    Just curious if this was normal. Go outside in indirect sunlight, crank up brightness to 100%, then open a browser or anything that has a white background.

    Do you see any grey blotches or discoloration?

    No but if you do I would get it replaced.

    It's not really worth my time to get it exchanged, just wondering if this is a standard behavior with the Edge phones. My Note2, 3, 4 didn't have this problem.

    I'm getting the same thing on my regular s6. It's been happening for my first s6 and I got a replacement and still have the exact same problem but it's even worse on the 2nd one. I don't mind it too much though because it's only when the screen get super bright in the sunlight on a light background

    It's on every phone, so you're wasting your time if you are going to try and get one without it. It's just a side effect from their sAMOLED production on the new phones.. it's every device..

    which is the reason for my original post. I never saw this on my N2, N3, N4, S4, S5.. I showed the guy a tmobile and they just said we'll send you a new one.

    But apparently it's not on every phone. BBSeatle doesn't have this problem.

    Maybe some are worse than others. Mine has a nice cm line running down the left side of the screen and several random ink blot looking spots.

    I've had mine last we bought in Manchester came to Cornwall for a week difference in weather is unreal but Web searching noticed these blotches. So I stopped in Truro yesterday to get it replaced and the replacement has the exact same issue. Ive also checked my mother in laws which exhibits the same issue Ime leaning on it being a samoled issue
