*** UPDATE: After following advice in here I'm currently using Firefox and this seems to help. Hopefully this means it's just a software issue that can be resolved in an update. ***
Random black screen in browser e.g. Chrome, Edge or Twitter app. Goes away if rotating phone to landscape & back, pressing the left App switching button, pressing power/lock and unlock again, or swiping from top. Especially happens when scrolling or on pages with video.
Have reinstalled, factory reset, cleared caches etc. Anyone else seen this?

Another poster in a different thread (Iphone McGee) advised to type Chrome://flags into chrome and disable 'Android SurfaceControl'.
This has done the trick for me and have had no issues since, worth a go until Samsung acknowledge it and provide an update.

Same problem here. I believe that is a fabricated default. Probably will send it back. Disappointed 😞

Believe it or not, a new phone shouldn't do this kind of issues, especially at this price. Mine is doing the same. I will look forward for a refund to be honest. Looking maybe to another manufacturer unfortunately 😕

Thanks for the replies, this is such a shame! I am really hoping this is just a software bug they can fix ASAP because this is not a cheap phone.
My S21 Ultra performed flawlessly , I never once had such an issue

I am experiencing the exact same whenever I'm using the Chrome browser.
I need to scroll back up for the screen to appear again, or turn the screen off and on again.
Really weird easy, it's really annoying on a brandxnew phone at this price range!
I hope it can be fixed soon with a software update.
