Huh? I'm talking LED backlights and lamps that regulate brightness with PWM. No color generation involved here. And these can get really ugly: https://www.notebookcheck.com/Test-Lenovo-Ideapad-310-15ISK-...

WTF

That’s all I can say about that.

That said, you were mentioning laptop displays, and the topic was OLED, that’s why I was mentioning why for OLED 60Hz is basically impossible.

And as the display of that Ideapad has around 50 brightness steps, you get a real refresh rate of about 1Hz. That’s insane.

As mentioned, I’ve tried this with the LEDs I’m using to light my room, and below a few kHz I get nausea, and so does the rest of my family.
