Color Tone Bug Identified

I've noticed a common complaint about the S25 Ultra’s display and camera colour accuracy, with many saying the colours seem off—especially skin tones appearing unnatural. After some deeper research, I identified the root cause: by default, the S25 Ultra has a tint level of +40, which skews colours towards blue and results in an overly greenish tone in certain lighting conditions.

I confirmed this by using the Blackmagic Camera app, which exposed the default tint setting at +40. Reducing this to 0 immediately improved colour accuracy, making skin tones look more natural. Samsung should address this issue with a software update or, at the very least, provide users with better controls to adjust tint in the default camera app.

Thank you for sharing your findings on the Samsung Community Forum 👋 @ZeroManYT 

May I suggest to also send this directly to Samsung via your Samsung Members App so that Samsung can analyse this.

The advice I offer is my own and does not represent Samsung’s position.

I upgraded from the S9+ to the S25+ and noticed the greenish tone instantly. The screen mode settings don't change much at all. Very surprised and disappointed. My s9+ display looks much better. How do I reduce the tint to 0?

Yesterday, my S25 Ultra suddenly changed its tint to the one you describe. It's been fine since I got it a few weeks ago, until yesterday. I was on the road, using Android Auto using Waze at the time, so I did not notice the change until I got out of the car at my destination.

I just found a fix for the issue on my phone. Colour Corrections was activated under Accessibility/Vision enhancements.
