          Lpddr4x is 2133mhz and lpddr5 go to 3200mhz roughly 16GBps vs 25GBps, roughly thats 64% more bandwidth.

              I know. But then again, I mentioned peak brightness of both the technology. And since AMOLEDs have much higher peak brightness, even on an average, they are operated at a higher brightness.

              This does make the health claims of that guy true and relevant.

                The mere fact that you came down from arguing facts to telling how "it is good if it sells" and personal attacks ("cause u are lost case"), is more than enough for this discussion.

                  But does scientific research papers count?

                          Plus, I seriously doubt any OEM is willing to pay more for UFS 3.1 and LPDDR5 if they're using this cheap low end chipset in the first place. They're probably doing what Xiaomi did here and stay in UFS 2.2 and LPDDR4 to save more money.

                              SShreyas, 07 Sep 2023"One thing is tolerating someone opinion, and other to... moreYour "cry about it" words show how u are intolerant, not me. Maybe manufacturer's will lessen u and will implement 400 nits screen, probably if they decide to shrink profit by 50%. Your perspective is completely wrong, and nothing can help there, cause u are lost case.

                                SShreyas, 07 Sep 2023"One thing is tolerating someone opinion, and other to... moreJust one thing about 1000 nits, its not meant to be used like that in dark room all the time.

                                1. It help to increase screen visibility when you use your phone outdoor

                                2. It help displaying hdr content where only part of the screen will reach 1000 nits.

                                Thats why most phones to get over 1000 nits your phone has to be in Auto mode.

                                    Exactly. And don't tell me viewing a screen at 1000+ nits won't damage eyes, when compared to a 300-400 nits one. That's a "fact", cry about it, but it will remain a fact.

                                    "They do not have 3.5mm jack cause they want to force you to get bluetooth earphones, cause who have 1000k for phone, 100 more fot that is nothing"
                                    Kindly enlighten me about that 1,000,000 (1000k) phone you talked about.
                                    Also, wireless audio will always offer an inferior audio quality at any given price segment, be it $10 or $100 or $1000.

                                    And again, irrespective of your rants (or justification) about the rest, my point of "not having them, is NOT a feature, but the lack of it" still holds true.

                                      "It even includes an FM radio, which has become increasingly uncommon these days."
