Is it ok, on black screen at full brightness, to have bottom lighter than rest of the screen? If picture needed, I'll try to post it. Thanks.
 
Are you talking about screen burn-in?

I would think it's ok since LG made it an option.
 
It just look like light from beyond the screen (this sounds like star trek quote)

Best I could. My G2 left and my G3 right. Does G3 look ok?
100% brightness, and black full scteen test.
 
I don't understand how you did the test. Give instructions and I'll have a go with mine and let you know what I see.

I couldn't download the app you recommended because I got 'Error 941' so I tried it with another. At 100% brightness and black screen I couldn't see anything unusual....no anomalous colours or variation in brightness across the screen. Looking at the image that you sent, yours does seem to be uneven but what is it like in normal use? Do you find that this is troublesome when viewing videos, photos, text etc?

Well, not really. I have this thing where I tend to look for the issue until I find it. I had this kind of screen on Nexus 5, htc one, g2, all of them had this till some degree...
This is not an issue for normal use. I just wanted to know is this common, so I can be calm. Do not know it these things could mean that screen will die.
That's all. Thanks mate.
 
Please can I have some more opinions. I know that all of this sounds stupid, but I want to have it right for my money. So is this common in this screens?
Sorry and thanks.
 
this phone is not good to use in a hot open field cos u have to adjust the brightness (make it dimmer), but then if it's dim you can not see properly. It overheats & needs to cool down, I think it was tested in a cool & closed area

Light bleed at the edge or corners of an LCD panel is common, some panels may have more while others might have less or maybe none. In any kind of mass production, products will be produced within acceptable tolerances. If you were to test many different G3 panels you would probably see varying results. Does this mean you have a bad panel? No I don't think so. Could you return it and get one that's better? Yes maybe or you could get one that's worse. No need to worry about it if it does not affect your day to day use. How many times are you going to use your phone on 100% brightness with a completely black screen anyway? If the phone works well in all other respects and the light bleed does not affect normal use, don't worry about it. It won't harm the panel and is a normal side effect of the backlighting.

Thanks, that's what I needed... Thanks a lot. Cheers.
