iPhone 16 Pro will have a 20% brighter screen, rumor says

10 May 2024
We're not talking peak brightness here, but typical, day-to-day brightness.

            Will it have separate number row on the keyboard or not?
            I am tired of asking this question but they are not tired of not making it.
            What is it? Does the patent belong to Samsung? What is stopping you to make it?

                If % of usable panels was low, then Boe would never be able to meet the orders.
                Look how many chinese midranges are sold from honor, huawei, oppo and vivo.

                Many projects of Samsung Display have been stolen and sold in China over the years , still domestic panels are inferior.

                So lame ..... 😂😂

                  Anti-Reflective glass should be sold as a pre-installed screen protector, not itched glass. Samsung is incentivizing their users not to put a screen protector on their $1000+ phone. Most people will end up installing a screen protector instead.

                  There are matte, anti-reflective & Privacy-oriented screen protectors being sold already. So it makes sense to sell those accessories instead of itching the glass itself.

                    Apple & Google will never give you the ability to change how the brightness slider & Auto brightness algorithm works. They'll keep it a simple toggle.

                      The reason Google, Samsung & Apple are increasing brightness is to make your battery drain faster & give you another reason to upgrade.

                      Keep in mind, they will NEVER give you the ability to alter the Brightness Slider software algorithm in HBM & non HBM mode. They'll keep "Auto-Brightness" a simple toggle the same way it is now for years & years to come.

                      They'll make it prioritize higher brightness. The new phone will choose 800 nits whereas the previous phone in the same lighting condition would prefer 600 nits. (even though both panels support 1000+ nits)

                        You will use half the brightness anyway. Unless you are blind. Even in direct sun.

                                Combined, Boe + TCL + Tiamna could produce panels enough.
                                Apple would easily save $40-45/panel.compared to using korean oled.

                                As an user of tiamna LCD on motorola, I can say it is far worse than LCD from LG and JDi I also used .

                                No surprise Vivo X100 Ultra has Samsung E7 instead of same panel used by X100 Pro.
