AveranI don't know why you are supporting asus...https://zentalk.asus.com/en/discussion/comment/147664#Comment_147664
Hi there I can see you're not acquainted with the forum rules,any level 2+ member can set a display picture for their id
There used to be an older zentalk app before this forum which was disbanded in 2019, nevertheless I was one of the first wave of users to join this new forum
And I'll be blunt here I don't own a Rog,see my beta tester tag there it's for the Zenfone
I sometimes hop onto some Rog threads to answer some basic/global questions that's about it having replied to a couple of people in thread
This specific thread is more of a rant and personal attack space right now nothing productive will come out of it.
And one more thing it's an "forum" forums attract the enthusiasts for an device/oem or people looking for device related help.
Now coming to the hot topic of black crush it's true that rog 3 has it and it's been rather reported by multiple community members here but the fact that this is the fate of almost all OEM forums this year is also true.
I'm an android enthusiast and can say by looking at all the reddit posts on r/android and personal manufacturer groups on telegram that black crush,tint, display artifacts,image retention have been a constant complain by all device owners this,can't say for sure if this is this due to the increasing refresh rates, calibration issue by an OEM or third party (pixelworks) or something else.
Samsung does fare a little better than other OEMs in terms of calibration but again their users have voiced similar complains on sam mobile (their forums) and OnePlus 8 pro which uses an samsung made display panel was plagued with issues too. (Rog 3 doesn't use an samsung panel not sure which vendor it's from)
Coming back to Asus let's see what their response has been to this issue
~ people report issue on zentalk
~ mods say black crush will be improved in future OTAs multiple time on zentalk both in this thread and others
~ in a future ota the changelog mentions "improved black crush"
~ the change actually introduces some grayscale changes and a "filter" over the display to reduce black crush
This move wasn't appreciated by many and people here asked for the filter to be removed and everything to be set to default
~ in the recent ota "greyscale" was improved which basically removed the filter as far as I can tell by judging the comments here (some apps still retain it tho)
And again some people prefer this way and some with the filter
Mods still say "display calibration will be optimised more"
At this point can't say what Asus will do next but their response was rather better than what other OEMs did
Plus if you google "Rog 3 black crush" it'll show many posts about the ota which fixed it same with many other phones it won't mention the actual case so research more before claiming that X phone is better than Y phone, google results and OEM answers in this regard to this issue has been full of contradictions this year some claimed it's an software issue and then again reverted their statement to "hardware characteristic of OLED"
The grass always looks greener on the other side
As a matter of fact kirisakura kernel dev who got both Rog 3 and OnePlus 8pro under developer program compared both phones and display uniformity was better on Rog

You don't even have a rog 3 and still you are talking about its user experience..
There is no point ...
I own OP 8 pro and rog 3 both..
I must say ... 8 pro has zero black crush ... whether you talk about display, software update , camera everything is top notch....
Stop talking about something you don't have ..
First own it ,then compare it yourself...
90 percent of people are not fool here ...who was talking about the several issues....
I was a big fan of rog phones earlier .. and now when I own one ..I can say ..it's not worth it..
Let's see what rog 4/5 comes with..
Hope it can beat I phones now ...
(If you find something wrong or personal in my comment then I m so sorry ..
Hope you can understand my frustration as a user).
So, about ROG 3's display.... Here is this dark gray image:
Here is how it looks at 100% brightness :
Here it is at 50%, still usable:
And here it is at 10% (complete cr@p):
It's the same image on all photos....

markovoNo use posting here bro. Many have tried but only in vain. Only thing can happen is some highly enlightened dorkish cunt like nightmaster or verrry famous youtuber Greekleader (obviously pun intended 😂😂) etcc... Will talk you you down.. establishing it as your fault or something else defending for asus as how saintly they are and issues such as these are not mention worthy.So, about ROG 3's display....

No mods here will respond either. So never mind. Whether sell it or throw it away. But I should also mention obvio it's a really great device.. but this black crush display issue is seriously bugging me.
