4 Android updates useless if I’ve to deal with green/pink lines on Samsung display
Flagship Samsung phones come with support for 4 Android updates. Longer software support is great, but this becomes useless if Samsung can’t stop those frustrating green/pink lines problem from the display panels of its flagship phones.
A large number of Galaxy S20 Plus users faced the green/pink lines problem on their phone’s display. This issue appeared even without any kind of drop, external damage, or water insertion. And over the past few days, the same problem reported on Galaxy S21 and Note 20 flagships.

It looks like Samsung’s display panels for flagship phones are not so long-lasting. No doubt, the green lines appear on a limited number of units, but there’s no proper support to get rid of them. The company saved itself from the S20 Plus hurdle by offering free-of-cost screen replacement in mid-2022.
However, it has not yet acknowledged the same for newly surfacing complaints by Galaxy S21 and Galaxy Note 20 smartphone users. In that case, users are forced to pay about $300 to get their phone’s screen replaced as it becomes useless with those green/pink lines.
4 Android updates and the green/pink lines problem are two different things, with the same motive. Samsung wants users to keep their phone longer, thanks to software support, but does it do the same with flagship phones’ hardware, specifically display?
Most consumers say it happened after the latest software update’s installation, so if it’s a case, you should skip updating the software for now. I use the Galaxy S22 Ultra as my primary phone. Seeing the reports of lines issue on recent Samsung phones, I’m also concerned about it.

TSMC will commence 1.6nm semiconductor production in the second half of 2026. The company’s Co-Chief Operating Officer, Y.J. Mii, announced (via NikkeiAsia) in the US that the new A16 chip manufacturing technology will begin production in the second half of 2026.
South Korea’s Samsung Electronics is also working on 1.6nm process tech, called Backside Power Delivery. Taiwanese chipmaker said that 1.6nm is an area where they are competing with Intel, racing to boost the speed of AI semiconductors.
Demand from AI chip companies led TSMC to develop the new A16 chip manufacturing process faster than expected. High NA EUV, the next-generation extreme ultraviolet exposure equipment for drawing ultra-fine circuits, is unlikely to be used.
Samsung previously revealed it plans to mass produce 2nm in 2025 and 1.4nm in 2027, which is similar to TSMC. Meanwhile, Intel could start mass production of the 1.8nm process later this year, with 1.4nm expected to be announced in 2027.
