Hi @glrboygrlboy, @Ydiss, and sorry for the late reply.

Thanks for all that information, @Ydiss!

Hi everyone,

I have merged some threads into one, as you all were reporting the same issue.

I'd like to ask you to try to change the resolution from your device's Display settings:  

Device Settings > Display > Screen Resolution > Set to WQHD+ and apply > Restart the device

If that doesn't work, could you try changing the mode using Samsung's Game Tuner app? 

Download Game Tuner tool > Go to Modes tab > Set mode to Maximum Quality

 

Thank you for your reports, please, let us know if these workarounds are helpful for you 🙂
