1080 Vs 720

[htowngator]

I actually had the same feelings yesterday and I own a s3. You could tell it was nicer but I never thought s3 had a bad screen. I guess it's a personal preference between samoled and lcd.

This is all you need to see.

It seems that amoled does have a color tint to it up close.

Based on that, here's my evaluation:

Sharpness: One > GS4 > Xperia Z > Lumia 920 > GS3 > iP5
Color: One > Xperia Z > iP5 > Lumia 920 > GS4 > GS3.

AMOLED is terrible.

You mean the photographer was terrible in not white balancing the amoled screens with his camera...and you fell for it like a sucker.

This had everything to do with the photographer, and nothin to do with the screens. In real life, the screens are white.

Amoled always has a color hue which is discernable when compared to a screen that actually doesn't (I.e. Lcd) but that doesn't mean it's bad. I have the s3 and the color hue is green.

SAmoleds definitely have a hue to them. Yes, they're white enough to be called white, but there is still a hue there. (I own a galaxy nexus..)

Nice read, sadly they don't go into what is being displayed above.
So your whites on your S3 is this green? Dude, you need to return it.

So the photographer was supposed to white balance it to change the colors so they would look better? Wth, I thought this was supposed to be a fair and objective test.

Oh, and my eyes are also faulty? After all, I've seen an AMOLED screen in person.

You appear to know little about digital imaging.

I don't think you understand what they said. There is a hue but it's only discernable on certain situations vs other devices. It's not a big deal to me but saying it is not true white reproduction is not a lie.

It uses a green sub pixel in rgb which adds to the hue.

Oh, I know. But your whites are not that green as in the above pics. In fact that link provided does talk about it a drop. You'll also notice that in almost every case that shows white, it wasn't dark green. I wish my pc was up and running, as my nephew is here with his greenless S3. The whites are nothing like the original pic.

I'm not sure if you really understand at this point. They ALL have it due to how it was engineered. It's not like the screen is glowing green or anything, but there is a color difference due to the sub-pixel green in RGB. It is just how they did AMOLED vs what Apple (samsung, really) and HTC are doing with LCD using true RGB with no color subpixel.

I remember using Chrome for the first time on my GNex, and wondering if I could get used to the "whites" being "blue".

So far yes, but the HTC One screen is beautiful in person - and yes, the whites appeared to me to be quite accurate.

Yep, the whites on almost all of Sammy's OLED screens are bluish, not green like the picks above. It is for this reason why I didn't get the S2 or the S3.

Now I did briefly use an S4 by shear luck. I specifically looked for the bluish tint on white websites. It was there, but so faint that I could be just thinking it was there. Green? Lol, not unless you needed a microscope to pixel peep. Green like the photos above? Do I really have to say?

Seriously, turn off auto brightness on the Samsung. There is no green tint at all on my SG3, i'm sorry but that picture is a joke. I own a SG3 and the screen is sweet, very nice screen no green tint for me.

 

[htowngator]

Dude you guys just do not understand what we are trying to tell you. There is not an obviously green tint it is only under very specific circumstances. It is not a deal breaker but it is something that comes along with that type of screen technology. Enough of the inferiority complex.

I found out later it was on power save. It was really dim I did not think to turn it off.

Depends on what you're doing, but certainly for video there will be no discernible difference.
