The shadows on the dark background?

[Star_girl]

I get this too. Probably it's normal for LED screens because it's not just on this phone.

[chris_b92]

Did you see the video. I don't know if I uploaded it correctly?

[Star_girl]

I have not seen it, it takes a while until the moderators upload it.

[chris_b92]

It's uploaded now. It's not as clear on the video. But it's very noticeable for me in real time

[chris_b92]

Is this banding?

[UNKNOWNUSERNAME]

Hi there, as far as im aware this is a physical affect on your device, therefore a screen recording wont help. if possible can you reupload but film the device and show the shadows that way?

You're talking about ambient mode in YouTube and it's perfectly normal. The letterbox borders will highlight in various colours to blend in with what's being seen in the video. If you wish to disable it, go into your YouTube settings and toggle it off.
