I can totally understand your situation Leila.
Got the iphone 12 replaced with SE2 and it is perfect since then. Also using iphone 8 plus. No issues whatsoever. Apple needs to seriously consider how to fix this horrible flickering topic of Oled screens. Until this issue is reaolved, all the current generation & upcoming Oled Iphones are worthless for lot of people.
SAME! I have the same problems with iphone 12 and 12pro, they both hurts my eyes very much, I haven't got these problems with any of the previous generation iphones, but iphone 12 made my eye hurts for only using it couple minutes!
Hello people...i have same problem with my 11 pro...
I can't focus on writing, the pictures, I feel a pressure in my head and my eyes start to sting and I feel dizzy after a few minutes of use ... at 11 pro / XS of my friends I don't have the same symptoms ... it seems that only some batches have this problem ... i guess it depends on the company that produces the displays (LG, Sharp or Samsung), ... I will go with it under warranty until I finally solve something. I can't afford an expensive phone without using it
Thank god I’m not the only one!
I bought a iPhone 12 Pro Max and after 2 minutes had a sore head, blurred vision which is absolutely ridiculous for the price of the phone.
I then sent it back and got a iPhone 12 but had the same issue so had to send that back.
I bought a iPhone 11 but let’s face it the screen is rubbish for this day and age so I’m now jumping ship to another company.
Really disappointed apple and such a shame.
Yeah and apple say the screens are made by Samsung however when I used my friends s21 ultra I didn’t get a sore head so something is clearly effecting my eyes on the new iPhones.
Always been apple but it’s time to change as I’m not buying a iPhone 11 as the screen is a disgrace in this day and age. Such a pity.
I have the same problem. I had a iPhone X and XS before and I was using them quite a lot even for video editing no problem. 3 days with iPhone 12 and my head is exploding, my eyes are always red. I need a 5g phone asap so I have to send back the item and buy an android for this stupid problem...
Happy to hear I’m not the only one. I’ve send my unit back. I feel naeseous, especially when scrolling. I’m very disappointed my brain can’t handle the screen since I love the form factor and the MagSafe.
So I’m back with my iPhone 11... fine screen, but too big. While I enjoy FaceID I’m afraid I’m going to go back to the SE 2020.
I’m not going to enjoy leaving the Apple ecosystem though I feel it’s getting worse. Yes the M1 MacMini is great... but try replacing the storage or RAM. I know we can’t replace the CPU and that’s ‘fine’, you know what you’re getting yourself info but... it feels like a big middle finger to everyone who needs a lot of storage or likes Apple products but is on a budget.
I tried iPhone 12 mini for 3-4 weeks and had to go back to using my old phone because of the same problem. It caused so much strain and dizziness. I tried adjusting the setting, brightness, reduced motion, bigger font. Nothing worked. It felt like the screen itself was always 'moving', it's the best way I can describe it. I thought with a few weeks of use my eyes might get adjusted, but no. And my eyes are fine, recently checked! Not worth my eyes, I'm hoping Apple figures something out.
I have the same problem ... I bought first (11 pro) which causes me big headaches, then I said to try 12 pro with which the situation is even worse ... big eye pain and head ... I actually feel my eyes burning, I feel a tension in my forehead, it actually makes me terribly dizzy ... I'm disappointed that I have to retun 12 pro and go to 11 (non-pro) ... Apple do something, pleaaaase !!!!!!!!
Hello, i do suffer from this problem too. I gave my girlfriend an iPhone 12 Mini as a present and i noticed screen flickering in the very first second we turned it on. I'm maybe a highly sensitive person, also noticing the rainbow-effect on one-chip-beamers or PWM-Flickern in LED lighting. The OLED-Screens of iPhone 12 seems to be pulse-width-modulated with 240 Hz. This is by far to a too low frequency. It should be at least around a Kilohertz oder higher to make the PWM-Flickering disappear.
I would love to buy a new iPhone (mini) for me also, but as long as the screen is so bad, i have to keep my iPhone SE (1st).
Thank you for reading

Had the iPhone 12 for about 2 days, it caused the worst eye strain I’ve ever had. Returned the phone and got an 11, which I have no issues with. Skip the iPhone 12 and wait for the 13.
Same exact problem! I changed the setting for “reduce white point” and it’s much better.. but I am not impressed : (
I had a migraine for 2 days when I switched to the iPhone12 and finally googled it to see if the phone had triggered it. Glad to see I’m not the only one with this issue. Very disappointed.
I got a 12 mini for Christmas. I've been having eye strain, blurry vision and headaches, too. I'm just now realizing it's from the phone. I've always had iPhones. This is ridiculous!
