Thanks again, I truly appreciate your posts.

I don't know exactly what it is with the Hisense A5 Pro CC screen. I turned the lights off like you suggested, it made it better, but still it's hard on the eyes.

It could be that the screen's darker, yes, so I need more ambient light, and turned the ambien light down to the right amount helps some. It's likely that it's hard on the eyes due to be the dots and resolution, and it might be partly due to them opting for a glossy display, but I doubt it, though I wish they would have made it matte.

Anyways it is tiring for the eyes even without the front light, so I will see how the return process works at Aliexpress. Something tells me it ain't gonna be an express process. More likely a Kafka process.

But the phone, I am studying it to see if the Hisense A5 Pro black & white version could be okay for my use. So ...

From the web:
I downloaded UpToDown
I downloaded F-Droid

From F-Droid:
I downloaded Aurora Store. And, if someone else does, for the love of God, use the Anonymous option on Aurora Store. Aurora Store is like Google Play without being able to purchase apps.

On Aurora Store I got Gboard. Damn what a relief that it works. Now I can type without switching from Chinese to English every time.

I got Chrome, on UpToDown, that works fine.

I got Anki, and for spelling cards, typing with Gboard isn't too slow, it's fine really, but it takes somewhat too long to get the Gboard up in each typing card. But it takes only like four minutes to really feel eye strain.

I got Quizlet, an old version from UpToDown, and that worked well. Fast, but not sure if fast enough for ease of use. Either almost fast enough, or fast enough. Haven't experimented much yet.

I got Echohacks, but it fails after some 10 seconds, like it's always done on newer os of Android. That was expected.

Got some more testing to do. Those apps, especially, using them more, but also Listen Audiobook Player and some workout apps.
