There seem to be a lot of users mentioning faulty screens:

https://www.reddit.com/r/GalaxyS22/comments/sxbrtf/galaxy_s22_exynos_owners_reporting_defective/

Seems to be easily replicable. Those who received their phones, please try below steps.

- set the screen mode to natural, 120 Hz and WQHD
- Keep the default animated lock screen wallpaper.
- set up a fingerprint.
- lock and try unlocking the phone using a fingerprint.
- same screen issue shows up on the lock screen at the exact same location reported in the Reddit thread.

Same thing happens in screen mode natural and watching YouTube.

What is Samsung doing about this, as it is clearly not looking like an isolated case?

I learnt my lesson with the S21 ultra ..I brought it on day one of release .. it came and overheated all the time and sent back for refund ..I said to myself I will never buy a phone on release day again and wait to see what problems pop up !! I bought S20 ultra instead and never had one problem with it

Not sure if you are replying to my video, but if it is, its the pre applied sticker on the back. It was just out of the box.

I think there is a issue with the comments, the reply are jumping to the latest comments. But yeah just looking I changed to Vivid and it seems not issue, so hoping this is a software issue. But at £1.25k a phone this bad.
