I have been noticing significant motion smearing on my S21 Ultra. I did a side by side comparison to a OP7tpro to make sure that it was not my eyes playing tricks on me.

I've been given an S21 Ultra, but it seems to be a demonstration unit, so there's no Google Play Store access, which means I can only load apps onto it that are found in the Galaxy Store. I've tried to side load the Google Play Store APK, but once it's installed, it won't open. Instead it says...
