Common Galaxy S24 issues we check at inspection

  • Screen burn-in on Dynamic AMOLED 2X display. Ghost images from status bar icons, navigation gestures, or keyboard impressions visible on the OLED panel after prolonged static image display.
  • Battery degradation. The 4000mAh battery capacity diminishes over time, leading to reduced screen-on time and requiring more frequent charging. Often listed as 'holds a charge' but with significantly reduced capacity.
  • Cosmetic damage to Gorilla Glass Victus 2. Scratches and micro-abrasions on the front and back glass, especially from keys or abrasive surfaces. Deeper chips or cracks are more significant.
  • Aluminum frame dents/scratches. The aluminum frame is prone to dings and scratches from drops or impacts, particularly on the corners.
  • Charging port issues. Lint or debris accumulation in the USB-C port can cause intermittent charging or data transfer problems. Port wear or damage is also possible.
  • Camera lens scratches. Scratches on the individual camera lenses can affect photo quality, causing glare or blur.
