I use it on my 8+
If I turn it off the display is too bluish, it annoys me and I need to go back to TT.
Got a tip for us?

I just can't stop laughing on this. Though myself an Apple user, these beautiful displays were created by SAMSUNG - "Daddy of Display Industry". i don't know why we fans become so biased and start writing a crap which is not true; so what you are trying to say they Daddy who created these displays, didn't win any award but child won it who received a display from the daddy.
Limit of Biasedness !!!
Yes, you know more than people who actually know stuff, you have "convinced" me...

It's not the same thing, it's you who have drank the god damn "kool aid" (sic).
120hz and oled this year...nope we have to wait for microled
oled it was and still is a bridge between 2 big technologies lcd and the future microled
Samsung manufactures and owns the technology behind iphone x's display through and through.
It was never specified what exactly did apple design regarding iphone x's screen. Probably a contract is responsible for this lack of details and it allows apple fans to spin this info in any form they want.
The S10 is rumored to have a display with more than 600ppi(so probably 4K)
I don't seen any connection between it and the "Super retina" found on the iphone x.
And without Apple asking Samsung to develop this display, we wouldn't be able to buy a device with it. Apple never made their own displays but they have repeatedly pushed the envelope in shipping devices with class-leading screens (original iPhone screen, retina iPhone 4 screen, retina MBP, 5K iMac, wide-gamut phones, tablets, laptops, 120 Hz with ProMotion). And several of those relied on measures that are applied after the screen has been manufactured (individual calibration, timing controller on the 5K iMac, colour management at the OS level, graphic chip and software improvements for 120 Hz).

Apple never manufactured their own displays. Does this mean they shouldn't get credit when they ship devices with display performance that stands out? In particular when some of that performance is due to refinements Apple adds itself (calibration, colour management, 120 Hz graphic ship & software)?

Not at all, if there non-Apple devices with LCDs that are brighter than the iPhone X display than both statements can be true.
The fold under display is possible because of how flexible Samsung's OLED displays are. So I don't see how something like this required design input from Apple.
Other manufacturers already stated that they avoided this solutions because it would increase the cost of the manufacturing not because they couldn't implement it.

Well I see that some people try to give them most of the credit and that is where the problem lies.
They get less horribly wrong than on other OLED screens in other smartphones. Yes, I can see the colour shift when I look for it, but while using the phone in my daily life, I never notice it.
LOL are you serious? I do care about wether the display I spend all day looking at is symmetrical. I couldn't care less about the butt of the phone.
Tablets are clearly not a point of focus for any Android OEM(Google Included).
So they ipads doesn't compete with Android tablets but mainly with 2in1 laptops.

Yes it was.

What about the Note 9?
[doublepost=1526470075][/doublepost]
TSMC's manufacturing process performance is one of the main reasons(if not the main one) the A11 is as fast and efficient as it is.
For example if the A11 would have been manufactured on a 20nm node it would have been way slower and considerably less efficient, not suitable for mobile phones. So a total waste of time.
What relevant OLED technology does Apple have?
[doublepost=1526470495][/doublepost]
I haven't seen any information that would suggest that is more than that.
When has that stopped China?
[doublepost=1526473384][/doublepost]
Admittedly, my reply was intended to be snarky. Now I'm curious why you'd go that route just to get a widescreen aspect ratio. All I can think of off of the top of my head is that it allows you to still see more of the screen (centered) by pushing the on screen controls further to the left and right.
Yep it's got a nice behind, but at the price of that big ol' dent in the forehead. Guess you might call it a butterface.
And who DESIGNS the AMOLED displays for the iPhone X, which is what really counts here (compared to just offering manufacturing plants for the production of these designs)?
(hint: it's not the company you're referring to).
Samsung was in the running as well. But the real point I was originally making, and not addressed by you, should kudos go to TSMC for the design (or Samsung should Apple have selected them for fabrication, or for earlier Ax versions Samsung fabbed) for the devices manufactured?
And of course the answer is no.
Apple has had their own display engineering group since at least 2014, and apparently is now engaged in R&D towards bringing a MicroLED display to market in a future device. Similarly, those displays will not be manufactured by Apple.
You basically implied TSMC has no merits when TSMC does have quite a significant contribution. That is what I addressed.
Also I don't see how designing a silicon SOC and a screen are directly comparable(or the same thing). Maybe you could enlighten me.
To me is amusing the way you use the word design. It basically means what you want it to mean and it's never backed up by any technical detail to make things clear.
2014? Info about this engineering group started to appeared in 2017-2018 when they supposedly started working on some OLED tech.
I wish apple good luck with the MicroLED tech. We already know that Samsung and LG(veteran display manufactures) are quite advanced when it comes to MicroLED tech. Samsung currently at the level of showing different demos.
Not my intent. TSMC had the better roadmap and process they could deliver on. Samsung had the process ready, but was not willing to make the capital expenditure in Apple's timeframe.
The points I was making in post#73 were in reference to to potential reasons Apple picking Samsung (over LG) for displays.
I’d suggest visiting PatentlyApple and looking through their 5+ years of work on OLED. The X definitely has the work Apple has put in on extending the blue pixels lifespan (a long running issue in OLED) amongst other things.
A lot of this is extremely low level (such as the display power hardware) amongst others.
And yet, no one praised TSMC for A chips, ever, but now, when they hit Samsung fans where it hurts - suddenly - it's the factories that matter.
Of course Samsung should be praised for investing into their manufacturing capabilities and for making the best OLED production plants, and of course TSMC should be applauded for their capabilities. But so should the mines that mine metals for these devices, people on the assembly lines that put them together, etc. However, especially in the western world, it's the ideas and the designs that get the most attention, it's the only thing we refer to as "creativity".
