Polarised/polarized sunglasses - screen visibility - Huawei P20 Lite Questions & Answers

Does anyone have polarised sunglasses and own a P20 Lite? I am trying to find out which orientation the screen visibility is affected on the P20 Lite (portrait or landscape).
For those of you who aren't aware, wearing polarised sunglasses and viewing an LCD screen results in one orientation being difficult to see and virtually impossible in sunlight. My old OnePlus 2 was visible in portrait mode but not landscape, but my most recent Honor 9 was visible in landscape and not portrait which was really annoying as you had to remove your glasses to do anything with your phone when held in portrait mode (send a text, make a call...). Unfortunately every mobile phone shop that I have visited only have dummy P20 Lites on the shelf so they don't have a working screen for me to test with my own sunglasses, and Huawei haven't responded to my direct enquiry.
LED screens aren't affected but my budget doesn't stretch to the P20 Pro.
Thanks

Polaroid sunglasses and protective film
I have Polaroid sunglasses and taking into account that the brightness can also be affected by my current protective film. I have a slight shadow in normal position and full luminosity in portrait

polarized sunglasses (mediapad m5 as car gps)

Hello folks,
.
I'd like to purchase a mediapad m5 (8.4 maybe 10.8) for use as a car gps.
.
I owned a z3 sony tablet for a while, it was a good product except I could not use it with my *polarized* sunglasses in landscape mode, screen became invisible
So I now have a galaxy tab s2 9.7, the super amoled screen is visible in both landscape and portrait modes with polarized sunglasses.
.
I'm considering the m5 due to its 16/9 form factor, as opposed to 4/3 in use by samsung on their tablets.
I'd be grateful if some of the current users of the mediapad m5 could try polarized sunglasses to see if it can be used normally in both landscape and portrait.
.
Thanks in advance for your kind advice.

I've tried with polarized ones, can be used in landscape and portrait as well. In portrait it's just a bit darked.

10.8
lcd screens are typically polarized at 45° . which can interfere with sunglasses if you tilt your head. If you want an unpolarized screen you need oled.
Thanks obveron
In the case of the z3c the lcd screen was perfectly visible in portrait.
In a gps setup however it is easier to use a tablet in landscape.
Have you tried yours with polarized sunglasses?
I'm curious to know whether the experience onlyoneme is valid for all models and regardless of the type of sunglasses.
Any feedback on the mediapad 8.4 would be particularly useful.
The m5 tablets are not available locally in stores in my country so I'd have to order it online "blind" from overseas without trying it first, hence the question.

is the display supposed to be this dull?

i got the huawei mate 10 pro specifically for the thin bezels and oled display with no rounded corners or rounded screen and i have to say i absolutely hate the display, it reminds me of the samsung galaxy 4 years ago, the colors are so dull that my Xperia xz1 has noticably crisper more vibrant colors putting them side by side makes the huawei look like a joke where like 50% of it's colors are reduced especially with green, is this due to the preapplied screen protector will there be a big difference if it was removed? frankly i am shocked at how bad this screen is to my Eyes i don't love the screen of the s9+ either most oled panels appear very warm to me i think the note 9 is the only panel that hasn't from the brief experience i had with it but the s9+ is still miles better, i have put the color to as cold as i possibly can but it still appears so warm and yellow, i have my Xperia xz1 set to the extra vibrant mode with blue set to 150 so i prefer cold colors over anything, but seriously the color is so dull on the huawei so dull and dissappointing, the Xperia uses ips the huawei uses oled, ips is not supposed to be crisper and more vibrant.
Uhh you do know there's a color profile option under Display--->Color option right? I suggest checking that out cuz this post is pretty ridiculous
Plus the XZ1 has an HDR display according to the spec sheets so you're comparison to crispness is basically out of whack

Mate20 Pro Photo color issue - soft

Hi friends,
i have tested two devices ,both i noticed the photo color saturation issue , I'm not happy as much i expected,
here I'm attaching some photographs

hope it will be fixed by next version software
even turn off the front camera beautification mode, still it do some beautifying by itself.
I see apple trends going on. Price,beauty mode pre-installed,no screen protector nor free cover from the box. P30 Pro you won't even get usb-c to jack dongle.
I was suppose to pre-order this and was waiting for long time, but now bit in confusion by using for couple days ..,

Display washed out.

I picked up my mate 20 pro yesterday and I am happy with the phone except for one issue, the display. Coming from a note 8 the mate 20 pro display is really washed out looking. Colours dont pop the way they do on the note., t all looks very bland. Is this a known issue or just the way the display is because if its normal I think Ill have to return it.
it's just the way it is. Samsung over-saturate the colors so they don't look realistic but they look great (subjective opinion, some people prefer "realistic colors", or at least try to convince themselves to justify purchase), for example if you take a picture of grass it'll look better on the screen that it does in real life lol.
Also samsung uses SuperAMOLED which has the touch panel layer integrated in the screen and it is extremely thin around 0.001 mm, which makes it look almost as if there was no glass at all and as if you were looking directly at the screen and makes other phones look as if screen was a little bit separated from glass and you're looking through it like looking at a landscape from the inside of your car with window up vs rolling the window down

This was one of the main reasons I'm returning the Mate 20 Pro and going back to the Note 9, I do watch a lot of videos on the phone so had to go back to the Note 9 because of the way superior display. The screen on the Mate 20 Pro is considerable narrower and smaller overall when watching videos with the notch hidden, colors washed out, not superAMOLED and I had the awful green tint issue in low light conditions (https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=78076209).

Issue about Realme XT Amoled Display True deep blacks.

Hello RXT Users,
I bought a new Realme XT (6GB,64GB, Pearl White) Mobile, which works like a beast.
But within a week, I accidently noticed that the true deep blacks of Amoled display actually kills the surrounding Grey colour pixels especially in videos (or moving frames).
When I using Instagram, Samsung just posted some photos. when I try to swipe one photo horizontally, I noticed that the gradient colours (White to black) are like vanished some time and and a bluish shade is appearing btw the blacks and whites.
Then I started comparing this with other LCD panel, which is not doing these weird things. I also did a side by side comparison btw Realme XT and other LCD display by playing a dark horror movie. The results came was not expected.
First things first, the picture quality, colours, contrast and viewing angles are awesome in Amoled display, But the grey coloured details which are nearer to the black pixels are missing, they are completely gone.
Example:
• Original frame in the movie - A dark room with cupboards and interior.
• Picture shown in LCD display - white blushed dark room with cupboards and interior.
• Picture shown in Realme XT - A Deep Dark Black room with no interiors no cupboards or even no walls.
I can't understand why the Amoled display takes more time when pixels changes from black to grey colours, may it's because of low refresh rate.
Can anyone please tell the display refresh rate of Realme XT and try the above tests to clarify that I am not the only one who got these weird thing. Thanks in advance.
Note: I am using Amoled display for the first time.
This is quite disturbing to know. I was planning on buying XT and returning my Poco armoured, as it has ghost touch issues and I don't need that much processor power for daily usage.
Also, with XT getting started on development I hope I won't miss Poco. But with the above-mentioned issue, I'm getting skeptical because my primary reason to get XT was AMOLED display. I don't want to get disappointed by it.
Although it doesn't has ambient display and dark mode yet but I hope it'll be there in future updates.
Sent from my POCO F1 using XDA Labs
After reading this post I checked my xt's display for the greys in dark scenes with my le 2 LCD display and I'm pretty satisfied. I was able to see most of the details of dark scenes that was visible on the other phone. Plus I found it's very vibrant as compared to the le 2 and brightness level is also much better.
