Same with mine, but the thing is that my N-10.1 2014 has slightly yellow tint, i changed a few times, but every unit had same problem than i gave up on that. Might be that yours as well have yellow tinted screen.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] jwetmore:
Went into this a bit in another thread, but aside from the following issue I'm pretty happy with the screen. (Though I do think the iPad Air's screen is better despite its PPI deficiency).

The borders around certain solid-colored shapes just look weird and off, like they're notched or something. I think this may be due to the RGBW stripe, but who knows. It's pretty easy to see in a shot I took:

The text looks aliased properly, the green box just looks weird. And yes it's visible from normal tablet viewing distances, not just right up against the screen.

No case whatsoever.

That pic you keep posting is meaningless because of the camera distortion. Here's a simple B&W shot of my N10.1-14. I assure you it doesn't look like that in person with my eyes closer to the display than the camera was.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] jwetmore:
The picture I keep posting looks exactly like what my eyeballs see. Do they have distortion too?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] BarryH_GEG:
I tried to replicate your pic on my N10.1-14 and, camera distortion aside, I don't see anything wrong on the actual display while displaying the same thing you were. So yes, your eyeballs (or mine) do have something to do with whatever it is you're trying to describe.

And no one's eyes see what a camera sees...

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] jwetmore:
Moiré is the wavy pattern visible all over the picture you posted and isn't what I'm referring to. On mine the edges of the green rectangular install box don't look straight - they look notched as if the pixels go green-white-green-white. The unusual RGBW stripe could be responsible for this.

Either way I trust my (~20/15) vision that there's something off in the way this screen displays some items. If yours doesn't behave that way or you can't see it then I envy you.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] BarryH_GEG:
Duh. Of course you're going to see things that those with 20/20 vision won't. Your acrminute sub tense is 25% lower than ours which is the equivalent of 25% magnification.

This is from Wiki and probably explains why in certain content situations there may be some anomalies. And your superior vision just exacerbates it.

The PenTile screen can appear grainy, pixelated, speckled, with blurred text on some saturated colors and backgrounds when compared to RGB stripe color. This effect is understood to be caused by the restriction of the number of subpixels that may participate in the image reconstruction when the color is fully saturated. In the RGBW case, this is caused as the W subpixel will not be available in order to maintain the saturated color. In the RGBG case, this will occur when the color is saturated red, as the fully populated (one green per pixel) will not be available. For all other cases, text and especially full color images are fully reconstructed​
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Anicane:
One thing i still don't get that why am i seeing pixel spaces in N-10.1 2014 and don't see in Ipad Air, which has lower PPI than note, I will and try to exchange this one and see if the other one has this same issue.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] neags23:
It will. I've checked out a display model at Best Buy. It had the same thing, unfortunately.

My retina iPad mini's text looks significantly better than the Note 2014.

I don't think it has anything to do with PPI. I can't see the dots/pixels on my retina MacBook, and that PPI is far lower than an iPad or the Note 2014.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] BarryH_GEG:
From above:

For all other cases

I'm not telling you what you see but until some of you with super-human vision began opining in the past few days no one here's had anything but positives to say about the N10.1-14's display. Other than a reviewer with 20/15 vision saying he "noticed something different" about the display no other professional reviewer noticed what the handful of you have. And sites like AnandTech, GSMArena, and NoteBookCheck DE spend hours looking at a test devices display during their in-depth objective testing.

I did a little experiment at work today. I asked colleagues with retina iPads (2 Air's and a Mini) to open the same content (web pages, WSJ app, Kindle app) I had running on their iPads and compare the text. None of the three could notice any difference. These were five minute drive-by's so maybe if they studied the respective displays they might have noticed something but cursorily they were impressed by the N10.1-14's display.

Here's what I just posted in a Q&A thread in response to someone wanting to buy a N10.1-14 because s/he wasn't pleased with the new LG G Pad; specifically its display. I listed the display as a potential negative in a list of N10.1-14 pros and cons. So I take what you're saying to heart but still don't necessarily agree with it or understand it.

