Just say no you want to return for a refund. You should be eligible.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Batfink33:
I know but they were being difficult ,I was getting the usual wipe cache etc.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] nathlynn22:
Just speak to someone else say you want to return for refund as there are problems with phone like the camera issues you've mentioned and the screen issues. I dont see why they wont. They selling phones which clearly something isnt right or rushed them out.

I'm even questioning whether to even bother getting another when they are back in stock
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Batfink33:
I spoke to 3 of them and gave up when they said they wanted to remotely flash 10.5 4 even when I said I had 10.5.5. That's why in the above post I mentioned I even had the thought about returning to Amazon.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Feelers12:
They kept telling me last night on the chat that I have untill the 21st of may to return for a replacement if I need

I have very slight green tint and some retention.

The guy I was chatting too was very knowledgeable able it all and he was saying the issue referred to black crush was a hardware problem but the green tint is a software issue.

Never spoke about the burn in etc

So I'm Gunna wait till the 19th to send it in and see if a update cones out before that. Because I'm afraid I'd get a much worse unit as mine isn't that bad to be honest
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Batfink33:
Where is this,UK? Is the return period now 30 days rather than 14?
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Feelers12:
I'm in Ireland but I'd say we're very similar. Yes I was told last night the return period is extended because of covid-19
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Batfink33:
Interesting, thanks. Guess I'll get back on the chat then. The ones I've spoken to have been awful.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Feelers12:
I was talking last week to someone they said I had till the 21st then the guy last night said I only had 14 days which was the 5th then I argued and said the guy I was talking to last week said I had untill the 21st then he came back to me saying yes sorry about that it's extended due to covid-19
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] lil_kujo:
This issue like some users have said was also I big issue with the 7t the green tint at low brightness and night mode one with dark Grey backgrounds or color is something that won't be fixed with an update, oneplus never acknowledged the issue with the 7t and the only thing they were offering in some cases was to replace the device which also could come with the issue. For all the oneplus 8 user as an owner of a 7t, you will learn to live with it it sucks and now that the oneplus 8 devices are super expensive compare to other years it sucks more. My advice don't buy this device it's no gonna be fixed its a lottery thing and dc dimming just doesn't really do anything to improve it. Again just don't buy this device if you had return it and get your money back or just learn how to live it.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] alandd86:
ive ordered mine from amazon and will be arrived today hope to be lucky like you :D:p
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] filjusz:
This is exactly my point. I replaced 7T four or five times in shop and gave up finally. Expecting any statement from them is quite funny. Indeed its same case as with 7T. :highfive:
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] @home:
Report back with your findings.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] nathlynn22:
I'm assuming not green 256gb?
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] alandd86:
no the green one wasnt available
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] alandd86:
so far mine the same ,cant see any issue , what app i should use to test it ?and btw did yours come with preinstalled screen protector?:confused: as mine didnt come with screen protector
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Nekromantik:
No pre installed protector on Amazon ones.

Use this app at 5% brightness in dark room: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gombosdev.displaytester&hl=en_GB
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] alandd86:
ok found it in the box but no instructions to apply it :confused:
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] filjusz:
You have 1% of chance to apply it correct :D
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] alandd86:
i managed to do it :D
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Naszman:
8 pro screen

Found any issue with the screen?
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] alandd86:
no issues so far
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] nathlynn22:
What was the manufacturing date on the box? Thanks
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] alandd86:
7th of April
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Nekromantik:
i find it funny people complaining about lens flair when OP7 and 7T had same issues. One guy on op forums took night photos on 7 pro and 7t pro and both had lens flair when taking picture of street lamp
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Jack_Sparrow_:
I asked for RMA to Oneplus for this screen tint. What I hate most now is that I already sold my 7 Pro, I'm restoring a full backup to another phone, and starting all over again waiting for them to fix this issue and buy another one (restoring again a backup). It's such an annoying thing...

I'm thinking to buy another 8 Pro lately because Samsung in Europe sells the Exynos versions and Oppo color OS sucks compared to Oxygen os...
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] alandd86:
How did you test this? As can't see it on mine
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Batfink33:
My 7pro absolutely didn't whereas my 8pro is awful. My 6 did a little bit. To be fair ,the iPhone 11 has it pretty bad.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Nekromantik:
cant hardly make it out picture is so blurry

also if you cant notice it in day to day use then no need to RMA.

some people dont see it genrally and are making a fuss which annoys me

yes there are some panels out there where you can see it in dark mode at night when swiping down notification but majority of people just seeing it after they zoom into a 1080p image and put brightness down which is not a true test as you running a QHD display, then downloading a lower res image and then zooming in to it which looses even more resolution.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Jack_Sparrow_:
It's Chrome with all tabs closed, low light conditions at 25% luminosity.

