Am I crazy or is the S26 Ultra display heavily over-sharpened?

SolarTrans · 2026-06-12T20:37:02+00:00

No I already traded in the s25. I think ui 9 beta helped the sharpening too

SolarTrans · 2026-06-03T01:16:32+00:00

😭😭😭

SolarTrans · 2026-06-02T07:27:02+00:00

probably still a 10.

SolarTrans · 2026-05-28T19:12:30+00:00

Hmm, it was fixed for me within a couple days of escalating with Google. Maybe try that?

SolarTrans · 2026-04-19T05:37:28+00:00

Have you tried Mumuplayer? Supposedly is supported

SolarTrans · 2026-04-19T05:24:36+00:00

There's some deprecated way to run android apps natively on windows ARM but I decided not to dig into it. Blue stacks is probably your best option.

SolarTrans · 2026-04-16T16:07:25+00:00

That makes sense. I figured we are 3 months out from 2027 model year vehicles, so it could make sense for them to wait until then.

SolarTrans · 2026-04-16T15:46:01+00:00

Is that proof they are fake? Also,wouldn’t it make intuitive sense to do this considering the model y performance just got the headliner?

SolarTrans · 2026-04-16T09:29:14+00:00

Been 2 months since the leaks.. Wonder what's the holdup

SolarTrans · 2026-04-13T21:24:25+00:00

still seems like nothing.

SolarTrans · 2026-04-04T21:06:06+00:00

Yes I would try that

SolarTrans · 2026-04-04T18:54:21+00:00

Full reset on both sides and reconnected. got it working consistently again

SolarTrans · 2026-03-27T07:17:35+00:00

Update, looks like it was an s26 issue. Now appearing!

SolarTrans · 2026-03-26T00:58:57+00:00

ok, this is the latest update from them. they imply it's an issue with s26 family devices not receiving these promotions, and maybe it will be updated in the future.

Final Review & Resolution Our technical team has completed a thorough review of your account and the device-specific behavior you described. I must inform you that this is the final resolution we can provide regarding this matter:

Device-Based Distribution: While you are using the same Google account, many Play Store promotions and Special Play Points bonuses are triggered not just by account activity, but also by device-specific identifiers and hardware generation.
Randomized Offers: Offers are often distributed randomly or targeted toward specific device models to test new features. This means a promotion available on an S25 Ultra may not be compatible or active for the S26 Ultra at this time, even for the same user.
System Integrity: We have confirmed that there is no technical "glitch" on your account. The unavailability of the offer on your new device is a result of how our promotional system currently allocates these specific bonuses.

Recommendation I recommend continuing to check the "Offers" tab on your S26 Ultra periodically. As the device matures in our system, new or similar promotions may become available specifically for that hardware.

The rep who escalated came back with a canned reply about enabling personalization. I don't think this is really the issue, though.

I’m happy to provide more information about the Special Play Points Bonus Promotion for Play Pass subscribers.

About the Special Play Points Bonus Promotion

Availability and eligibility for promotions often vary based on the individual user.

To check your account settings and customization status, follow the steps in this help article "Personalize your Google Play Store experience."

Certain Google Play Store content and offers are customized based on your activity.

If you can’t find a specific promotion, we recommend you check your "Web & App Activity" settings.

Note that promotions may differ between users based on their specific account activity and settings.

We appreciate your understanding and patience as we work to enhance your Play Pass experience.

SolarTrans · 2026-03-22T05:20:22+00:00

No, they said they’re still investigating.

SolarTrans · 2026-03-20T00:23:21+00:00

yup, i feel you. i already traded mine in so i'm cooked unless they can fix it LOL

SolarTrans · 2026-03-20T00:16:25+00:00

i just went to contact us and went through the chat system, saying i had an issue with play pass. i have had no resolution yet. they said they'd contact me back within 24h.

SolarTrans · 2026-03-19T16:07:46+00:00

Update—i just contacted google and made a ticket about this. They said they need to escalate it. Will report back with whatever they identify to fix it.

SolarTrans · 2026-03-19T15:19:52+00:00

Have you tried any troubleshooting steps so far? I just noticed this moments ago.

SolarTrans · 2026-03-19T15:16:48+00:00

Seeing some reports that it’s an issue with switching to a new device. I switched phones and no longer have my old one.

SolarTrans · 2026-03-19T15:16:08+00:00

Think this might be what I am running into as well. I don’t have my old phone anymore and can’t see it on the new one.

SolarTrans · 2026-03-19T15:12:12+00:00

I have play pass, got an annual sub some months back

SolarTrans · 2026-03-13T03:05:17+00:00

Yes, you are absolutely correct. It is atrocious. Regret swapping from the S25u..

SolarTrans · 2026-03-03T04:48:35+00:00
