seriously, show us.

QHD has NOTHING to do with colors that POP. By the way, I am more than willing to take a picture of my Sensation and G2X next to each other. Sensation display blows it away in almost every aspect. Only aspect I like more about the G2X is it's blacks look better.

They say the HTC Sensation has 2 different companies creating screens for them so maybe the one you have isn't from Sharp which is said to be the better one,the thread about the two different screen manufacturers may have some answers for you

You again??? The great android developer who posted that thread the other day that was barely in english about comparing the sensation to the G2x. Didnt you say something very similar to this thread in that thread Mr. Developer? It seems like you are the one trolling because this is the 2nd thread you have created where you say the g2x is superior. So sell your sensation, keep the g2x and stop *****ing to us about it. and BTW, I do happen to own both the G2X and the Sensation. But seriously dude, this is the second thread you have created that I know of where you say something very similar comparing the sensation to the g2x. I love both devices but I do lean more to the sensation side.

True but I think what I see about the nova display on the G2x is the 700 nit of brightness witch the highest of everything on the market iPhone 4 is 400 nit GS2 is 374 nits to give you a ideal

The sensation has a qHD screen because its has 960x540 pixels crammed in the screen. Similarly the galaxy s2 and g2x and similar devices have a wvga screen which is 800x480 pixels. Its not a representation of screen quality but more of how clear the text appears. The galaxy s2 has a far superior screen because it has a super amoled plus screen even though its not qHD. The sensation has a s-lcd screen (i think) so the colours are not as rich but theyre still good. I dont know what the g2x's screen looks like so i cant comment on that however i think maybe you should do some research before posting

So you care more about brightness than anything else on a display? If so then stick with the G2X but other than being bright, it's really not that good of a display. Engadget said it's like a mediocre LCD and that LG skimped on this IPS panel.

That says a lot to the Sensation display if the G2X display is supposed to be brighter but the Sensation still performs better in direct sunlight. Want to see a video or pictures? I am on a video roll today!!!

You don't even know the difference between screen resolution and screen brightness but still you open a thread comparing screens? XDA forums are not Google search! If you search and can't find what you wan't then post. Those are the freaking rules! Someone must do something about Sensation's forums!

You're an idiot. The brightness of the screen has zero to do with the *type* of screen. qHD refers to resolution, not a technology. Also, the Sensation's display is MUCH nicer than the one on the G2x. Are you sure you didn't forget to pull the plastic off of the screen?
Oh and the G2x has an H-IPS LCD, *NOT* a NOVA panel.

OP is complaining about something he doesnt understand.

I dont belong on XDA? hahah I at least know what I'm talking about. you clearly dont have a clue about anything. You claimed to be a dev but yet you make the noobiest noob statements. Just look at the threads you started. All very noobish yet you claim to be an android developer. All I'm doing is calling you out on it because I'm a developer and dont want other noobs to associate xda developers with ignorant people like you claming to be a developer, yet clearly not knowing much at all.
Your other thread was not only closed but completely deleted. So what do you do? start another thread saying the same crap

Every time I read one of the posts by this guy I want to throw up.
His English, grammar and sentence structure (or lack thereof) is not even on par with that of my friend's 10 year old nephew.
And if English is not your first language, use Google Translate or something. That should spit out better results than what you are coming up with on your own.

Reviewers are never happy. It is a freaking sweet, sweet, phone. Faster than droid bionic and slightly slower than SII.

1. It hasn't been announced or released yet, as stated above.
2. It's going to be available for multiple carriers, so processors/GPUs/radios will vary (ex: The SGS-II on T-Mobile has the OMAP, rather than Exynos because the Exynos SOC is incompatible with T-Mobiles 42Mbps HSPA+ modem).
3. See #1
Any "details" at this point are pure speculation until tonight's announcement.

