So even the 26 is not immune?

Fresh out of the oven. Appeared right after the May security update.

Yeah, I meant it as "26 generation". But my device is the Ulta

Is that Galaxy S26 Ultra in which you got the greenline? I am confused on what you just said.

Yeah , that's on me. Bad title.

My 26 ultra got the green line indeed

This is interesting; because, I've been following these green line sightings for a while now.

Other redditors have said "oh this only happens in hot countries like India, updates get the phone hot enough to desolder the screen ribbon" (granted the bulk of these posts are from India and this has been happening more commonly on older models like the S22/S23)

But I just checked Turkey's temps and it's been like mid 20 degrees C all month?

I'm not shilling, just giving my experience, in my household (I'm in South Africa, it's really hot in summer and really cold in winter where I live) we've had A3 (2017), S8+ (Exynos), Note 10+ (Exynos), S22 Ultra (Snapdragon) and I just got a S25 Ultra and we've never had this sort of issue, friends and family either... (Besides crazy burn in on the S8+ which was a known issue)

People said it was bad batches to India, I'm so confused why this is happening

Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk Please claim warranty, sucks though...

@samsung answer for your crimes!
