I don’t know what you mean… with the privacy screen protector you say? I don’t know, I don’t have one of those. With the matte screen protector it doesn’t matter the brightness, it blurs a bit the image and decreases the crispness of this gorgeous LCD display.
I have upgraded my iPhone 11 to ios17 and had no eye strain problem. On the other hand I could not use the iPhone X or the 14 pro
You have no strain because the iPhone 11 uses a different display, not because of the OS. iPhone 11 is good; other phones not.
Software drives the hardware, if Apple makes changes at the OS level it can have an effect. Take the Airpod Pro gen 1 for example, Apple continually adjusted the software which had a negative effect on the ANC according to many user reports.
Yes, as the measurements would indicate iPhone 15 Plus is dramatically better than iPhone 15 Pro. I’m staring at the display with minimal headaches, and remarkably negligible-to-no behind-the-eye throbbing, which even iPhone 13 mini was not immune to constantly causing. That being said, I’m skeptical that it doesn’t have the capability for more typical symptoms and/or migraines, but my experience has gotten better since using it as intended with auto-brightness. Locking the display brightness to 75%-100% with RWP at 80-90% when I initially set it up was close to problem-free in short bursts, but not practical or enough of a difference to add the strain of staring at an excessively bright display.
If you use a MacBook Air you'll be staring at an LCD panel. The iPhone 11 also uses a Liquid Retina HD display, which is a type of LCD display not OLED. Same with the 11" iPad Pro. Health-wise, no software is going to make the effect of looking at the LCD worse or better. It's pretty much black and white. If you don't use OLED you won't have any ill effects, if you do use OLED, you may be affected and you maybe be affected greatly.
They must have dialed into the specific frequency that your brain finds imperceptible. Everyone is individual. Most flickering displays, even my friend’s Samsung LED TV with 960Hz PWM, don’t bother me. I’d be curious and it could be useful to know exactly what about it makes it different than the previous generations.
I’m not sure why exactly either, but iPhone 15 Plus has been the best OLED in terms of sensitivity I’ve experienced, even if I’m typing this on my primary iPhone SE. I’ve thought about swapping to another iPhone like the smaller iPhone 15, but the frequencies seem like they could be quite different.
No, I prefer to keep the glass unobstructed for clarity and feeling.
The SE 3 is an outstanding smartphone if you don’t mind the aged design. I’m loving it and I’m even considering getting a second one to store it for the moment that my current SE 3 dies or gets its screen badly scratched.
Software controls the display driver. Software controls the brightness. Software controls every pixel you see. LCD can cause eye fatigue/strain. How would you explain other people's negative reports of eye issues with the MBA 13” M1 & M2, iPhone 8 Plus/XR/11/SE? I suggest we might just have to agree to disagree.
Just curious, has anyone experienced that the 15 Plus is likely to be better tolerated than the regular 15?
I am currently using an iPhone 7 and an iPad 9 without any problems.
