[@LKR307]

To see the grainy u have to be in a dark environment with close to no light, after which u can open the settings apps or quick panel in dark mode to see the visible grains, according to my knowledge more than 90% of the S24 ultras have this, as for the rest its close to nothing but still exists at some point.

[@joshuabergeman354]

I feel like it's a result of the Gorilla Armor. Because the panel has micro beads that absorb and spread ambient light across the panel instead of reflecting it back at you like a normal display would. What I think is happening is that in very low light conditions with the brightness turned to minimum those same micro beads creat the grain. Honestly people probably shouldn't be using their phones in those situations anyway because it's not good for your sleep cycle

[@LKR307]

@@joshuabergeman354 i do agree that most users won't notice it as mostly we don't use it in such dark environments, but what about the minority whose occupation or any other needs depends on the usage of phone in this lighting conditions , aren't they getting a downgraded experience? Moreover, how can samsung just justify their fault by saying such a condition is quite normal when paying this much money

[@joshuabergeman354]

@@LKR307 the thing is if my suspicion is correct then it's an unfortunate compromise in order to have a screen that is easily visible in harsh light. Not really Samsung's fault but just a byproduct of the Gorilla Armor glass. And while it's not great for people who have to use their phone in those situations it's not so bad in my experience that it's unusable

[@sankarsaha149]

My device also have this grainy issue. But I don't really mind because it is just that use case where It is not really a game changer

[@joshuabergeman354]

@@sankarsaha149 exactly how I feel. It's a very specific case where it is even noticable and for the most part people shouldn't even be using their phones in those conditions because for the most part they should probably be sleeping and not using their phones since that might affect their sleep health I personally think it's just a byproduct of the way the anti reflective screen works and it's good enough that I don't mind that slight compromise

Unfortunately Samsung refuses to support Dolby Vision in their displays whether it be phones or TVs and honestly it's a bummer when almost all the competitors support Dolby Vision and at that price it is supposed to be master of all trades. Dolby Vision content is also growing rapidly and is not a niche HDR format that was 5-6 years ago. Really disappointing to see Samsung being stubborn instead of thinking about its consumers.

[@abhitsinha8813]

Yeah, Samsung never ever gave Dolby Vision support to any phone till now. They can easily do but don't. Same for the hi-res audio codec certification.

[@abhitsinha8813]

@@sanyam7722 Yeah but Dolby Vision is worldwide standard for any HDR content in any device that supports it. I dont think Samsung has anything like that. Even for Hi-Res audio codecs support, it is a Japanese standard that some phone companies as well as earphones companies comply this standard.

From a braindead consumer. It looks amazing, cheers me up on a downer days. Cheers me up by just looking at it. (Like, 'Yeah, I'm a ballin"). Attention grabbing. Now on my more serious usage. Amazing. The sizing of the 24 Ultra, process power lets me do so much from Spreadsheets, powerpoint and cloud storage management. Multi-app management and usage. Detail photography for photo documenting issues, damage and safety hazards at my job.

Consequently, they informed me that the display replacement for a second-hand device would not be covered under warranty. If you say yes, I've been using this phone from the beginning, then they will match your ID card to the phone's bill. So please koi second-hand Vivo phone mat Lena Meri pas proof bhi hai
