Hi

I pirchased s20 fe 5g from amazon.
The first phone was heating up to much sometimes over 54 degrees so, I decided to get it replaced.
Now my phone has been replaced and i have just received the device an hour ago.

But this device is also having issues.
Whenever I am playing any HDR video on youtube the brightness levels flickers a lot.
I was not facing this error with the earlier phone but I don't know what is this from samsung.

I have learned my lesson now and won't go to samsung in the future as it turns out that I have to eventually use a defective product.

Keep it up SAMSUNG!

I too faced the same issue. Also not able to adjust the brightness while this flickering happens. Not sure whether it's a bug or feature which we can disable

Actually the brightness is supposed to increase when HDR videos are played.
Flickering is an issue with some samsung devices for a long time.

Probably, replace display, according to what the service centre says usually.

This is samsung, this has been happening for years, they don't bother about it. Never choose samsung again.

Using 4g version 😈
No problem
Medium to high graphics settings in CODM. No overheating. Ambient room temperature 26°C while gaming.
