I just want a phone with 24 hour screen-on time. Is that so much to ask for in the day and age of self driving cars?
Why? I have no reason for my phone screen to be on while it's in my pocket
AOD is a thing yk
I know, my phone has this feature and I think it's pointless. Why do I need my screen to be on if I'm not using my phone?
So that you have a clock on your desk
My AOD doesn't show notifications if that's related to what you're thinking
Sorry, I'm sure there are other features that you like for this, but just the ones in this thread; long life, always on display, shows the time, sits on a desk, no notifications. That's a clock. Like, a clock clock. Put a clock on your desk.
For sure. This is why I keep my phone plugged in on a stand, usually in do not disturb with only a clock when it is locked. It is, indeed, a clock.
Google: Did you say permanent advertising display?
allows quickly checking time, battery levels and music info by just glancing at the phone and provides a superior alternative to notification led, you actually see which apps sent you notifications specifically.
it makes it easier to find the fingerprint sensor (although there's usually an option to show only the sensor without all the other stuff + it shows automatically when you tap the screen + muscle memory)
I'm terminally online and ADHD
Could get that with eInk pretty easily. Refresh times are still pretty awful though. I had a dumb phone years back that had an eInk display and it would easily last a month between charges.
I think they've improved a lot on the refresh times but I doubt it'd ever be useful for videos or gaming
They really have, yes. But, currently, I find them best for notebook/journal replacement tablets. I agree that, based upon the the mechanism used (physically moving pigment capsules in fluid), it's very unlikely to be useful for gaming. Physical displays can only refresh so quickly.
