So I just got this iPad last week, and recently I’m noticing something weird when I look at the screen, and look at the background, it just seems blurry, or if I go to safari and go to a white tab, it just doesn’t look right. Like it’s not clear.. I don’t know if I’m tripping or what.

the only thing I did was use a screen protector ( used the wet wipes on the screen ) and I eventually just took it off. So idk if it’s because of the wet wipes or what but something doesn’t look right when I look at the screen, like it’s blurry

any ideas? Is it the ppi??

( I posted a pic but idk if that will help just because it’s a photo

Does it have to do with the lighting conditions in the room?

No, I’ve noticed it when it’s dark in my room, and when i have the light on. But it’s weird I really can’t describe it but the background ( if I’m on a website that has a white background ) it doesn’t look clear. And it’s not like my screen is dirty or something idk if I’m tripping or that’s the way it is, and I used the wet wipes to clean the iPad so I’m hoping that isn’t the reason why it looks like that

What I see is like white dots that blend in with the white and it doesn’t look clear if I zoom in
 
And I don’t really notice it that much if I don’t have the iPad near my face

I don’t think it’s meant to be close to your face. Viewing distance should be at least 30-something cm.

Yeah Ik, but even when it’s not even that close something just seems off unless I’m tripping about it.
 
Return it. I had a similar issue with the 10.5 pro. First one the screen was bad. It was blurry, yellowish and caused an instant headache. I returned it, waited a few months and bought another one. Second one was perfect until the white spot showed up a year later.
 
You might wanna go to a store and look at the display units to see if they all look like that. If not, you should exchange it.
