Afterall iPhone’s LED Screens Aren’t Inferior When Compared To Nexus One’s OLED Screens
Posted on 2010 under iPhone Duniya | 1 Comment
Did you know that Apple is still using an age old technology for its iPhone screens, called the LCD screens. Whereas Google’s newly launched smartphone Nexus One’s OLED screens seem to be breathtaking and a brand new technology. Which one do you think looks and feels good? Let me take you to this MobileCrunch’s indeapth comparison between the two. Check out the complete post here:
- Apparently, the Nexus One only uses 16-bit color. You know, the kind of color you had on your PC back around 1998? It has 32 levels each of red and blue, and 64 for green. The iPhone (like most quality mobile LCDs) has 18-bit color with dithering, which allows it to emulate full 24-bit color if you don’t look too closely.
- The display on the iPhone is actually significantly brighter, though its contrast is far worse. This is due to the Nexus One’s OLED nature, which allows blacks to be truly black
- OLED displays, including the Nexus One’s, are still very a young technology. This means there are a lot of kinks to be worked out in hardware, software, and drivers
The fact is, though, that LCD is an end-of-run technology that has been honed to as close to perfection as it’s ever likely to get. LCDs that cost $200 now would have cost thousands just a few years ago.
