Hi all

I have the S22 ultra 256gb.

I have the screen going off bug mostly when browsing on chrome but this morning noticed something quite annoying.

Reading the news this morning with the light out so not to disturb my wife, had screen brightness down to the minimum, eye comfort shield on and the various apps in dark mode.

 

On twitter, reddit, and browsing a forum on Opera browser because it has a good night mode.

All looks as it should until you scroll up or down.

The text flickers in brightness, enough in a dark room to be uncomfortable on my eyes. 

I tested with the eye care off but still there, tested on standard refresh rate, still the same.

Just sat in the kitchen now with lights on  so screen brightness is a bit higher. Eye care is off now and dark mode is off.

Even typing this text so black text on a white background, if I scroll it up and down a centimetre and watch the text closely, it very slightly distorts sort of super faint ghosting on the horizontal parts of words. 

Hard to explain but I cannot un see it now. 

If I look at the same pages on my S9 plus I have none of this.

The biggest thing is the flickering when at minimum brightness and dark mode on twitter and such, this was very uncomfortable on my eyes in a fully dark room. Or opera browser dark mode with the screen brightness at minimum it looks rubbish.

Any one else noticed this or can maby test it in a dark room.

Hello, Try all of the following settings if exist in your phone somewhere.

1) Settings> Accessibility > EXTRA DIM > Turn on > Also click it if you can and max it.

2) Settings> Display > Turn off Adaptive brightness or Auto Brightness

3) Settings > Display > Colors > if it's on Saturated or other, set it to Natural Color and change it towards to blue a bit, usually on the left it's blue and red on the right, but that's up to you, the main point is to have Natural Colors.

is important to do all of the above to be fully satisfied with this issue, if the options are not in those paths, please google for ex: "Samsung model blabla Where is the Extra dim option/how to increase dim etc", or Changing Color option etc etc
