Bebe Rexha, 30 Jun 2017JDI is Sony's semi-owned display company. Of course, Sony ... moreYeah, Samsung only wins in quantity, not quality.

    Vegetaholic, 17 Jul 2017No wonder, their amoleds beyond any competitionSamsung's AMOLEDs are not beyond Sharp and JDI in technology lol, they just have much larger production capacity.

        KamAbdi, 30 Jun 2017True and in fact JDI is buying JOLED's shares this year so ... moreYep, and I'm excited to finally see Sony/Panasonic OLED tech hit the market, that excites me a lot more than this Samsung/LG OLED bogus.

            A cup of coffee and good joke like this to start my day.

              AnonD-154321, 30 Jun 2017I will never buy a phone if I cannot remove the battery...... moreWell that's you my friend!!
              But, if you ask me, I'll tell you that removal battery is ridiculous and sealed batteries are better because you have a quick charge and a wireless charge from Samsung ( though it isn't true wireless). So, at the end of the day it's a matter of preferences.

                I will never buy a phone if I cannot remove the battery...sure, I will look at these new sexy looking slabs ...but if the battery is non removable then there is no reason for me to buy ...I am used to external battery charging...that is never going to change...I also like to keep spare batteries...so that I am never out of power. After the Galaxy Note 4 Samsung has denied me a phone with an instantly removable battery and now I am used to not buying a new phone each year...I never wanted a Note 5 nor did I want the Note 7. Both of these phones denied me that removable battery and so the Note 8 will come and it can pass me by if it does not have an instantly removable battery....it is a simple matter to just look for a few moments and download a pdf of the user manual.
                Yes, it would have been nice to buy a new phone but the Note 4 is still good for me and as a spare I also use my trusty Note 3....both phones allow me to instantly remove and charge my batteries in a properity external battery charger....nothing beats that ....never will....
                So Note 8 can be as successful as it will but I will happily look and walk on by....

                  NotAFanboyy, 30 Jun 2017JDI has much better OLED technology than Samsung, hoping th... moreTrue and in fact JDI is buying JOLED's shares this year so they will make far better OLEDs than Samsung

                      Bebe Rexha, 30 Jun 2017In Basic Mode? Yeah in a different mode. Apple iPhones are... moreBut you can choose your mode based on your preferences, everybody doesn't have the same tastes, we aren't clones.

                          Bebe Rexha, 30 Jun 2017By how well the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus screens are accurately ... moreIphones now use LCD screens, not OLED screens. Apple may be able to provide accurately calibrated OLED screens out of the box, or they may follow Samsung in providing vibrant colours instead.

                            If LG, Apple, and Sony hops to the OLED game, Samsung will be dethroned.
                            Remember back in 2015 where the BlackBerry Priv's Samsung-made AMOLED display was actually more accurate with whites than the Note 5? Of course no one remembered, because it will be forgotten if it's not Samsung or Apple.

                            And if you believe that OLED can't be beaten, then sorry to disappoint you by telling you are wrong.
                            Sony has their propietary display technology named "CLEDIS" or Crystal LED Integrated Structure.
                            This tech costs nearly 5x less of any counterpart sized OLED panel yet offers just almost the same experience. With this, flagships can have a perfect display without costing too much.

                            The pixels are microscopic in size, and they don't use backlight. Again, NO BACKLIGHT, which means the pixels can turn themselves on and off by themselves, offering true blacks just like OLEDs, but the thing is that it uses a darker blackplane when displaying blacks, thus making blacks look deeper than OLEDs when both are being lit up on the panels.

                            While OLEDs have the efficiency on blacks, IPS LCDs still have the efficiency of whites, but not both worlds - CLEDIS is the answer. LEDs consume less power than OLEDs so it can offer supreme battery life.
                            A 40lux bright LED consumes about 3x less that of a counterpart OLED.

                            And finally, there goes viewing angles.
                            Nope, OLEDs don't have perfect viewing angles.
                            They shift to a green hue when slightly tilted, which doesn't happen on IPS LCDs.
                            This thing can offer full 180° viewing angle, so what else can I say?

                            This display technology is highly revolutionary and OLEDs simply don't have any advantages over this.

                              Anonymous, 30 Jun 2017Apple calibrate their screens individually, other companies... moreAnand is literally in Apple's paycheck. They made it official a couple years ago, but it has been obvious that their "reviews" has been paid for by Apple for more than ten years. Skewing all their in depth reviews to focus on what Apple wanted them to focus on. The site is a scam.

                                Linas, 30 Jun 2017Said who.. where is your sources? JDI OLED will be a white color filtered OLED bulbs and as a result, will be less prone to burn in and can offer a wider color gamut that will allow for a never-seen-before HDR experience.

                                Sources are in Google

                                  Of course, Sony will always be the first to get the best display technologies in the world.

                                    Apple iPhones are already calibrated accurately out of the box.

                                      Anonymous, 30 Jun 2017lol on what basis are you making that claim?By how well the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus screens are accurately calibrated out of the box.

                                        yoyo guy, 30 Jun 2017You must be joking right? :DI'd love to. But Apple has proven my jokes to be true after all.

                                        I predicted the 3D Touch to not be a huge selling point of iPhones and treated it as a joke. Turns out to be a right call
