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 won't it's probably it's just an publicity stunt and "gizmochina" is not an reputable source

Service centre guys will say they haven't got any notification regarding this and will at best change your display (talking about OnePlus)

I know reddit can't be "trusted" either but if people are saying they refunded and rebought the phone and don't have the issue anymore then there must be something to it and atleast the other company gave an official statement whereas all we got a was confirmation from a modder.
I and probably others just want a confirmation that this isnt a hardware issue coz if it is, we will see what further needs to be done coz the device isnt fit in terms of media consumption including games.

Nope! no change at all, its still the same. Cant believe they pushed the update saying it improves the issue.

However other issues like double tap to wake, brightness fluctuation whike unlocking have been fixed.
