Any phones that can do AoD function just like and as good as the LG G5?

Hello everyone I hope you all have pleasant days

So cut through the chase, this photo I attached in this post is an LG G5 SE on my hands, the Always on Display functionality in this one is very excellent to me, due to the fact to me, because it uses an IPS panel pulling this AoD stunt off.

I am aware the LG G5 non SE is pretty much the same thing as this one I have on my hands just with a way better specced chipset at the time and 1GB more RAM on the non SE. So the displays are just plain same between the two.

Now that the LG G5 non SE has been mentioned that can do this kind of AoD as well, I would like to know if there are other phones that have this same thing going on for them too. IPS panel, but blacks are black enough for this kind of AoD quality or just the panel of a phone itself even though non OLED but is just that as good to an OLED when it comes to AoD feature

 

Thanks for coming by have a great day

Ah hadn't seen this I just slept 8 hours...

So OLEDs to me are nice and all and looks good and I have noted some OLEDs that are natural looking and not oversaturating

but I am still a bit worried of burn in(s), while I myself don't ever use full brightness on a full day on my G5 SE unit and when I use OLED I would surely do the same habit, I am worried when the time I have to or accidentally say, leave my OLED phone on full brightness for half an hour GPS on the motorcycle, I am worried I'd get burn in

 

Also I have planned to get something for my G5 SE replacement and I have surrendered myself to go AMOLED since I have ordered a well used Realme X that has a FHD+ 6.53" OLED for the screen, at least it has under screen optical fingerprint sensor to cheer me up to not get burn in

So yeah I am still interested to know those kinds of IPS phones that can do the LG G5's kind of AoD, not to disrespect OLEDs but I think IPS can still have their way to get close to how AMOLEDs can do their colour reproduction

Your best bet is to cherry pick an IPS display phone that is known for excellent blacks, and then install a custom ROM that has AOD feature.

Oh right that's a good way to work around on if the stock firmware of the phone I end up find fulfilling the excellent IPS mark doesn't provide an AoD switch,

 

About the Realme X though since I have settled for that as an upgrade I think I'd miss the capabilities of what can be shown in the G5/SE's AoD, if I remember correctly the Realme X on it's stock firmware is limited to show stuff like phone calls and incoming SMS, compared to well pretty much any notifications that can be shown on the G5 series AoD, eh prolly I'll try the Evolution X custom rom on the X down the line

If you get a phone where you can adjust the color perimeters, you shouldn't have a problem with how it looks.

Burn in isn't really much of an issue unless you're going to have a static image on the screen at all times. I've never experienced burn in on any of my phones over the past decade, all of which have been AMOLED. Burn in doesn't happen anywhere near that quickly.

 

IPS panels aren't bad, but there's a reason they're not in higher end devices; they simply don't stack up.
