[MENTION=6290951]funm@sterz[/MENTION], being persistent is necessary.

If they still don't listen then try mailing to some of these email address

escalations@flipkart.com

binny@flipkart.com

cs-head@flipkart.com

grievance.officer@flipkart.com

Also see if you can get a service letter/job sheet from official service center stating device as defective, flipkart will then almost certainly accept your replacement/refund request.

In my experience Amazon is much better in customer service, they also seems to have some kind of algorithm which automatically redirects you to escalation team if you make same complaint multiple times but unfortunately poco is flipkart exclusive.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] funm@sterz:
Thank you ?.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Deveshindian:
Yes it does have significant bleeding.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Mr.HUNT07:
No it is total normal.

Is it ok this screen?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Mr.HUNT07:
Let see. But as my experience you will not get a better device than this.

---------- Post added at 01:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:54 PM ----------

If you can adjust it is okay. If this much light leakage annoy you while watching videos, then go for replacement.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] djibril13:
Only in white background is noticeable. Makes the white more yellowish. In games and videos is OK.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Mr.HUNT07:
Better Replace your device. You paid for it. If anything affects your viewing just because of this and you feel this is not okay then go for a replacement. And Every poco f1 has some light leakage. You can't avoid it completely. But You may get a good phone that this current phone. Than decision is up to you.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] MazaMoto:
The technical guy came today to check the device and as per him ALL the poco phones are having some bleed in their displays. But it wont grow as per the usage.

As per him, all the technical teams of 'jeeves' got a mandate from thier heads to reject any display related claim. As its widespread and all the new batches are also having same displays.

He adviced to see of it can be returned for refund if not satisfied else use it as it is and get it replaced under warranty when there is sure shot improved displays from poco /xiaomi.

Confused now about what to do.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] funm@sterz:
I'm having same issue.

Kindly explain what was written on the last paragraph?

You mean they want us to wait until Xiaomi releases a light bleeding issue free phone batch and then go for replacement?????
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] MazaMoto:
This is what the tech guy told me. Also he had rejected my replacement request without my knowledge. so after follow up with flipkart team, they refused any help. No replacement...no refund.. simply asked me to take the device to xiaomi service centre and deal with them on my own.

Not happy at all with this response.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] rylark:
I think I might have a slight bleed. Should I be worried about this and exchange it for a new one ?[IMG="possible bleed"]https://dl2.pushbulletusercontent.com/xdDycJWa0qIzl74saiimsxSASBt4dZKA/received_325346071347895.jpeg[/IMG]

I've finally received the global poco phone after I've ordered it on 19th of september from aliexpress.

I've tested it for common issues immediately and everything is working fine. No touch lag, no keyboard typing problems and no screen bleed (or at least I don't see it).

Maybe I've gotten a new batch?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] xXxNeXuSxXx:
Seems like you are the lucky one :)

Can you check the panel make from AIDA64? possibly they might have changed the maker of that
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] yimmyme:
I received my Poco F1 128GB in Switzerland several days ago and it had the screen bleeding issue at the bottom of the screen.

Just took it back to the retailer to ask for a replacement. They will inform me in the next few days what they will do with the phone (replacement/repair/nothing).

I will let you know what happens
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] ma3oony:
got new sealed replacement, still the same, funny thing some other people got the device from the same shop without a bleeding , only my luck

the other way around is to keep unboxing all the stock until i get a good screen

so meh, i'll live with it , it's not a killer thing , but i'm just a bit of perfectionist
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] nicholes:
What do you mean by keyboard typing problem?? is there any keyboard typing problem exist ?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] MazaMoto:
Is it Poco or Pocophone mentioned at the back? Because I suspect that the Pocophone F1 (Global) having better screen or QC than the Poco (Asian Market) F1.

I could be wrong though.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] karpacha:
See: https://xdaforums.com/poco-f1/help/solving-touch-lag-issue-t3847981

Basically, typing on the edges of the screen causes lag.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] nicholes:
Yeah, thats true ..

Just watched this video about error, are you all also facing this issue? some says it is solved after the update. can anyone test and share please.

all these things are stoping me to buy this phone... Confused a lot:confused:
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] funm@sterz:
Guys all of you read this

https://twitter.com/IndiaPOCO/status/1049287522201821184?s=19
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] MazaMoto:
Do you really belive their claim?

how can they solve a hardware issue with software update? If it was MIUI 9 issue..then how is it that only some are having no problem and majority having this issue that too of varying degree?

