Hi,

I bought an 770 a few days ago, right now its at the service point of nokia because the display only showed undefinable lines and very strange colors.

What suprised me the most (BEFORE IT GOT BROKEN!), when I turned on the device for the first time, were the lamps of the backgroundlight, at the right side of the device, it doesnt look very good, kind of a mix between very light and very dark areas.

The hole right side of the device seems to be darker to me than the left side, especially in the upper corner on the right side.

I started to google for some picture of the 770 and found out that some device have the same (problem?) but some other have not, they have a very bright display without any dark areas.

The other thing I was concerned about was the display quality, I had an QTek Universal before and a lot of other PDA's.
I have to agree that the resolution and the colors are very impressive, but the whole display looks like there's a cheap screen protection deployed on it, there isnt the brilance (kind of greyish and well, fuzzy?) of other displays I saw on PDA's or even mobile phones.

So, how does your display looks like?


PS:Sorry for my bad english

Can you make a big,clear and sharp photo of that and upload it somewhere?

I need some pictures of that to show my dealer.

It looks like the same picture on the front of the web site. There are some other screen shots and pictues of it here and elsewhere on the web (thoughtfix's webpage).

I wonder if they would have been there, if the backlight hadn't turned off.

I think this is characteristic of these type of displays, I also have the fringes but it is only noticable from certain angles, my Zaurus was similar. It must have something to do with the light source along the right edge.
