Am I the only person who does not want this feature? I fear it will wear the display out faster and I like the peace of mind that it’s not accepting inputs when the screen is off.
Fears are often based on lack of knowledge.
Don’t oled displays have a short lifespan compared to lcd?
Shorter, yes. People say 8-10 years. But there are virtually no smartphones that run any type of security-patched OS which are 8-10 years old.
Not yet. But, the latest pixels will be supported for 7 years, and the fairphone will get security patches for 8-10 years. So, in the future. There will be, yes. Fortunately, both should get replacement parts, making it a non-issue.
It's an option
I feel the exact same way, within 5 minutes of getting the phone setup I turned it off
You have a higher chance of a burn-in with static UI elements like the status bar than by using the always-on display feature.
Eh, the info does slightly move so it's not on the same pixels all the time. Plus, you're not going to use your phone long enough for it to matter.