In these conditions tint is terrible, but I could also see some halos with higher luminosity
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] alandd86:
But even that one which i can't notice this,nit everyone can see this especially in day 2 day use
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Feelers12:
Anyone get a replacement that is a newer batch yet
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] MajestyZ:
Would like to hear so as well.

I'm going to get my 5th device upcoming week and will report back. These have all been 4/10 devices.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Sad56:
Received mine 2 days ago. Date says 04/16 .

Grey are a little green but uniformity is ok , no black crush and screen burn for the moment.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] abduleo77:
What the heck is this

Are these dead pixels or screen uniformity issues? I received this device today as a replacement. The date is 4/13
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] smileguy91:
that's beyond uniformity, that's dead for sure
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] MajestyZ:
10.5.8 has fixed the green tint for me, there's only a slight pinkish/red hue left, but it might even be imagination. Very happy here!

It's downloadable via VPN on Norway by the way, or Oxygen updater from the play store.

Edit: Okay wait, it seems like I was too quick with my judgment. After a few minutes, the green hue came back somehow.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] nowy57:
it is hardware issue :(

I get one oneplus 8 pro with terrible green tint and replace for another (same batch date and software ) and there is no green anymore !
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] skiedel14:
The patchnotes mentioned "Improved the video playing effect when in low brightness" this is probably the black crush effect and not the green tint. I also don't see any improvement in the green tint, and I never had the black crush effect so I can't judge about that.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Batfink33:
The green tint is fixed on my phone. Perhaps more of a red hue but pretty normal. Whole display looks better. I think they've been altering the calibration.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] MIbby18:
Anyone know if the update has fixed the black bar issue across top of screen or is that definitely a hardware issue ?
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] MajestyZ:
Bar is still there as well for me.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Matthius:
The green tint is definitely 99% gone and instead it's very slightly magenta like which looks far better.

One weird thing, turn your brightness to 100%, go to Chrome, open an incognito window and tap the view tabs button - the preview goes completely green - weird!
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] skiedel14:
I take it back, after watching some content on YouTube with dark greys and browsing reddit, I can say that the green has turned more magenta like and the uniformity is less noticeable!

In this comment above I only tested it with the update just installed and testing it with the 5% grey image. The grey bar on top is also less noticeable but I'm not entirely sure.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] pyry666:
I have had rhat red hue in reddit altehe time with this device. Dowloading update now and see what happens then. I habe had zero green tint problems for now. And no burn ins. Maybe i am just lucky one
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] filjusz:
Nothing is fixed for me with this update. Its same as it was before. Im sending it back today.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] pyry666:
Edit. After update to 10.5.8ba red tint is also gone!
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Naafets:
Anyone has a tip that I'm able to switch off the complete status bar till the issue with the image retention is solved?

Most is switched of now, just notifications and location/sounds and radio still pops up and gives burn-in
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Nekromantik:
reminds me of the issues on the first batch of Pixel 2 XLs.

I dont know when I will get mine from amazon but hopefully mine is fine!
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] mikey_sk:
putting dark mode straight on when i get it ... at least with amazon they are so good at returns and exchanges ...
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] xgerryx:
What is the best way to test if this is happening to your unit? Haven't ordered one yet but would like to know. I guess don't ditch your previous phone until you check out this issue on your device.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] sclee018:
I got the same problem, too. It seems that Oneplus is going to drop an update on 26th
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Chikaka:
Definitely seems to be a software related bug, as the galaxy s20 u is having the same issue, which appeared due to a software update (hinting it is indeed software rather than hardware related).

