    When i select a watchface with a white background the backlight (or watchface) seems to flicker at a high frequency. It is only noticeable indoors or at night when the backlight settings are bright. The same is true for a a white theme during training. Is this normal, respectively does anyone else have the same issue/behavour?

    It can be seen in this video I found on youtube at 5:50 (not mine) WhiteBackgroundFlickering@5:50

      @s_roman that’s how camera record screens, should happen with most refresh rates

      I personally and I am a refresh rate maniac (gamer) don’t see this at my s9p

        @dimitrios-kanellopoulos Thanks very much for the fast reply. I am of course aware of the “different framerate issue” when recording screens with a camera. I just posted the video link to emphasize my point. It’s actually how i see it in real. (with my eyes and so…) Maybe it’s just me (issue with my eyes maybe …hopyfully not 😉 ) or an issue with my device. But i don’t have this problem with the white training theme on a spartan ultra. Only on the 9peek.

        But it’s interesting that you don’t have this issue. Thanks for the clarification.

        (I know this is again a video link, but the 9peek display and the 9baro display seem to behave different (different frame rates… or i don’t know…): see this video for example …but again …i only notice the flickering on white background. )
