First time in this forum to see if anyone else has this issue? I am planning on returning my 13 and getting an 11 again. I upgraded from the 11 (regular, not pro). Ever since I have had this 13, the scrolling issue driving me insane. When scrolling on an app, everything becomes fuzzy/blurry and seems to stutter. It's intolerable. Also, in general for me the screen of this phone is way too bright even at the lowest setting and it is giving me a headache and major eye strain. when I put the phone down my vision is blurry. I have tried everything - nightshift, true tone, reduce motion, reduce white point while raising brightness etc. I am going to return it today. Anyone else having so much trouble with the screen/display of the 13? I read a little about how this is OLED and my 11 was LCD and that's the issue. Dont know much beyond that but this is intolerable.
Got a tip for us?

I’m having the same issue too but it all started to happen after I updated to iOS 15. Hopefully they fix this in the new update
Really. Can I ask which phone you have? I did a lot of research and it said the cause is the OLED screen. Now I wonder if it’s the iOS?
@pepsters3 You’re experiencing negative effects from the flickering OLED screen. LCD screens don’t flicker.
Here’s a thread talking all about it - you’re not alone

Thank you very much.@pepsters3 You’re experiencing negative effects from the flickering OLED screen. LCD screens don’t flicker.

I rarely get headaches, but I got my iPhone 13 yesterday. About 2 hours later I got a migraine. Since I’ve read this thread, I’m wondering if that’s why I’m having headaches as well. But I’ve used Samsung devices for years and they’ve had OLED screens. I’ve never had any noticeable problems. That I remember.
Same as you, been used note8 s10+ s21u, no anything at all with Samsung Oled until I got 13 Pro Max. Did you return it? I may return it.
I ended up keeping it. The headaches got better after about a week. Everything’s fine now. I did turn the screen down slightly more than usual too.
I got eye surgery so like put a glasses in my eyes, i really hope it may not hurt my eyes. So, yep I have to give up the Carkey Carplay, but just for better visual effect... Bit sad
OMG I thought I was going crazy. Last night I bought an iPhone 13 mini. Now, I am 51 and my eyes are beginning to go a little bit, so some people may say that the phone is too small, but everything looked fuzzy-like when scrolling and when I opened my Gmail for work it was stuttering and lagging like craz. I also felt like the screen was too bright and exactly what the original poster said. I’m pretty upset about this because this is $1000 phone. Time. Etc. I can clearly return it but what the heck. Besides the strain and lagging and I’m not so thrilled about the square sides. This just sucks.