You can read about it here

[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] ante0:
That's what I was going to post. My OP8Pro arrives today, hope it's just software :o
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Batfink33:
Sounds risky to wait on a "software fix". If it's like this you should send it back now.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] forever_lol:
I've experienced the same with my OP 7T (OP denied the issue existed). It's a shame as I was going to grab 8 pro this week.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Walhalla:
I am with you and say this cant be a software issue, because there are devices out there that have no green tint.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] mefflecakes:
I remember having this issue with my Mate 20 pro. Returned it after a couple of days, I remember reading online somewhere that it was down to the glue they were using. Not sure if that's accurate though :)
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Huigie:
Source?
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Tung_meister:
I'm pretty certain it's a hardware issue. UPS just appeared to collect mine even though they'd not let me know that was going to happen so I had to turn them away. On with chat now as ordinarily I'd just return and buy another but don't want to lose the pop up extras and I can't afford to be without a phone under the current circumstances.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] xocomaox:
Have any of these been reported from Asia or the US? I wonder if it's specific to Europe?
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] zige:
I just tested this. I got little green tint issue on top part of my screen. Turned DC dimming on and i didnt see it anymore at all... Me and my friends got phones so total of 3 unis to test and everyone had green tint issue. After turning DC dimming on it disappeared for all units...
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Cyph3r92:
The reakl reason for DC dimming is for people who are sensitive to the usual PWM dimming. It should be considered an accessibility feature to improve comfort for specific people, but it has it's own caveats (like most accessibility features).

It is NOT a fix for a faulty display as all it is doing it hiding the original tint problem and replacing it with a new problem - it completely crushes the black levels and skews the colour accuracy. This effect is not even intended, it's a side effect of switching the dimming from pulse width modulation to direct current.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Poloasis:
My OP8P came in today, after setup I installed a screen test on there and uniformity is perfect, under 1% brightness grey, dark grey, white is perfect. Looks like some bad batch of screen circulating.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Cyph3r92:
That's good news that every device isn't affected.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Nekromantik:
can you notice the green tiny in normal viewing conditions?

i.e will auto brightness in a lit room?

so far all the pictures only show it if the brightness is low and no one should be viewing the phone at that low brightness.

yes there should be no tint but I think it may be a software issue as remember OP7 Pro had ghost touch issues and whole of internet said its hardware fault but turned out OP fixed via software update
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] zige:
Yup thats right. But for now im not doing anything to it as dont want to return it and they dont have another device for 2-4 weeks and everything is sold out. I also got bundle where i got Wireless bullets 2 for free so...

We have Oneplus own service center here in finland (30km with car) so im waiting that they get replacement parts and they will change it for me. It takes only couple hours so really fast.

---------- Post added at 20:45 ---------- Previous post was at 20:35 ----------

Nope. Only like wheen screen light is like 0-20% and only like on dark grey background.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Poloasis:

[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] dr-jo:
I find that there is a burgundy tint on the dark parts which should get gray. deep black is good but shades of gray are bad.

The difference between the 7 Pro and 8 Pro.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Nekromantik:
maybe the red tint is why they not released the US version.

Lets see once the US 10.5.8 is released if people see red tint still

I dont see red or green
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] JonnyJaap:
Got my phone yesterday(updated wo 10.5.8, when i got it), but noticed first today the green-yellow tint. can't say that it was there all the time, or it just happened over night. The green-yellow tint is worst on natural, but even on vivid the screen is decently not white (change the theme to white then it can be seen with in the screen calibration without the need to open a white app).

I changed the color manuel under advanced settings.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] MajestyZ:
Never read about a green yellow tint on white background so far. How's your grey color? Try the dark them in theplaystore, or a new incognito tab in chrome, or Google drive. All at 10-40% brightness in a dark environment.

And what's the manufacturing date? It's on your box.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Batfink33:
You can see green tint here on YouTube. It's like a green haze over everything. This is after latest update too.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] filjusz:
So it doesnt make a sense to order new one... :(
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Batfink33:
I'd like an RGB slider in the settings to try and get the green out but I can't unsee it.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] JonnyJaap:
Dunno if the color change is normal, and it calibrated to be natural like that. I compared it with my Huawei mate 20 pro. It's at 80-100%. The date on the box says 2020.04.09.

https://youtu.be/gXsgpF9quvs https://youtu.be/vN1fVNFefm8 (campare with mate 20 pro)
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] MajestyZ:
The color change you see is normal in my opinion.

