Sometimes the problems with the screens of the devices are translated into the typical light leaks or as it seems is happening in the new sixth generation iPad mini, with the screens showing a "Gelatinous displacement" which comes to be the translation of "jelly scrolling » English.
This problem does not seem to affect all users equally and by this we mean that in view of the user himself and not the new iPad mini. The problem is that when you move your finger on the screen, the text is as if it were wobbling and it affects some users more than others. Visually we can get used to it and this stays at that, but many users can become dizzy or feel bad for this problem on the screen.
Un tweet posted by The Verge editor Dieter Bohn, perfectly shows this effect on iPad mini screens:
Here is slow-mo video of scrolling on the iPad Min i slowed down EVEN MORE in a frame-by-frame step through. Notice how the right moves up faster than the left.
In normal usage you barely see it, but every now and then it becomes noticeable. In landscape it goes away entirely pic.twitter.com/iq9LGJzsDI

At the moment the problem does not seem to be only a few specific units, it is more of a widespread problem in most devices. This is shown as a slower scrolling of the part of the text from one side than the other at the time of scrolling.
Everything indicates that it is a general problem in all new devices and now It remains to be seen if it is due to the failure of the LCD panel itself installed in the iPad mini or is it a failure in firmware or software. In any case, the iPad Pro or the new iPhone with a refresh rate of 120Hz do not have this problem due to the higher refresh rate.
One user may notice more than another "this failure" and for many it may even become a problem of dizziness when scrolling. In any case, everything indicates that this problem exists in the new devices and we will see how the issue progresses. Do you have one of these new iPad mini? Do you notice this jelly-like motion effect? Leave your opinion in the comments.
