Grainy Screen

[goji26]

I was comparing my Pixel 8 Pro to my S24 Ultra. I've noticed a lot of grain when my screen brightness is low. Has anyone else noticed this?

The issue is making the rounds of the internet. I guess you aren't alone.

So then it makes me wonder if it's an issue that can be fixed with a software update, or a batch of bad screens?

Probably too early to tell. Make Samsung aware of it. There's also been reports of horizontal lines at low brightness and dark screens. Doesn't bode well for software fix.

Wow. I personally haven't seen it...

I haven't seen any grainy screen or green line when using my phone in a dark room with extra dim screen.

Really? Where are these rumors coming from? People are complaining about the washed out, not over saturated look. This is the first I've heard of a "grainy" look.

Yeah heard the green line but haven't heard this I just checked not experiencing it

This photo is that a wallpaper? From home screen or lock screen?

Someone just recently posted up a screenshot here of their S24 Ultra with a white screen trying to show another issue, but I did notice the screen seemed to have some purple color bleed, that's called the "dirty screen effect", it can signify a screen quality issue.

I didn't mention it because I have the nightlight turned on for my tablets display, and didn't get a good look at it. It's in one of the recent threads about the S24 display issues... I might try and find it and take a better look.

Maybe Samsung is having some quality control issues... Covid combined with a floundering world economy has caused a lot of big corporations to try and trim some corners ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

I took the screenshot before commenting on the story about the grainy screen on Facebook. You can see the reply option at the top of the picture.

Just ran across the article

The Samsung Galaxy S24 could be suffering from even more display issues

Are you facing any display issues on your Galaxy S24?

So the picture in the OP is a screenshot and not a pic taken of the display with another cell phone camera? It almost looks like light from the flash of a different camera shining directly into the glass of the S24U display.

I've looked closely at the display with screen off and strong direct light shining into the display (was testing the anti-glare) and noticed the glass has a unique appearance, likely the properties that make it anti-glare.

Either way, I haven't noticed any (knock on wood) imperfections in my display. The only debatable issue is the issue with vivid colors not working.

I took the picture with my Pixel 8 Pro. There was no flash used. The grain is clear enough that my wife who has horrible vision could easily see it.

Sorry to hear you're experiencing this, and I'm sure you're frustrated. It doesn't appear to be a widespread issue at the moment.

So what are you planning to do?

Thanks must of just missed this AC article, what's your display resolution at? Try moving from adaptive 120hz and set at 60hz see if it's still an issue.

I did remote access with Samsung chat. They weren't able to fix it so I'll just return the phone.

I'll try that. I'm currently set at the highest resolution and adaptive motion smoothness.

Here's a screenshot from my settings menu. I can easily see the grain issue. It stayed the same when I changed the resolution and motion smoothness.
