Telephone, 28 Apr 2020Dithering uses software algorithm to simulate a desired col... moreExacly.
Another part is that, you can achive some colors by "flashing sub-sub pixels by diferent
frequency". If you look on VA display under microscope (I do that) and pause signal you will see that (some VA panels etc Sony XG95 have additional square subpixels above normal subpixels) subpixels are flashing with diferent frequency to achive anothers colors. Example: when you will flashing blue color then this color is less bright and you can achive another color by mixing this with another color.
The same you will see on plasma panels (that can do 12-bit). Hitachi and Pioneer have many patents about this.
Sony F65 is first camera that have diamond shape Bayer RGB (with additional Green subpixel - twice pixels like normal 4K) and then Samsung make something similar in OLED displays.

    Anonymous, 28 Apr 2020too much confusion bro! higher refresh rate, higher resolu... moreMore megapixels doesn't mean better.
    8K recording isn't better than 4k recording.

    It depends on your use case. You cant have fast auto focus if your computing that much details, hence the huge crop in Samsung's sensor when recording, the lost of stabilisation and more.

    Sony's doing the camera correctly with larger pixels 2 microns compared 1.8 on S20+ and about 10% more light with the lower F stop.

      Anonymous, 28 Apr 2020too much confusion bro! higher refresh rate, higher resolu... moreHigh refresh rate: Not everyone needs it, 60hz is enough
      High resolution: Its already one of the top, behind Z5 XZP XZ2P
      High brightness: current OLED material limit brightness, more voltage = brighter but burns out quicker
      Color accuracy: It's good, we are not photo editing, it doesn't need to be perfect
      RAM: This is not a desktop. Its a smartphone. Anything over 8gb is a waste of money. (what's the point if all of it is not going to be used?)(some flagships have LPDDR4X, inferior to LPDDR5)
      Megapixel: Too much MP = slower. IMX557 has a larger pixel size = more light
      Charger: Limited to prolong battery life, its already fast enough

      It's a good phone
      I just care about the experience, specs are just numbers anyways. You never know until you try one. You like it, you get it. You don't, then don't.

        Telephone, 28 Apr 2020Has anyone heard of downloading more RAM? ... moretoo much confusion bro!
        higher refresh rate, higher resolution, higher brightness,higher contrast meaning better display! much easier to understand than color accuracy therefore sony phones are crap. added with less ram, less megapixel camera,slower charge!what else? anyway RIP SONY

        haha sony should've just sell more gimmicks to become more mainstream. who still want high quality products in these day? no one, everyone just want the hype

          But here's the interesting part. PAINT
          When you mix different pigments at different ratios, you get a different shade.

          Lets say you have red and yellow paint. You mix them to make orange. Now put the orange under a microscope and see that there is no orange pigment, There was never an orange pigment. All you will see is red and yellow pigment particles. Dithering is the digital version of mixing paint. It makes sense right. (and yes, this wouldn't be necessary if the screen supported it in the first place)

            YogiBear83, 28 Apr 2020Do you know whats mean dithering (Dither)? U can achive 14-... moreDithering uses software algorithm to simulate a desired color.

            Here is an example of different dithering algorithms.

            Sony has proprietary algorithms for X1 engine.

                    Anonymous, 27 Apr 2020" The cameras of Sony are honest, photos are not fake" ... ... moreBut its true. On XZ3 photos are a little bit overexposed (for better dynamic) but I take Album Editor and after 5 second with "curves" I can make photo that looks much better - better contrast and exposure.

                      Smithravi, 26 Apr 2020Ok, let's talk about OP 8 Pro. 1070 Euros instead of 1070 d... moreHey confused guy, Sony already has the 4k panel with 120hz display. They just need to unlock it so higher refresh rate users can use 120hz combined with 1080p or 2k and ppl like you can use 4K at 60hz. Ppl who want 4k screen won't be losing out on anything and ppl who want high refresh rate won't be losing out on anything either. If you can't distinguish between 120hz and 60hz experience, that's your problem. Plenty of others can. 

                      WHY DO YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH BOTH TYPE OF USERS BEING SATISFIED? 
                      Since the panel remains the same and so does the price. 

                      When did I say 10bit is 16M colors?
                      I was replying to the guy(Lqu) who was bragging on every page about Sony Xperia 1 having 10bit display when in reality it's not true 10 bit as it outputs 16M color.
                      Xperia 1 II & Find X2 pro on the other hand have true 10 bit display.

                                      B&H added Xperia 1II. There is no price and no shipping date. But every angle of the phone is shown. Check it out!

                                      I've noticed that the placement of the antennas are the same as Xperia 1.

                                        before I had 16:9 6inch and 6.5inch
                                        6inch was good, but 6.5inch 16:9 was way too wide.
                                        21:9 6.5inch is really nice in the hands.
                                        Also something cool the 21:9 aspect ratio can do.

                                        a full 16:9 video with chat, I think it fits really well.
