Although OLED screens are currently the mainstream choice, there are still many users who love LCD screens, and some won’t buy anything but LCD phones. The reason for this is their persistent preference for the full DC dimming feature of LCDs, and they also have better aging resistance than OLEDs. If a phone is to be used for four to five years, then an LCD might be a good choice.
Next, I will discuss three LCD screen smartphones that are affordable and perform well, making them suitable for long-term use.
This Double Eleven, the OPPO K10 has some discounts, currently the price for the 8GB + 256GB version is 1799 yuan, which is reasonable considering its configuration. The specifications are as follows:
This phone is powered by the Dimensity 8000-MAX processor, which is manufactured using TSMC’s 5nm process, offering excellent energy efficiency. Its performance is stronger than Snapdragon 870, while consuming less power, making it capable of smoothly running various applications.
The OPPO K10 features a 6.59-inch LCD screen with a resolution of 2412*1080, boasting a PPI of 401, which is quite detailed. Additionally, this screen supports a variable refresh rate of 120HZ, providing a good viewing experience and smoothness.
This phone features a combination of 64MP main camera + 8MP ultra-wide + 2MP macro camera, with the main sensor being OV64B, which has a 1/2 inch sensor size, providing average photo quality.
The OPPO K10 is equipped with a 5000mAh battery + 67W fast charging combination, offering good battery life and decent charging speed.
It’s rare to find such a high cost-performance ratio in OPPO’s lineup, and considering its price, its product strength is quite impressive.
2. OnePlus Ace Racing Edition
The OnePlus Ace Racing Edition also has significant discounts during Double Eleven, with its 12GB + 256GB version priced at 1899 yuan, offering great value. The specifications are as follows:
This phone uses the Dimensity 8100-MAX processor, which is among the top performers in its price range, as there are no Snapdragon 8+ processor phones under 2000, while the Snapdragon 888 generates too much heat.
The OnePlus Ace Racing Edition features a 6.59-inch LCD screen with a resolution of 2412*1080, supporting a variable refresh rate of 120HZ, balancing smoothness and power consumption, with a decent viewing experience.
This phone features a 64MP main camera + 8MP ultra-wide + 2MP macro camera combination. The main sensor is also OV64B, providing average photo quality.
Like the OPPO K10, the OnePlus Ace Racing Edition also has a 5000mAh battery + 67W fast charging setup, offering great battery life and decent charging speed.
Upon closer inspection, the OnePlus Ace Racing Edition and OPPO K10 have similar configurations, and they can actually be considered as the same device, especially since OnePlus is under OPPO.
Some people may not prefer Dimensity processors, so let’s look at a smartphone with a Snapdragon processor and an LCD screen: the IQOO Neo5 SE. Currently, this phone is available at a starting price of below 1600 yuan, offering good value. The specifications are as follows:
The IQOO Neo5 SE is powered by the Snapdragon 870 processor, which offers decent performance and low power consumption, previously used in many mid-to-high-end smartphones.
This phone features a 6.67-inch LCD screen with a resolution of 2400*1080, supporting 144HZ adjustable refresh rate, and has a chin width of only 3.94mm, making it one of the narrowest options among LCD screen smartphones.
The IQOO Neo5 SE features a 50MP main camera + 8MP ultra-wide + 2MP macro camera combination, which does not support optical stabilization, resulting in poor photo quality.
This phone is equipped with a 4500mAh battery + 55W charging combination, providing average battery life and charging speed.
For the IQOO Neo5 SE, its biggest highlight is the Snapdragon 870 + LCD screen, as most high-performance LCD smartphones are currently based on Dimensity platforms, making the IQOO Neo5 SE particularly valuable.
In conclusion, there is another smartphone with high performance and high-quality LCD screen: the Redmi Note 11T Pro, which also performs very well. The above four smartphones are currently the best high-performance LCD screen phones available for purchase, which everyone can consider rationally.
