Actually I have visited them 2nd time. The 1st time, they change the OLED-1. Cut things short, 2nd time is when they blame the picture and if I insist, they need to send to HQ, which when I collect, still says it's the picture. So, I think no point wasting time and waiting to get back the phone.
I'm thinking to test other N8 in Nokia Shop or anybody I know who have it; If the AMOLED is like this, then I think nothing can be done, only can notify Nokia, so their next display they need to source another supplier? Or check for this problem.
But if it's the brightness/contrast parameters set in the firmware, then I suppose it could be fixed in firmware updates, or any app that can adjust it. Why I say this is because the display is perfectly FINE in daylight condition (outdoor daytime), but when go indoor lowlighting, it become like this. Or maybe it was the light sensor?

Another reason I suspect it's the brightness issue is because I test on the N900, if I set the brightness to MAXIMUM, I can see some of these problem. So I suppose the brightness is too much on the N8? Btw, I set to lowest brightness (light sensor settings) on the N8 already.

I really think it's the display chips hmm.gif

I have no idea; I know some forumer might be having similar problem, so maybe the AMOLED is really like this, or my unit is more obvious. I need to test out other units when I visit any Nokia Shop, hope they don't ban me, LoL....
Last time I test and compare, both unit set to maximum brightness, it's very clear that mine is different, even capture on camera, still can see the difference. Seeing LIVE is more obvious.
Then at NCC, 1st time send in, they don't have the demo unit, but luckily one customer send in the N8, and we compare side by side, cleary can see the difference.
2nd time send in, they have a demo unit already, so compare again, still can see difference, although their demo unit also can see a little bit.

You should see my phone when playing dark videos, it's crazy awful; Imagine those people wearing like MIB, their black pants and coats will see all these problems.

Check out this TRON video I captured, this is what I'm talking about, having "layers", the light and dark like have separate layer, it didn't blend smoothly. If got smokes/clouds, you'll see multiple layers from black to gray to lighter colour.

If changing the AMOLED screen still doesn't work, so it's possible it could be caused by display-chip/mamaboard. You should convince them it's display-chip/mamaboard problem

u said they change ur OLED for u 1 time?  then high possible ur display controller/chip leh...

high possible that it is display-chip. coz if change display 200 time but not display-chip, result will remain the same.

Just play Tron on my N8, didn't encounter such problem.

The weird thing is... it's working perfectly FINE under daylight condition (or proper lightings?). This is what I'm curious about.

When we go in room/lowlight, the display supposedly will brighten up right? I think this is when the problem become obvious. I'm not sure what's wrong really, but suspecting the brightness.
I don't think that will be a good idea. Nokia knows about this issue as I've informed them about it. Let them check on it first. I'm also trying to find out more information and samples/comparisons/etc to show to them hopefully.

Please confirm it with your friends who have N8, and try it under lowlight room. If there is still a differences, then confirm the display-chip
