Samsung Galaxy S24 Owners Report Grainy, Defective Displays
-
Many Galaxy S24 owners are reporting a grainy texture issue on the phone's display, especially visible on dark backgrounds.
-
The grainy texture problem appears to be a hardware defect; some users got replacement units while others had to escalate to get a new phone.
-
Some S24 users also report horizontal bars and banding on the display at low brightness levels.
-
Smartphone OLED screens often struggle with uniformity issues at low brightness, so this may not be specific to the S24.

Apart from the defects, the S24's display has some major improvements like much higher peak brightness and PWM refresh rate.
