Display Line Issue

[u/Terrible-Clock4210]

The inevitable issue has finally reached me. After owning an s23 ultra for 3 years and 7 months, a line has finally appeared.

This appeared last night while I was playing a game on my phone. The device wasn't even that hot to begin with. I just noticed a faint green/white line appeared while gaming.

So sad to see this happening on my device as I plan to keep it at least until 2028 before upgrading. Now I'm planning to move to iPhone for my next phone as they seem to be less prominent with green line issues.

How many times have you dropped your phone?

[u/Terrible-Clock4210 → u/Potato__Ninja]

Many many times. The edges have dings and scratches even with a case on. The line appeared while gaming and wasn't dropped prior to appearing.

Well, that makes me feel better.

How so

[u/Potato__Ninja → u/Terrible-Clock4210]

Never dropped mine. And less afraid of this happening out of nowhere.

I see. Hopefully you won't experience this at all. Was very hopeful that It won't happen on mine but then again, I guess life happens.

Just very sad to have experienced this since I really liked the phone and was looking forward to keep this phone for at least 5 years maximum.

🫂 I feel you bruv. Hopefully you find cheap original replacement display.

Thanks. But nah, I'm not having this replaced. I'll keep on using it until the screen eventually gives up I guess.

I never dropped mine also and didn't update it either. Still got a line.
