Help Display Showing Green Tint When Viewed From Angle

[mike2518]

Guys, have you all noticed the greenish/bluish screen tint on your Note when viewing it from an angle in any direction? My brand new Note has this. Personally, it doesn't bother me if its like this for everyone but I just want to make sure I don't have some defective unit. One review site observed the same thing on their handset and posted the pictures below. Another site, Engadget, also mentioned this tint and said that this is an inherent nature of a Pentile SAMOLED display. Please give your thoughts as I have only a few days to return/exchange this unit.

I have held 2 Galaxy Notes next to each other at a shop. One has that blue tint when viewed at an angle, the other one doesn't. When viewed directly, the screen with the blue tint looked whiter, and the one with no issues looked very slightly yellowish.

Good find! My Note has the tint, but the whites and other colors looked straight on look amazing. I rather have better looking colors when working with the phone than a yellowish hite. Also, in most case, the phone is held straight on anyways while working with it. Anyone else?

My galaxy S II does the same... Blue from one angle, green from the other... "Whiter" from straight on. But the GSII screen next to any LCD display still looks a little blue.
