Is anyone else dealing with this issue?

Sorry for the bad photo quality. I had to use my iPad to take it.

Edit: The phone in the picture is an S22+.

No need to apologize! It actually looks good. Really sorry you’re going through this.

Which Samsung phone is that?

It’s the S22+.

@Whit
Got it, thanks.

It’s disappointing to see such issues on a flagship device.

Wow, that phone isn’t even old :flushed:.

Yeah, I bought it in March 2022. I was hoping to keep it until late 2025. Fingers crossed it lasts that long.

Mine started with one green line, now there are three. Someone told me to power it off for a week to fix it, but that didn’t work.

My S21+ has six lines now. Four green, two white. They were all green before.

This happened to my S20+ as well. Two green lines that eventually turned pink.

I think it’s the AMOLED screens and heat. I never dropped my phone, but it got really hot during a system update.

@Lennox
Mine’s been overheating too, especially outdoors in tropical weather. That might be making it worse.

I was using a wireless charger :expressionless:.

Yeah, wireless chargers heat up phones a lot. I tried one but decided against it. I’ve been using super fast charging for a while, though :grimacing:.

@Whit
Is your phone still waterproof? Mine got so hot the back glass came loose. I’m using a Z Flip 5 now, but my S21+ is still around for YouTube and music.

Not sure, and I don’t plan to test it. Did you check if your battery is swollen?

@Whit
No swelling, just weak glue from the heat. I wireless charged daily for a year. You might want to check for gaps in the back panel just in case.

@Whit
Same here.
