Ive used the search tool, and while this sounds like a dumb question...what and why is there ink marks on the screen when displaying dark images in the dark? can anyone else confirm this particular issue apart from OP?

Once again, thanks to OP for this thread...

Well it's probably a manufacturing error, these things happen, I'm going to send it back on Monday, just hope I don't get a new one with the same error. That's why I'm asking if anybody else has this problem and in what degree, so I will know what I'll be up for when the new phone comes :P

Many my firends' S3 and many S3 in my friend' store face ink marks issue. According my friend who work for Samsung factory said: there are many panel have to re-produce cause of errors. This make ink marks in screen when display black in the dark inviroment.

So I can confirm that ink marks problem is very popular , not easy to find a S3 do not has!

I don't have an S3, but I had this problem on 2 Galaxy Nexus'. Drove me nuts. I'd say get a replacement as I've had 2 more Nexus' that didn't have that problem nearly as much (some slight blue tint is usual, but it shouldn't happen so soon off-axis)

Samsung QC is amongst the worst for their AMOLED screen process. The tolerances they have for screens are borderline "anything goes". The Note had screen issues with "pink" and so did the galaxy nexus. The SGS2 had green/yellow issues... Its a lottery;/

You may get a great one, or it may be rubbish,

It took me 6 SGS2's to get a nice even AMOLED screen, its the big downside to AMOLED;(

Same here. Had to change 4 mobiles under warranty to get a reasonably good looking amoled screen.
