The new firmware updates the settings of the color balance display on both the flagship devices, which probably should be a fix to the red tint issue. Another major change brought about by the update is the changed timing for pressing the Bixby button key.
The update also brings fix for the Data Quality Assessment (DQA) error pop-up which needed to force closed as well as fix for 5G Access Point (AP) Wi-Fi compatibility issue.
