Display issues like this have been plaguing Samsung devices for at least four years now. It is high time for the company to take real accountability and address these recurring quality control defects.

Wouldn't this issue be covered under the warranty as a defect?

It should be covered by warranty, but Samsung’s quality control is consistently poor. Every year, the first batch of devices suffers from these same issues. I’m glad I only buy the Fold series instead of the S line.

Because the Folds don’t have quality control problems as well?

I'm pretty sure the Fold series actually has better quality control, though they sell fewer units. Given that it's their top-tier, most expensive device, I would expect better quality control, but I have never personally encountered this specific display tint issue on the Fold series.

Keeping it at knees length when using it has never given me eyestrain. Watching a movie with it laying it flat like a tele and radio has its benefits you fall asleep quickly. Posture has always been the key to enjoying these phones. Concerning the red tint imagine when you miss a contract payment or skip town without paying the full price it just figures out your location and downgrades your brand remotely to how much you actually paid. Now that would be much needed justice for retailers.

Or maybe it's a clever way to identify a stolen, duplicate account holding or factory lifted device.

It would but Samsung asked users to send their phones to be recalibrated so it could be a software issue trying to improve the privacy feature but failed.

This is actually a hardware design defect where screen display is weak against UV (sunlight) due to S26 ultra not having a polarizer layer on their display. So it’s a permanent hardware issue not a manufacturing or software issue.
