Samsung announces update to fix the bland displays on the Galaxy S24 series Comments

OMG this is so awesome! More manufacturers should do it! I was talking about this for so long that there should be 3-4 modes, 2 accurate modes for SRGB and DCI-P3 and 2 vivid modes for SRGB and DCI-P3. This Vividness slider is a SOLID step in the right direction for Samsung as the Natural mode is SRGB only and very accurate but the Vivid mode is DCI-P3 and quite vivid. With this slider, users get the best of both worlds. I usually bash Samsung but wow this is a great feature. Specialised modes will always be better since they can be tuned better for accuracy but this slider can be implemented by others in their own vivid mode so users who want slightly vivid colors instead of truly neutral colors can just turn the slider to 10-15% and users who want bonkers colors can just slide it up to 100%.

So first it was reported as being working as intended, and now they're going to push an update to "fix" the issue?
Like what?? Are they just going to do it to cater to those people who are addicted to oversaturated colour profile?

AlienNextDoor, 14 Feb 2024You are factualy, objectively wrong.
There is nothing natural aboit srgb. It just doesn... moreThat's not how Natural mode works on One UI. Natural mode performs display color management depending on the color gamut of your content. 99% of people produce SDR content in sRGB, so it is sane to default to that. But if your content contains metadata that it was produced for viewing in a wider color gamut, the phone switches to that, e.g. for HDR content. You will notice that colors are allowed to become much more saturated than typical sRGB SDR content when you watch HDR videos, especially those test videos on YouTube that tend to push the saturation to make things more eye-catching.
Vivid mode saturates *everything* past sRGB. Professionally produced content that was specifically color-graded to look correct on sRGB will look oversaturated. It is objectively the inaccurate mode if you care about color accuracy.

GAMIR3DH, 14 Feb 2024Thats what they are doing. Defaulted to natural. People cried is not saturated so now there�... moreNo, I've always used natural over vivide and still do. I've owned every galaxy first day since the s4. And usually the colors improve. I've always complained about the colors untill they came up with the natural option but when I got the S24 the colors are faded compared to my s23 in natural .
So they did something.
Also my friend who's using video complains because of the reds on his background but he still wanted vivid

I don't see how someone could seriously call these displays "bland".
When they look like the Gameboy four shades of snot, call it bland and I'll listen.

I don't like "Vivid" mode, I take plenty of photos so the look on my phone does not correlate with the real-world look when sent to PC/TV.
But if people like Vivid, they should have the option to toggle it.
That's one of the beauties of Android compared to iOS- options.
Once you take that away from the people, what's there to offer over iOS?

There's a number of people who'll never change the screen color option, with time more and more people might ease up on the Natural profile and never get back to the radioactively saturated Vivid profile?

BigDisplay, 14 Feb 2024I rly don't see any difference on this S24U vs all other S Ultra i had. People compare a new AMOLED to displays that have aged for 1-2 years, not realizing that the diodes DEGRADE over time. Blue pixels decay the fastest, causing greens and reds to pop more.
Go back to last year, or the year before, or the year before that, and people complain that their new phones are less vivid than their old ones. OLED panels are made of organic materials, they literally change the more you use them.

The reason your old phone looks more vivid is because the diodes have decayed in efficiency to various degrees. It's hilarious to see people complain about it. This is the biggest nothingburger phone controversy of all. And I don't even have an S24U, I'm sticking with my S23U for another year

Anonymous, 14 Feb 2024Isn't it sad how many people prefer these fake oversaturated colours? Even in pictures.
... moreYou are factualy, objectively wrong.
There is nothing natural aboit srgb. It just doesn't encompass a whole lot of colours.
Now say you have a display that can show P3 or even rec2020 colours. Why would you restrict it to just srgb? Especially in content that is made for a wider gamut, like Oneui, it isn't obersaturated, it's naturally more colourful.
Bit even for content made for srgb, why do you insist on oled panels, with hdr10 and 3k peak brightness, and then restrict it to dark mode, 10% brightness and srgb?!?!?
You're just as senseless as people who cried for glass backs instead of plastic, but never use their phone without a case.

If its hardware issue then we have to force them recall all galaxy s24ultra phones with grainy screen as it's non fixable hardware issue and could hurt our eyes on long-term usage.
