    Last year for one plus 3 and couple of years for lg flagship phones everyone bashed, now Samsung itself should blame themselves that one of its killer feature samoled is having red tint issues. Display mate credibility can be questioned now might be paid review!!!!!!!

But no need to worry, they will use OLED screens from JDI, a collaboration of Sony, Panasonic, Sharp, Fujitsu, etc.

                    Their Bravia team already started to switch, why won't their Xperia team, too?

                    People always ask for change, and everyone basically want change. LG is also going OLED with the V30, too

                              Ben30, 27 Apr 2017Super amoled crap, I rather choose IPS lcdMeh, had one LCD phone recentlyand have used several others... they all look average after being on AMOLED for a few years.

                              No issue with my S8+ screen color. It is very simple to adjust the colour balance on the S8/S8+ but you shouldn't have too.

                                Super AMOLED they say....well there is nothing super about this AMOLED display. It's just an AMOLED display with a pentile matrix just like the others on the market. The "super" AMOLED means that your digitizer (touch sensor) is build right on top of the AMOLED screen. Super AMOLED they say ... :)

                                    "reflect their own preferences", white should always be white, not red..., regardless of anyones preferences!
