IPhone 5 screen has visible gap between vertical pixel columns...

Hi, i might be nitpicking the issue but my new iPhone 5 (White) has a visible gap between each pixel colum (vertical only). Ever since the iPhone 4 came out I was amazed by how "sharp" everything looked and even the smallest text would barely be very crisp and legible. We have two iPhone 5's in the family and the newest one built week 21 of 2013 has this annoying visible vertical gap. It's mostly noticable on solid lighter colors. The older 4 & 5 phones are as crisp as always. I've shown it to several people and they have been able to spot the difference. Has anyone else noticed this? I've checked out a few display models at the Apple Store and half of them seem to be like mine, the other half are not. I'm thinking the ones that are like mine must all be fitted with the same display supplier or there might be a video chip issue of some sort. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

No , it's common at least I got this issue. I just replaced my iphone due to power butto failure and now I my replacement unt exactly like what ts stated. When you stare on the screen it's quite hard to notice, it's visible when move your eyes or the phone left right. It's very clear on grey and blue color.
I think it's not screen defective but lower cost LCD vendor , I got this kind of issue on my replacement dell LCD too( Samsung ) then I straight ask for lg screen which is same brand as original and no such problem.
Btw I will still ask for replacement from apple

    Make an appointment at the genius bar of your local Apple Store. The phone has a 1 year warranty. If it's no longer under warranty, a replacement is $269.

  • My Iphone 6 Screen has been bugging Please Help

    My Iphone 6 Screen has been bugging out lately it bounces up and down and just gets really blurry. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Hi,
    By "Bounces up and Down", do you mean this:
    The content of the screen drops down and about a third of the top of the screen is blank.
    When you press the home button or any icon, the content moves back to the top of the screen.
    If this is what you are seeing, it is intentional. It is meant as a way for you to be able to easily reach the icons at the top row of the screen.
    Double tap the home button. Do not press the button, just lightly tap it.
    All the content should drop down.
    Pressing the home button or any icon will shift the content back up again.
    This is a new feature designed for the larger screens in the 6 and 6+.

  • My iPhone 5 screen has blacked out.

    Hi there,
    My iPhone 5 screen has just randomly blacked out on me.
    I sent a text message to someone then lay my phone down on the sofa and when I picked it up again moments later the screen did not work and it is completely unresponsive. When I ring my phone it rings but I cannot hear my ringtone. Plugging my phone into charge does nothing and I have also tried pressing the lock and home button at the same time for 10 seconds which also does not work.
    Has anyone else had this problem?

    Also forgot to mention that when I plug it into my MacBook it's also unresponsive with my iTunes

  • If my iphone 3g screen has smashed and my phone is out of warranty. will apple be able to replace the phone for me or repair the screen?

    if my iphone 3g screen has smashed and my phone is out of warranty. will apple be able to replace the phone for me or repair the screen?
    i heard apple can upgrade my phone if a pay a specific amount? is this correct?
    also if my phone is out of warranty how much would it cost for it to be replaced?

    Apple does not repair smashed phones.  It will replace the phone with another iPhone 3G as an out of warranty exchange for 199.00 USD. 
    You should check with your carrier to see if you are eligible for a subsidized iPhone 4.   It may cost you the same as the out of warranty replacement for a phone almost 3 generations old.

  • My iphone 4s screen has just turned black but it is still vibrating. I was reading other messages similar and it says to resart phone but holding the home and lock button. However my lock button doesnt work what should i do?

    Is it the Home button that doesn't work, or the Power (Sleep/Wake) button? If the Power button works, you can switch it off. Not sure how you have been able to do anything without the Home button working?

    Did you try double tapping with three fingers? Your screen should go back to normal after that.

  • My iphone 5 screen has been cracked. Black Screen. Constant beeping.

    My iphone 5 screen has been cracked for a few weeks but worked fine. Yesterday the screen went black but Siri still worked. When I plugged it in to charge, it started beeping as if i were constantly unplugging it then plugging it back in. At first the screen would light up even though it was black but now the screen wont light up at all. I ordered a new screen to replace it but now I am thinking that it is more than the screen. I plugged it in to my computer and it doesn't recognize it at all. Use the same cord to plug it back in to the wall and it starts beeping again. Could the screen cause all of this or is it a bigger problem? Please help!

    Agree with the comments of FelipeV the crux of the matter is that mpeterson329 abused his phone.
    Also agree with the below comment:

    Have you dismantled the iPhone in any way yet ?

    Hi Ellen,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    It sounds like your iPhone 4 has a dim or blank black screen but responds to some commands like enabling vibrate. I understand this may be a frustrating situation, but the troubleshooting suggestions in the article below will help you solve the issue.
    Get help with the screen on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    If your screen is too dim, too bright, or you see only faint images
    Try to adjust the brightness. If the screen doesn’t respond when you adjust the brightness, open several apps to make sure it’s not an issue with only one app.
    If you have a screen protector, try removing it. Try removing your case if it includes a screen protector.
    If you see the issue in multiple apps, restart your device.
    If restarting doesn’t fix the issue, restore your device.
    If you still see the issue after you restore, contact Apple Support.
    Take care,
    -Jason

    Hey NJF7,
    Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like the screen is black. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    Display has no backlight or dark screen
    Toggle the ringer switch to see if the unit vibrates. If it does, it could be that iPhone is getting power, but is not displaying any image.
    Try turning iPhone off and then on again.
    While connected to the iPhone charger, try to reset the iPhone.
    If the low-battery screen appears, charge the iPhone.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Have a nice day,
    Mario
