Paul, To my understanding, the backlight controller of all LED lit screens use high frequency flashing of the LEDs with different on-times, to adjust the (perceived) brightness. So for instance, at 100% brightness, LEDs are on at all times (no flickering). At 80% brightness, LEDs are flashing while being on for 80% of time and off for 20% of time. As the brightness decreases, the flickering increases. All that said, due to the high frequency of flashing, it's usually difficult to detect the flickering without paying special attention. If your screen is annoying you, there might be something wrong with it.
