White saturation (contrast) is driving me nuts !!!

[Jaqb]

Like all of you I've used a lot of lcd devices in my life....but this one definitely has the worst white saturation I have ever seen! I'm surprised nobody hasn't mentioned this before.

Can you guys please tell me that my device is damaged or something...

You check your screen by looking at this picture http://www.lagom.nl/lcd-test/white.php
Ideally you should be able distinguish between all of the shades of grey and the white background.
I can only distinguish 200 (which is pretty obvious) and *barely* the next three ( 244-246). Everything above 246 I cannot see.

Do you guys know any settings that can be change to improve this ?
My current solution is to use Screen fliter app which makes the screen 10x better to look at but I it darkens it a lot.

Btw I'm on official .29 with root.

Gets hard for me to decipher at 250.

250 I can see, anything after that becomes near impossible.

Thanks guys for your replies.

I just went back to the store and compared my tf300t to the demo unit. My unit is clearly faulty ... my screen seems to be brighter but the contrast is worse. On the demo unit I could also see up to 250. So we can assume these are the correct values for this display.

I will get my replacement unit as soon they have it in stock

I'm so relieved...

I got to 249 on my tablet, and to 254 on my calibrated IPS panel on my desktop (just for reference).

Not too bad for a tablet screen imho, also glad you got a replacement.

254 on my phone, which is known to not have the best screen in the world.

250 on the tablet, which is kind of depressing...

250 is barely noticeable here, anything past it is just white on mine.
My SGS AMOLED+ goes to 253, just as reference.

Yeah same, mine goes to about 250, but I can say that I have noticed a little over-saturation but not often enough to be a problem or deal breaker to me.
