Re: Good vs Bad screens (pictures + videos of both)

I am having a hard time believing the numbers of the poll because of my personal experience:

Since November I have had 6 replacement Touches, all with the bad screen. I recently went to 5 Sprint stores and saw a total of 11 phones and all of them had bad screens. When I told the sales people what I was talking about all of them looked at me like I was a problem customer until I brought one from a mall store to the Verizon store and they were amazed at the difference. All he had to say was "Wow, I'm glad I got the Mogul instead of the Touch."

When I asked him if he could help me now that he's seen the difference he told me that since I have had so many replacements all he could do was some sort of "opt out" and that I could get another phone for the price it would be if I got it with a new contract.

So now my plan is to just wait it out until the Diamond comes out, sell my touch and buy the Diamond. It just really pisses me off that this phone could be a really great phone if they just made it right.

I think a lot of people just assume they have a good screen. I know i do, as i have no basis for comparison, and i can switch mine to landscape and view it with out any hindrances.

Yeah, I figured the "Good Screen" percentages are because most people just don't know, and another thing I noticed is that when you turn it to landscape mode watching Sprint TV, the gray/black channel listing kind of messes with my eyes. I really really want to like this phone but I'm having a hard time. It may be time to switch to the Mogul.

I believe so. Before I ran into a thread talking about the waterwave on Touch screen, I would not even think about or notice it.
