on mine, there is a distortion on the glass in the same place as op’s phone. luckily it only affects reflections, the screen itself is fine. or rather, the ”problem” isn’t perceptible.

Remove the case a
I mean, watch a video and see if it distorts in that same area.
I just received mine and the screen is beautiful and not distorted. I do notice that the edge of the screen on the XR are slightly rounded down towards the edge where it might look like a screen protector. It does distort the light somewhat. It still doesn't look anything like the OP's though.
 
Lol I just looked at reflections in my iPhone 8 Plus display and saw a bit of distortion. Then I remembered I have a display protector on. Doh! :confused::D

We need a face palm emoticon for this forum!
 
Yea because he deleted them. Put a screen protector on his phone and wonderedwhy the screen looks funny.

So it can’t just be that the XR has a natural look like it has a screen protector when it really doesn’t?

Oh damn I’d replace that no question. Why spend that much money and accept a defect like that? Awful quality control.

No because he had a screen protector on his phone. You can clearly see it in the photo that remains on the front page. Around the ear piece and clearly how the screen bezel is not all one color but two colors why... because of the screen protector. Lol. It should all be black - all the way around. Not half black half gray.

It's a **** post. Needs to go to the wasteland.

That’s what I’m saying. The earpiece is a dead giveaway that there is a protector on it. But he’ll deny it.
