Pixel 8 Pro side of screen blinking when off

I have just noticed yesterday that when my Pixel 8 Pro is off and I just press the power button without turning it on , the side of the screen blink. Meaning I can see a bit of light…

Do you mean the device is powered-off (shut down) and pressing the power button without holding it in to power-on the device? In that case, I am not able to reproduce this on my Pixel 8 Pro running GrapheneOS.

Yes and it is running Graphene OS

Pretty much every time I press the power button, I can see flashing vertically on the right hand side…

Sounds like hardware issue, you might want to reach out for a RMA?

Playing with it now. Not really a vertical line but major part of the right side flashing one time, if I press the power button when off.

Sadly I cannot return product when I live…

It was a renewed form Amazon.com

Could it be that they put a new screen on the phone?

(Edit)

Could be. In this case you should try to reach out Amazon for a RMA.