The Prime's biggest selling point is not actually the hardware, but the software(for once).
Let's just hope the AMOLED HD isn't a letdown. I heard it's going to be pentile, and we all know how ****ty that looks(Bionic)

after watching the broadcast i think that ICS is cool but the phone is just basic run of the mill crap other than the screen and the ram... i suspect that the htc vigor will be a better phone and will have less flaws than the samsung devices

mannnnn at least i better see an 8mp cam in there since we might not see the 1.5ghz.

It's 5mp, but mp aren't everything. The camera is supposedly extremely good, much better than the Droid Charge.

Pentile at 720p (Galaxy Nexus) is not going to be as noticeable as pentile at qHD (Droid Bionic).
Honestly, even with my relatively extreme far-sightedness and high visual acuity (if I sit closer than the halfway mark in a digital theater, I can clearly see the individual pixels on screen), the pentile SAMOLED screens don't bother me one bit. I could see it on my Fascinate, but it wasn't a problem for me.

Actually I think the charge's biggest flaw is the RAM. Second would be the outdated piece of crap launcher, but it would still run smoothly with more RAM.

It could certainly use a bit more RAM. 512MB available would be great. At least we got 45MB more available as of EP1W.
The launcher doesn't bother me much. I don't really like any of the manufacturer's launcers, so that's the first thing I replace.

I agree 100% that megapixels don't mean much in a camera phone but the Charge has a fantastic camera (as far as phones go), I doubt it will be "much better than the Droid Charge"

Not +, just SAMOLED HD. The plus refers to the subpixel arrangement. + is standard RGB, where the regular is pentile.
In this case, I think most people will barely notice the pentile, if at all with the 720p screen (316ppi, just short of iPhone's).

Pentile will always look different than a screen using a normal sub-pixel layout, and it will always bother some people.

Indeed, there is always going to be a contingent that will ***** about it constantly.

Just being pure google.... I'm going to probably surf craigslist once its released.

Will the Surface be too big?

I love the size of my Xoom, think its just the right size, especially as I have been playing about with the Samsung XE700, its a nice quick device but being i5 based its fan is annoying and with an 11.6" screen its too big to carry around.
The Surface while coming in 2 flavours (ARM/x86) has a 10.6" screen apparently so might just be a bit too large..

I would actually be happier if it had a 12 or 13" screen

Well 10.1 < 10.6 < 11.6.

No, I think it will be a good size, however like some of the others I'd like to see a larger screen tablet.

maybe a 12mp camera??

Cant wait to see what it does. For me the bigger the screen the better. Cause i really dont mind having it in my laptop bag or in my hand all the time. Used to run a weird european rom that made me have the phone app on my galaxy tab 7". Now with the Note its the perfect size. But it could have the specs of the S3 i would enjoy the speed.

Phone size will be the same, screen size will be increased. It is obvious, hardware buttons will be gone, replaced with soft onscreen buttons. So more space for fullscreen videos, browser, etc... i hope the resolution is also increased and better screen manufacturing. Better camera with optic stabilization would be awesome! Probably DAC sound chip is replaced, from s3 or new, because current from s2 is piece of ****

[Q] anyone know about Android 4.0 Phone "Stratos"??

Hi all,
Was browsing around looking at new phones and came across this one:
http://www.chinavasion.com/china/wh...e_Stratos_-_5.3_Inch_1GHz_Dual_Core_Dual_SIM/
Does anyone out there know anything about it/ anyone bought it?
It looks like a great phone, but my main concern is being able to root it after I get it since I see it has the new MT6577, hence my question to all you experts out there :good:

I've never used this phone, but its 800x480 resolution on a 5.3 inch display would make it look horribly pixelated and horrendous
(That's 176 dpi, which is lower than the Optimus One series, which are 3.2 inch screens at 320x480 and 180 dpi)

No problem. Usually, chinese phone manufacterers like to cut corners on the display resolution. Keep that in mind when buying phones from them.

Yeah, that's on a 4 inch screen which makes 800x480 perfectly fine (the original galaxy s had this res on a 4 incher) but the product OP is deciding is a whopping 5.3 inches with 800x480

Right. Display sharpness is subjective. Just don't spend too much time with any higher res screen.
