My Samsung S22 Ultra 256GB has the same problem; it has never been dropped or misused. This phone is extremely disappointing—it costs about $2,000 USD. If Samsung is attempting to kill S22 in order to purchase new flagship phones, I detest them. I'd prefer to purchase an iPhone or other brand of Android phone.

After only 2 months of use, S22 Ultra Snapdragon, Vietnam model i experience flicker when locking and unlocking screen, dark green/gray screen when in dark mode or lowering brightness to 35% and whenever screen. Can't use always-on-display cause it looks terrible. I only got warranty of 1 month where i live (Suriname, South America) Very disappointing, should've gone with apple 13 pro instead. Seems like replacing screen is the only solution. Won't risk losing another 350$ though. Any tips guys? I already tried factory reset, played around with display resolutions, etc. Wipe dalvik cache, without results. Peace 🇸🇷

I have an S21 Ultra that has this weird block of screen that flickers when using certain apps. Sorry to say, this is my last Samsung product if I can help it. Certainly not buying another Galaxy series phone.

I own a September manufacturerd Snapdragon 256 S22 Ultra and I just had the dreaded screen flicker issue..Let me tell you my screen was set to FHD+ and colour mode was Vivid. I don't think its a exynis problem. I chose S22U over iphone 14 so Samsung better be getting its act together.

Note9 User, 24 Feb 2022"Apple offers better support". Then why is is th... moreWhat's up with the warranty, If your phones lasts one year without a fault, it is most likely it will go on living longer. Can you name any other brand that gives the kind of software support like Apple gives? No. But just loves to talk bout something so people would want to respond. Attention seeking 101

I mean this is embarrassing and all that but like who doesn't have issues lately? Apple has with 13 series pinkish display, Samsung has it right now, Xiaomi has bunch of issues but a lots of people buys them so obviously you're gonna hear more about them, i don't know about Huawei but what i saw and tested in a store was horrible, i barely see Sony anywhere so i guess they'll end up like LG, OnePlus lately is a tragedy, i don't know a lot about Oppo & Realme but i guess they have bugs too, judging by the comments. So my point is, who doesn't have issues?

Laggy as hell. My note 10+ it's replacing runs apps better.
Sucks having this chipset.

I have had this screen flickering issue on my A7 2016 that came through an update in 2018. Samsung has never fixed it.

What you say here are all stories from long ago(s7,iphone5). I don't know how long is romania part of EU but that samsung story smells.
I work in phone shop in UK and I can tell you how the official process works righ now before and after brexit.
Apple gives 1 year warranty full stop
Most of the Android manufacturers have 1 year instore and 1 year with manufacturer.
Our store have 30 days money back guarantie. You buy a phone, you don't like the colour or what ever the reason we give you money back.
And this is the same from before brexit.
So if your phone is faulty in first 30 days you get your money, 30days to 1 year we will send your phone for repair, 1-2 years you have to contact manufacturer.
personal experience with samsung customer service:
I boght Samsung Note 10+ and my earphones that came with the phone stopped working (one side) after 6 months.
So I contacted Samsung trough app that is in the phone "Samsung Members"
all I had to do is upload a proof of purchase and they send me a replacement.
So I would say that your friend got bad customer sevice from the store and not from the samsung. Did you ever thought about that instead of making assumtions?

[deleted post]You are holding it wrong - Apple.
Bug, what bug?! - Xiaomi.
Lol.
But now, for real, at least they acknowledge the problem and they will correct it in some time. Is normal (to some extent) with new devices or new software.
My OnePlus 9 Pro feels like a cheap phone after the update on Android 12. Full of bugs. And after the OnePlus 10 Pro fiasco, I am seriously considering ditching this company. Long gone are the days of OnePlus 5T or OnePlus 6. #sad.

Yes sure.
Instead of telling truth to the world Samsung rather walks around the fire missleading their customers by false claims.

Note9 User, 24 Feb 2022Actually although you can open the box, hold it in the hand... moreOh, & also you get extra protection buying big ticket items by credit card, let them know if your having difficulty & they will get you a refund.
You get less protection with debit card.
