Hello,
How are you?
So, from what I read, the high resolution screen of the A700 is great. And it is probably wonderful for web browsing.
But since android tablets with this resolution are few and new, I was wondering how is the situation of apps for this screen?
Are there apps optimised for this res?
How do apps like tapatalk, Facebook, ebay, YouTube and such behave?
Any pixelization problems?
Thanks.
Cheers!

Hi guys
Will 800x480 games and apps work on the sensation given it is 960x540.
Thanks

800x480 games work great on my Arc 854x480 screen, it will work on the sensation but with a frame to cover lost space or simply zoomed.
As for wallpapers, Zedge is pretty fast to launch new resolutions.
But hey isn't the Moto Atrix already using this new resolution?
No, right?
So this display only looks beautiful and awesome when reading books, news,... watching 1080p videos? If that'strue then i think i'd go for the 300 because i usually watch 720p videos, which should look good on a 1280x800 screen and i only read books sometimes,
Browsing too, but for 720p videos TF300 should be enough.

so there are no optimized games or apps for this tablet? (even one)
What do you mean by optimised? There are many that look fine
There are some apps for FHD displays, search the Playstore.
Generally text will look better than on lower-resolution screens, textures won't, especially in games.

In my opinion *everything* will look better on the TF700. Besides the resolution, the contrast is WAY better on the TF700.
The difference is noticeable *everywhere* - I especially notice it while web browsing!
I don't know, if I were buying new and could afford it, I'd definately go for the T700 - it's slightly more future-proof at least - seems to me it's just better all of the way around....

Due to the way Android handles its resolution scaling, its not a problem for some apps. Basically, the infinity identifies as a 240dpi device. Any apps that run on both phones and tablets should be covered since the resources would be there for 240dpi phones. Tablet only apps and games would need to be updated, as would apps that don't properly handle doing scaling due to sloppy programming. You can see this in action with the stock Google apps.
And as the question was about the apps stop the blind advertising
PS The game is on! What a great show. So much better than in Beijing.

Well,just to let you know, connectbot makes full use of the display, it has the highest resolution terminal I ahve seen for a while.
Also, Chrome seems to make good use of the display.

Come on.. This is just text-based. See the posts above. The issue is GUI and textures.

Dead Trigger looks great and runs very smooth.
Pocket runs great.

how to tell?
can we easily test the resolution of apps?
Is there a way to take a screen shot and measure pixels, or the ratio of resolution?
After the recent firmware I noticed chrome looked more resolute, finer grained.
Especially google+ icons were smaller.
this is the only HD device so perhaps google android SDK needs to update first to support the screen size?
Perhaps the emulator would support our TF700 screen and other future device?
bottom line, how to measure apps externally for HD?
Hi there,
What processor should I get if I want my tablet to play most of Full HD movies out there, in any codecs? How come a FHD video file can be played flawlessly on a PC with dualcore processor, but cant on a tablet?
Thanx

I'm guessing because of screen resolution. What tablet do you own?

Hi,
Sorry for not being clear, I am going to purchase my 1st tablet, so I need to ask this question
I will likely purchase a tablet with high res screen (approximately FHD).

I can play 1080p 3D video fine on my mk802 which has a single core arm cpu running at 912 mhz using ice cream sandwich.
Maybe better option would be to give an idea of how much you can spend and what sort of uses you want from a tablet (eg gaming) and then people could recommend the best featured tablets that suit your budget?

Hi,
Thank for your suggestion. My main usage is as follows:
Watch 1080p movie in various formats and codec, source is shared via network driver (DLNA or streaming using VLC), output to TV.
A good audio output and screen with 200+ pixel density
Checking email, facebook, read news etc.,
Video Chatting with my family.
Game and other apps (no need for hardware-killer games)
Price as low as possible, of course
I'm looking into getting an external monitor for my TF700. 1920x1200 monitors start at about $100 more than otherwise similar 1080 ones. Will the difference in resolutions be a problem? Does the resolution of the monitor need to match the resolution of the device?
The external resolution will only go to 1080. Used to have crop and scale options before update to jb.

So it wouldn't make sense to buy anything at a higher resolution than that?
Sorry for posting twice in a row, but is there any benefit (or drawback) to using a 24" television as an external display compared to a 24" computer monitor of the same resolution?
With the same resolution, the only difference is really the audio since TVs usually have speakers/tuner and monitors usually don't.
No reason to get anything higher than 1080 unless you are doing something special other than connecting the infinity.

Afternoon all.
Recently got an upgrade and since I wasnt to fussed on the S5 I decided to get a Xperia Z1. .
Bad choice since id gotta used to samsung from S2 owned all S devices. . .so luckily i was given the chance to swap the xperia to a lovely note 3 
I really like it and since the specs dont differ much from the upcoming S5 ( camera slighty better and 2.5 ghz instead of notes 2.3) its a good choice i feel.
What i have noticed is the pixel density is lower from S4 and S5 but i really dont see it the difference in fact the note 3 screen seems better?
Anyway sorry for long intro but when i play HD youtube or even the HD helicopter video included on phone i cant help but think the HD isnt as clear or good as the S4 . .
Could that be the pixel density or something else?
Cheers guys

Well YouTube HD movies are little pixelated, download it and play from any video player.

Youtube hd videos are highly compressed. So quality isnt that great
Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk
HD on Youtube isn't really HD. It's 'close enough to fool everyone who can't tell the difference between 720 and 1080'.
They've compressed the video so tightly it' s become blurry. You don't notice it on an s4 because the screen is much smaller.

The S4 or S5 have the same screen resolution as the note 3 but are considerably smaller in screen size. As the picture is spread out there will be some slight degradation in hd quality but not so noticeable as to be called bad...
