Shocking Discovery: Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro Users Uncover Strange Bumps and Dents Under Their Displays (UPDATE – Must Read!)
Google Responds to Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro Display Issues
Google has addressed the concerns of some Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro users who have reported seeing strange bumps and dents underneath the display of their phones. The company stated that the new display on the Pixel 8 phones may show these impressions from internal components when the screen is turned off and in specific lighting conditions. Despite this, Google assured users that there is no functional impact on the performance or durability of the devices.
Reports of these display issues have surfaced on Reddit and the Google Support Forums, with users sharing their experiences and photos of the problem. One user described seeing “weird dents/bumps” under the screen glass, while another user in Australia expressed concerns about potential long-term damage to the affected screens.
In response to these complaints, a Pixel 8 Pro user was able to exchange their phone for a replacement unit from Google, only to discover the same issue on the new device. This has led to theories that internal components are pressing against the screen, causing the problem.
Google has advised users not to ignore these issues, as the problem may worsen over time. Users are encouraged to contact Google for support, as the phones are still under warranty since being released less than two months ago.
While Google has acknowledged the problem and offered replacements for some users, the company’s response may not satisfy all Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro owners. It remains to be seen how Google will address these display issues in the long term.
