Quote:
We haven't heard about Mirasol for a while now, but Qualcomm's reflective display tech showed up in a few proof-of-concepts on the SID Display Week floor. We got a look at a previously announced 1.5-inch panel embedded on the top of an "always-on" smartphone and on the face of a smartwatch. Though a rep took care to emphasize that these were just mockups, he said the screen will soon show up in some third-party devices.

More interesting, though, was the company's next-gen display: a 5.1-inch panel sporting a stunning 2,560 x 1,440 (577 ppi) resolution. Viewed up close, it delivers crisp images, but the reflective display kicks back a silvery tint and colors don't pop as they do on other handsets. But while the sky-high pixel count may not tell the whole story, the screen offers one huge plus: a 6x power advantage over LCD and OLED displays. In practical terms, that means devices could go days without charging. Don't expect to see this guy in your next smartphone, though: by "next-gen," Qualcomm means this tech has a few more years in the R&D phase before it'll be ready to hit a licensee's production line. For now, make do with our hands-on video after the break.

Confused

I can even see the difference in pixels between 1080p screens (clear difference between S4 and One screens) Wink

Well talking about PPI, you can see a good difference between them, you clearly see the S4 has lesser PPI (441) then the One (469 PPI) and thus less sharper/clearer. Razz
So this 577 PPI is going to be really sweet Very Happy

I don't see ANY difference at all. The resolution of 720p and above are so high on such a small screen, that I don't see a point to it.

again - I only had experience with Xperia Z compared to note 2, so maybe it gets better

s4 looks clearly worse.
But I bet it still would be rather hard to see in real life.
Maybe if i used a microscope Laughing or looked at the chrome icon with my eye touching the screen

edit:

After looking at above image I am really hard trying to stare at my chrome icon on note2 and for hell can't see the pixels. The vision ebcomes too blurry if I look to close.

It's all too artificial difference and marketing. Why have 1440p vs 720p is difference is abrely noticable (if any) but cpu takes such a performance hit

edit: I can see them on my u2312hm 23 inch dell display tho. it is 1080p and if I looks closely it is indeed pixelated Razz

The panel can make a huge difference too.
My mother has a cheap Huawei Y300 with IPS panel and a resolution of 800x480.
I have a Galaxy S3 with the masterful pentile SAMOLED display and a resolution of 1280x720.
While the Huawei clearly can't display as much as the S3, it looks much sharper when viewing text.

Same as my Galaxy Note 10.1 with same resolution as my S3. Text looks like shit on it Vomit

On a tablet resolutions beyond Full-HD might be useful, because of the larger area. But on a smartphone, wtf?

At least Samsung should change their fucking panel or matrix for them. I read somewhere their new Galaxy Tab 3 (10 inch) has again resolution of 1280x720, while their Galaxy S4 got Full-HD WTF

but this is just stupid marketing and waste of cpu power. Don't You see it ?

Leo never dissapoints to post plenty of facepalms and derp emoticons when someone have other opinion than he is Laughing

It's a fucking 5inch mobile device. I dont see any reason to go beyone 720p except for outputting display to tv or monitor

Sure there were differences between lower resolutions and 720p... but in about 5" size, 720p is enough FOR ME. sure if we would go higher the res should go up



and You call technology a resolution on mobile device ? Facepalm
I am all for technology but not at all for shitty marketing to get derps who see 1080p label on the box, to buy the useless shit and throw money. It's getting riddiculous like megapixels.

Its more about what matrix is used than what res nowadays.
Pentile is known to be rather worse than rgb etc


edit: Whatever... why am I even explaining my opinion to You... All you can do is arguing and calling other people derp...

In all fairness, you are pretty derpy.

So, the concept of evolution is lost on you, right? You keep saying you handled an Xperia Z, have you not seen the freakin' difference between 5.3" 720p and 5" 1080p?

Waste of CPU power? First of all, the screen rendering is done by the GPU, which, as you should know, GPU's have advanced A LOT in terms of raw processing power nowadays.

Look at the Nexus 10 or the iPad 3/4. These have current chipsets and GPU's and handle extremely high resolutions with absolutely no problems.

No difference at ALL.
Note 2 is 5.5 720p
z is 5 1080p

And sure- Note8 or tablets sure benefeits from 1080p but a 5incher ? HELL NO

In fact I think note2 screen looks better.
I've also handled S3 and it's screen was also fantastic.


It's all specs on paper, really hard to notice in normal usage. I can see the pixels if I take a photo of screen of my note 2 with a camera. But I cannot for the hell see a difference with my bare eyes.


Oh... and You are all the same - calling other people derp because they have their own opinion on things?

IN ALL FAIRNESS - I think You are derp if You believe the marketing which is made to sell more deveice while in fact there is no difference but "fuck yeah I now have 1440p 5' smartphone"
THAT is derp

Dude, I freakin' work with handheld iOS and Android devices, I do quality assurance on them, I'm pretty fuckin' sure you're gonna like the S3 or Note 2 screens better because they have higher saturation because they're freakin' AMOLED's and simple ol' plain TFT like the Xperia Z.

Oh, and have I mentioned how build quality counts? Look at the difference between a Nexus 4 and an Xperia Z, you keep claiming screen res halts performance, yet the Xperia Z, which has absolutely the same chipset as the Nexus 4, surpasses the Nexus 4 on every front. Yeah, I'm sure as shit screen resolution had a hand in the final results.

It would be so great if you'd stop blaming me for telling you your opinion is bullshit when you yourself tell me everyone who doesn't agree with me is a derp, and then tell you've only handled an Xperia Z and have the Note 2 as a personal device. The display on Xperia Z is mediocre at best.

Facepalm right back in your face. Because yes, if they can cram 1440p into 5 inches, it means we might finally get some high DPI desktop monitors as well.
