Will apps look horribly distorted on a 720p screen?

I think 720p will be a standard screen resolution for apps in the next year. It's a very common resolution outside of phones now and I think it will be the resolution of most high end phones in 2012.

The reason that qHD isn't really supported so far, as it's kind of a mash between WVGA and HD. Only a few devices supported it and it is a pretty awkward resolution.

I remember when the Droid first came out there were similar problems due to it being the frist 854x480 phone. Apps just looked blurry until they were all updated. I'm not really concerned, it will probably be the same way.

There is a big difference in screen scaling now compared to when qHD was released. Odds are it won't be as bad, you'll probably see about 50% of the apps come up as blurry though,
