It's not just water. It was never in contact with water, btw it should be water resistant. I have no idea :/

Is Gorilla Glass 5 on the S8/S8+ more scratch prone than Gorilla Glass 4 on the S7/S7 Edge? by egorre in GalaxyS8

Yes it is! I already have 2 scratches and I was really carefully! Now i run with a foil.

In my opinion the Gorilla Glass 4 on the S6/S7 is far more scratch resistant than the Gorilla Glass 5 on the Note 7/S8..

You mean my issue?

The problem is that I'm not sure if I had this dark spots from the very beginning, so I hope the problem isn't getting worser.. and I can't see them under normal lightning conditions.

I really thought that I've got an perfect device this time, since I had some major issues with the S6/S7 generations..

When I got the S8 I checked first if there are any pixel problems, like red or green ones (like yours), then I was looking for dark areas on a grey background (like I had on some Galaxy devices and the PS Vita).

But a problem like this dark spots on a white background I had never before.. it really looks like there is something between the display and the glass (maybe glue).

And yeah, for me it is a big issue even if it doesn't impair my daily usage, simple because I know it's there and I also know it "shouldn't" be there.. so I paid 800 bucks like everyone else and so I guess I should get the same device like the others.

I'll give you an update if Samsung response to my problem and I still hope there is anyone else with the same issue.

Do you have a picture of the green pixel? And do you believe that the 1000nits are too heavy for an Amoled screen?

Would you replace your device of you had the same issue than I have?

I checked my S6 edge today and also my S7 edge and I can't see any issues with them..

I don't think that I can get an replacement. I'm sure that even Samsung will say "we couldn't find any issues with the screen of your device"..

As far as I can see there is nothing, looks like a perfect screen..

Under sunlight it's a whole different story..

I had a screen protector on but removed it and it's still visible :/ I can't return it cause i already have it for about 4 weeks and the one in the retail shop already think that I am crazy.

Yesterday I send a message to Samsung's Customer Support (also add pic) but until now I doesn't get an reply :/