You have super human vision or live-and-die by a "perfect" display. Some people here (a half dozen?) are really freaking out about some anomalies they've detected in the display. Interestingly, other than a single reviewer who actually has 20/15 vision mentioning he noticed "something different" about the display no one outside XDA has mentioned what some folks here have found/described. The difference between a RGB display and the N10.1-14's PenTile display is that because of an indirect sub-pixel arrangement, in certain situations like specific saturated colors on specific backgrounds, there can be detectable imperfections on certain content. You can read more here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2615750. Since you're leaving the G Pad over its display do yourself (and the forum ;) ) a favor and make sure your display expectations are met

before

you buy a N10.1-14.​

So it's really up to each individual reading our respective comments to draw their own conclusions.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] neags23:
It may be a little disingenuous to say anyone is 'really freaking out.' One person mentioned he wouldn't be returning it and buying anything different, and I mentioned a couple of times it's not a deal breaker. It's just annoying.

If it's a recent batch of complaints, maybe Samsung tweaked something with the manufacturing process. Or it's a refurb issue, and the Best Buy display model I saw was a recently manufactured tablet, or even a refurb they didn't mind throwing on the display table. I don't know. Might explain why no reviewers mentioned it, and why you don't see it with yours. I wish I were making this issue up just to troll the Note lovers (though, I'd really question what I was doing with my life).

If I get engrossed in the content I'm absorbing, or whatever task I'm undertaking with the note, I stop paying attention to the dots and it doesn't bother me. Every now and then it breaks me out of my zone, and I get a minor flash of annoyance, then I trudge back along into what I was doing. But if that's 'really freaking out', then I guess I'm really freaking out, guilty as charged. :rolleyes:
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] BarryH_GEG:
I'm in marketing so go pretty heavy on the adjectives. I'll tone it down. ;) I'm not saying you don't see what you (and others) are seeing which is why from this point forward I'll disclaim the display when people ask me should they buy it. I hope it's your eyes being above standard (better? ;) ) and not individual h/w issues. The latter would really suck and cause people to go through multiple tablets to get a "good one.:" Kind of like the iPad lottery trying for a Samsung vs. LG display. I don't always choose my words carefully and write rather directly so apologies if anything I've said came off as too strong or offensive.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] neags23:
An interesting thing happened today you might be interested in.

I asked a co-worker with notoriously bad eyes to check out the display. He's got really bad astigmatism in an eye, and it can't be fully corrected with lenses, blah blah blah. He is a developer, though, and stares at electronic screens all day.

I initially just asked if he saw anything odd about the display. Nothing. I said, "You don't see any weird dots or pixilation or anything?" Nothing again. And then I pointed it out where I saw it, and he said it looked perfectly fine.

So based on that one anecdote, maybe it is a visual thing. But then that brings up your point as to why no reviewers saw it. I dunno.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Anicane:
Exact same episodes has happened to me not just once of twice but numerous times, one of the episode was last last summer when we bought a new 55'' LCD TV, it had some problems with screen, and i pointed out few of the problems it had, and my family members declined that there was anything wrong with the TV, although i manged to change it few times, now it is good, but not as good as i want it to be. Exact same thing is this tablets screen, i point out things to f.exe. my family and they don't see problems i see. Although i am quite happy with the screen, the way it shows picture and all except when i read books i see bad rendering of texts and i see pixel spaces, and those other ''issues'' mentioned by others.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] BarryH_GEG:
That is great news. The visually impaired find the N10.1-14's display great. Just kidding. Do you know if your eyes are better than 20/20? Also, at what distance can you hold your N10.1-14 to make whatever you're seeing normalize?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] MasterZoen:
20/20?

