Phone is completely unusable now, anyone facing the same issues after the newest update? Screen is just in the constant state of green/white flickering.

If it is a software issue, does anyone know (from past experience) when the next patch will come out? Not planning to pay samsung $400 for something that wasn't our fault...

This is nearly all problems with all Samsung phones as they aged. That's also one reason why many people decided to go for iPhone as they're usable for many years, unlike Samsung which has tons of problems and we paid 1000$+ for it and after only a year or 2 of using, the screen was rendered useless, even after updates or what. But nevertheless, Samsung is still the best smartphone brand.

FYI, my older Galaxy Note20 Ultra was updated to the December patch last year, and started to show green screen from the AMOLED Display. After the Android 12 One UI4 update, the phone still did not recover and maintain it's green screen which ought me to switch for the Galaxy S21 Ultra.

Nope, Samsung basically ended the Galaxy Note series which TM. Roh himself had confirm it already. I'm definitely keeping all of my Galaxy Note phones even if it's broken or usable, it's always going to be with me forever🤩

Bring it down to the friendly service centre staffs to let them take a look dude... Just check around how much needed to fix the issue then u can decide whether to proceed repair or not... Anyway keeping the last legendary Note 20 Ultra a workable phone is even more meaningful right?