Its simple hogwash from poco team to fool us.

There are replies from team that those using MIUI 10 beta stil faces bleeding issue.

I also got my phone replaced only to find out that the replaced phone has it more prominently. Even on white / bright background.

I am so disappointed with this that I have requested for a refund. No matter what other says but having a good screen is of utmost importance for me.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] funm@sterz:
You are from India right?

Are you right now within the refund period?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] ma3oony:
pocophone
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] MazaMoto:
Yes. From India. I got 6/128 model with this issue.

I got replacement device today..but as the screen was worst than my replaced phone, so have asked for refund. but the flipkart guys said that again the tech guy will visit and then send his feedback to seller and then seller will take 'necessary' action. he did not confirm me about the refund though
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] funm@sterz:
Yeah okay,

What about during the process for the replacement of the first Device - did you have tech visit?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] MazaMoto:
Yes. The guys were not ready to accept that as an issue saying they had some orders from thier HR and seniors not to accept any replacement for poco f1 as its observed widely here. So indirectly you know that this issue is reported by majority of the buyers against the claimed number of 0.3 % as per poco India. They rejected my request. i escalated.sent them the pics of the phone with issue (where display bleed from the bottom half is clearly visible..and not just chin)

Then they kept a revisit. I talked to the senior guy from the jeeves (who handles such tech issues for Flipkart here) to convince him that this is not a manufacturing limitations as they saying..its a manufacturing defect or poor QC or poor choice of display vendor. I had NEVER faced such issue on any of other IPS / LCD phones .. including some very cheap ones.

From xiaomi itslef I have used MI4 (still works fine) ..redmi note 3(exhanged early this year), mi A1 (stolen) and Mi Mix2. All these are LCD panels... but none of them got such an issue with the display. Its definetely a manufacturing Defect with poco f1 displays and xiaomi /poco is not acknowledging it.

And all those saying that we should not expect much from 300$ phone..sorry..I dont agree with you as display is the only thing letting you experience all the great futures of the phone.

Otherwise f1 is a great phone..i dont care about wideline L1, no care for asphalt or PUBG notch issue.but Display thing is a deal breaker for me for sure.. (My personal opinion) you all are free to disagree or express your views.. np with that
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Mr.HUNT07:
Brother you can still get a replacement by xiaomi Service centre. Go as for rwp swap. They will give you a replacement. I got a replacement through this this Rwp swap for screen bleeding/light leakage. Visit nearest service centre, and before that contact poco customer care for hassle free replacement.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] 3d360:
Bro do u got a issue free unit after replacing via mi store...? I'm gonna do the same if that's the case...

I can live with it.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Demitha:
it wont get worse?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Negi9:
Quoting a random person on the internet

"It will not damage the screen almost all screens suffer from some degree of backlight bleed."
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] funm@sterz:
What's rwp swap??

Please explain
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Mr.HUNT07:
no brother. It is normal. It won't increase through time . This is very minute. If you will replace you may get a worse product than this. It is not bleeding.

---------- Post added at 09:45 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:44 AM ----------

Yes I got a good product. They took this matter vesy seriously. So if you're facing any issues then go for replacement via Mi

---------- Post added at 09:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:45 AM ----------

I don't know exact meaning of rwp swap. But I got replacement by this. Visit care centre if you are facing light leakage. And ask them for replacement. If they agreed then it is Okay. If they don't then tell them that my friend got replacement due to light leakage through rwp Swap. You can swap this phone with new one. And Poco already claims that you can replace your phone if you're facing any issue. It is better to contact Poco Care before visiting service centre. They will personally look into this matter. You have to carry you phone with box and all box content, Bill, Id proof. ?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Demitha:
thank you.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] funm@sterz:
Guys after around 4 unsuccessful attempts at returning the device I've finally succeeded and received the money into the bank account.

I look forward to buying a new phone, mostly poco f1 after around 1 month hoping to get a new batch.

