But, I have wondered about how the grey stripe is created. Are the LEDs not quite in the right? Or was the design of the light layer wrong? Or did they try something to hide the light cones that were common in older screens, but got it wrong. Any of those could be hard to fix and probably not something that can be done on the factory floor.

Also, minimizing the gradient. It seems like each new iteration comes with something slightly different: light cones, gradient, blotches, gutter, ...
From what I've read, the Oasis 3 doesn't have the gutter issue.
