I have a Note 20 Ultra, it's about a month old. I woke up this morning and noticed my screen had what looked to be a water spot on it. I tried rubbing it off to no avail. I DO NOT have a screen protector on my phone so it's not that. It looks to be under the glass. I'll post a picture soon as well. I've never had this happen with a phone before and it's never been in water.

Immediately take it to service center... if it's water and it enters your device.. it will hamper your warranty.

Use a hair dryer to dry the phone. OR rush to SC and tell them strongly that the display is not fully water proof

there is always a thin plastic film over the display which should be removed after unboxing. maybe that's what causing it. try to remove it.

I too would like to know. The phone is a little less than a year old and now it's starting to do this. Never goes near water or even outside, strictly an office phone and I bought it brand new. For a $1200 piece of equipment it's kind of upsetting.

This has occured on my wifes phone, she's had it for 3 weeks.  They won't let me return it for a new one because the return policy is 2 weeks.  Maybe if they didn't send them out w/ problems we wouldn't be asking for a new one.

 

Instead they want me to bring it to a service center... we didn't cause a weird bubble to appear, and we can't make it go away.

My phone has a weird streak across it, if we rub it just right, it will go away for a few hours, then comes back.  Nothing like a bubble; 

 

But I called about it in time, so they should take mine back.

Made an appointment, went to the recommended store, they looked at both phones, the pink gets a new screen ordered.

They took a look at mine, 'buffed' it out.  Handed it back to me and said it just needed the buff.  I explained that I 'wiped' it away too, but it comes back.  

5 Minutes later, while we were still looking at my wife's phone w/ the tech, I handed my phone back and said - there it's back.

He said he could order a new screen for my phone as well; and wasn't sure why that just happened.  

0hh, and by the way, a day and a half turn around on the work... I explained to the techs we needed the phones, as we don't have backups; they said 'just go turn it in, they'll fix it'... clearly they aren't aware of how things are processed.

2 S22+ phones ordered, 2 phones w/ different back screen problems, rating on this phone isn't very high at this point.
