While it's great to see that you loved the incredible battery life, we're sorry to see that you didn't enjoy the screen on the S26 Ultra, Anthony. This certainly isn't the experience we would expect from such a premium device. This model benefits from the crystal clear Dynamic AMOLED 2X display, which provides you epic detail and comfortable viewing. Though the Privacy Display can change viewing ability from different angles when activated, it shouldn't impact the usage of the screen when turned off. When you face any issues, our Support Teams are always here to help. They are experts in our devices, and always equipped to get to the root of the issue you are facing, and provide a solution. For future reference, you can find their contact details and operating hours here: https://www.samsung.com/uk/support/contact/ It's disappointing that you have decided to return this model, we hope that you continue to enjoy your S25 Edge for years to come. ^SK at Samsung Support
