Green tint on screen

Last Update date : Oct 23. 2023

Samsung's adaptive super AMOLED screen optimizes the color range, saturation, and sharpness of the picture depending on what you're watching or doing. You also have the ability to customize the color settings to match your preferences.

When you lower the screen brightness on a dark screen (such as Dark mode), the screen color looks green (green stains, greenish) or purple. This phenomenon isn’t a device defect.

AMOLED is a display using self-lighting of each pixel and has a characteristic that allows seeing very dark areas that LCD cannot express.

Thus, due to fine current differences of each pixel in extremely low brightness (luminance) areas (such as a black or very dark screen), the degree of differences may vary but some areas of the AMOLED display may show differences in brightness. This is a typical characteristic of AMOLED display. Due to the fine characteristics difference of the semiconductors elements that make up AMOLED display, the brightness may vary slightly depending on the device, and it does not affect to the device's performance.

To reduce the phenomenon, follow the steps below.

Change the display mode to ‘Light’ mode. Open the Settings  > Display > Light.

Choose a new display setting on your device if the screen is too intense for your liking. Or, you can turn up the brightness if it's too dark or difficult to see.  

Open Setting > Display > Adjust the Brightness.

Go to Settings > Software update > Download and install. If new software is available, you can choose to Install now or Schedule install.
