From the little research I've been able to do, it appears that latest revisons of AMOLED screens use PWM. :(
I was thinking of getting a phone with a Super AMOLED (better contrast - truer colours) screen until I saw that.
Hi Everyone,
Firstly, to whomever the moderator of this forum is, can we make this a Sticky topic?
If you can confirm that your phone doesn't use PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) to control the dimming of the backlight, please post its details in this thread.
Thanks, MTB.

Hi Stefan,
Given that viewing angles on a TN screen are not that good it IS pretty constant I think. The thing is, though, that I will be wanting to look at it from straight on.

For convenience (i.e. no need to make a trip to a specialist store), bicycle touring in the middle of nowhere (being able to carry 1 or more spare batteries could be a life saver) and functionality (install a higher performance battery), I would definitely want the battery to be User Replaceable.
The scenario, I'm trying to determine is feasible, is as follows.
I'm located in Peru where the power can be cut without warning and data quotas, for a Mobile Phone account, are NOT generous. It would be significantly cheaper to get a USB Stick Modem which has a much higher data quota.

No.
I'm talking about connecting a USB Stick Modem to the phone.
How much does it increase the use of the battery when the phone is not connected to a power source.

Thanks,
Hi Folks,
For those of you who have a Note 2, I would like to know if it has PWM Flicker (i.e. uses Pulse Width Modulation to control the backlight)?
Thank you,
Hi Everyone,
Please post the Brand and Model Number of your Laptop or Notebook if its Display Panel does not use PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) to control the dimming of the backlight.
For those of you not familiar with PWM and the problems it can cause, please read the following article...
That's great to hear.
Maybe the companies are noticing that PWM can cause problems.
Do you notice any screen door effect?
Post up some photos when you can please.
Thanks,