I have 20/10 vision and don't seem to experience the problems that jwetmore or neags23 do...:confused:

Although, like Anicane, I have had the same experience of seeing something that I believe to be a flaw that others can't, but this more often occurs for me with video since I can see the flickering of frames on 30fps reel projector and any monitor display under 80hz tends to give me a migraine after @ 30 minutes. Drives my CW's nuts when I tell them their display is flickering to much.:silly:
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] egotheist:
Looks like display discussion turned into something more like holywar. But my question is rather simple so I hope no fight will follow :)

I'm not very happy with colors on my display but a lot of tests state that Note 10.1 2014 has one of the best so far. So i try to figure out isn't mine defective or something. Could you please try to switch display mode from one you have to Movie and tell how colors are changing? I've read in one review that Movie mode provides almost true colors with a bit of blue hue. Well, my colors with Movie mode get yellow hue and I'd say become far from being true. You can see yellow hue right after switching the mode in menu (white background of Samsung style menu stops to be white).

I'd appreciate any feedback.

P.S. Actually I like my Note, the display is amazing indeed and that colors seem not right only in comparison to some other display, for example when you stream photos to TV. I wasn't very fond of my Samsung TV colors but right now same pictures look better on a TV then on a tablet.

Reading mode is turned on on my device, I'll try to switch it off but I'm far from my Note now.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] BarryH_GEG:
Reading mode definitely adds a yellow tinge to the display. I think a couple of people posted their specific displays seemed warmer (more yellow than blue) than other N10.1-14 displays they've seen either in person or in video. Quite a few people have said that yellows and greens appear different than other displays they've used. The color gamut tests a few posts back show the N10.1-14 is more color accurate in yellows and greens than the N3. Whether "more accurate" is better or worse is in the eye of the beholder. ;)
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] egotheist:
Thanks mate, I can't wait to disable Reading mode and see what happens.. couple of hours later I will.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] diverblue:
I received my device a couple of days ago and was instantly disappointed by the display, especially after all the hype from reviewers about how good it was. My initial impressions were:

Light bleeding along bottom edge. This is very distracting during use, particularity when watching movies.

Screen washout when looking at the screen off centre; the screen appears to shine/reflect the LEDs along bottom edge which causes the colours to washout badly when viewing off angle

Milky blacks

Despite the high resolution pixelation is still quite bad, particularly on text. Perhaps I have just been spoilt by my HTC One's display!

For the most part this a great device but I can't help but be disappointed by the display. I am still within my 7 day window for online returns at John Lewis so maybe I'll exchange it, I may just have got a bad device.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] egotheist:
I guess yours is just as bad as all others. Admit it or exchange while you have time. But speaking frankly Note 10.1 2014 is still the best device on Android with 10.1" display. At least I personally don't see any alternative. Maybe I'd exchange on Galaxy Tab 8.0 PRO. No PenTile, but weak battery and less RAM.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] diverblue:
I agree completely, in terms of a 10.1" tablet this thing leads the way and then some. It's just that display! I could tolerate it if it was wasn't for the shiny/milky effect the screen adopts when you view it at an angle, the blacks just look awful; the effect is the same on my old Nexus 4.

I think I'll go for one exchange and if it's no better I'll just get my money back.

The Tab Pro 8.4 looks like a respectable device! I used to own a Nexus 7 (2013) and the smaller 7"/8" form factor is very comfortable to use on a daily basis.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] rushless:
I would consider the 8.4 if there was a 32GB option at Best Buy (I exchanged another tablet through warranty). To have the angle issue with the 2014, I have to look at an angle I would not be using anyway. The display looks better to me overall than my iPad 4, but JMO. The weak spot for me is the display eats more battery than expected. Hoping putting it in power saver mode helps. I do not notice a reduction in quality, so wondering what saving it really does. Will have a better idea on that in a few days, but seems to be better so far.

