iPhone X Does anyone prefer a great LCD screen over OLED?

[The-Real-Deal82]

This is all over the place as it seems there are about an equal number of pros and cons in both sides.

I’m sure there is but I’m in the camp where I couldn’t care less whether my iPhone has an LCD screen or an OLED. The LCD is good enough in my opinion for a phone and this means I don’t have to worry about this aspect when choosing a phone. I’m hoping the XR variant keeps LCD for the next few years as it’ll be a contributing factor in keeping the price down.

I fail to understand why we need absolute blacks on a phone screen. If I want to really enjoy a movie I want to use a bigger screen and a good sound system. That seems to be the number one thing people raise OLED to the skies for.

OLED’s can be color accurate, but they drift way more over time (towards yellow) so unless regularly calibrated they are also less color accurate than a good LCD. I just don’t get the hype.

The good thing is that we still have a choise, but what worries me is the runors that all phones are going OLED. I really hope Apple manages to solve the PWM issue, because if anyone can it’s Apple with their display R&D resources. Whether or not they are motivated is a different story though. And now there’s talk that iPads and Macs are going OLED...

I wouldn’t care either if using OLED’s didn’t give me constant migraines. Manufacturers don’t seem to care about that however.
