Geographical occurrence
This species is found in Australia.
gollark: Also nonreplaceable batteries, because shaving off 0.1mm is much more important than making phones last more than 2 years!
gollark: Burn-in and nonreplaceable screens.
gollark: Unfortunately (in my opinion) I believe most new phones use AMOLED.
gollark: They're small ones.
gollark: The contrast is better since pixels can be fully turned off, and you can make displays flexible, but it's less efficient at higher brightness and you get burn-in as the LEDs degrade.
