Minu, 15 Feb 2025If it's "dirt cheap", then it's either ... moreMoto G75 is much more powerful. Snapdragon 6 Gen 3 has 4A78 and 4A55, same as 7S Gen 2. You can't say is a rebrand of 695, that's the 6 S Gen 3, the S means everything 😎

    What happened to the review of G Power 2025?

      JimmyTheGreatest, 14 Feb 2025"Sensitive on Pwm dimming and color levels of AMOLED s... moreYes. Sensitivity to PWM dimming is a known medical condition. It does produce headaches in sensitive individuals though I don't think colour actually produces negative effects.

QLED (quantum dot) isn't cheap, and that's why Nokia's X series phones are expensive. Those are viable with better specifications compared to the G Power 2025 (SD480/695 has a better architecture with more powerful cores), and the Moto G75 uses a rebrand of the same chipset while being expensive due to being a recent device. And the Nokias aren't that dated, if you take into account that they unlock bootloaders after the update period ends with Android 14 for the X10/20/XR20 and Android 15 for the Nokia XR21, similar to their older phones.

              Minu, 15 Feb 2025In my opinion, there should be both AMOLED and LCD options ... moreYes, both variants should exist. LCD is dirty cheap my friend. All manufacturers use LCD just in their budget phones, so it is rly hard to find phone with good specs and with LCD screen. Newest worth to mention is Motorola g75.

                Said this numerous times this is not a Moto Power battery is too small.

                      jiyen235, 14 Feb 2025im curious, would people rather have a 120 hz LCD or a 60 h... morePart of that is AMOLEDs being much cheaper to manufacture nowadays, at least since the pandemic. LCDs on the contrary, are expensive to produce due to not having an oversupply, as well as most display manufacturers shifting towards AMOLED production. This is the same reason why TCL's NXTPAPER devices are atrociously expensive, while having barbones specifications.

                      If this had an AMOLED display, this would cost less than $150. The only exception is Samsung/Wingtech, where they have an oversupply of dated PLS TFT displays since 2019, which is still in use across low end phones.

                      I personally prefer AMOLEDs, but my phone uses a QLED (Quantum dot IPS LCD) so it's the perfect middle ground for those who like AMOLED colors but are sensitive to/dislike PWM flickering in OLEDs.

                      And those who hate AMOLEDs can look for Nokia's X series devices with similar or better specifications. They may allow bootloader unlocking, once they discontinue updates.

                      Those who hate AMOLEDs have many options available in the market, it's just that they don't care to seek for options instead of bashing upon AMOLED-based devices.

                        PureOS, 15 Feb 2025Great for u men, I'm glad that u find proper phone. I ... moreIn my opinion, there should be both AMOLED and LCD options instead of using only AMOLEDs in phones.

                        But let's not forget how expensive it is for brands in the long term. Take Nokia's X series phones for example. Those were Quantum dot IPS-based (QLED) and rather expensive at launch because of their bill of materials and scarcity of decent LCDs due to display manufacturers quitting the smartphone market, hence they didn't sell like hot cakes. Lenovo and Xiaomi are larger in comparison, so they won't have a problem with providing LCD-based options.

                        Since this phone is far more expensive compared to the AMOLED equivalents with similar or better specifications, it's pointless to bash this phone for its high price.

                          JimmyTheGreatest, 14 Feb 2025"Sensitive on Pwm dimming and color levels of AMOLED s... moreNo. I tried to check medical terminology but I didn't had success. Many people doesn't even know what Pwm dimming is, and probably many doctors to. I can only give u advice how to resolve this problem - Get phone with LCD screen, put reading mode, and if u can get glasses with blue light protection ( they are cheap ). Your eyes will be relaxed. I couldn't looked at Samsung AMOLED more than 30 min without eyes strain. Now, basically I can use phone whole day without problems.

                            Acorns, 14 Feb 2025Even before I'd ever heard about pwm dimming I bought ... moreGreat for u men, I'm glad that u find proper phone. I also looked g75, but in the end I got different phone. Your eyes are okey, Pwm technology is something terrible. U will se how many people will have eyes problem in coming years cause of that.

                              PureOS, 14 Feb 2025Go and search deeply about this cause u don't have eno... moreEven before I'd ever heard about pwm dimming I bought a Moto x phone with an amoled screen after coming from an original Moto g phone with an LCD screen and immediately started feeling eye strain and headaches after using it. I did love the phone and put up with it for a long time till I saw the Poco X3 NFC with LCD screen for a crazy price. The eye strain stopped immediately when I started using it and I replaced it with the X3 pro version of phone again with LCD screen which recently died so I've replaced it with a Moto g75 again with an LCD screen. The screen along with it's mil grade protection and water resistance swayed me as I'm very clumsy and the Qualcomm 6gen3 chip is enough for my needs. I'm so glad there are still phones that use LCD screens as oled definitely strains my eyes. I don't much care if it's a medical condition or not but anyone who suffers with it will understand. I absolutely love the phone by the way if anyone on the fence about buying one

                                Is the above mentioned a medical terminology?

It's pointless to discuss abut that with u. Plus, your altitude is no no for me. P/S, some amoled can go from Pwm to DC dimming, but not all of them, and that usually above 70% screen brightness. Use that level in 💯 dark, u will loose your eyes in 1 month. Sorry Cause 95 of 100 devices are not enough for u. The rest of us should be blind by your logic. People with friends like u doesn't need enemies. Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against u, but u need to improve your communication a lot.

                                      JimmyTheGreatest, 14 Feb 2025May I ask what the medical term is for your eye condition? ... moreSensitive on Pwm dimming and color levels of AMOLED screen. It is impossible to put something on screen to resolve this. Only way is to use LCD screen 🫤

                                        jiyen235, 14 Feb 2025but pwm dimming only happens in low brightness. Above a cer... moreMen, don't trying be smart. I see that u think that u have big knowledge, but u are totally wrong here. Pwm dimming doesn't only work on low brightens, it can work on all levels. On some phones can go from Pwm do DC dimming on higher brightness, but not on all of them. Try to look at 80-90% brightness level in complete dark to avoid Pwm, u will go blind. Ofc that I used oled, and I switched to LCD cause of that. So 10% of us with that problem should go blind, 95 of 100 launched phones is not enough for u? Puting something on me with that narcis altitude is very bad move. I see on other dialogues how u communicate, believe me, u are not that smart.
