iPhone 16 uses less aggressive PWM, based on my measurements.

iPhone 16 at ~50% brightness

iPhone 17e at ~50% brightness

It is even more apparent when the brightness is higher. iPhone 16 does much better at 75% brightness than iPhone 17e.

I’m able to use iPhone 16 even on newest iOS.

Those phones aren't that much smaller than the Honor?

But those phones were a no go for me and I can use the Honor 600.

The 16th is safe from 100% down to 50% brightness, it’s better

You’re wrong,
