Why use OLED on gaming phones instead of LCD?

- high refresh LCDs exist, there are 90Hz and 120Hz LCD displays.

- one of the biggest use cases for a gaming phone is emulation. Emulators with on screen controls have static, non-shifting white/grey controls that will burn-in quickly, especially if you play games for several hours at a time (judging by the typically large 5000-6000mAh batteries in gaming phones, you're supposed to play for extended sessions).

- LCDs are cheaper and can slightly bring the cost of the phone down....

I posted a few days ago about using E-6000 to seal my phone screen vs the recommended tape. This is the result of disassembly.

My post was pretty well upvoted, but I had a lot of people giving me shit and telling me it's going to corrode the battery, it's a half assed way to repair it, good luck taking it apart, etc.

What has it been; 3, 4 days? I opened it up because I received my new screen from etradesupply. My ribbon cable was going on my old screen and wanted to test this glue on the screen before getting my new screen, hence the last post.

In short, nothing surprising, nothing broken...

AMA about the OnePlus Nord!

Hi Reddit,

Judging by the comments on all the OnePlus Nords posts, I know many of you are probably very, very tired of hearing about the device by now.

Although the phone won't be available in the U.S, I know there are many Europeans and Indians who might be interested in it. I've had the device for nearly 3 weeks now [and did a review of it for XDA](https://www.xda-developers.com/oneplus-nord-review/). If you have any specific questions about the Nord, I'll try to answer them to the best of ...

it costs a fortune, and that sucks...

i recently sold my s6 to prepare for the s7. got myself an ipad mini for my temporary tablet fix. at $350, it has flagship soc, good screen, good speakers. super smooth ux; based my test of loading rise of kingdoms game, the ipad mini is super fast; faster than the s6 even. the bad is that it's ios and its limitations; bad reddit clients, no nova launcher, bad bad bad notification implementation...

it's annoying. i'd gladly pay like $500 for a 7-8 inch an...

The gimmick that got you?

Sometimes gimmicks are there the marketing people to sell their devices. But as a enthousiast sometimes these gimmicks can make a phone feel very different.

For me it was the capacitive home button on my note 9. Its just love and always use It. It's just fun to feel the feedback of a button on my locked screen and see the phone light up. Such a fun gimmick that we will probably never see in a phone again....

Discussion: Would you be supportive of the idea of a "restore notifications" button which would allow you to restore the notifications your phone automatically got rid of when it turned itself off (due to low power etc.)?

Essentially, perhaps my phone turns off more often that others, but I frequently find myself wishing to see the notifications that I missed before my phone turned off (overnight for example).

For notifications that reappear when the phone is turned back on (e.g. Gmail or WhatsApp), it's ok. However, some apps just don't display their notifications again (e.g. Snapchat or Twitter) and you'd never know if you missed an important notification until you actually manually open the app. So why not do...
