S22 Ultra issues with screen.

[Gonzommz]

In S22 Ultra with Exynos processor, there is a problem with the screen, strange pixel artifacts appear, this only occurs in WQHD settings and natural color, in applications such as YT, Netlfix and other streaming applications and in the Google gallery. I don't know if it's a gpu, screen or software problem, there is more and more information about it. In the video, I show what it looks like.

Welcome to AC!
Looks like possible software bug , dont know if this wide spread issue until it gets in more people's hands , when did you get yours ?

Is it always a strip across the same part of screen all the time?
Or the strips popping up in different parts of screen?
Could be a one-off bad screen if same location.

Only happen in WQHD settings so I'm leaning software bug

My thought is if there is a hardware mechanism on the display panel involved when in different screen resolution.

Thought software handles that

Looking at this article I was reading cause I don't know anything about screen tech, panels are pretty complicated down to the individual pixel having it's own set of components like TFT transistor and capacitor to control each pixel. Just saying could be hardware if you have a bad section of screen that goes wonky if set at certain resolution.

I'm only making a guess... a wild stab... based on one person having issue. Only a few people getting their phones so haven't heard multiple reports of this yet. As more phones get to peoples hands if we can get someone to test it and repeat the issue under same conditions then I'd go with your software guess too.

If it's hardware a screenshot won't display the problem.

Since the OP took a photo, we don't know.

It's possible

Can you show us a screen shot to try to determine if it's hardware or software?

Exactly which is like taking a photo of the problem and we can't help determine the cause.

 

[donm527]

That does sound like a good idea. Take a screenshot while it shows the strip across the screen.

So you want a picture instead?

No....a screenshot.....photo and video of the display are the same

Gotcha

I received the phone on Friday, errors show up in different places when watching videos or unlocking the phone. I will not do the screen, because nothing is shown, only you can see it on the display itself.

Are you saying that when you do a screenshot the problem doesn't exist?

Looks to be affecting a lot of people on the Exynos variant. https://eu.community.samsung.com/t5/galaxy-s22-series/samsung-s22-ultra-screen-defect/td-p/4856748

Yes, it does not appear in the screenshots.
