DC Dimming for AMOLED Screens is Useful
The DC Dimming feature is excellent for users who feel tiredness in their eyes after using their phone on low brightness. Instead of the PWM technology which causes a flicker on AMOLED screens to give an illusion of low brightness, the DC Dimming is a much better technology which compromises on colour accuracy for a bit, but actually lowers the brightness of the phone. To toggle DC Dimming, the users will have to navigate to Utilities and then Laboratory to turn on DC Dimming. This feature is not present under Display settings because it causes colour accuracy to take a small dip.
