Vegetaholic, 15 Aug 2018You mean Omnia HD? Thanks, even better exampleYes. Swipe and auto correct. Some of the most horrendous helpful features. Especially since they actually only seem to get worse with time. Not better.
But yes my Omnia HD. And if course it was used to watch many movies and videos. Also the music visualizer.
Lots of photos too.

There is basically no difference if you go from 720p or 4k, sharpness will not change, screens are to small to notice. Only use is VR. Samsung already very well establised in VR, Sony does nothing in VR and putting this 4k screen just for bragging rights. Unfortunately modern cpu and gpu it is not there yet to offer 4k screens for VR on Mobile. Once processing power will in prove a bet Samsung will start to put 4k screens in phones just for crisp VR purposes.

          Anonymous, 15 Aug 2018Sorry if you didn't realize but this is reality. Also sorry... moreTotally not . You know your reality could be illusion for rest of the world .

            Nothing new, been using Samsung amoled for years and since galaxy S6 it's just looks poor feast and quality for your eyes, there is no match for Samsung amoled, haven't seen any screen who can come close except obviously the ones with Samsung panels like iPhone X. And trolls about burns ins and some other nonsense can shut up now. My galaxy s4 still alive, no burn ins or any screen degradation, as bright and colourful as first day and it is already counting it's 6 birthday. AMOLED is a king!

              laertes, 15 Aug 2018Yeah, I guess you're right. Intentional click-baity journalism...So any logical point I just made doesn't count.
              Only the words from the one that literally trashes every page that is not praising Sony.
              That makes sense.
              What part of they constantly say of displays we have tested, to my knowledge people have to go to them for the testing and released results... Aka its not a random free hobby, and that if anyone knows anything about the related tech it's clearly true don't add up or count for anything??

                  Just as that YouTube certified devices info a few days ago, that most journalists conveyed to the public by a title/banner:
                  "Note9 tops the list of best YouTube certified devices"
                  which was just...false promotional presentation.

                  Just like this.

Even though it's clearly true. It would be nice if they did some others for comparison. Though I also think that's partially dependent on others going to them for it. But I think in that regard they don't want to because they know they will fall short wasting time and money possibly.

All shout "best display ever" but no one ever bothers to write that it's only the best Samsung/Apple display (according to that source [displaymate]). That's just lazy journalism...

                          What other display can boast these numbers or claims?? By any tests on any device at any site??

                            Anonymous, 15 Aug 2018Yes but if you know anything at all about it then you can s... moreOn what basis? As they never compare to anything else...

                            To make it clear: I do not doubt that Samsung makes fantastic displays. But it's hard to justify the claim "best display ever" when they only test a small subset of displays.

                              laertes, 15 Aug 2018Am I blind or does Displaymate just test Samsung and Apple ... moreYes but if you know anything at all about it then you can still clearly put two and two together that indeed it is better overall than any other display.

                                Am I blind or does Displaymate just test Samsung and Apple devices? So, it's the best of all Samsung displays. Good for them that the newer device is not worse than the older ones...

                                  Just went to the display mate website.

                                  I honestly thought i went in a time machine back to 1999.

                                    In the end... Results are it's the best and for a 3rd time now I dare you to prove otherwise....
                                    Unless in your own way you are saying in between the lines you know it's true you just don't like how there is not more done to compare it. If that's case I will appologize

                                      Why don't test Samsung device after 1000 hrs' use? Why is distortion of edge which is over 5% of screen ignored?

                                      When talking image capturing device, distortion is a key factor but when it comes to phone, nobody cares about display. Is this means that mobile users are just idiots who even don't know what are most important things for display?

                                      Is a display that is unable to replay with correct shape a good display? I think it is the worst. Like a painter who even can't draw a line, can we call him a master?

                                        Anonymous, 15 Aug 2018Of course you say that. However if this was a Sony device i... moreStopy your fboyism rant/fight.

                                        You obviously realize it too, but somehow try to justify it by dragging Sony into the discussion...
