How do you score more than 100% for color accuracy?
It's either 100% or less.... kind of like saying this full moon is more full than the last full moon.

          They just have to find a more fancy word to describe every new paid review to make it more perfect that previous "perfect"

            DisplayMate is a same joke as DxOMark, everyone knows OnePlus pays them to get these ratings. The only one you can trust are independent reviewers, but since the display will be obviously pretty much as good as the next thing, you won't receive these kind of quotes from them.

              The 110" microLED tv from Samsung is expected to cost $150.000.

              Simple panel with 480p resolution used to create the wall costs $15.000.
              This is 3x the price of a high end oled tv from LG or Sony.

                For tech people, it is great. But for the average consumers, they wouldn't notice it much.

                1. 10 bit vs 8 bit
                2. 1600 nits vs 800 nits
                3. Delta and JNCD screen colour of below 3
                4. OLED and LCD
                5. Contrast ratio, 5 000 000 : 1 and 2 000 000 : 1
                6. And sometimes, they can't even tell 120hz and 60hz
                7. Touch sampling rate above 120hz are very less noticeable


                Again, great for tech people and professionals. But not so for average consumers

                  You do not find any difference between units.
                  It is not rare to see more than one supplier, people never notice difference between units using screen from different suppliers.

Heck, we see a lot of smartphones brands also use Samsung-made screen panel as well, but they didn't show the exact same screen colour. It's the same story with smartphone camera sensors. Anyone can use the same 48MP or 64MP Sony or Samsung Quad Bayer camera sensor, but they won't show the same photo quality because of the difference with the software algorithm.

                            And the Oscar goes to............

                            "A State-of-the-Art Curved Screen Flexible OLED display panel from SAMSUNG Display that is manufactured on a flexible plastic substrate so that it can bend around corners on both sides of the phone to provide two curved Edge Display areas that can be viewed and controlled from both the front or the sides. While the OLED display itself is flexible, the screen remains rigid under an outer hard cover glass."

                            Samsung!!!! That is the one that designed and manufactured that display not OnePlus that resell it to you mounted in their phones.

                            It's very fun watch the effort to not mention Samsung and make the Samsung display a sell reason like if OnePlus did the I+D and manufactured it LOL. Congrats to Samsung for their displays not OnePlus. Anyways i prefer in AMOLED the technology with white leds that LG use as that one has a longer life time being an organic one.

                            I hope microled arrives soon to phones as it's the technology y prefer for displays panels.
