Mine has issues too (Black 64)

1) Black spots on black-ish background (Feed view with no events or application switcher with no open applications). I wrote 'black-ish' because I expected black to be really black on AMOLED. But it is not Still way better then N900 though..
2) Horrible colors when the screen is dimmed by the light sensor. Very noticeable and really annoying when watching movies at night. Everything gets a strong green tint especially black has dark green spots.
2.1) Over-saturated colors when not dimmed.
3) White and light grey as seen in 'Clock' gets weird grey/green stripes when dimmed
4) There is a clearly visible green line on the right side of the display and a purple one on the left side (in portrait).
5) Depending on the 'darkness' of used grey it has a purple or a green tint. Kinda funny when light and dark grey colors are next to each other and one is green and the other is purple. Funny and sad

Well, I guess 2-5 can be attributed to the Pentile matrix and I'll just have to live with it. I tried to make photos of my screen but N900 is not good enough for something like this

Edit: I've also seen this ugly thing happening on my N9:

So there might be just white on the invisible line and there's no stripes on the screen. But when black text hits the line, the black bleeds through the whole screen.
Here's a oh, so wonderfull paint illustration...

It's really hard to get proper photos of it, because it's not that bad, and when trying to get photos you actually need to make them bit blurry or the lines disappear into the moire noise.
