I don't have a defective S5e, it's you who are unhappy with it so now you know who's bitter. You also complained about icon sizes and claim to use Nova launcher and have an android phone since 201, but until now, don't know how to set icon sizes and DP settings (Minimum width) in developer options. Now you know who's ignorant. :)

Anonymous, 26 Jul 2020I said icon sizes, you said use developer settings. I said ... moreMy goodness! Just try inputting 300dp in the 'Minimum width' under your tab S5e's developer options so you'll see just how insanely illiterate you are in terms of android customization. The icons and text will be larger but you can adjust the font sizes and reduce them in settings - display - font size and style.
Now you can also ICON SIZE adjustments in Nova launcher Prime - REGARDLESS of 'Minimum width (DP)" settings you set in the developer options but the maximum and minimum icon sizes attainable with Nova launcher Prime will be different under different "Minimum width (DP)" settings. To enable developer options, go to settings - about tablet - software information. Tap 'build number' several times until it says 'you are now a developer'.
There I've just spoonfed everything to you. Now you try it so you won't look mentally challenged.

I said it doesn't adjust icon sizes only and you said yeah it doesn't. Do you even read what you comment yourself? I know I shouldn't laugh at your mental condition but this is too funny xD.

You've been using android since 2012 yet you don't know how to set DP settings in developer options to increase sizes of objects you see on the screen? DP settings are independent of the icon sizes. A standard 100% icon and text size under a DP setting (Minimum width) of 300 will be HUGE while the same 100% icon and text size under a DP setting (Minimum width) of 1000 will make BOTH much smaller. Try it! And if you don't know how to enable developer options, you can Google it!
You can further adjust icon sizes in custom launchers like Nova Prime REGARDLESS/INDEPENDENT of DP settings which gives you additional control over icon sizes, grid and overall interface.

Dp is for display sizes and not for symbols only, hence why it's in the developer settings. I'm using Android since 2012, don't try to "teach" me kid. You have no arguments why it's missing in the OneUI launcher settings.

Icon sizing HAS Nothing to do with the Android version, OK. There's a DP setting in developer options since Android 8.0 Oreo. You set the 'minimum width' to any DP setting you want to get an IPAD like huge icons juvenile experience. Apple never gave its users those options because its typical users are like YOU. That's probably why you have been a long time Samsung phone user but still don't know how to do Android customizations because you've been imprisoned by Apple's walled garden (or is it a crib?) for so long.

Same for jelly scroll issue which 'experts' claim to be caused by an upside-down Amoled panel in the Oneplus 5. And I'd like to add. Yes, I'm an engineer.

If you exceed those upper and lower specs tolerances, the issue is going to be VERY noticeable. Like color shift in Amoled screens I mentioned earlier. 'Experts' say it's present in all Amoled displays due to the 'Nature' of the technology, not like in IPS. But guess what? It is still all about specs. When you exceed those tolerances, people and customers are going to notice it.

Not all users in those threads h... moreI'd like to add, not until I looked at the Oneplus 5 YouTube videos where the users demonstrated just what 'jelly scroll' is, did I realize that it really does look horrible. Like touching a screen that wobbled like a jelly. I can't imagine having that on my S5e. I personally can't tolerate it and will return my S5e tab immediately if I had it in portrait or landscape mode.
What my unit does have and some others here too mentioned is screen uniformity issues. It's a greenish to pinkish color shift when the tablet is tilted. The color shift intensity varies from one unit to another. With many tab S6 units I've seen at the mall, they're practically non-existent. Mine had a moderate to severe color shift intensity. Color corrections and dark mode made it less visible fortunately, so I decided not to return my S5e.

It doesn't change the fact it's not widespread because if it were, it would at least make it to the top 100 search results when you type "jelly scroll" in Google search. Enough said. Better for you to return your defective unit so you'll be less bitter about your S5e.

That&#... moreHello ipad lover. It's not a big, fat, lie. It's not like your false allegation that this tablet is only good for movies and "TERRIBLE for everything else".
There were only two mentions on jelly scroll issues in this forum from legitimate (true owners) of S5e users since I've had this tablet and came to this forum. The rest are from iPad fanatics WHO DON'T EVEN OWN the tablet.
If your S5e tablet has it, have it exchanged because it is certainly not normal. Mine doesn't have it and many others here don't have it and it certainly is NOT a widespread issue like you would like other non-users/non-owners here to believe. Certainly not even nearly close to the widespread Oneplus 5 jelly scroll issue!
Don't believe me? Type the two words 'jelly scroll' in Google search with no mention of a phone or tablet model to find out which devices are the most discussed that has it, get it?
Google search results are ranked according to popularity and frequency/hits. Guess what? No S5e in the FIRST 100 search results!
Majority are about the Oneplus 5 and a very few (much farther in rank), from the Moto Z2 Force. No tab S5e mention of jelly scroll in the first 100 results for the search keyword "jelly scroll". Ergo, it means that despite the tab S5e being a very popular tablet from a very popular brand (Samsung), that has been around for a year: the fact that there's practically no mention of it in the first 100 search results proves my point it is not a widespread issue although a few lemons (defective units) may have it since no manufacturer has ZERO defectives, even your beloved iPad. Who's the liar now? :)

Many tab S5e users don't have it but if your unit has it, you should return or have it exchanged because jelly scrolling is an amoled screen defect. I certainly can't tolerate it if my tablet or phone had it.
