When using my new Galaxy S25+ with pages that have white background I noticed that there is a considerable color shift when viewing the screen at even small angles. White color turns to blue and you don't need to tilt the phone much to see this. I also have Galaxy Note 9 and while it does have the same effect at very high angles, color stability when just slightly shifting the phone by a small amount is much much better to the point where it's not noticeable with normal use on Note 9 but it is noticeable on S25+. Is this normal for this model or my screen is just faulty? I have a Spigen glass protector on S25+ but nothing on Note 9.
Here is a video showing the color shift:

I don't know, I applied it before turning the phone on for the first time so as not to risk having the screen damaged. I read stories of people keeping the phone in their house waiting for screen protector to arrive and getting scratches anyway so I didn't want to risk anything happening to the screen.

Just out of curiosity, but have you had previous devices from other companies and not Samsung and tried this very test with similar screen sizes that is?
I only used Samsung Galaxy devices in the past and right now I only have the Note 9 to compare to. On the Note 9 the white color does shift to blue but you have to tilt it more than on S25+ to see so it's not distracting. Here is my Note 9:

all of my Samsung phones used to do this and most screens do some are just slightly worse than others if your unhappy contact Samsung but your likely to find replacement will be the same.
