Some Samsung Galaxy S8 users are complaining about reddish tint on display

Samsung Android

Samsung Galaxy S8 pre-orders have started shipping, and the first complaints about the device have already started pouring in. Some Korean customers are complaining about a reddish tint on their units' displays.

Correcting the phone's color display settings allegedly doesn't improve the situation.

Reacting to the complaints, Samsung said, "It is not a quality problem and it can be adjusted with the phone itself. If the color still appears to be reddish, customers can change it at the service center."

That, however, hasn't helped as some users said their phone's display panel was already optimized. We'll monitor the situation and update you if this turns out to be more than an isolated issue.
