    comparing every new smartphone's physical build to iphone is like comparing every other car with another(4 wheels, windshields and headlights). c'mon guys, everyone is trying to build a very slim phone with a good screen real estate, unless you want a circular or triangular phone, you should only compare what's inside the phone. Heck do you hear people complain that the latest LED TV's are a copycat of a Samsung/LG or a Sony? Hell no! So stop this childish comparisons with iphone!

        LG provided the iphone4's retina display as well as the ipad's ips lcd display. I won't be surprised if ipad2 and iphone5 will be using LG's nova display as well. That would be awesome. This display technology easily beats samoled, and what makes it even better is, there's no shortage like the samoled has.

            Dion, 06 Jan 2011So wait, the only thing that classifies a phone as unique i... morelol i'm a nokia owner bro

            i own the N8 XD iphon4 honestly is balls

            but everyone is using the iphone design for their new phones and devices and it's now no more then a shell

            even look at samsung's music player.........looks like a damn ipod touch
            and now

            samsung galaxy s looks like iphone3g
            this new LG,HTC and meizu all look like iphone 4

            something is really wrong if they can't make their own unique design anymore

            N8 is unique as in VERY unique

Oh please, you're just an Apple fanboy jealous that the iPhone 4G, 4GS or 5 hasn't been announced.

                  have you considered the fact in a designs evolution once you take ergonomics in to account you cant really deviate too much froma common shape, waht are you expected a phone with a hole in the centre or one thats an L shape?

                        Well done LG! The guys from Samsung must be idiots. They put a super amoled plus on a 4.5 screen phone, which will be used only by giants.
                        The first 3D screen is also nice. I just wait for the first phone capable of 3D videocall:). That would be sooo cool:).

                                A *bright* display is not necesssarily better though. I generally leave my screen to about 20-50% to save batery, and strain my eyes less

                                      Doesnt look anything new no, but then for me thats kind of a good thing because if you say to your mates "hey ive got a new phone" when they see it looks like an iphone they will think its boring and nothing special, then you wow them with specs