Any other alternative to suggest?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Ishwarsh:
Basically there will be error in new batch also because the LED lights are placed at the bottom chin
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] chetaah:
My replacing unit has much worse bleeding compared to my replaced one. Surprisingly, the replacing unit is built in July whereas my earlier unit was made in Aug! Nonsense phone (F1) specially because Asus 5z is now available at almost similar price. Cannot forgive myself because I was all set to buy 5z and suddenly fell in this trap.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] funm@sterz:
1.They have promised a tighter tolerance for the next batches.(from Twitter announcement)

2.I think honor view 10 is good and the unofficial bootloader unlock options are available for it right?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] nicholes:
I saw flipkart reviews of 16 Oct many of them, almost all of them was 5* (Big billion sale)and some of them also mentioned that dont listens youtubers about screen bleeding. Looks like they have solved the screen bleeding problem.

If anyone bought phone after 16 Oct and have screen bleeding please report here.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] sebx_g1:
So the best way is to buy poco in Mi Store - or smth. like that and see how it works before purchase - will they allow me to check 3-4 phones or they are in sealed packages ? I don't belive that is software problem - but they my try to mask it in software ;)

Light bleed?

Hi,

Just wanted to confirm if this is light bleed issue.

Pocophone global 6+128 gb variant August

Photos are at min, Max and mid brightness
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] spoonpt:
i think you have light bleed on bottom too
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] antonioli84:
I have this problem in my global version. The problem is not the thing that they call "gradient screen". It's weird scrolling the screen and seeing the image becoming more brighter for sure. But the real prolem in my device is that on left side at the bottom chin the bleeding is stronger and we can see a brighter spot.

In black background, image, keyboard or whatever it not happens but if we use a dark, medium or light grey or even white image we can see this brighter spot. It's not only the "gradient screen" as Xiaomi says.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] aadvandersteeg:
I don't have this
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] yimmyme:
I have just returned my SECOND Poco after getting a replacement for the first phone that had this!

Both were 128GB and had screen bleed at the bottom of the screen.

Now the retailer wants to repair the second phone! What an issue! :(
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] yimmyme:
I don't mean to bother you, but could you please upload an image of the phone showing the grey reset/shutdown screen?

This would be great to see, as yet I have only seen screens with bleeding issue!

Thanks!

Hi

I bought a Poco f1 on October 18 from Flipkartand got it delivered yesterday .It is 6/64 Rosso Red version...what I am noticing is that a faint light disperses from the bottom chin of the display...is this light bleeding?

Is it minor or major screen bleeding according to your opinion

Your screenbleed is huge. Return it.

You don t know if it will end being bigger in a coulple of months and its unnaceptable that a product with a 300+ tag comes with factory problem.

Im from europe. Just shipped back to amazon my 3rd replacement Its outrageous that these products are being sold in stores. And im a xiaomi fan.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Munuk:
You are right...a phone with such a tag should not have such manufacturing defect...I am placing a return request
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Munuk:
The technician from Flipkart came to visit today...he checked it and said it is no big a issue...but I tried to convince him that there is one...i also showed him other phones with no backlight bleed let's see what happens
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Munuk:
UPDATE:

Flipkart rejected my return request just a while back..they kept my return request on hold for a week and cancelled it just after the return period is over... Flipkart playing dirty tricks!

Now what to do? I am clueless
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] aslam31319:
If you dont have other option ,Do a visit to mi service center , tell them the issue , try to be cool, not to get angry, bcz even they have no idea who played behind this ,may they will replace it if they are not replacing it, ask them is it have a warranty ,and since its a manufacturing defect they have to make it ready at least as other perfect Poco devices and if possible go with a perfect poco f1

then also if they are not ready to make it perfect you got two option live with that bcz you gave less money(and its ok if its less bleeding) ,other option is go legally and if you need some help on legally contact me

Sorry for bad English
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Saswata Chakraborty:
I think flipkart made an official announcement regarding the screen bleeding issue on Poco F1. They clearly mentioned that they may not replace the device if it comes with screen bleeding issue. You should have invested some more time checking user feedback before putting your money on a device which has a lot of issues (as of now). And this kind of issues can't be fixed by software updates as well. So, if the seller or manufacturer doesn't replace it, you end up having a crap. And selling it to someone else without telling them the truth is also unethical.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] AswinARP:
I took mine to the service centre. They said it was not available currently and made me visit them 3 times each with 1 month gap. Finally the replacement part came and they did it for free. Well the bleeding was less noticeable. Even the replacement panel had some bleeding. Anyway got rid of the scratches in my display along with some Chips on the bottom. Btw. They broke my mic during this. I have to get it fixed. Going there tomorrow. I failed to notice it as I was using it hands-free or through a headset. It was when I tried the voice recorder, I got to know about this.

