The Galaxy S20 Ultra might be the true flagship Samsung, but camera focus problems, supposed update fixes, and now green display tint issues have all compounded the most expensive Android phone ever.
According to reports by owners of the Exynos 990-powered Galaxy S20 Ultra, the most recent April update has introduced a green display tint issue. This comes mere days after complaints about autofocus and overheating issues from those with the Exynos S20 Ultra — which hasn’t had a particularly impressive start to life since release at Unpacked in mid-February.
The Samsung community forum is rife with owners complaining of issues that their displays suddenly exhibit green hues when set at the 120Hz refresh rate, and the brightness dips below 30%. It looks as though it affects a subsection of apps including Samsung Pay, the stock Samsung camera app, Google Chrome, PUBG Mobile, and a few more.
Some have even seen the issue manifest when the battery level dips below 5% and the device temperature goes beyond 40-degrees Celsius. This causes the display to revert back to the 60Hz refresh rate.
The guys over at have been able to replicate the display on the Exynos 990 variant of the S20 Ultra, but it’s not entirely certain if Snapdragon models exhibit the same problems. They noticed that the green tint tissues would appear when the refresh rate reverts to 60Hz inside apps that don’t natively support 120Hz refresh rates.
Samsung is suggesting that owners restore their devices in an attempt to resolve the problems. However, this isn’t fixing the problem for some. We’ll likely have to wait for a software fix for these display issues.
