Screen Flicker---should I be concerned?

[AgentDecoy]

Other than a few, small quirks my experience with the Nexus 6 has been pretty amazing.

Last night I noticed a small...flicker...for lack of a better word on the screen. I could only really tell on a white screen (like the Menu). My brightness usually runs around 75% all day and that was the brightness when I noticed it. It seemed very faint and probably not noticeable to anyone but me. I've had the phone for about 6 months and usually always keep the brightness up at 75% and above. Should I be concerned of an issue down the road? Anyone else had this problem?

I would. Since it's under warranty, I'd ask for a replacement. (If the screen goes bad 12 months and 2 days into the warranty, you'll have to pay for a new screen.)

I would be worried too. Especially since mine doesn't do that.

By flicker do you mean it goes dark and comes back on, or could it be the adaptive brightness trying to compensate for something? If the latter then there's nothing to worry about, but if it could be an issue of power to the screen, etc., then I'd definitely be concerned.

It won't get better. It will likely get worse. Replace now.
