I thoght this could be the same as the "randomly turning off" problem but it is not quite the same

This is a brand new galaxy ace; inserted battery yesterday. The issue is the if I turn it on as soon as it gets to the android screen the screen fades, then lights up, goes off ... in various sequences. The two light buttons flash at a very fast rate. Sometimes I get a minute or two of steady screen. At present it is just flickering on the buttons. If I push the on button it shows the base screen for less han 1sec and then returns to flicker and flash mode.

Anyone else seen thjis? Or know what to do? At present it is useless
