Sprint (Verizon) Touch Screen.... "good" (verizone like screen) owners.

Hello! Well first off, i KNOW there are different screens, the ones that cannot be seen at every angle, and those (like the Verizon) that can be seen without the washout.

I have gone through insurance to replace my broken touch, I received a refurbished touch. Right out of the box, I noticed it had a different screen without even powering it up. Once powered the screen looks better, however, the whites don't seem as white, more like an off white/eggshell.

Is this normal for those of you with the "good screens" Sprint or Verizon owners, for the white to not be "white" but more of an eggshell?

I would hate to return the phone for yet ANOTHER phone. when I actually enjoy this "good screen" besides for its off white color.

Thanks

Everyone with good screens consider yourself fortunate I have had a bad screen from the beginning and its just bull


And to answer your question my neighbor has a good screen and yes his whites are/do seem slightly off.

I like this screen alot, looks awesome, but the not so "white" whites are going to get some getting used to. I was hopeing to get a diamond, but this screen makes this Pos touch alittle better.

mine is the good screen and it is a little off white. But why change it when you have the good screen. I did not care for the white and mine cracked, but just went on ebay and bought a different color

Why are there different screens, and is there anything we (those with the crappy screens) can do to fix this? I was aware that there were two different screens. Until i read this thread, i thought i just had to accept it.
