  • Complaints are popping up online that the Galaxy S24 Ultra has washed-out colors on the display.
  • The problem appears to be software-based, as the “Vivid” and “Natural” profiles exhibit few differences.
  • Android Authority contacted Samsung for an explanation but didn’t receive one.

For years now, Samsung phones have had multiple color profiles. The “Natural” profile allows you to see colors as true to life as possible, while the “Vivid” profile provides more saturation to create “pushed” colors that are beautiful but unrealistic.

The Galaxy S24 Ultra, though, appears to have a problem regarding displayed color tones. Folks who have gotten their devices earlier than expected are hitting Reddit to talk about “washed-out” colors.
