Pink vertical line.

Woke up with a surprise on my S20+, a mysterious pink vertical line appeared on my phone screen. Done restarting and rebooted my phone but no avail. Have not try factory setting yet.

[nazzzz]

it's due to software issue.

visit the nearest samsung centre to get a free screen replacement, even if your warranty period has ended.

Free kah? Yours what model?

[nazzzz]

i'm using Galaxy M62. I'm just passing the info.

yes it's free. For S20+ model, it's free. Those Samsung users who have replaced their screen due to this issue said that this free replacement will end at the end of this year. Hurry up!

[Ekbp]

But mine is Note 10+

[nazzzz]

oh, hmm... no info for Note 10+ so far

[FongKP]

Yes...you are right. I gotten my free screen replacement eventhough my phone warranty had lapsed.

First of all sorry to hear this from you. But you are not the only one out there with such issue.

To be honest, i hardly will say this is a software issue (i might be wrong) because i do have such problem where my older phone display goes green (without any green or pink line yet) and still can be use and charge. Everything is fine still just the screen is greenish. If i want to see a lot of green line i can actually do it too, all i need to do is turn ON the always on display and charge the phone. Lol

The fact is:

1) I never do any of Android update (no software update) since the purchase (the only update i did was application update)

2) my phone is flat screen

What i can say is much more to luck when the first day we make the purchase. If i am lucky, i might safe else goes to green hulk. Lol. To be honest, i still will buy Samsung mobile phone but i won't go for S series or further for sure. Lol. 

** No offense ya, just my personal thought only.

My Note 10+ screen went yellowish after major software updates. They won't responsible. Will ask you look for their technicians to earn extra bucks. Don't fix your phone, turn to other brand. This brand is getting useless

To be honest, after the warranty period, Samsung will not going to bother it. I believe any other brand out there is also the same. My older phone (no warranty) got such problem too but i don't care to go for a replacement because i am sure they will charge me like hell even though the problem is not come from us (the user).

For me, i rather spend a phone which is not too much expensive and this is why i won't go for S series anymore. But i do stick with Samsung because of the ecosystem (actually Epal ecosystem is not bad too). Phone is not my main priority so spend more on it is not worth so i rather go for something which is worthy.  

If looking at other brands, hmmm. Actually i did some google search long time ago too where some of them are facing green display issue too. So switching to another brand is really depend.

I always say it is a gambling or luck when we purchase a new devices.
