Ok.Thank you.I send it back to Samsung for them to look at it. So I hope they don't tell me I need to pay $150.00 to replace it cause they sound like they had no idea what i was describing.

I DID A RMA WARRANTY WITH ATT, and they said for me to prove the dot, but i didnt and when they got it back, they saw it. IF IN FACT ITS A BLACK DOT LEFT BOTTOM CORNER ON WHITE BACKGROUND, ITS DEFINITELY DEAD PIXEL AND WILL SPREAD. SAMSUNG WILL SEE IT TOO AND WILL EXCHANGE. KEEP IN MIND THEY GIVE CERTIFIED AS NEW REPLACEMENTS.

its a year warranty on it, as long as it came defective. it took me a month to notice mine. also, expect to ship it to samsung prepaid usps or fedex, they pay. and it will be gone for 3 weeks to 14 days round trip.

I NEVER GOT A CLEAR PICTURE BECAUSE OF FLASH ON PIC WAS TAKEN.

And yes they paid for it to send out to them. I took it to T-Mobile and they say it's in the phone and then had to call Samsung. I went to bed woke up and it appears. Sucks.....

my s8 plus black when front camera view is obstructed. It is so annoying trying to operate my phone while trying to get around it. Does it every single time and wont go back to regular screen until I move my hand out of view. The only solution I have found is to completely block it with something by putting it directly on the screen and blocking view 100%. Anyone heard of this happening/know how to fix it?

One good thing that came out of this problem is I have discovered yet another use of duct tape, to cover the camera lens! The world would be a scary place without duct tape! And WD-40! As much as I love it I really don't like have to have a piece duct tape hanging off my $1000 phone

it sounds like a hardware issue.....factory reset it and see. if it is still happening then its hardware and needs fixing.
