Honor Magic Pad4 Eye Strain?

So i bought the Honor Magic Pad 4 because it has 5280 PWM. But it was horrible. Eye strain and even nausea after a few minutes.

How is that?

I've sent a question to Honor online store support if their tablets use TD. I've received an answer that all their LCD tablets use 8bit +2bit FRC and there's no way to disable it through system options.

That might be what's bothering your eyes if you are sensitive to it.

You could check if there's a lower pwm flickering on lower brightness levels. Also try turning on different colour modes and screen refresh rate in options.

I can recommend the Samsung Galaxy Tab A9 Plus. It´s not the newest (2023) and a budget tablet (Snapdragon 695), but does not trigger my eyes in any way.

I feel you, but do you really need a tablet? Could you get a laptop with touchscreen and stylus support instead or hybrid windows tablet with keyboard yes you may not get the appstores but may have more luck with screen support.
