Exclusive: Honor just launched a groundbreaking new display tech

Honor's AI defocus tech aims to solve myopia with devices you use every day.

(Image credit: Nicholas Sutrich / Android Central)Myopia, or nearsightedness, is a problem created when eyes grow longer in order to better focus on objects that are arm's length or closer to them. In a document provided to Android Central, Honor links to several pieces of related research that show how simulated defocus solutions can help improve the eyes of anything from tree shrews to human adults when used regularly over a period of anywhere from 45 minutes to 2 weeks. Samsung actually took a fascinating step toward this last part with the display on the Galaxy S24 Ultra, giving it anti-glare properties but the company didn't go far enough to reduce the amount of flicker coming from its relatively slow 480Hz PWM rate.
