There is no improvement with the display black crush issue. I made a mistake by Upgrading from ROG2 to ROG3... I don't know when asus will fix this issue. I tried replacing my mobile on the second day after i received but Flipkart rejected my replacement. I'm not sure it is hardware or software issue. But if its not fix I hope Asus replaces my devices. @Anders_ASUS @Titan_ASUS @laura50123@laura

@ARP_ASUS Noticed one weird bug after 70 update. When opening gallery, screen suddenly has red tint and when exiting gallery the brigtness automatically gets increased.

Black crush is gone in my phone

@ARP_ASUS @Gustav_ASUS I am attaching an image how colour band is shown on ROG 3 as compared to my old OP5T device. Both devices are at 50% brightness and 60Hz. If you look closely you can see how the there is just black color on ROG 3 as compared to gradual grey to black in OP5T. This is the issue that i see system wide. The blacks are ok but the issue is where the colors are not compete black they are dark shades of grey but Rog 3 shows them as black which creates a typical and weird colour. I hope you understand this. This is on latest 70 update.

Could be due to different calibration maybe?
144hz OLED vs 60hz OLED
Higher hz probably has different calibration
