Is it just mine or does anyone else have an issue with the screen on the S25 Ultra and keeping it clean? I have had smartphones for as long as they have existed and I have never had an issue like this. Fingerprint smudges are one thing but lint, dirt, any kind of moisture that dries on it leaves water marks. I find myself constantly having to wipe it down with a lint free cloth made for these screens. It might be the first time that I wear out the cloth before getting rid of this phone. As it is right now I can't wait to trade this in a be rid of it! Maybe it's the antireflective coating or some other treatment but it's terrible. I certainly hope this is not how all screens are going to be going forward.

No. I've never used one but I might if it would fix this issue.

The antireflective coating on the S25 Ultra's screen is known to wear off with use. That's likely what is causing the "dirty" appearance. A screen protector will definitely help, but will negate the antireflective effect unless you specifically get one that doesn't.

EDIT - Here's the original Samsung screen protector:
