I tired reseting the phone & flashing firmware again. Nothing changed. Dark areas looks terrible & pixelated. Light grey look like greenish. Definitely not screen burn since it's barely used.  S9 had this same issue but a software issue fixed it. 

Here's an article of exact same issue on S9 which was fixed with an update

Hope Samsung will officialy acknowledge this issue

Can reverting to an old firmware fix this issue?. I was thinking of firware before the issue was noticed.

Got the same issue on my Note 8 from China. I am a pure fans of Samsung, but very disappointed this time. I have note 3, note edge, s6 edge, Note 8 and note 10+, but this might be the last time i buy a Samsung phone if the problem would not be fixed.
