It'll be the problem that all the Vita screens have - the cheap manufacturing of the OLED displays result in "blotches" that are only really visible on a black screen. Nothing you can do about it.

I didn't like Unit 13 at first but I just completed the demo and it's grown on me, I will probably buy it.

I've had the demo on my vita the whole time because I got it before they pulled it.

Well I've had no issue and there have been very few issues reported in reviews and articles.....if you have an issue you should just get it swapped

And there is no such thing as a cheap manufacture of OLED screens.

 

[ONESHOTKILL]

you using a screen protector?

nope, its just like dark streak like black ink,i think its just what the guy above said about problem with screens,i googled the problem and seems to be a few people have it

 

[Mr Men]

Makes you wonder why someone would buy a PS Vita when the screen is cheap tat and all the games are rubbish....

 

[Edz]

The pre-order pack! Sony screwed up with the codes and ended up sending two Frobisher codes to a lot of people, think some people are still waiting on them

I have a spare Frobisher says code if you still want one?

Had enough of trolling yet?

 

[Strife212]

He's being sarcastic because pioneer bought one but constantly complains about it

 

[Mr Men]

Had enough of trolling yet?

me? I am commenting to Pioneer who has done nothing but whine about it.

 

[Windle]

me?

Ah sorry, thought you were the poster who was trolling earlier in the thread

 

[pioneer2000]

But am I not right to moan - it is a problem with all of them. If you think yours doesn't have the blotching issue then you likely just haven't noticed it yet. Samsung's own phones don't have the issue, so it can only be attributed to a cheaper manufacturing process to fulfill Sony's requirements or a problem related to bonding the panel to the plastic front.

Yes your kind of right, he did very early into the thread but has since brought a vita as is now enjoying it.

Oh yeah cause saying the high cost of memory cards was off putting, was in fact trolling. We have 2 vita's here and its over £100 to buy 2 32 gig cards, but I guess that's easy money for some and not at all an issue...maybe you can buy them for me

Wasn't having a pop, just stating you like others were ****ed for whatever reason, but since buying it are enjoying it

Agreed on the price of the memory cards, as I would really like to buy my games digitally as I cba to keep opening that stupid slot (no nails).

 

[Strife212]

I think the game slot cover is going to be the first thing to break.

While I agreed with you a few pages back with what you said about the slight colour change, saying that all the Vitas have a blotching issue is plain wrong. As I said before, I've seen two machines now in a dark room with a black screen showing. While it wasn't perfectly black, it was much better than an LCD, but the display was uniform and there wasn't a blotch in sight.

Maybe it does effect a percentage of screens and if that's the case, and it is Sony cost cutting, then it sucks. But I'm guessing I've not seen the only two screens in existence where it doesn't happen, so saying it's all of them is way off the mark.

 

[dmcg]

is it just me or is it impossible to buy things on the psn store using the vita atm?

Happens on mine a bit too

 

[WatchTower]

Almost beat Uncharted on hard. It's taking me a while has I'm trying to find everything. At least then on crushing I can focus on getting through the level only. I wonder if you unlock cool stuff like on the PS3 Uncharted games like infinite bullets and so on.

After reading this thread I've tilted my Vita has far as I can and viewing angles has zero issues and no colour altering at extreme angles either but my 4g iPod touch that has the retina display like the iPhone 4 and 4s does. I hear some Vitas suffer with bloching do to the nature of the organic side of OLED screens.

I get some sort of blotching on the screen when it goes to dark e.g. just before and after the Uncharted loading screens. I get these silhouettes in the background. When the screen is active, it cannot bee seen at all.
