Comment by wahlrus | original | The MacBook Pro's OLED PWM Problem: When a 'Better' Display Becomes Worse to Use
[−]wahlrus · 2026-11-15 Sun 14:59 UTC · link
Does anyone know if this is something that can be addressed in firmware or hardware?

For example, could we overlay a software dimmer while driving the panel at max brightness?

Or would it be possible to tune PWM settings from the OS?

Or would this be possible to tune with a firmware change?

Idk how these things work.
