AMOLED, or SLCD..

Here's a cool screen shot of what's to come for those who get a new Inc by the end of the month.

Sending from my phone makes the photo smaller, I can repost later.

Oooh! Where'd you snap that? Be sure to send it to Kyle or Phil. This is the first "confirmation" that I am aware of that the Dinc will in fact have the SLCD screen. Neither HTC nor Verizon has announced that (HTC only announced for the N1 and Desire -- HTC in fact said in July that they had no plans to put it on the Dinc, as they thought they could keep up with demand using AMOLED).

Nice find!

Edit: does that model number say ADR6300VW3?

I'll see if I can find an email I can send the full sized pic to, took a couple 'cause I felt one was a tad blurry..

Yes, there is a sku change as well..

So if you would order now you would still probably get the Amoled screen? Just wondering because my upgrade is next Wednesday.

 

[rouser20]

Nevermind, now I see that it says if you order around late September. Sorry.

So is that a good or bad thing-sorry for my ignorance..I'm about to order one-should I do it now or wait? I'm not sure of the difference in the screens.

SLCD screens perform better in direct sunlight while looking as nice as AMOLED. That's mostly it.

 

[iflyhi22002]

Interesting..well looks like I'll wait until the end of the month!!

 

[ThatAnonymousGuy]

Oh poop. Now another reason for me to delay purchasing one.

I don't think LCD looks nearly as nice as AMOLED.
It's purely a sacrifice of quality for production quantity on HTC's part.

It's Super LCD, I've seen the new Desire with it and it's definitely not a sacrifice. Just sayin'..

Right now on the site, the phone is a wvga screen. What a rip.

Yes the SLCD is better in direct sunlight. Image quality wise the average person will not be able to tell the difference side by side. However with that being said the SLCD doesn't have as vibrant of colors when compared side by side. But really I don't think you will see a difference with either one that makes one better than the other.

You do know you're fired, right?

Like it's not easy enough for them to find you, but you led them right to you with the last half of your last name showing in the upper left of the pic.

I give you a week tops.

+1 for tipping him off. There's still time for him to cover his tracks since no other site seems to have picked up the story.
-1 for being a d-bag about it.

so in others words a zero , lol, ( +1+ -1 = 0 )

at least it's fixed .. now

I don't understand the motivation behind that post. Give a heads up, unless you're planning to snitch.

Mike, Dave, you guys are alright..

Glad I got AMOLED. Droid 2 has SLCD and it sucks compared to AMOLED.

I interface with my phone 90% inside, and probably 10% outside. The 10% that I'm outside, the screen can be pretty darn hard to see...however the 90% that I'm inside, the screen is gorgeous.

The other 'con' about AMOLED (battery life) no longer really applies with all the super cool kernels floating around out there.
