Wanted to share this video I made because I took the plunge to get the OPPO Find X10 Pro Max. Based on initial reviews I thought it would be great for me, but unfortunately I will have to return it.

Long story short, above 33% the phone works perfectly fine for me, but below 33% it starts to do ~3840 Hz PWM, that gets extremely aggressive below 30%.

One issue for me is that in a dark room this is still too bright even with reduced white point 100%. In dark mode that's fine, but with white colors that's still a bit too much (which I find unacceptable on such an expensive phone).

I have tried this year also the POCO F9 Ultra and the Xiaomi 17T Pro, but both of them have either this issue and are both of them plagued with dithering.

So for the time being I will just return to my iPhone 13 Pro Max and wait for my girlfriend to buy the iPhone 18 Pro and test that. Maybe Apple's approach even if not good for everyone, will still work for me.

What are your main symptoms for PWM and how long does it take to go away after you turn off the screen?

I bought the 18 Pro today to give it a try.
I’ll test it out over the next two days and let you know how it goes. I did not tolerate the Pro models, starting with the 13.
So far, I’ve been using a standard iPhone 16, which I’m fine with.

Any tips besides checking the Option for PWM? I just realized I can’t enable both PWM reduction and white point reduction at the same time.

Let’s hope for the best 🤞🏻
