There's a flaw in the questioning. Time of ownership probably isn't as important to display issues as the amount of time the display's been used. For example, someone who's a heavy gamer that plays 4+ hours of games each day would tax both the SoC and the display more than a productivity user. Same thing for a heavy video user. Having the display go off and on doing stuff like e-mail, social, and web browsing for four hours a day wouldn't apply as much stress (or heat) as constant four hour sessions of gaming and video. The parts in electronic devices have defined mean times between failure. And that time is calculated by the amount the part is in use (and how). I'm a productivity user so my screen on time from March is probably less than a gamer that bought his device in September.

So, to be straight, I play games and I oft let my hox overheat while playing on wall charger. My daily screen on time is Aprx. 7 hours, 3 of them are gaming (the way to the university:D)
May be I am the chosen one, but I have had no issues with my phone at all, although I've got it in early may.

I don't play games , just tested 2-3 to see the performance. I use my phone mainly for web browsing , which is also demanding but not as much as gaming. My brightness was always on auto. Based on the answers I see here I suspect that it's the digitizer connector. I have dropped it from about 30 cm high, maybe it landed badly and moved a little the connector. I don't know.

I will try so send it to be repaired using the warranty even tho I have unlocked the bootloader.

Thank you all for answering.

6 months. sometime when unlocking or answering the call it wont response unless I press power button to let it sleep and turn on again, after that i can asnwer the call. i think its not too severe so i'll just live with it. dropped calls are annoying though.
