You didn't include the sentence where they call out Samsung explicitly:
> Until recently, most phones were made with LCD screens. The iPhone X was the first Apple phone to launch with an OLED screen. Other phones with OLED displays include the Samsung Galaxy S10 and the Huawei Mate P30. For these phones, dark mode can offer healthy battery saving capabilities.
I don't read that as acting like Apple pioneered anything, but I do read it as assuming that most consumers choose Apple and therefore the moment that Apple included OLED LCDs were no longer "most phones".
Which, while frustrating to someone like me who is tired of Android always being treated as an off-brand afterthought, is reflective of reality in the US.
- nubinetwork 2y agoWhy are they talking about the S10... the S5 had an amoled screen.
- BenjiWiebe 2y agoAccording to Wikipedia, the S4, S III, S II, and some S models also had AMOLED screens.
- sva_ 2y agoSure, but the choice of then mentioning the Galaxy S10 (2019) next to the iPhone X (2017) seems like a weird choice, when the Galaxy GT-I7500 (2009) as well as Galaxy S1 (2010) already had AMOLED 9-10 years before that.
