Screen Flickering / PWM (Pulse-Width Modulation)

ℹ

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

215.5 Hz

The display backlight flickers at 215.5 Hz (Likely utilizing PWM) .

The frequency of 215.5 Hz is relatively low, so sensitive users will likely notice flickering and experience eyestrain at the stated brightness setting and below.

In comparison: 54 % of all tested devices do not use PWM to dim the display. If PWM was detected, an average of 10727 (minimum: 43 - maximum: 588200) Hz was measured.

Display Response Times

ℹ

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
6 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↗ 3 ms rise
6 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↘ 3 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 0.8 (minimum) to 240 (maximum) ms. » 3 % of all devices are better. This means that the measured response time is better than the average of all tested devices (26 ms).
↔ Response Time 50% Grey to 80% Grey
8 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↗ 3 ms rise
8 ms ... rise ↗ and fall ↘ combined	↘ 5 ms fall
The screen shows fast response rates in our tests and should be suited for gaming. In comparison, all tested devices range from 0.9 (minimum) to 636 (maximum) ms. » 3 % of all devices are better. This means that the measured response time is better than the average of all tested devices (41.6 ms).

Med sin Galaxy S9 Plus har Samsung återigen lyckats skapa en utmärkt smartphone som fått många vettiga förbättringar men inga riktiga innovationer. Huvudkamerans två bländarnivåer är en utmärkt sak att ha och fungerar bra i vardagen. Samsung har också optimerad kvaliteten på bilderna ytterligare. Super Slow Motion-läget är inte mycket mer än en gimmick för bra ljusförhållanden och bilderna man får ut av det är endast lämpliga för sociala nätverk. AR-emojis fungerar heller inte särskilt bra. Eventuella likheter med användaren beror i huvudsak på tur.

Men hur det än ligger till med det så har det Koreanska företaget ändå levererat en utmärkt produkt. En snabb processor, fantastisk skärm, bättre placering av fingeravtrycksläsaren, lagring som lätt kan utökas, bra stereohögtalare och skydd från damm och vatten är alla definitivt fördelar. Det finns till och med en variant med dual-SIM tillgänglig.

Samsung Galaxy S9 Plus är en kraftfull smartphone, men den måste ändå brottas med en del inledande svårigheter.

Denna Samsung-smartphone är lite mindre övertygande när det kommer till batteritiderna, som är märkbart sämre än dom var på den föregående modellen. Quick Charge fungerade heller inte på vår testenhet, så den behövde mer än fyra timmar att laddas till fullo i vårt test – alldeles för långt. Samsung kommer antagligen att lösa dom här problemen med en uppdatering, men det lämnar ändå en dålig smak i munnen hos användare som redan från början köpt denna telefon till fullpris.

Om du redan äger en Galaxy S8+ så finns det ingen akut anledning att byta nu. Skillnaderna i vardaglig användning är för små för att rättfärdiga prisskillnaden.
