    Galaxy S9+ Black Crush and Gradient Banding Issues

    New BRE5 update almost completely fixes the problem. Videos are much nicer to watch now in low light conditions. Really pleased Samsung could address this via software update.

    Tempered Glass screen protector with FULL ADHESIVE under $20 for two

    Does it have black lines down the edges of the protector or just top and bottom? I've had the Zagg full adhesive and one other one from Amazon and both had black lines down the left and right which obscured the edge screen.

    Nobody with any conviction, has said that a replacement has "fixed" the issue. That's the problem. Would be nice for those who have had a replacement to take some video or photographic evidence demonstrating the issue no longer exists.

    "Definitely better" sounds like improved, but not fixed. Would be useful to know if you're still experiencing the issue in videos.

    I think that may depend on where you are from. I was told by Samsung shop online that exchanges were accepted within 28 days of purchase. I was offered an exchange but declined as I don't believe a replacement handset would be any better.

    Where are you finding day 1 firmware? I could only find the updated firmware. Couldn't locate the firmware that came as stock with device.
