I was watching Wonder Woman on my X the other night and noticed some very apparent blue fringing on the edges of the scene. My brightness was turned down and it was a very dark scene of the movie, but it looked pretty bad. Do OLED's struggle with low brightness and dark scenes? I turned the brightness up and watched it again and it seemed okay. It basically seemed like the blue of the scene wasn't being turned down proportionally to the rest of the colors.

For reference the scene is at the 33 minute mark. It's hard to notice if your eyes are adjusted to light, but if you are in the dark with the brightness down its pretty obvious. Seems like it's just a combination of the colors of the scene and low brightness. Just wondering if others have noticed this sort of thing and if its just some aspect of OLED tech. I use my phones at low brightness a good amount so it is important to a degree, but mainly curious if anyone else has noticed it.

This is a weird ghosting that is more noticeable on low light. It is also a lot more obvious if TT is on. I experience this with my V30. I experience it with my Note 3 too.

I've seen it if I scroll a dark colored photo quickly. I'm assuming the same effect is happening as you watch a video.

It doesn't bother me as I'm used to seeing it for many years.
 
Do they struggle with explosions on screen as well? Towards the end of the movie there is a large one and there is this strange artifacting around the edges and the color gets all wacky.
