This may indicate that the Pixel 10 could debut with&nbsp;<strong>a higher PWM dimming rate or a new accessibility mode<\/strong>&nbsp;to reduce screen flicker, similar to solutions offered by OnePlus, Motorola, or Honor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">New display options could improve eye comfort<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Users who suffer from flicker sensitivity, despite no medical history of migraines or epilepsy, often find&nbsp;<strong>low-frequency PWM dimming extremely uncomfortable<\/strong>. Brands like Nothing and Xiaomi have already introduced displays with&nbsp;<strong>PWM rates up to 2,000Hz or hybrid dimming modes<\/strong>, dramatically reducing eye strain at all brightness levels.

Whether through&nbsp;<strong>higher PWM rates or customizable display settings<\/strong>, this would mark a major improvement for those affected by flickering OLED panels.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Google might finally be listening to users who have long complained about&nbsp;eye strain caused by PWM dimming on OLED displays.
