    Its faster cost less have more ram, bigger battery better screen better many things.
    Supports memory card etc.
    Its a lot better device for 1/4 price of a lot worse apple brand.

      Incidentally, micro-LED isn't LCD, it's essentially the same as current OLED technology except the organic 'O' is now an inorganic compound so it doesn't suffer from degradation and can be run brighter.

Is it better? Could be (questionable at least), but in this article you're commenting into, it's just a moot.

The only problem with LCD is that their backlight is always on, more power and greyish blacks. IF mini-LED and micro-LED could make the backlight finer and locally dimmed (as it should, mini-led without local dimming defeats its main purpose). This would mean that a top of the line LCD with micro or mini led can be equal, if not better, to top of the line OLEDs in terms of deep blacks and power consumption without the problem associated with organic material degradation and automatic brightness limiter (ABL) from the OLED.

              Silver 001, 30 Sep 2019Is the risk of burn in that high on oleds ? I have the s8 a... moreImage retention is temporary. Burn-in is permanent and inevitable. Inevitable in a sense that the Organic layer will always degrade faster. What these mini-led and micro-leds aim were to remove the organic part and replace it with individual smaller LEDs.

                Love the Community, 30 Sep 2019What type of LEDs that LG uses for their "transparent" Sign... moreAnd horrible contrast. :)

                  "by the end of next year"
                  I have a brilliant idea: the product by the end of the next year is going to be much better than whatever they will have this year, whatever they have now, so lets wait and buy nothing till that point! That will definitely not affect a company as big as Apple and we'll save some money to buy the $1999 iPad!

                      Well a person who knowingly ruins everyone's experience on a website by posting the same lies on all articles and not apologising for it is the definition of a troll.

                            Anonymous, 30 Sep 2019Lol Samsung still better. Apple cant even make screen!It's true when it comes down to it, Samsung makes a majority of the parts in an iPhone, Samsung is a more diverse company who makes everything while Apple makes some phones and tablet. Samsung has a weapons division making weapons. Apple is nothing next to Samsung.

                              Man had Iphone 6 in 2014 when got new and sold it after 3 months because it was like pre released phone with tons of prebulescent bugs errors and mistakes.
                              I am not interested in china made phones for 1500 which real value is maybe 300 bucks.

                              iTunes has been discontinued. Connecting an apple device to a PC shows up as a storage device. this stands for only new phones older models still needs Itunes. And even with update their battery is draining pretty fast.

                              iPads NEVER shipped with 5W charger! This is a pure lie. Like Iphones 11 have 5W charger in the box confirmed by Zack Nelson from Jerry Rig Everything.

                              iPads do not suffer from throttling and they are as fast as an average i7! It's simple physics, big area of heat conductive material. Even apple called a throttling feature Ipads and Iphones throttle as well. They barely can run several apps on a same time. Othervise device is sluggish and laggs a lot.

                              They DO come with 6GB of ram and they DO have by far the best tablet OS. Android dropped tablet OS!. Yes the Ipad Air pro 12 came with 6GB of ram but cost over a 1500 for same price i can buy 5 tablets from Huawei with same specs and ram.
                              In other words for 10 apple devices i get enough Huawei MediaPad M6 Turbo 8.4 so the every boy and girl in the college can have their own for using it in a school.

                              Every single thing you said is wrong. The facts are there. You are the biggest clown of this site and you give android users a bad name.
                              You can argue about android vs iOS phones but not about tablets. This is only your opinion and noone else apart you and apple sheeps and fanboys will agree with you. You know as muchh as i that i am right but you will do everything to protect that fake brand made in china by china assemblers for 2 euros per hour just to keep the price as low as apple can give which is still 3 times higher compared to same specced android device.
                              At least other brands dont obey chinese working laws like apple did this year.
                              If i were Xiu chinese president for avoiding or detouring chinese working laws i would send apple to the courts with a such high sum to pay that every chinese assembler working for apple could have such big refund they can buy even several floor high mansion a brand new bugatti chiron and a 2 months long hollidays in a 5 star hotel anywhere in the world.

                              The device you compared the ipad to is a useless toy that nobody ever bought. They give them away for free when you switch gas suppliers. No please do your research (see the specs of ipads o gmsarena) and apologise for ALL the lies you post.
                              And your last words are complete joke where you had nothing clever t say so we all expected such blabbing.

                                  Every apple device doesnt work without bloatware like Itunes.
                                  I connect android device to computer and is ready for anything.
                                  I connect apple device and nothing happens.

                                  Screen is too small, os is not optimised for tablet use, significantly worse speakers (and fewer than ipad), not even close to the performance of the a12x, looks tacky, and generally is a much inferior tablet. No wonder nobody heard about it before.

                                  8,4 inch is great enough, Even iphones barely have 128GB disk space and not 640GB. Also no apple have 6GB ram they barely working on 1-22GB and present line of apple devices had to have 4 t not lag.
                                  by the way bionic CPU is known for throttling which apple calls a feature and add it to even new devices just to prevent fast battery degrading for what is apple well known because they like to give used batteries to even new devices which were famous for.
                                  And they mostly comes with 5W laughable charger in the box which is rather funny so your statement defending this fake brand is also very funny and laughable.

                                        They are not skipping OLED at all. Mini-LED display is still back-lit LCD display. It's just that there are a lot more a lot smaller LED back-lights.