If I could only pick one tablet, I would choose this over the iPad due to the Note being a more versatile device (Flash, app side loading, micro sd, drag & drop and no iTunes to name a few).
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] egotheist:
It's me again. I thought that I've passed this colors issue but.... I've compared my display with my colleague's. I think that difference is obvious, but can you tell me what do you see? I mean white balance in particular. Backlight is set to Auto, Display mode is the same on both tablets.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] reubenskelly1992:
To me I'd say the black bezel is giving the whites what looks like to our eyes darker whites
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] egotheist:
Can't say whether I understand what does "darker whites" mean. Could you please say in terms of "warmer" / "colder"?
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] reubenskelly1992:
Sorry warmer
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] egotheist:
So you mean that black tablet shows warmer white than white one? Warmer like with yellow tint.. I see the opposite..
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] Peeodee:
IMO the White Tab looks as if the brightness is lower. The only way to get a true comparison is to turn off the Auto brightness and adjust the brightness and Screen Mode to the exact configuration on both tabs. Auto Brightness sensors could be calibrated differenly or not the same from one tab to another. Again JMO.

[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] VeEuzUKY:
My Note 10.1 display is a total disaster. Total and horrid yellow cast. A disgrace. I bought it in Hong Kong.. no such thing as "exchanges" or returns here. Samsung has positively zero quality control on these displays. What we need is a color temperature adjust app to properly tune the display's color tint. And I don't mean apps on Google Play like "SunFilter" or similar that the ONLY thing they do is "add" more tint to each of the primary colors. Totally useless. What we need is a native app (like the Sony Xperias have) to precisely calibrate the display. Till then, no cigar. There was a developer that had made such an utility (flipping brilliant) for the original Galaxy Note (version 1) and it was amazing. That was the ONE reason I bought that phone. But the app was short-lived.. it only worked with gingerbread, was never updated and the developer abandoned it. It allowed control of all the primary colors, saturation, hue, tint, gamma and sharpness. Total bliss.. since then, no other hardware was ever blessed with such an amazing display calibration tool. I'm waiting for the day.. Will gladly donate for someone to make it for the Note 10.1. My unit is basically unbearable. I can't look at the screen. All is yellow. That's it.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] graewulf1:
I find this thread interesting. I have no light bleed of any kind, blacks are black and the image is sharp at any viewing angle. Maybe you're just being overly picky?reading mode only affects the apps you assign to it, btw.
[Galaxy Note 10.1 (2014 Edition) General] :
I have 3 of these tablets, when I line them up side by side I perceive the two black models as having identical screen characteristics, though the white one is not quite as bright on the same settings and looks slightly washed out - basically a different color temperature. No complaints from me though, screen is good.

Wow, I've never seen such pretentious, nitpicking nonsense. What is it about this site that attracts people bent on picking devices apart? It's as if you're not happy unless you can find something to bash. You're all so bent on looking for flaws so you can "prove" how inferior everything is to the almighty iPad. It's beyond ridiculous. I wonder how many people who were excited about their Notes stumbled across garbage like this and walked away discouraged and worried that they'd bought a bad tablet? This is even worse than the lag complaint nonsense. Sad.

Just out of curiosity, what made you revive a thread whose last post was from February to share that insight? You had to either have done a search or gone back through 11 pages of threads to have found this one. I'm pretty pleased with the display but not so much as to revive a battle over its quality that long since died.

And not only did you revive this thread, you revived this one from March to share the same observations. Curious.

I've never rooted before so bear with me. I would really like to root my 2014 edition. But have a few questions. I've been reading things for a while but just don't understand some of the terms and things that are used to do this.

1. Is there a root method available for Build JSS15J.P600UEUBMK1

2. If i do root and want to go back to stock ( lets say for warranty issues ) is there a way to go back and reset the counter to zero?

3. If i do root, is everything functional like stock? I really just want to root to get better sound by adding Viper to it and maybe get rid of some extra lag. Not really into changing things drastically from how it already comes out the box.

4. Should i backup my 2014 edition as it is now before i root? If so, then how do i do that process?
