I noticed that when watching a particular YouTube video, multiple thin pink/white/blue/green vertical bars appear across the screen at random every 5 or 10 seconds or so.

Problem is only reproducible when switching video between 4k/1440p resolution AND in WiFi only.

Device: Samsung S21
Android Security updates: January 2023

Thanks for the reply. I can confirm my friend who also has a Samsung S21 exhibits the same problem. Therefore this problem is reproducible on more than one device.

Thanks. Just to re-iterate. The issue is only reproducible if you switch from 1440p to 4k (or vice-versa) resolution whilst watching that YouTube video in WiFi only. It is also reproducible on Chrome browser as well. And it occurs on more than one S21 mobile device.
