Dark Stripe on newly bought Samsung TV
Hello, I just recently bought a Samsung 55-Inch Class QLED Q8F 4K UHD Smart TV (2025 Model), and everything was working fantastically for a few weeks. Of course it was only after my return window that this thing popped up. I was sure to be very careful with it especially after mounting it on the wall. I’m not sure how it happened. I’ve tried my best to ignore it, but it’s really starting to bother me now. It’s hardly noticeable when watching movies, YT, and playing on my PS5. But it’s been really prevalent when I’m playing on my new Switch 2. I have tried doing a cold restart and checking for any sort of firmware or software updates but nothing helped. Even went onto Samsung’s website and that wasn’t helpful either. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, even if it’s just to buy a new Tv. Thanks in advance!
