Just saw some photo taken in HTC shop of demo phone that indicate One X has some yellow spot (tint) display issue.


I would like those who have gotten the phone already to have a check and give us input does it happen to you or not.

The recent yellow spot issue is serious problem for latest Sony Xperia S phone.

Hope it can help to understand is it common or just rare.

Thanks!

interesting i will definitely keep this in mind when i pick my unit since i'm buying it from retail

Yes, some people give up Sony Xperia S(LT26i)because of the yellow spot issue. I really do not want it happen to One X. The issue for Sony is detected by user after 1 or 2 weeks usage, in some case is when phone get warm(like charging) or play heavy game after a while.

So if One X user can test it under charging status with full white screen may can more effective to confirm.

Rumors said One X screen provider is Sony. If it is true even the technique of it is different than LT26i screen but still may have some common issue behind.

The screenshot just shows what you are supposed to see.
The problem is in what you actually see on the screen itself.

To avoid any confusion, please take a physical photo of the screen in a dim room, not a screen shot.
There. Solved. Please do not fight. :p

:mad:Darn... Just got the One X from digitec (Switzerland) and it clearly shows two yellowish spots in the two bottom corners of the display. It's very visible and distracting on white background, not so much on dark background.

Isnt this the glue that holds the laminated screen onto the glass? I used to have this on my iphone4s ips display and the apple dude that served me said it would go off after using it for a slightly longer period of time and after a week or so the tint disappeared

Now that you mentioned it, i do believe this is the cause indeed.. i almost forgot about the iphone4s screen issues haha till you mentioned it :D , but that could be because i don't read much about Apple/iphones etc. and i don't have any affinity to Apple and it's products. [off-topic] To be honest i really hate Apple's mentality / their way of business

Is it looks better now for yellow spot? Maybe can ignore if not look after it hardly?

It kind of looks as if they got weaker over the last two days of usage. Could be my wishful thinking, though. With white background, the spots (still) are noticeable and distracting. It's like with dead pixels: once you've discovered them, you can't ignore them anymore...

    I don't have any of these spots. The screen is just absolutely amazing! :)

    When the yellow spots are on the side, it's most of the time glue.
    But if it's in the middle of the screen, most of the times it's the foil.
    I would get a replacer if i were you!
