iPhone 4′s retina display better than AMOLED? Not really, says Samsung

Tuesday 17 August 2010 @ 7:12 pm

While many expected the iPhone has a 4 to AMOLED screen, obviously it does not. Instead, Apple developed its own technology (from IPS – initially developed by Hitachi) and proudly announced a new type of screen, screen called the retina.

The iPhone screen is 3.5 inches retina 4 and 960 x 640 pixels (326 ppi) – the highest resolution you'll get a smart phone today.

When Steve Jobs introduced the new screen, which he said is "much better than the OLED screens." Samsung, the world's largest manufacturer of OLED screens, disagrees. A Samsung spokesman told The Korea Herald:

"Structurally, the IPS LCD technology can not put up with AMOLED screen technology."

The Korean company spokesman said further that the AMOLED technology is better than the IPS when it comes to color reproduction, contrast ratio, response time and viewing angle. The spokesman forgot to mention the visibility OLED displays' poor sunlight – from this point of view, the screen of Steve Jobs retina is probably better.

However, Samsung has recently developed Super AMOLED screens (included in the Wave Samsung and Samsung GalaxyS), which have 80% less reflection of sunlight compared with AMOLED screens – so the issue of sunlight exposure appears to be resolved.

iPhone 4s retina display better than AMOLED? Not really, says Samsung

One of the main disadvantages of the display of the retina Apple (with its super high resolution) is that "increases the power consumption by 30 percent, so the final Super AMOLED screens may actually be better. But I do not know for sure until someone gets an iPhone and a Samsung Wave 4 Compare / S Galaxy and the next performance of his show.

The news comes just days after Apple started sending IPADE international markets (including Canada, Britain, Germany and Japan).

Obviously, Steve Jobs had used the word "magic" again when talking about the IPADE:

"Customers around the world experience the magic of IPADE, and seem to be loving it as much as us."

Mr. Jobs's definition of "magic" is quite distorted, and I think IPADE is as magical as the fake David Blaine is. It's fun, sure, but magic? Come on. Of course, this is for public relations, but sometimes was a little too far.

IPADE is currently available in the U.S. from $ 499 (the 16GB, 3G-less version), but a little more expensive in Europe. It will be released in most countries beginning in July.
