Remember how the home screen becomes a lot of lines that amount to the navigation bar, the faint outline of your phone’s screen? Or it could just be an individual matter as according to everyone this is a normal screen burn-in, which is inherent in OLED displays. However, nowadays, these issues are no more as Samsung has proven that it has solved them. With the latest One UI 6.1 update that is now rolling out, the device has added a stronger mechanism to prevent this complex problem.
UI 6.1 again brings back the pixel shift feature, this time the elements in the shot simply rotate left and right every two minutes. This prevents each pixel from being illuminated by the same pixel, which would otherwise lead to burn-in – which is the main cause of the problem. Small techniques like this may not mean anything, but they can make a notable and positive difference in the lifespan of a display.
Samsung has faced severe backlash from users for removing the pixel shift feature in previous One UI updates; This has led to the creation of many devices that are quite unsafe. However, responding to user demands, Samsung has brought back its UI in One UI 6.1. As of now, the update is rolling out as part of the latest Galaxy S24 series and older flagships and tablets like the S23 FE and Tab S9 series. Although this ADAS feature is already available in exclusive models, it may soon make its way to midline models.
Being one step closer to the existential details of this software, the S24’s One UI 6.1 has many exciting features, but some have to be left out. Interestingly, the S24 offers a nice wallpaper that is set randomly based on the weather and stylish prank wallpapers. Additionally, it is exclusively available only on the S24. Don’t worry, even older models have the privilege of AI-powered generative wallpapers with lots of opportunities for customization.
Therefore, Samsung Galaxy device users should constantly check for any signs of the One UI 6.1 update. The television set not only introduces attractive new values but also aims to make your screen safe from infused burn-in. This will make your viewing sessions crystal clear and more enjoyable for longer periods.
