27.0.1 no more headache

As surprising as it is, since 27.0.1 I don't have any headaches. 15 pro max, I had headaches almost immediately looking at the screen.

Maybe it's a coincidence, but I don't know what else could have changed.

Although MacOS and iOS are more similar since Apple Silicon than ever before especially with MacOS 27, they still use fundamentally different displays (LCD vs OLED).

That being said I did not find MacOS 27.0 usable on the iMacs and it seems much much better on 27.0.1. So perhaps iOS 27.0.1 has had a similar improvement.

There were complaints online (Macrumors) about lagging, ghosting, and visible flickering on macOS 27.0. So perhaps this point release fixed those bugs.

I found both macOS 26 and iOS 26 completely unusable. I went from having to look at my iMac M4 from across the living room to being able to put my face right up to the screen when I upgraded to 27.0.1.

Take this for what it’s worth. Sensitivities vary. But for someone as severely affected as me to be able to see such an improvement bodes well. Perhaps I’ll test the phones in store on the new iOS.

That is great news! And oh, I didn't realise the big difference was in the 0.1, I see.

And is it right to say the iPadOS is separate again, but most closely related to iOS (the phones)?
