Got my iPhone X yesterday and have been loving it!

Have had one problem though which I can’t seem to understand. When I have night shift on and brightness at the lowest setting, when I scroll, there is a bright blue streak/shadow that briefly flashes following the text, videos, photos, etc. Anyone else experience this? Do you think it’s a problem with my display?

This is normal with OLED displays. Motion blur on black against grey backgrounds is just one caveat of the technology. Every iPhone X (or even Galaxy) will do this.

Hi, I’m having a similar issue. When brightness is set to lowest and nightshift is enabled I get bright blue lines above and below videos when scrolling through Facebook? Other videos also have bright blue shadows at times - is this normal?

It's because the photo is dark. This is normal for every OLED phone I've owned. Low brightness plus a yellow hue only exacerbates it. I believe it is called ghosting, I could be wrong but it's not unusual.
