I just found these pictures in the dead pixel thread here on reddit:
Look at the third picture. That’s a BOE panel and the mura effect is clearly visible. My SD OLED with a Samsung panel looks just like this. Can you please please take a few pictures of both your units displaying the desktop or the home menu and upload them?
He’s not talking about bright scenes. That’s not a problem for the Samsung panel. Here’s an easy way to check the uniformity of your OLED panel on dark colors:

Skip to 15-15-15 and watch from there on.
Some degree of mura on dark colors seems to be normal for OLED panels. I have yet to see an OLED panel completely free of it (tested multiple LG OLED TVs, Pixel 8 Pro, Pixel 7 Pro, iPhone 15, iPhone 14, Galaxy Tab S8 Ultra, Galaxy Fold 4, Switch OLED and many more devices…).
It’s interesting that the BOE panel is reported to have less/no mura. Makes me even more pissed that there is no LE in Europe. Anyone received a normal SD OLED with a BOE panel? Are there any out there?
Same issue here. I found out that it seems to be related to the GPU clock. Try increasing the GPU clock manually while being on the home screen. The static should increase in volume and frequency as you go up with the GPU clock. I hope that it’s just a software thing…
Manually force the GPU to 1600mhz on the home menu and use some sensitive headphones and you’ll hear it easily.
