This is a deal breaker for me if the case as pwm is the bane of lcd tech!


Oh dear, now I afraid the Clara has this (too)... my eyes get strained really quickly when reading in the semi-dark with brightness at 1%... I thought I was just more tired than I was when I read with my Glo but maybe it's a flickering...? Would also explain why nightmode doesn't help prevent the strain at all...

Sorry for the off topic-ness.


EDIT: I just did a quick same kind of slo-mo video and I see *no* flickering for the Clara's LEDs. Neither in full yellow nor in full white/blue mode.
