Light/version problem

anyone

Привет ) а куда еще податься ))

So this is my story in brief.

I am absolutely not light sensitive. I have never been.

First time in my life I faced severe eyestrain after I upgraded my phone this spring to Samsung Note 10 lite. I tried software to reduce pwm, tried using it with 100% brightness and sold it after three weeks. It took another three weeks for me to recover.

This september I made second attempt to upgrade, checked everything that was present in the malls in the price range starting from $270 and found out that my eyes react with immediate severe pain to every single phone.

I was shocked, purchased S20 FE and started to research and test.

I cant help you with the monitor problems because:

1. My eyes do not react badly on any other of my tech, unless I was usIng a dangerous phone several days before
2. I generaly use noteboks, last one by year was 2017 MPB
3. I lIterally see on my retIna the result of phone usage, It temporarily damages photoreceptors of retIna, so that Is the sole reason of my temporary lIght sensitivity

I wonder how it manages to damage my retina without my brain registering this light, though I percieve it as bright nonetheless.

Right now I am writing from my tablet and nothing hurts, and 20 minutes ago I looked at my phone and felt eyestrain. I am light sensitive right now, led lights and light bulbs are a problem after phone usage, but my old tech is not.

What connects me to this forum is that something, and I blame this invisible light (that damages my retina up to red objects appearing neon orange next morning and light objects staying on retina for a long time, while pupils remain tiny and can't be blamed for this) also breaks my perfect vergence in mere seconds. I get impossible pain like not only eye muscles but even joints are breaking and inability to look far. This is something I never faced.

Nope! My eyes completely recovered after it.

My pain doesnt start immediately, when my eyes are ok it takes 20 minutes to 1 day to feel any symptoms. After that time my vision cant longer take the damage. Next time I look at the phone it takes few seconds, even if I look 1 minute per day.

I used samsung amoleds from the beginning. More than 10 years. You might check my 4pda post for much more details. My eyes literally recovered with another samsung amoled screen in constant usage.

Probably you never seen such a case because you monitor this forum and ixbt monitors thread, if my guess is correct.

You might want to check 4pda where a lot of people have problems with phones. The minority of them are like me and the majority have smaller problems which they attribute to amoled pwm, but no one actually checks pwm influence. (They are in the IPS vs AMOLED thread)

So things often go like this: a person purchases amoled phone and gets eyestrain. This person learns about pwm, complaints about it and purchases ips phone. This person gets eyestrain with ips display, complaints about it and gets responses like: this is a bad ips, find a good one; this is a wrong ips, find a good one; this is a bad matrix and this very model has another good matrix etc. The person tries 3-4 phones and eventually settles on something.

I suppose we all react on something in common, you, me, other people here and people on 4pda.

But:

• the intensity of some light characteristic
• and our individual sensitivity to it
• and our ability to compensate the breaking vergence
  are different.

Yep and those people have no complaints about monitors but new phones are a disaster for them.

I believe some might be affected by pwm but not everyone, based on all the evidence.

Dear person who split the threads,

could you rename it into Light/version problem?

Thank you
