    mhowden62395, 06 Jan 2017eeeshh, i have a 4k pc monitor :/ kind of puts your sarcasm... moreYou know I knew it was actually possible that some people reading my comment would have a 4K screen. Now besides the joke, tell me that you think that a 1080p screen isn't enough for a 5,7 inch phone. And tell me that you'd rather have a higher pixel density screen rather than more battery life.

      Obviously however it may be too hard for you to comprehend that other people have different sense strengths. By the sounds of it, if it isnt how you see it, it must be false, thats a crazy way to look at the world.

                Anonymous, 04 Jan 2017Who cares about VR headsets? Only the minority of people us... moreEverybody cares about VR, it's the next big thing and for a good reason. It gives you a portable 100 inch screen.

                It's not good enough for gaming yet, but it's great for media watching. Watching Netflix on the things blows everything else away, including 4k TVs (that look positively small by comparison).

                  putting a stylus on S8 makes no sense if they are going to release another Note

                    .alpha, 04 Jan 2017What a gimmick. 4K on pentile OLED = QHD LCD. Samsung 4K is... moreNope.

                    4k pentile means 3840x2160x2 subpixels
                    QHD RGB means 2560x1440x3 subpixels

                    So 4k pentile ~ 16 million subpixels
                    QHD RGB ~ 11 million subpixels

                    4k pentile is muuuch sharper than QHD RGB. Get your facts straight. VR would look like a dream there while in QHD it looks likes an a$$

                        What a gimmick. 4K on pentile OLED = QHD LCD. Samsung 4K is just catching up to all those phone using QHD LCD.

                            Julliard, 04 Jan 2017Yes you can tell the difference. Its different for everyone... moreNo, you can't tell the difference. You are tricked by the marketing. That's all. But even if you can tell the difference, the vast majority of people can't, so your argument is irrelevant.

                              And no, the difference is not visible at all.

Afterall, your eyes is not the same as everyone else's. People with poor vision can say it look the same, people with sharp vision can detect the most minute details. The epitome of a perfect display resolution is '3D effect'. Yes, 3D. In the future, display resolution is so pixel-dense that you cannot distinguish between looking into a screen or looking out a window. Afterall, Samsung goal was to built 11K display by 2018.

                                    The diffenence between FHD and QHD is perfectly visible.
                                    (small text looks perfect on QHD, and not perfect on FHD).
                                    i'm not sure whether i'll be able to see difference between QHD and 4K; it's more for VR i think.

                                    you just have to admit your vision is not perfect if you don't distinguish between FHD and QHD. Which could be a good thing as you could buy a less expensive device with FHD screen. For me, FHD is an absolute showstopper.

                                        I heard it comes with a new feature called "Optimized Battery Thermal Sensor".
                                        What could possibly go wrong with that