Look at my video and to see what I'm talking about regarding grey: https://imgur.com/TfosfBy
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Batfink33:
I get that too but where you see a red tint, I see a green tint. The tint shifts as it goes through brightness levels. Im not sure what causes it, it can't be poor calibration as there would be an even tint all the way through. Hardware problem I've never seen anything like this on a phone before.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] VortexWild:
I still think it's image retention. It would still be on there because you have it on most of the time as it's the status bar. :)
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] JonnyJaap:
Looks a lot like mine. So it's normal. Good to know. So it's just weird to me because my other phone screen is calibrate different.

I see how the other screen, and my calibration are kinda, saturated. So the normal calibration is properly more color accurate. I heard0 that it should be good.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] MajestyZ:
Mine isn't normal. The left phone on the video is the OP8pro, the right one is my Samsung S8.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] names:
Same here. A bit more discoloration on the bottom right of the display for me and if I enable DC Dimming, the entire left side develops green tinting extending out from the edge of the display.

Update: It looks like since the 10.5.8 update, the green tinting from the left side is more noticeable even with DC Dimming turned off.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Batfink33:
Is there any technical reason for this? I think it's to do with the 120hz implementation. I think it's messing up screen voltages and thus calibration at a lower brightness. I'm guessing 120hz needs another year or two to really mature and be like 60hz panels these days.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] MajestyZ:
Calibration, calibration, calibration is what I would say. And the lack thereof, of course.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Batfink33:
You're probably right, factory calibration which seems to be non existent. They can't fix that with a one size fits all FW update, although you do get different tints on 60hz v 120. I think there's something going on there too.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] names:
It would be nice if/when they do figure out the issue, if hardware related, they don't screw people over by not replacing devices which are out of the designated timeframe.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] iamnotkurtcobain:
Yes it has to do with voltages.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Batfink33:
They won't say a thing. Business wise they'd be stupid too.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] MrPhilo:
Has anyone actually had a decent screen?
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] @home:
If you believe all the forums, including Oneplus forums, it looks like there isn't many if any.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] MrPhilo:
Well, took the gamble, ordered one. If the UK had the snapdragon version, I would have kept my s20U. Hopefully the one I get is a new batch with a new revision hopefully.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] @home:
How do we know when the new batch is being made available?
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] MrPhilo:
It was out of stock a few days ago and it came back in stock recently. So I assume it be a newer batch.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] MJFox78:
my screen is perfect
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] crzycrkr:
As is mine. The small percentage of people with issues will always be the loudest
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Batfink33:
I'd bet you just haven't noticed it or tested for it.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] Nosferatu.:
...and if you can't see it and are happy with it why go chase a problem?

I've said it elsewhere but I'll repost it.

Just sit back and enjoy the phone it's what I'm doing. Nothing is ever perfect. I don't care what something costs nothing is made well these days anymore regardless of cost. Sooner most people accept this the happier you'll be. Everyone wants things cheap and businesses know that so they'll continually cut corners to hit a lower price point and by doing so quality suffers. Go find me a phone that's "perfect." That's right there isn't one.

For example, back in the day, I bought a Sony XBR75X940E which I'll just say was not a cheap TV (e.g. $6,000 new). I still love it but under certain conditions as well there's some display anomalies. I don't see it during day to day usage and I don't let it take back from the fact that this TV looks phenomenal, just like the OnePlus 8 Pro does too during day to day usage.

I also drive multiple high end vehicles and you'd think for the price of the car certain things shouldn't break or go wrong but they do. Point being I've just learned to accept that nothing is built great these days and most items are junk. Give it a year most of the people here that own a OP8 Pro or looking to buy an OP8 Pro will be on to the next phone. That next phone will have it's fair share of nit picking. So enjoy it for the year. Enjoy the phone, I am! :)
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] crzycrkr:
Did when I first got it and a week later. There are plenty here that don't have problems. Just because a group is vocal does not mean they are the majority
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] yodasmaster:
People who don't have issues won't bother coming here, so asking is pointless
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] MrPhilo:
Thats not true at all. Some will come and say, 'no issues' on mine, so your point isn't really valid.

---------- Post added at 04:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:47 PM ----------

This is great, ordered mine today and getting delivered tomorrow.
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] yodasmaster:
Not really, a handful of people will say no issue, but those with issues will be more likely to click this thread and interact. Those without the issue will be LESS inclined to even look at the thread
[OnePlus 8 Pro  Guides, News, & Discussion] MrPhilo:
And thats what I'm looking for. Asking if anyone actually had no issues and there was a few, so its good to see that there are 'some'.
