—— bit Browser reportGradients replace a sudden boundary with a continuous change. Different directions and color combinations make it easier to distinguish a visible band from an edge or a reflection in the viewing environment.
Start with grayscale, then try the color and radial patterns. Look for abrupt changes inside a transition that should appear gradual. A band visible in one orientation may be easier to inspect in another. Keep zoom at a known setting and compare the same area of the screen.
Visible banding can arise from source precision, browser rendering, color transforms or the display path. A CSS gradient removes image-compression artifacts from the source, but it does not isolate every other stage. Compare different applications before assigning the cause to the panel.
After inspecting a synthetic gradient, look at a well-prepared photograph or other content with gradual tones. Patterns can make subtle differences unusually obvious. Record the settings and conditions under which a band appears rather than treating one gradient as a conclusive bit-depth measurement.
Look for unexpected bands in smooth gradients. Settings, browsers or the output chain may affect them.

Patterns support visual inspection. Quantitative color accuracy, brightness, gamut coverage and response time require appropriate instruments and methods.
No. It provides display test patterns and browser information. Screen anomalies that persist at the same position need visual inspection and, when needed, professional assessment.
Open the patterns and guides for your device. True full screen and touch depend on the browser; an immersive page preview remains available when full screen is unsupported.
No installation is needed. Patterns, calculations and interactions run locally in your browser; theme preferences stay on your device.
Rule out dust, reflections and display settings. Repeat under the same conditions, photograph defects that remain in the same screen position and check the device warranty policy.
