Sony Xperia XZ Premium - Blinking Screen

Hi, Just a quick question. Has anyone experience the screen blinking while using the phone? What is currently happening is that sometimes, while using my phone, the screen keeps on blinking. It can only be removed once I restart my phone.

I thought I was the only 1! I'm onto my second xz premium and it's doing the flickering screen. It's hard to tell at what point it starts doing it though. I noticed it on WhatsApp when it was changing from light green to dark green etc. I tried numerous factory resets and even the Sony PC companion software repair. I thought it was my glass screen protector but have since removed it. Yes you can change the brightness and it stops, for a while but you need to restart the phone completely. I've had 2 big software updates since I've had this replacement device but it's still doing it.

Btw, this is the only downside to this handset

I have the same issue on my XZ Premium. Changing the brightness helps in my case but the flickering or blinking comes back after awhile.

I have the same problem, I always restart my premium and it's fine, Sony must fix this immediately cause it may damage the screen.

Need to say that it happens fewer In latest update

Same with me .  The screen flickers but then after like 10 seconds or so it goes away. I think it is a bug

I experienced the same problem.  The monitor flickering once in a while.  It usually happens in under bright environment.  I thought it was caused by adaptive brightness,  so I dissabled it,  but there is no improvement.  Sometime I restart the phone and it goes away.

Me too. My xzp screen sometimes blinks (brightness go lighter - darker - lighter....) although i disable adaptibe brightness , so it makes me very uncomfortable. I change brightness manual to solve this, but sometimes it effects, sometimes nothing change. I don't know why this happened
