Sorry I have forgotten,someone ask before
Is it normal that reddish at the edge?
My screen seems good but the edge seems reddish
not normal, let me share the variations of screens I've seen so far are:
1)
perfectly fine, no red-tint on any part of the screen including the edges.- to truly test this out, select any modes other than Adaptive Display. Example Basic Mode is the best to test. It should turn warmer, in a yellow-ish kind of warmer. NOT a reddish kind of warmer.
- Some sets that do not have red-tint in Adaptive mode, but once change to Basic mode the red-tint becomes very obvious. But IMHO this is still acceptable as most of us will be using Adaptive mode anyway.
2)
perfectly fine, no red-tint whatsoever if viewed 90 degree head on, but the moment you tilt it slightly and viewing it from an angle, you will see reddish tint. - Now dont give me the reason of because you viewing it from an angle, because I've seen demo sets in stores and my own set included that doesn't shift colour or show any hints of redness, even if tilting the phone and viewing the screen from an angle.
3)
red-tint ONLY at the edges, some are throughout the edges and some are only on one side of the edge. -(maybe this is your case) << annoying but still acceptable depending on the user.
4)
red-tint on top part or bottom part of the phone, making it like a 50/50 mixture of red and white << the worst case of red-tint IMHO.
5)
no red-tint whatsoever, but the edges are green-ish or blue-ish. Take what you may from what I've observed and experienced. This is just my 2cents. Depending on whether your case is 1-5 and how bothered you are by it or how willing you are to accept the phone's condition.
As for me, I find 2-5 totally unacceptable. And as such I made sure I exchange my unit to one that satisfies my criteria as I stated in #1.
Call me fussy, nitpicky or OCD; but I paid 3.3k for the phone and I ain't letting Samsung screw me over in any way.. Yes I was a tough customer to satisfy when I was collecting my phone during the pre-order day, but I believe with manners and politeness, it helped me get what I wanted. Do note that I did not do anything more than just asking, and the staffs were surprisingly cooperative as well.
