TL;DR
- Complaints are popping up on-line that the Galaxy S24 Extremely has washed-out colours on the show.
- The issue seems to be software-based, because the “Vivid” and “Pure” profiles exhibit few variations.
- Android Authority contacted Samsung for an evidence however didn’t obtain one.
For years now, Samsung telephones have had a number of coloration profiles. The “Pure” profile lets you see colours as true to life as potential, whereas the “Vivid” profile supplies extra saturation to create “pushed” colours which can be stunning however unrealistic.
The Galaxy S24 Extremely, although, seems to have an issue relating to displayed coloration tones. Of us who’ve gotten their units sooner than anticipated are hitting Reddit to speak about “washed-out” colours.
We have been interested in this ourselves, so we in contrast our Galaxy S23 Extremely to the Galaxy S24 Extremely. Positive sufficient, with each telephones on the “Vivid” setting, colours appeared a lot duller on the 2024 telephone in comparison with its 2023 counterpart. You’ll be able to see how they evaluate within the photograph above.
We reached out to Samsung about this drawback, however didn’t get a press release on the matter. We’ll replace this text ought to we hear again. Nevertheless, that is doubtless a software program drawback.
Galaxy S24 Extremely washed-out colours: Software program or {hardware}?
We sincerely hope this coloration concern isn’t hardware-related. If that’s the case, that can imply numerous recalled units and really, very upset patrons.
For now, although, we’re pretty positive it is a software program concern. When the Galaxy S23 Extremely and Galaxy S24 Extremely are each on the “Pure” setting, they give the impression of being very related. If you change to “Vivid,” although, the Galaxy S24 Extremely doesn’t appear to alter all that a lot. This leads us to consider it is a drawback with One UI 6.1, which is unique to the Galaxy S24 Extremely in the intervening time. It’s potential One UI 6.1 lacks the suitable “Vivid” coloration profile, so nothing adjustments if you change to it.
After all, it could be good if we knew for positive that that was the case. Till Samsung provides us a press release on the matter, all we are able to do is speculate.
