You realize Samsung keeps the best displays for itself and gives Apple second best ones? You can see it in things like resolution, peak brightness, refresh rate etc. I thought its only HW specs, maybe it also includes similar small defects, or Apple (and Google) has simply lower acceptance threshold for this

>You realize Samsung keeps the best displays for itself and gives Apple second best ones? You are kidding right? Do you have any sources for this? Samsung Displays is a different company than Samsung Electronics, and just like TSMC, they build displays to order for any customers to their specs, since they're in the business of selling as many displays as possible, not catering exclusively to their sister company making phones. They have no interest to intentionally make lower quality displays for non-Samsung customers, especially due to increased competition from the likes of BOE. Otherwise how do you explain the existence of Chinese phones like OnePlus which traditionally shipped with bleeding edge Samsung panels that had even higher brightness than Samsung's own flagships? So if Apple's displays seem inferior in specs to the cutting edge ones in Samsung's flagship phones, it's because those are the specs Apple ordered Samsung to make knowing full well the compromises (most likely cost and other potentially unknown risky teething issues of bleeding edge OLED tech)

Don’t each of the three specs listed cost battery life if you use them? Might Apple determine there is some point where they don’t want to pay for that tradeoff?
