Nintendo DS Screen Question
Hello All -
I need a little assistance. I just returned a DS because I thought the bottom screen looked "hazy." It almost looks like there is a coating over the bottom screen & not the top. Well, I just opened the newly exchanged one & it looks the same. Is this just the way the DS looks? Where the top screen appears much clearer than the bottom? Any help is appreciated!
Thanks!

Ironically I just noticed the same thing with the DS my girlfriend bought a couple days ago. Mine doesn't seem to have this haze, but I was messing around with hers and it was very distracting for me after playing mine. So far she doesn't seem to mind, but I know I wouldn't keep it if it was mine.

The top screen is going to be a little sharper than the top as it's got the glossy cover and isn't a touch screen. But I wouldn't call it hazey and they look pretty close. Mine is from launch as well.

My bottom screen is slightly less sharp too, I don't feel it is a problem though at all. Perhaps Nintendo has introduced a new screen? Someone should make a poll so we can get to the bottom of this controversey.

I wouldn't have said that there is much difference but if I look closely at the bottom screen I can see the cross pattern across the screen which I think is to do with the touch screen.
