Hi @Jaybee360
I'm looking hard and can't seem to replicate what your seeing on your display 🤔
What screen are you accessing to get the exact colour conditions for this to show on your display ?
I'm happy to replicate exactly then and take a screenshot.
Definitely send feedback via your Samsung Members App.
Daily Driver > Samsung Galaxy s²⁵ Ultra 512Gb ~ Titanium Black.
The advice I offer is my own and does not represent Samsung’s position.

Google Keep Notes - can be seen in the rounded bar at the top.
You wouldn't be able to take a screenshot - it's not visible on screenshots.
Again, the image above isn't my screen and isn't as prominent as that.

Good point about a screenshot @Jaybee360
No I cannot see this on my phone.

I suspect you might get an answer along these lines, @Jaybee360 :
"The AMOLED display has a film attached on the back side that functions as a shield and absorption against the external light, and the film is removed on the part where the proximity/light(photoresistor) sensor and the fingerprint sensor are attached for proper working of the sensor. As a result, the brightness of the part sensor attached may look different when the screen is turned on for a long time, but those phenomenon disappear after turning off the screen in a certain period of time. Also, using a bright wallpaper can reduce the phenomenon. Those phenomenon are not a product defect, so you can be secure and relieved while using the device."
(Or, at least you should. 😉 The above is from the S23 Series Consultant Guide we have at our side.)

Any ideas why it would just appear all of a sudden? Any chance it'll just disappear again?
The only thing I can think is that I had accidental touch protection on, so maybe that's contributed to it?

No worries. My interpretation of the guidance is that it may have always been there if you had the screen on for long enough, but it just wasn’t noticeable to you until now; and that it’ll fade away after the screen is turned off for a bit. And it’s possible that Accidental Touch Protection has contributed to making it more noticeable – although there’s nothing in the guidance to indicate it specifically. The guidance is more about if the screen has been on for a long(ish) period of time, and differences in the light accumulation characteristics of the “semiconductor elements” (and of course, it being more noticeable with a darker background).

It's really not noticeable unless I look for it.
Again, thanks for the helpful reply! Appreciate it
