    You can also use a second known polarized lens, from another pair of glasses for example, and you basically do the same thing. You look through both lenses, and then as you're looking through both of them, you turn one lens 90°. If both lenses are polarized, then they will be relatively transparent, and light will go through both of them when the polarization of both lenses are aligned in the same direction, but when the lens's polarization are 90° to each other, they will turn opaque and not let any light through.

      It shouldn't work on AMOLED screens at all -- they do not need polarizing filters. it's possible some manufacturers install them for optical clarity, whereas in LCDs they are fundamental to the way the technology works.
      If you do this with an LCD screnn, the LCD will go COMPLETELY black. This is the best way to test, as it is very, very obvious if they're polarized.

    Re: how to tell if sunglasses are "polarized", there is another simple test: if you have one pair of polarized glasses, you can place a 2nd pair of lenses behind (so you are looking thru both lenses at the same time. If aligned on the same plane, turn the bottom ( ? lense) 45 degrees (either Ryan. Or lt.). If this blocks out ALL light thru the lenses, the questionable lenses are polarized. The reason being that polarized lenses block light in one direction. If light travels thru both lenses initially, turning one lenses. Perpendicular to the other will block all light telling you that both lenses are "polarized".

    Is it normal that one lens is polarized at a different angle than the other one? (Whenever I see a display, even the ones on my car's dashboard, both lenses receive a different amount of light, making an effect akin to the one caused by the 3D glasses in movie theaters)

    You can also use a pair of polarized sunglasses. Look through one pair while rotating the other. The lens will you are looking at will turn dark and light depending on the angle you turn it. If no darking/ lightening then one pair isn’t polarized.

Are they polarized? I payed $50 and theyre mint. The pretty girl seller said that the boyfriend she broke up with a year ago left them at her place and that they were never used once. She said they have been collecting dust in a drawer for a year. Her loss my gain?

    Before the advent of the smart phone...we did exactly this but instead of using a smart phone "lens" as the 2nd lens...we held up the questionable sunglasses up to another pair of ACTUAL polarized lenses. If they turn darker (or blackout) as you rotated....you knew the 'questionable' sunglasses now passed the test and are actually polarized. *(I realize most people know this...but there might be a 16 yr old or really young person who doesn't know this.)

    0:27 Well... Old CRT TVs and new OLED/AMOLED TVs or Smartphones have pixels but aren't necessarily polarized. Even LCD displays aren't all the same. All in all, it's a reasonable way to test your sun glasses. But if you don't have this effect, that doesn't necessarily mean you're sun glasses aren't polarized...
