So I have admittedly dropped my phone about 5 times, not big drops or anything but for some reason my galaxy s9 phone has a huge horizontal tinted line running through it and I barely dropped it today and now the entire visible part on the screen is somehow slightly tilted. When I take a screenshot on my phone the picture would show up tilted because the visible part of the phone is literally tilted. I don't know if my phone is shorting out or what, but I have never seen problems like this on a phone before. This is some weird stuff, I hope if I get it taken in it can be fixed or I get a refund, I literally have had this phone for less than 6 months and it's doing this. If anyone has advice on how to fix this or has had similar problems, I'd really appreciate some input.
 
Dropping your phone 5 times is certainly looking like the cause for this. I doubt that you would get a refund but you should be able to pay for repair.
 
Since I updated to Pie. I now have that crappy ever so hard to see horizontal tint near the center of my S9+ too. Anyone else notice this. So ticked off. Only had the phone for 8 months.
 
Replace the screen before the device dies. Get whatever media and data off it first while you still can, as they often factory reset them after repairs. I also doubt they will do this under warranty....
 
Take a screen shot and post it on FB or text it to a phone. If that image looks as you say it does then it is software related. If you post it and it looks normal, then it is hardware related.
