“We are aware that when customers play Youtube or unlock their devices with their fingerprints, the number of Galaxy S22 Ultra devices that show pixelated lines on the display is limited.
This issue can rarely occur if the user sets the device resolution to WQHD and the screen mode to natural mode.
We are already working on a patch for the Galaxy S22 Ultra and will soon release a software update to address this issue.
Until then, we recommend changing the screen mode of your device to Vivid and the resolution to FHD +.
Also, keep your device up to date with the latest software. “
