Screen coating issue

[Juzza]

I have been a Samsung phone owner for 10+ years and have never had an issue with any of my phone screens, however I have the S25 Ultra and there are numerous parts of my screen than look blotchy! Feeling really disappointed in this and feel like I have potentially wasted a lot of money as it's only a few months old any advice please? Thanks in advance.

Hi! Welcome to the Samsung Members community!

Did you happen to use a screen protector before? To my knowledge, using one and then not using one can cause some odd issues.

I would contact Samsung directly to see if this is something they can repair, as that normally happens due to a coating on your phone wearing off.

The option I would suggest is to get a screen protector—not the most ideal method, but it will work. Even if it is a thin film.

Or
You can buy Oleophobic Coatings online and apply yourself- very cheap and just a spray

Mine is the same; the oleophobic coating has worn off on one side of the screen where I mostly swipe, so I've put a screen protector on it now. Shame that it hasn't lasted long, though.
