    Default Do you notice the screen door effect on your Epic?

    For those lucky enough to get an Epic today, I was just wondering how noticeable the screen door effect is? A couple of people have mentioned it exists in pre-shipment units so how how evident is it in the production units? Thanks mucho!

    Yup.....if you hold the phone less than 3" from your face and squint with your left hand behind your back, you can see it. (actually you don't need to do the hand thing)

    Honestly, for someone to even pick up on this (I can see it if I look really really hard up really really close).....they need to concern themselves with moire (pun intended) important things in life.

    No. Everything I do is clear.
    My mobile device timeline:
    Misc electronic organizers -> Cassiopeia -> palm pilot III -> m100 -> Palm Pilot VII and Zire 21 -> Treo 90 -> Treo 650 -> PPC6700 -> Treo 755p -> PPC6800 -> Palm Pro -> Palm Pre -> Samsung moment -> Samsung Epic 4g -> HTC EVO Shift 4g-> Galaxy Nexus-> EVO LTE

    That's good to hear! For some reason I keep imagining my treo 650 screen when I hear screen door effect.

    Gee thanks! I had forgotten about reading about that.

    Now I hope I can forget again, in the next 10 minutes so I won't look for it. I know once I see it, I probably won't be able to "unsee" it.

    The display is awesome. There was/is no screen door effect on my Epic. Just picked up one this morning for my wife. The keyboard is excellent - and of course there is that amoled display! This phone is going to give the EVO some strong competition.

    I'm the most OCD person I know, and I didn't notice at all.
