Correcting the phone's color display settings allegedly doesn't improve the situation.

    This in itself is ridiculous to begin with.

          It seems they have Blue Light Filter turned on. They also have an option to lower red colors.

                        samsung can't make a flagship display or phone with out faults.
                        but best phone manufacture in the world.
                        but according to display mate the best display in a smartphone ,LOL

                          Alien , 18 Apr 2017What's new? We're all used to this bs from samny. After the... moreWe wait for nokia . Since they are known for durabillity . Hopefully they dont charge it as much as htc or sony . Hopefully its lower around 500 to 600 . Then nokia will kill other phone company in short time . Why cant they sell it cheaper with smaller profit margin , then gain from number of sales , rather than high profit margin but less sales

                                oh my...it would really be nice to have your brain for a few days, to relax little bit.

                                  I always hope samsung get it wrong again . Love seeing people response and reaction on the net . Hahaha. Pretty much funny when you see sammy fan back up samsung and crapple praise iphone , and the rest pretty much against those two . In the end , cheaper phone always win . I vote for chinese phone these time around , go for the likes of xiaomi , meizu , one plus , vivo , oppo . Htc and sony are pretty much out of the fight . Damn i love sony headphones . Hahaha out of topic . But till date , htc is the worst company when they reveal their new phone and price . The price is always quater more than it should be based on market price

                                        Turning off the screen and putting it under a well lit environment, the screen is not totally black, but rather a gray screen with rainbow effects that move when the light reflection also moves on the panel. That S5 looked too yellowish when I see it beside another friend of mine's iPhone 6 whites
