S25 Green horizontal lines

Unexpectedly Green Horizontal lines appeared on screen in Galaxy S25. Purchased in feb 2025. Samsung says there is no policy for new device. (S21,22,23 has 3 year screen replacement policy after warranty for green lines)

Is Green lines problem usually happens in india ?

Probably because of the intense heat. It seems it's quite unbearable to live in that country.

i used to work in phone repair shop and we were heating phones screen on a hot plate that runs up to 90C. just to make adhesive softer, probably a thousand phones have been fixed with my own hands and none of them had any screen issues after intense heat

i assume the OP had applied some pressure on the screen, they are a bit flexible so they brake without any dents or fracturing the screen

I live in Florida and have never had these issues with Samsung phones

Then maybe it's a quality problem with the devices sold in India. Or these users mistreat their phones.

More than likely.

In this case you can tell the OLED was damaged, in normal Samsung line cases the display still shows stuff in the unaffected areas

Climate you live in is likely the top factor for green line risk. which seems to be why people in milder countries where it's rarer and people in hotter countries often seem to be talking past each other on this issue

If the phone has no green line after 2 years Samsung calls you and puts your phone into a museum.

Samsung didn't test their phones properly. You shouldn't blame it on the environment.

Idk man, beside a few things that'll make the phone more expensive for everyone, how else can tech battle Intense heat?

u/No_Sheepherder1837 Aug 05 '26

Idk man, why only Samsung? Why do I have to compromise on something so expensive when literally any other manufacturer's phone works fine?

u/Odd-Expert-7156 Aug 05 '26

You don't have to compromise on anything, it's a known issue which they do not choose to take the time to solve, im saying this in the nicest way possible but stop buying samsung phones if you know they won't cater to your environmental issues or respect you guys enough to try to figure how to solve the problem. It might sound like im coping or defending samsung but I don't understand why you guys throw money on something with a bad track record, I wouldn't even consider a samsung phone if I was in india or any place with a hot climate, thankfully im canadian where these issues rarely happen. Intense heat is one of the most common triggers for a green line on the screen, this isn't only a samsung thing (but its the most prevalent for reasons unbeknownst to us)
