There's this strange thing with my Switch OLED screen where pixels on very the right side of the screen seem to "reflect" the pixels on the very left side. This is only most visible in areas colored in ranges of gray and would otherwise be undetectable in any other color, and not every pixel is "reflected" to the right, only brighter colors.
For example, in the video I posted below, the logo of Pac-Man World is "reflected" to the very right side of the screen when the letters go slightly out of frame on the left side of the screen. It seems to be only visible in shades of gray or black, so if the right side is displaying other colors, it's practically invisible. It might be difficult to see in the video, but if you look really closely, you can see a white line light up. Looking Very closely in person, you can distinguish it to be the letters of the Pac-Man World logo.
I don't know if this has been a thing with my Switch OLED since I've got it 8 days ago and never noticed, but I did complain about it having a raised area on the right side, which I doubt has anything to do with it, but I digress.
It doesn't only open in one spot of the right side, but the entire very edge of the right side. Doesn't seem to happen on the left.
I do keep my Switch OLED in a third party carrying case with an uncomfortably tight strap, so that could have been a cause.
Then again, this issue can't be noticed during normal use and I doubt anybody else would have noticed it for a long time if they weren't obsessively looking for faults like I was (I have severe OCD)
Could this be a normal OLED issue that I'm not aware of or is this somehow damage? If it is damage, will it get worse over time? It's very possible this has always been there since I first bought the console.
