Honor has stepped up on its display game and it was evidenced by the Magic 5 Pro‘s 6.81-inch LTPO OLED screen with a high resolution, 10-bit color depth, 120Hz dynamic refresh rate, and HDR10+ support. Now, the company is set to launch the new Honor 90 series on May 29, and ahead of the release, it has released a video in which it tests the screen of the Honor 90 against 102 current mainstream OLED phones. The video shows that the Honor 90’s screen outperforms the competition in a number of key areas. Here are the details.
Honor 90 shows the least screen flickering
Honor conducted a test comparing the screen of the Honor 90 with 102 current mainstream OLED phones. You might be aware that OLED panels are commonly used in the majority of mid-range and flagship smartphones. It offers accurate colors and fine picture quality.
Honor highlights that there are also hidden visual health risks associated with OLED screens. These screens can flicker at high frequencies, which, although invisible to the naked eye, can cause eye strain and headaches in some individuals.
In its test, Honor visualized the strobe flicker of all 102 phones by adjusting them to a white screen. The company used a high-speed camera with a shutter speed of 1/800 second to capture the flickering, and the images were displayed on a smart screen for comparison. The results of the test revealed that all mobile phone screens showed varying degrees of stroboscopic flicker.
However, the severity of the flicker is claimed to be dependent on the dimming frequency, with lower frequencies resulting in heavier flickering. Honor’s test reveals that only one screen stood out in the test—the Honor 90. It demonstrated bright performance and showed no stroboscopic flicker under any visual conditions.
Honor 90 will be the first to come with 3840Hz ultra-high frequency PWM dimming. In addition, it has also passed the TÜV Rheinland flicker-free certification, reaching the zero-risk dimming level. More specifications can be found here.
