Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)

To dim the screen, some notebooks will simply cycle the backlight on and off in rapid succession - a method called Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) . This cycling frequency should ideally be undetectable to the human eye. If said frequency is too low, users with sensitive eyes may experience strain or headaches or even notice the flickering altogether.
Screen flickering / PWM detected 238.1 Hz

The display backlight flickers at 238.1 Hz (worst case, e.g., utilizing PWM) .

The frequency of 238.1 Hz is relatively low, so sensitive users will likely notice flickering and experience eyestrain at the stated brightness setting and below.

In comparison: 53 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 18071 (minimum: 5 - maximum: 3846000) Hz was measured.

Display Response Times

Display response times show how fast the screen is able to change from one color to the next. Slow response times can lead to afterimages and can cause moving objects to appear blurry (ghosting). Gamers of fast-paced 3D titles should pay special attention to fast response times.
       Response Time Black to White
3.6 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 2 ms rise
↘ 1.6 ms fall
The screen shows very fast response rates in our tests and should be very well suited for fast-paced gaming.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.1 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) ms. » 10 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is better than the average of all tested devices (21.6 ms).
       Response Time 50% Grey to 80% Grey
4 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined↗ 2 ms rise
↘ 2 ms fall
The screen shows very fast response rates in our tests and should be very well suited for fast-paced gaming.
In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.2 (minimum) to 636 (maximum) ms. » 9 % of all devices are better.
This means that the measured response time is better than the average of all tested devices (33.9 ms).

Samsung erbjuder en bra mittenskikts-smartphone med sin Galaxy A6 (2018), som får tävla mot kapabla konkurrenter. Den har ett flertal fördelar men också precis lika många nackdelar.

Samsung Galaxy A6 (2018) är en bra mittenskikts-smartphone som presterar sämre än sin föregångare Samsung Galaxy A5 (2017) på ett antal områden.

Galaxy A6 (2018) får många poäng för sin utmärkta design, ljusstarka och välkalibrerade skärm och långa batteritid. Den har också uppdaterad Android (8.0 Oreo), riktig Dual SIM-funktionalitet samt utökningsbar lagring (den interna lagringen kan utökas med ett microSD-kort). Kameramodulen presterar inte särskilt bra: Huvudkameran på 16 MP producerar "okej" foton i dagsljus men får kämpa i situationer med lite ljus.

Galaxy A6 (2018) för ca 3000 kronor har en del brister. MicroUSB-porten är kraftigt utdaterad. Andra nackdelar inkluderar: Långsam WiFi, avsaknad av IP-certifiering och att den tar lång tid att ladda. Med sin Exynos 7870 SoC och ARM Mali T830 MP2-grafikenhet så har Galaxy A6 (2018) mer än tillräckligt med prestanda för vardagsanvändning. Men den är inte i närheten av tillräckligt kraftfull för spel. Totalt sett är föregångaren Samsung Galaxy A5 (2017) ett bättre val, om du inte behöver stöd för Dual-SIM. Den har bättre prestanda till ett lägre pris.
