That's what they said about 1080p phones. "We don't need that resolution on such a small screen." Bologna.

720p and lower resolution screens needs to die a quick death. 1080p resolution is perfect for any screen size and you don't need to go higher than that.
Sorry I meant just phones. Tablets can have 1440p and higher screens.On one of my tablets I can see pixels on its 1080p screen. I can assure that 1080p is not high enough.

I can definitely tell that my Note 4's screen is sharper than the Note 3's. The Note 3's screen is great. The Note 4's is mind-boggling razor sharp.

That may primarily be because of the fact that the Note 3 had a big screen coupled with 1080p, giving it a significantly less PPI count than competition, it had less than 400.
And the Note 4 has a 500+ PPI display, while Apple may have people believe you can't see above 326, you can.
If you had a smaller device from 2013, like a Nexus 5 the PPI difference would have been smaller.
Buuut....QHD displays are indeed useful for phablets.
So is the new fad toward 2k and 4k displays on smartphones an actually useful feature people want in smartphones, or are OEMs just desperate to find something, ANYTHING, to gain leverage in the spec wars? Can anyone REALLY tell the difference between 1920 x 1080 and 2560 x 1440 on a 5-inch screen? Or does 1440p on such a small screen do nothing but drain the battery faster?
My Galaxy S3 "only" has a 720p screen at 316 ppi and my Nexus 7 "only" has a 1920 x 1200 display at 323 ppi. I seriously cant see any pixels on either device. I think a high res display would only make a difference on a screen larger than 8 inches. But even then, I used to be disappointed that the Nexus 9 "only" has a 2048 x 1536 display (288 ppi) but when I held an N9 in person the screen looked great. So why do we need phones with 2560 x 1440 displays?
I assume a thread like this has already been posted before, so sorry if that's the case.

4Kscreen ,it sounds very amazing ,but can hardware support it ?I believe that 2K screen is so bright.
