Samsung has acknowledged the problem and has already rolled out a software update to fix it. The update has been released in Korea and will soon be available globally.

Users have reported seeing unnatural stripes in photos, especially in Night Mode shots. The fix addresses the issue of horizontal and vertical lines appearing in the background during dusk or dawn.
