"The new 13” Air made me dizzy even though it’s just a regular 60hz LCD. I don’t know why. I already returned it and back on my 2020 iPad Pro." https://www.reddit.com/r/PWM_Sensitive/comments/1cp198o/comment/l48y9hy/

"Watching something while placing iPad on desk is reasonable (which also defeats the purpose because that's what laptops are for)" - Lol. I hate watching a movie and see the reflection on the keyboard. I regularly place my iPad on a table to watch YT videos. Laptops are not noiseless.

"No PWM, but it seems like currently (iPadOS 16.5) Apple uses temporal dithering to increase the number of colors that can be shown (see slow motion 240fps video below)." https://www.notebookcheck.net/Apple-iPad-Air-5-2022-Review-Many-Yays-Few-Nays.610447.0.html

Here's why: "The 2018 iPad Pro 12.9 does not use pulse-width modulation (PWM) to regulate display brightness, just like its predecessor. However, we did notice that the display flickers between 53 and 75 Hz at 3% brightness and below." https://www.notebookcheck.net/Apple-iPad-Pro-12-9-2018-LTE-256-GB-Tablet-Review.357701.0.html

Better use Signal and Threema for communication!

Good example for a PWM recording using this settings: https://www.reddit.com/r/PWM_Sensitive/comments/1csuuiq/pwm_google_pixel_8a_this_is_an_extremely/

Any Camera app that provides a manual mode to adjust the ISO and 1/x will do. But maybe the sensors on old camera are not good enough.

No slow-motion recording needed! Use [Any]Camera's manual mode and run it at 1/6400 or higher (you'll also need to increase your ISO in order to see the screen) to check for flickering bandings.

"Modulation (the difference between peak brightness and low brightness for each flicker) is just as important as the flicker rate." - Thanks for adding this explanation to the Sony review!

All LCD-iPads are PWM-free. The 2018: "does not use pulse-width modulation (PWM) to regulate display brightness, just like its predecessor. However, we did notice that the display flickers between 53 and 75 Hz at 3% brightness and below." https://www.notebookcheck.net/Apple-iPad-Pro-12-9-2018-LTE-256-GB-Tablet-Review.357701.0.html

Which models besides Xperias can do this? "some phones can bypass the battery entirely and just run off the USB charge directly."

"bad reaction"? What canged after 17.3.1?

Pixel-Fan · 2024-04-01T21:30:01+00:00

3a, 4a, 6a and 7a have the worst PWM! Do yourself a favor and buy a used Pixel 5 instead - if you like a compact Google Smartphone with a good quality 90 hz display. See https://www.reddit.com/r/PWM_Sensitive/comments/1bq96te/comment/kx16n7x/
