PWM is display manufactors dirty little secret that causes countless people headaches and eye problems,it should of never of been allowed to be used in consumer devices!
Judging from the way the kobo screen flickers suggests to me it's doing it at alot faster than 240hz so maybe not as big of an issue than it first seems but the fact that it is flickering at all is enough to put me off i'm afriad.

You can take off the tinfoil hat.
And really, no. I'm sorry but you just don't seem to get it. You're using random forum users to try and make a case for PWM being a widespread issue because those forum users get eyestrain when using an LED screen. There are numerous causes of eyestrain, even if you limit it to JUST when using an LED device. So sorry but your 'evidence' is junk.
Further, your claim that this is even a widespread issue with the Forma is junk. We've had more negative reports for this issue, that is people unable to reproduce the same results using the same methods than we have had positive ones. Your poll here is actually very expressive of that fact as is the thread itself.
I'm not saying PWM isn't an issue, nor that you don't suffer from it. However you have as of yet to give any actual evidence to back your suggestions up.
But lets assume you're right, that it's more than 10%,that it is essentially everyone. Given the number of iPhone and Samsung phones out there, likely hundreds of millions as the iphone x alone sold 52 million as of May of this year, you'd have to show way more people with this issue than you have. It would have caused a huge PR nightmare for Apple and Samsung, imagine if even 1/3 of the customers had this issue that's way too many potential returns for a single issue.
So, again, sorry, but you're wrong, and you're peddling junk science in your claims.