Is it my placebo effect or in Instagram stories the screen bleeding disappear?
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] AswinARP:
Bleeding can't be seen on a screenshot buddy. It's a hardware issue. It won't be seen by software. Take the photo of you phone on the same screen using another device. Then we may be able know if your device has bleeding or not
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] AshDroidG:
Well if it is some thing that does not bother you much then go ahead and enjoy the phone. AFAIK LCD bleed issues dont cause any additional issues.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Darkness126:
Ohhhhhh okay.. I don't see that much of white bleed while watching videos even at max brightness.. I just see a bit of light emitting from the bottom bezel during power options screen. I was confused and hence asked for more details. Since I was scared that it'll be something like Moto g4 plus screen burn issue. ?

Thanks a ton for clarifying the issue. ?

It looks bad seriously! Didn't expect it at all
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Aimara:
To be frank this is a first time I have used Lcd panel phone, been using Sammy since Galaxy first model, not sure if Lcd panel supposed to be like that? I do see some mild blacklighting at certain angles at the bottom of the three color test but not direct face view
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] AshDroidG:
Like I said in my previous post if its not bothering its cool but for me its affecting viewing experience on videos. Current gen LCD panels dont really exhibit this in day to day usage. For the POCO F1 Indian version and some other Asian markets I think they have sourced very cheap LCD's to keep the cost the lowest among all the other regions. They have definitely cut corners in QA resulting in some getting good panels and some really horrible one's. Am hoping my replacement is better. Right now my One Plus 2 screen is looking so much better after using the POCO F1 for a few days which is kind of depressing.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Aimara:
Can you show your oneplus 2 panel test? I saw your twitter pic, very bad looking, mine show slight bleeding at the blue test at certain angle
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] sayHello21:
To be honest, I'm a fairly heavy smartphone user(We all are) and I never noticed it until I say your post. Then I had to verify it with every app i use where I watch stuff just to make sure it's a non issue. It turn out, it's only visible in dark backgrounds. Now It's like an itch. Wish I didn't see your post ;):(
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Aimara:
Haha same here, I promised myself not to nicpick too much since I am going for speed at a budget, I even don't mind it's a Lcd panel
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] AshDroidG:
Hahaha Sorry about that mate. But if it did not bother you before then give it a couple of days and you may forget it. ;)
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] AshDroidG:
Same here buddy. I decided to buy this coz smartphone designs are in transition right now with every one trying to find the holy grail of a truly bezel less phone. Some are using notches some are making parts that slide in and out while some are trying to fit multiple sensors and cameras in a thin space. It did not seem a good idea to invest a lot of money in something that may start looking outdated in a couple of years.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Aimara:
After test mode ,I find the touch sensor is lacking as well,don't want compared to sammys one :D ,before you sell the phone ,do feedback to xm Poco ,maybe they will improve on Poco f2

POCO F1 vs OnePlus 2 Screen Bleed Comparison

Ok. So a final post until I get the replacement unit.

For the test I used mx player with same brightness level which was set in mx player settings. Display settings of POCO F1 and OP2 are set to default.

In every pic top phone is POCO F1 and bottom one is OP2.

Clue: Check the right edge :p

P.S. Pics taken with OnePlus 5t. Would like to highlight that to the naked eye the halo is much more pronounced.
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] Vivek05:
Do a screen test. In settings tap kernal several times and then display test you will get better idea about your display issue if light is bleeding then ask for replacement. As I asked for replacement hope the replacement one will not posses any issues.:)
[Xiaomi Poco F1 Questions & Answers] sayHello21:
Oh...I'm relieved then. Compared to yours, it isn't that bad on mine. It's hardly noticeable in the videos and only creeps up sometimes when you are looking for it like the Power off button screen.

It looks really bad on yours. It definitely has to be manufacturing defect as the degree is varying.
