For me it’s the notification light you used to find on older phones, was particularly good to know if your phone was charged without picking it up

    mine is pretty accurate, but you need to set up carefully

    also, it doesn’t work well with a screen protector

      Varies wildly from phone to phone. I prefer the in screen detectors, since they work great when your phone is on your desk or in a phone dock/charger. They need to be implemented well though.

      The one on my Huawei P30 was fantastic. The one on my Pixel 6 was ass, the one on my Pixel 8 is good.

      The one on the 6 was ass even without a screen protector, the one on the 8 is good even with one.

        I have huawei p30pro, and the in screen sensor is shit, its slow, unreliable, inaccurate, and sometimes it isnt works at all. Its a common problem.

        On my redmi 8 pro it was perfect, as it was on the backside of phone, not in screen
