Hello, everyone!
I've recently figured out I must be PWM sensitive but I am kinda lost as to the reason behind my sensitivity and would like some advice.
I've had Samsung S10+ for 2 years and it never gave me issues. I get some light pain/discomfort in my eyes if I use the phone in bed at night but I always thought it was cause of tiredness and low ambient light. It never gave me headaches or anything.
Recently I bought iPhone 13 Pro Max and, boy, did I understand I was PWM sensitive in just few days. Just after 2-3 minutes of looking at it during the day I feel like after reading S10+ at low brightness at night for an hour or two. But worst of all - it gives me real strong headaches and pressure in my ears like in an airplane.
But here is the issue - according to reviews and tests S10+ has worse PWM than iPhone 13 Pro Max. I started reading, and apparently S10+ has awful PWM. So, why can I tolerate it but not the iPhone?
To make matters worse - my mother has normal iPhone 13 (not Pro Max) and it also doesn't give me headaches. At least not that fast. And her previous phone S8 also didn't give me any problems. Neither did A52. And all of them supposedly have worse case of PWM.
Is there any explanation for this? Why specifically iPhone 13 Pro Max? Is it really PWM sensitivity or perhaps something else? And my biggest worry - will I have problems with S22 Ultra if I buy it?
