Samsung smartphone users are still struggling with the recurring issue of green and pink lines appearing on their screens, a problem that seems to predominantly affect devices equipped with Super AMOLED displays. Although Samsung has recognized the issue and introduced a free repair policy for out-of-warranty Galaxy Note 20 and Galaxy S20 series phones impacted by this problem, it’s worth mentioning that other devices are also suffering from similar screen anomalies.

Galaxy Z Flip 4: A New Addition to Samsung’s Green Line Woes

A notable case involves a user in India who experienced a green line on the upper left side of their Galaxy Z Flip 4, just five months after purchase. Despite the user’s assurance of no physical damage, the service center refused a free screen replacement, claiming the issue was not covered under warranty. The user’s desperate attempts to contact Samsung via Twitter were met with silence, leaving them feeling ignored and dismissed.

Samsung’s handling of this ongoing issue has been puzzling and inconsistent. While they’ve generously offered a free screen replacement for an out-of-warranty Galaxy S22 Ultra and Note 20 Ultra, they haven’t extended the same courtesy to all affected devices. This selective approach could potentially damage Samsung’s reputation, particularly among its loyal customers who have invested in high-end models. It’s also worth noting that some users have reported white lines on their displays, further highlighting the seriousness of this issue. For instance, an Indian user recently reported a white line on the screen of their Samsung Galaxy A71.

The frustration caused by this issue has led some users to take the drastic step of selling their devices. Interestingly, these screen issues persist even after firmware updates, suggesting that the root cause is not physical damage or user mishandling.

Given these troubling developments, it’s crucial for Samsung to take decisive action and prioritize resolving these widespread user complaints. By doing so, they can demonstrate their commitment to customer satisfaction, potentially mitigating any harm to their reputation. Samsung should also offer comprehensive support through their official service centers and social media to reassure their customers and maintain their trust.
