I have brought device August 12 ,2020 through flipkart first sale at 6auhust. I was very happy until i open netflix ,it has vert bad black crush issue even at full brightness ,in 50pecent brightness colour washed out heavy black crush issue is this hardware or software issue??anyway im just gonna refund ....but i asked some of YouTubers they have none issue ,but for fellow customers only have this😓. I decided to live with this but some of units have no issue why i wanna live with this issue for years so i try to get refund and but 12gb varient.
In YouTube crush issue is little low when compared to netflix and amazon prime ,rather than that this dev is beast 😍

They know this is happening, just read the Phonearena review:
"Unfortunately, it seems the ultra-high refresh rate panel comes with a price. While the colors of the ROG Phone 3’s screen certainly do look fine — and you have a few color profiles to choose from — it does suffer from a dreaded “crushed blacks” issue. Basically, if you lower the brightness below 50%, darker areas in the scene become very harsh, either going straight to black without a smooth transition or by showing very unpleasant dark-greenish tones.

UPDATE: Asus reached out to clarify that pre-production samples like the one we had for the review here could exhibit display issues, but the company promises that the final units that will be available to consumers "should be comparable to ROG Phone II" in terms of display quality."

Mine or many others facing the issue do not have production samples. I know Asus is aware but a quicker and consistent fix is really necessary. Even the camera samples...my OnePlus 7T takes Wayyyy better shots... Even in dark lights. I can take them both for a tour and share samples tonight. Imx 586 vs 686. Bigger and better sensor.
OnePlus proved here size doesnt matter😂😂

Not asking Asus to beat Other 686 sensor cameras as it is mostly gaming orientated. Atleast be better than the previous gen cams. The photos are not even close in terms of quality.
