I'm using Galaxy S23 bought it in June 2023. 
I'm noticing a black rectangular patch on the display, while watching videos on any OTT app in landscape mode., I've observed this on YouTube, Amazon prime, Netflix.

However the patch doesn't appear while using any other app, or even while watching videos in portrait mode.

If your S23 is running One UI 6, then it could be the screen burn-in issue, since one ui 6 lacks a feature for OLED screens called Pixel shifting.

Its known bug in ONE UI 6. Hoping to get a fix in next SW update. But the damage it caused to the display is irreversible, even if fix is provided.

This is a screenshot of the dark spot I am talking about. (First picture)
It can also be seen in gallery but only when I switch to landscape mode.

I later restarted my phone. And now the dark spot is gone. (Second picture)
