I think it might be normal that the screen degrades a little over time (not as much as the battery, though), but maybe your case is worse than normal.
Perhaps the degradation is affected by external things like humidity, temperature and so on... certainly 3 years is not a good point to start from if we considers the price of the devices but I don't think he can do anything about it. Probably an LCD panel is an older and more proven technology if one can stand the backlight. Junior could consider it for his future purchase.
