Maybe your old phone's screen sucked. I switched from flagship 2021 OLED phone to mid-tier IPS 2020 phone. I prefer IPS, because it crisper and have more neutral colors. And more important, it doesn't have stupid waterfall edges.

My old phone screen was fine, I just hate bright lights and OLED gets way darker.

My new phone doesn't have waterfall edges, presuming that's a curved edge thing. Flat display on all sides, no side bullshit.

Another benefit of OLED, at least in my case (nothing phone 2a) is there's no polarisation layer so I can wear my sunnies and look at my phone on any angle I please, instead of rotating it making the screen vanish. Laptop still does that and it's super annoying, if I'm outside watching videos on it I just can't use sunglasses.
