S26 Ultra/Oleophobic coating on display

[Robin621k]

I hope for the S26U Samsung finally figures out the Oleophobic coating on the display. When I first got the S24U with the Corning Gorilla Armor glass anti-reflective screen, I was super excited, it was amazing. I was never a screen protector user, after only 2 months the Oleophobic coating wore off in the areas that you touch most frequently with awful greasy smudges that were very hard to clean, the more you cleaned your screen the worse it would get, you couldn't just use a microfiber cloth to clean it. This forced me to get a screen protector. Trying to find the perfect screen protector that would still have the anti-reflective properties was an expensive trial and error. The criteria was it had to be glass, no film for me. Yes, I finally found one that wasn't clear glass.

Move on to the S25U, still the same, Oleophobic coating wearing off after just a couple of months, again having to solve the problem with a screen protector.

I am now hoping for 3 times the charm for the S26U!

I just learned something new.

I've always used a screen protector so i didn't know this was a thing that can happen .

Interesting.

I've always used screen protectors, too. But the anti-reflective coating issue shouldn't force people to use them if they don't want to. Samsung needs to figure this out yesterday.

Yes, they do!
