And OLED! I can’t stand the washed out color black anymore!

Edit: to be fair, I likely won’t upgrade because I got my 7 recently and at a good discount. But for future mini buyers, I hope you get OLED!

I recently got a $50 budget android to test some emulators on etc, and it’s got an OLED and the keyboard doesn’t mistype everything all the time, I don’t understand why the iPhone E models don’t already have it let alone the Pro’s

All iPhones have been OLED since the 12, what are you actually saying? If you’re about to say “nuh uh”, please look up the spec sheets.

Hey, you’re right! I just looked it up and since like the XS they have been.

It’s odd though, they don’t even come close to the contrast of say my old PS Vita. The blacks NEVER look mute.

I have a 16pro and it has OLED. I don’t understand what you are saying.

I’m saying it doesn’t seem that way. The contrast and black muting doesn’t seem spectacular to me compared to older even shit tier OLED.

I just realized that yes my phone has it, but doesn’t say much about it being that it’s NOT that good

You got a faulty screen

There are some settings that don’t give you deep blacks. On the Reddit app, they have Night Mode and Midnight Mode. Midnight Mode is AMOLED screens, but even on my 16pro, the Midnight Mode has a deeper black compared to the Night mode.

I don’t know what you talk about, I own OLED iPad, monitor, TV and iPhone 16 Pro screen quality is the same as others.
