You're not alone. This tablet just can't stop giving (negative) surprises...

This is what drove me to return mine. My eyes are super sensitive to flickering and when this started on the tablet (with all the other issues) I finally gave up and returned it. Hoping that all these issues can be fixed in order to get one at a later date.

so I ordered an exchange from Amazon and yesterday after I placed the order it was still flickering very subtle. Then I went to work using all day had over 5 hours screen time which is the most I've ever had on this thing and it didn't flicker even once. So now I don't know what to do should I keep the new one or keep this one I guess I'll see how much light bleed it has and depending on which one is worse, I'll keep the better one.

The flicker happens on a certain level of brightness I noticed. Try going really high then gradually come down. Its not an ideal solution but I believe this is software based

Do you notice it more on the low end of brightness that's where I normally keep it

That's the great thing about amazon. You have time so you can play with both and decide which one you are going to keep. That's what I did a few times with Samsung g devices I bought from them.

I have this too and it is definitely software. Either turning adaptive. Brightness on and off or just manually adjusting the screen brightness gets it to stop for a while. I am hoping 5.0.2 fixes this. Anybody know when we are getting it?

For what its worth, I had read a week or so back that google postponed further 5.0.2 roll outs. Its possible that a 5.0.3 or 5.1 update will be issued sooner or later to crush ever prevalent bugs... Take that with a grain of salt though

I just hope some update comes soon enough to iron out these bugs. I have noticed quite a few. I do like the tablet however and most likely am going to keep it and hope for the best.
