I went to return an item today and looked at a few devices to gauge what I am capable getting should my devices fail anytime soon. the iPad Pro 12.9 really makes me feel terrible. It's extremely noticeable. I then went to the Surface Pro 8 and I created a thread about that earlier. While it felt well, better, I wasn't excited about it. To my surprise, I passed the Galaxy Tab S8 plus and ultra and while they colors are saturated, I was able to stare at the screen without any immediate symptoms. I was and still am shocked. its an AMOLED panel vs OLED if that makes any difference whatsoever. The regular S8 is an LCD I believe. I won't jump to any conclusions just yet, but maybe Samsung is on to something with their color handling, flicker, and/or whatever else it is that causes me harm (with these specific devices). I feel its worth a try for anyone who hasn't viewed them to find them in store and see how you feel. I know it won't help everyone as we all may fit into different categories but thought I'd share.

Clokwork I recently bought the tab a8 2022 version, I have completely replaced my laptop with it, next I will buy the 14 inch tab s8 hopefully it will be just as good as the A8

Update: I bought a Samsung s7 fe, no good returning it some time this week, going to buy the s7 plus or s8 since they use AMOLED displays and my phone currently uses that and I have no issues

Business-Eyes Are you still using the Tab A8 2022 comfortably?

Im using the Samsung galaxy tab s4 amoled with no strain. But Samsung galaxy tab s6 amoled induced strain so I had to swap it.

degen I bought the Tab A8 2022 and I like it, I like it a lot. More to come.

degen yes, i saw you bought it, but yes if I have eye strain from my other computers as soon as I start using the A8 I can feel my eye feeling better. Going to try the s8 next, it has a super AMOLED display

degen I bought one as well after reading this thread. It's not perfect for me but it's usable. Even more so than my phone. Any specific settings or screen protectors that you think contributes?

bz12 I have mine in dark mode and adaptive brightness. Also when I just got it I could only use it for about 3hr since my eyes were already strained but now I use it all day, about 10hrs a day

Business-Eyes I'm using those as well as Eye Comfort Shield always on.

bz12 Not perfect, but usable, is exactly what I have experienced with that tablet.
