Bugs:
1. Screenshot does not cover entire screen area
2. No smooth transition for notifications
3. Auto brightness calibration is unstable
.
.
Improvements:
1. Enable hide notch option
2. Battery percentage in status bar

headsup notification lost animation compared to third party roms like RR,AICP,OMNI.
and the statusbar icons are too crowded
Swiping down the notification bar once doesn't have a smooth animation it really bugs me!

I would rather say it is more advantage than shortcoming.
Battery percentage would be very pleasant. It's pretty much my only gripe about the phone so far.
when power button is pressed to lock the screen it first flashes red then turns off
similarly when brightness is reduced too quickly, screen has red tint and then brightness gets lowered
That must be your device. Mine has no such issues.

Is adaptive brightness or night light enabled?

It's supposed to be a turn off effect/animation, the screen goes off with that 3D-movie effect. It's not a bug.

If its supposed to be a feature, then why does it only shows red tint where the screen is white?
My uncle also has the same phone, i didn't notice this happening to his phone. Does it happen to you too?

Can you share a screenshot? We might be talking about totally different things.. And about the effect I'm talking about, i can't like intentionally notice it if i look at screen going off very carefully but only notice it sometimes (like an offguard thing), it barely lasts 0.1 second before screen goes off!

I think we're talking about the same thing if you say it lasts only a split second before screen going black, So i cant post a screenshot.
And the red flash only comes where the screen is on White UI, like when im in settings or google app. Where ever the the lcd is white, it flashes red just a fraction of a second before going off.

It looks more like an intentional thing rather than a bug to me! I doesn't cause any problem.

Here's the link to the video of that red flash, i made the video in slow motion. I asked the online vendor to replace it, and even went to service centre, they both denied.

Oh that looks bad.. That's not the thing that happens with me, it's goes like the black shadows of fonts and icons go briefly red before going off, it's probably a bug in that feature for u..

just noticed another bug.
the option to switch off ambient display is greyed off for me, everytime the phone is on table its always on the ambient display without any movement.
I lock the phone and it comes to ambient display within 2 seconds.
Has anybody had any issues connecting Bluetooth devices? I have an Anker Soundbuds Slim+ BT headset - and the X6 just doesn't see them. I can pair them with my Fitbit Ionic in 3 seconds, but when I try to pair them with the phone, they're simply not detected?! I have connected different headsets without issue. These buds work on BT 4.1, so they should work with this phone, right?!
D'oh. Just noticed that it had previously paired - so was hiding in "previously connected devices". Never mind...

See if u have ambient display turned to 'always during charging'.. And u can turn it off in the new notification setting inside ambient display.
Hi, I wanted to ask you if it happens to you that the red color and all red tones are too marked in this phone, is something very noticeable and even annoying to see sometimes because it does not show a real red. For example the YouTube logo, Netflix letters and in general everything that has red color.
Is there any way to fix it? maybe with a root app or with a custom rom.
Thank you (Sorry, google translator)

You can try adjusting the screen color temperature, setting > display > color mode and color temperature.
Hi, im coming from an iPhone...and im really struggling to enjoy the screen of the Galaxy S9+
the screen is sooooo saturated, even when i adjust to less red in: "Configuration > Screen
Plase, can you help me to make the screen less coloured or less saturated??
i think those colors are not real....
Thanks
If you're still on Oreo...
Go to Settings / Display / Screen Mode and try one of the settings other than Adaptive display.
Also, if the blue light filter is turned on, try turning it off. That will make the screen seem less red.
If you're on Pie, you should be able to do the same thing, but I don't know where in settings it might be.

It's possible you have a defective screen. If you can, take it to a phone store and compare yours to another one on display. Mine does not seem reddish to me, unless the blue light filter is turned on.
i believe the most accurate display mode is basic, so maybe try that one?
I just got this device..... don't understand the hype. How do I get the screen to show white as white? Not yellow. Tried all the suggested tricks. And adjust the slider to cool in settings. Nothing happens. I have read everything and tried everything.... Is this just how Samsung looks?
Maybe blue light filter is on?

No blue light filter on.
Did you get it used? May have been severely worn out. That or just a defective screen.

Yes it is used. My father used it only on vacations..so not So much.
May be wrong but have you checked in
Setting - Accessibility - Vision enhancement
There are options in there to change the way the screen will look.
ie: under colour lens menu having screen showing different colour filter when turn on.

Yes tried that also. I have tried everything but nothing happens. I had a friend over with another s9+ and his screen was just fine and with the same settings. I think it's just the screen that's broken or something.
I work with calibrated screens every day (I work in colour grading video and photos) and I must say that Samsung screens are NOT correct. I have an S20 ultra here also and it has some weird colour shift also.
My old Pocophone F1 has more accurate colour than these phones?
I also acknowledge that oled has some tint to it by default but I just find it frustrating paying a lot of money for these phones and not really knowing how my photos really look until I see them on my computer screen.
phone of my sister have same issue overheat then yellow screen !! I will ty to reset it and see what happen !!
we have just one solution just with always on display unlock with aod on !! and voila no issue with screen but if screen stay yellow your phone will overheat with screen issue ....
think is from update blue filtre is on in boot we cant deactivate it

No such issues. Screen is very good for me, and for reviewers. You can change color in display settings.
Found the culprit for the Screen color to be Color Correction.
The touch issues are yet to show up on the latest software update
