The Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra is among the top flagships you can get right now. So it came as a bit of a shock to some owners when they discovered an irritating red tint around the middle of the screen. Samsung then offered some good news, saying this wasn’t a hardware issue at all and could be patched with a software update. The company is now delivering this message front and center to customers affected by screen discoloration on their Galaxy S26 Ultra.
A notice has just gone up for South Korean users of the Samsung Members app, shared by SamMobile, confirming that the red screen problem can be patched via a software update or a “software calibration fix.” While the latter can be achieved by visiting a local Samsung service center, the company hasn’t provided a detailed timeline for the broader software update.
