They have actually introduced AOD, but only from the iPhone 15.

Their reasoning for not backporting the feature (unless phone is charging) is that the older models don't have LTPO displays that go down to the 1hz they do in AOD on the 15. A stupid reason imo.

Huh? Always on display has been around in iOS for years. Since 2022 with the 14.

That's like...one, maybe two years

As compared with Android, which is like...decades

Ah! You're right, they had it on the 14 Pro and Pro Max. That isn't years though, its barely 1.5 years. (September '22)

It was just not on the normal non-pro models. iPhone 15 non-pro got it though.
