Is this the last and greatest unlocked phone wiTH MICRO SD + 1tb, with super zoom? That isnt tied to useless online services
Any other high end model requires forced subscription to online cloud services. without sd slots. I can easily store my entire mp3 library on this phone with 1tb and switch out others.

I have a Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G SM-G988U1 and I always see shadows/grains/artifacts in dark areas of the screen especially when the brigthness is very low. It was purchased in September of this year (2024) labelled as a new model.
Grains:
With the default wallpaper out of the box, the black and white one with the big silver bubbles, when I touch the Recent Apps soft key I see a lot of grains in the background, however I must admit the icons and so forth all have proper colour accuracy and they are all clear.
Shawdows/Artifacts:
Photos - When viewing photos in the gallery eg. black hair on someones head, I can see shadows, black patches, artifacts (whatever you want to call it) in some parts of the hair.
Video: When watching a video, eg. someone in black clothing walking, shadows can clearly be seen every step of the way.
I have tried a few suggestions but nothing completely works. For the shadows in hairs, clothing, screen corners etc. I switched the display from Natural to Vivid and adjusted the lever to cool and vice versa...that didn't work.
For the Recent Apps situation with the background grain, going to Accessibility>Visibility>Reduce Transparency and Blur works even though it makes the background look dull but at least the grain is gone once that toggle is on BUT it still doesn't remove the shadow from people's hair etc. so something is still amiss. The fact that the Accessibility method works to an extent, this tells me these issues are more likely software related than hardware related.
Can anybody give me solid suggestions to make my Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra screen look the way it is supposed to? I never had these problems with my previous Galaxy S series like the S2, S5 etc. Thank you all for reading.
Regards.

You will get all AI features. It heats up a lot less, and it improved my battery life without sacrificing any performance, even improving it. Animations are not broken, and it even has an adaptive refresh rate. All camera features are working except for document scanning. You can find the ROM on the XDA page of Extreme ROM. Also, join their Telegram; they release patches for bugs there, and many people will help you with any of your problems.

Is it a sure thing that you'll get a green line after updates or it happens by chance?

Anonymous, 28 Mar 2024Is this still worth it in 2024 for camera and performance Yeah the camera is still solid and the performance is no problem, only issue is battery, battery health is rough after 4 years specially with fast charging, if you buy used check if the owner replaced it or not and if not u might wanna do that yourself, otherwise it barely holds on for a full day

I have this phone for 3 years. Still fast and everything, cool phone, but camera man... it sucks, my note 8 took better pics. Sometimes it can't even focus! So 6.5/10, the performance saves it and compensates, but camera is just awful. At best a decent phone still.
