Yellow tint on my screen!

shivazerom — Sat, 11 Jun 2016 19:07:32 GMT

Hi Everyone!

I bought my Xperia Z2 Tablet about 3 mounths ago and, one mouth later, I noticed a yellow tintner of the edges on my screen. The edges are visible, especially when the temperature is about 30°C.

As you can imagine, the device is warranted for 48 mounths.

I sent it to one of the Authorized Sony Assistance in my country and they said that the device, in particular, LCD screen will be repaired without warranty, but I have to pay it.

Is that fair? Can I do something to take advantage from the warranty I have? I really don't want to pay the fixing because the device has no damages and I treated it the best as I could, only for studying.

I think that the device has a serious manufacturing defect and, as I said before, i don't want to pay it because of that.

Thanks for your reply and help!

@shivazerom

Usually yellow tint as you described it's due to stress on the screen.

@uliwooly

I can't imagine what kind of stress the screen caused the problem.

As I said, I used the device only for studying. I don't play, I only use it at home and, as you can imagine, I don't put it in any bag.

What can I do?

Thank you SO much for you reply!

You could repair the phone with XC but most likely you will have to contact your Local support

Hi there,

I have the same problem with my Z2 Tablet.

This seems to be a general problem.

What did the support tell you?

Thanks in advance,

Marc

Me too, some yellow on the screen. Sent in for repair as I believed this is a defect, covered under the warranty agreement. And been told that it's me! I've put pressure on the screen, in random places, which I know isn't the case.

They are asking £150 to fix.

Awaiting a call back from Sony Escalations as not happy.

Poor show from Sony as this is clearly a manufacturing fault unless we are all being heavy handed with our tablets!
