    Disney Plus and Filmmaker Mode?

    While I can get Dolby Vision with Disney Plus on my Apple TV 4K, I’ve noticed that it doesn’t give me the option for filmmaker mode. Maybe this picture setting is reserved for purchased or rented movies, for example, as opposed to streaming content?

    Would My Apple TV 4K and LG CX OLED TV Benefit from an HDMI 2.1 Cable?

    I’m currently using an HDMI 2.0 cable. Would I benefit by upgrading to an HDMI 2.1 cable? As far as future proofing goes, I wonder if the next Apple TV hardware will take advantage of the HDMI 2.1 technology.

    iPhone 12 IPhone 12 OLED - black smearing

    I wrote a post already on this, but I didn’t know how to call the issue. I have since learnt it’s called OLED smearing. I understand that all OLED screens do it a bit, but I do not know if my screen is worse than others, from this point of view. Can you test if the same happens on your OLED...

    iPhone 12 iPhone 12 OLED Quality

    Has anyone seen any reviews about the OLED screen quality of the iPhone 12 vs 12 Pro? The rumor has been that BOE would be supplying the OLED's for the iPhone 12 and Samsung for the 12 Pro. Initially BOE's quality didn't meet Apples standards, but it sounds like they got the go ahead for the 12.

    Other This is why I will not buy iPhone 12: OLED = PWM

    I just hate how Apple is not understanding How serious is the argument here. They still use OLED displays that use PWM to modulate brigtness, and so they flicker! 30/40% OLED Smartphone Owner's are claiming infact, eyestrain, headhace, nausea, dizziness, motion sickness, that is mainly caused by...

    Other Why some of us are worried about an all OLED iPhone lineup.

    So you may have come across the 3 letters PWM among these various forums when people discuss the OLED iPhones and the rumour that the 12 series will all be OLED based. Some of you wonder why some of us make a big deal of it because you can’t see it or it doesn’t effect you, well I have a video...

    Have someone made the switch because off eye strain?

    Had terrible eye Strain on XS. Bought the 11 because of the LCD, the strain wasn’t as bad as with the XS, but there was also pain in my eyes and also felt a bit nausea when I used it. Also I didnt like the design with the notch und the heavy and plump feeling of the device. So I gave it back and...

    iPhone SE (2016) iPhone SE.. X ? What's a match for the Samsung 10e ?

    I still have my trusted iPhone 6S (now with new battery), but the old LCD technology really starts to annoy me, especially since all my friends already have OLED phones. The screen seems so much better for reading. Also, I'm really not eager to spend € 1500 (usd 1650) on a bulkier iPhone 11 Pro...

    iPhone 11 Pro My 11 Pro Max's Screen is Dimmer and Greener Than My XS Max?!

    Been using the 11 Pro Max for a day now, and compared a few times, and found the white balance to be quite off. Both with and without True Tone. Even weirder is that it is definitely not as bright as my XS Max. There's less contrast, and less shadow detail (possibly as a result of lower...

    Hi, whoever gets his new iPhone 11 Pro first... Could you be so kind and check how the new phones handle dimming the OLED display? I would love to buy one of the new phones but I tested the X and the XS and both gave me headaches. Thanks

    I know it was always there, but didn't thought that it's getting so much worse with dark mode enabled. Some people say they don't really notice smearing when scrolling. So I wanna ask you: Whats your experience with Dark mode and OLED smearing on iOS 13?

    iPhone X iPhoneX Screen Burn-in?

    Phone is over a year old now and battery at 97% viability. I generally keep my phone in smart invert for better battery life (yes I realize it's not a giant difference maker but I find the screen easier to read this way). I generally always have my phone set to: settings -> general ->...
