Since the update, on the main screen...

Screen wont turn on at times, but if I leave it alone for a few minutes, it comes alive.  Other times when it turns on, it immediately goes into a blue jumbled pixel pattern.  Sometimes while scrolling in an app, the screen will also go into the blue pattern.  Sometimes, when in this blue pattern, if I close it and open it slowly the screen comes back.

I've had to return my first 2 z flips because of dead screen issue,s but before I head back to Best Buy, I thought I'd ask here, just in case it was the result of the update and there's a fix coming.
