Thanks for making this video Atleast companies will know that we consumers are not fools for getting flagship

[@thisfeatureisbad]

My Pixel 6a flickered really crazy, It sometimes even felt like the screen was running at 30 or even just 10 Hz at the lowest brightness in a complete darkness. The flicker was noticeable while shaking the phone and paying attention only to the display. For the ambient display, once the only red pixels turn on, the flicker is just noticeable with a bare eye. I know the a-series is supposed to be a mid-range and more budget friendly, but Google could do better with the OLED panel.

if you use lcd display along side with amoled display then the amoled display will look much better than lcd any day. But if you tweak the custom colour settings like contrast, brightness, saturation and backlight properly, then the lcd display will look kinda identical to a budget amoled screen

My settings is Reduce White Point on 87% for indoors(usually 40-100% brightness), true tone on and dark theme. For outdoors RWP is off. Maybe it’s helps for someone. P.S.

[@PeterB12345]

Well the blue light issue can be addressed with screen filter apps, or if that doesn't work, you can get a pair of glasses with the special FL-41 coating. This will filter out the wavelengths of blue light that have been found to be harsh to the eyes. Theraspecs makes nice FL-41 prescription lenses. They do look a bit pink though, so you might not want to wear them at all times.
