For those of you that have seen the newly leaked specs for the note 3, I'm hoping I might be able to get my question answered.
If you look at the specs for the phone from a number of sources now that have posted it, it states the the screen is "Super Amoled MIPI (D-Type)"
After doing some Google searches for that type of screen, all I can seem to find is the super amoled C type which seems to be found on the galaxy s3.
So, does anyone have any idea what the D-Type super amoled screen actually means? And how/if it differs from the S4 screen type?
Thanks

All the newer Nexus S that will be launched won't have the Super Amoled Display like most of ours, will the new displays be better than ours? Or will the original Nexus S reign supreme?

That is a matter of personal preference. The media will say that Super AMOLED is 10 times as good, and most other people will say that too, but Super Clear LCD has it's advantages.
I suggest you read through the Nexus S i9023 Super Clear LCD thread, and see what you think is better!

hi
where can i find this thread?
You can find my thread here. It contains A LOT of comparison pictures, videos and opinions about the two different screens.
Succes!
I want to save for a new phone, i was thinking of getting a Galaxy S ii or Galaxy Nexus. Which is better?
they are the same only nexus has a better screen. (CORRECT ME IF IM WRONG)
why dont you wait for s3 like i do?
i wiil go with nexus
i think "Galaxy Nexus" would be better. u will get a long talk time and better uploading speed here. downloading speed is also good here....
I honestly and personally would get the Galaxy Nexus. The SII seems a bit over rated to me. Also the Galaxy Nexus looks a lot better and looks like something that is fun to use
Galaxy sII

Better in terms of pixel density which results in slightly sharper images. However, the s2 produces better quality images and the contrast and viewing angles are much better

get the nexus .more updates in the future
Galaxy Nexus. Screen is really nice and it is smooth right out of the box.
Samsung also sells an extended battery which adds very minimal bulk. It makes the battery cover flush and adds a little bit of weight which feels nice.
Galaxy sII：O
i think galacy nexus is better, however if i were u i would buy an htc one s
So any way it depends what you use your phone for. If you want high resilousion pics then go with the s2 cause it has the 8mp camera compared to the 5mp camera for the nexus. So if you put the s2's photos on a big screen it will look better than the nexus's photos on the same big screen,but if you look at the nexus's photos on the phone screen it will look better than the s2's photos on the phone screen because the nexus has a higher resliousion screen.
So if you are gona put your photos onto a computer then go with the s2 but if you are gona just look at them on you phone then go with the nexus. The specs of the two phones are the same a think is 1.2 ghz dule core prossor and 202 gpu.
It should be fast enough for daily tasks and gameing alike.

Galaxy Nexus for me. Only because it's an official Google phone, I love to have the updates before everyone else
i think galaxy nexus is better.. it has more modern technology than galaxy S2
i also think that galaxy nexus is better
Well i too would suggest the nexus.. but if you are still saving.. and saving big.. wait for the s3 !!

I think Nexus is better than S2 for performance.But You can try to another Product like HTC or Sony.
My vote is on the Nexus
However if you have that kind of cash why not consider something newer in the market?
I would definately wait for the s3! the official release is this thursday, so it's sooooo close!
there is no official picture but there are some leaked pictures based photos, check out the site of sammobile . com, there are some pics! (I can't post links..)
it supports better specs than s2 or nexus.
If you don't like this and can't wait for 2 days, I would say galaxy s2 because it has such an overwhelming development section with soo many ROMs etcetera.

You should wait just a couple of days..
For sure the one currently with the most up to date software without having to root it and install one of the custom ROMs here would be the Galaxy Nexus. Although it won't be the best device in a couple of days. I suggest you to wait just at least a couple of day before choosing if your one top notch up to date kind of guy since the Galaxy SIII should be announced on May 3rd by Samsung. Also, the HTC One series are getting through many carriers these day until the end of may. The One X is definitively a much better device currently even if it's not available everywhere. Anyhow, if you want it at the end of the day, I would go with the Galaxy Nexus, if you can wait just a couple of days, I would be curious to compare it with the incoming One X or the SIII!
If your into custom rooms, definitely go for the s2 as there is more going on in the development section

I've noticed a few things pop up in various threads about the current\future specs of the One S, after looking on the HTC site another 'change' has caught my eye, not sure if it's correct though.
The one we all seem to know is that it looks like HTC is also going to release the One S with an overclocked (1.7) S3 CPU.
What I've also noticed is that the screen is now also listed as a 720P HD Amoled screen, no mention of Super Amoled (what I have)
Possibly looks like the S3 version will be shipping with the 720P Amoled Screen, be interesting to find out for sure!
Link please!
Higher res screen and older overclocked chip doesnt sound like a good combination but I guess they're trying to make up for the shortage of s4 chips

With this display and processor combo, I can imagine battery life being absolutely terrible. Kind of a bad deal.
Whoever is in charge of HTC's worldwide site needs to be fired. That info (about the 720p screen) is almost certainly incorrect - note that the text right next to it says 960x540 resolution. Also, if they were changing it we would have heard about it by now (like we did with the S3 version, under the "Ville C2" codename - we even got custom Sensation ROMs based on it).
That said, I think a 720p One S would be awesome - think of the pixel density! As long as I could get it with the S4 though...
can anyone tell me is there any mod or some app to change HTC Sensation Display Contrast like Samsung Galaxy S2 ?
actually i really like the vivid colors in the videos of Samsung galaxy s2 in compared to HTC..so i am curious about it..
Tried to search the forum and Google about it but got no answer..
I hope the display contrast is not related to the screen used in the devices..

Super AMOLED Plus (SGII) vs S LCD (Sensation). Different technologies.

This will obviously not be possible. The SGS2 does have a sAMOLED display whereas the HTC sensation has a sLCD. This mainly causes the differences in contrast, color and brightness.
Hi I am new to forums all together but I love reading here and have done some for quite a few years now. Finally decided to join. Hopefully I wont be seen as a nuisance. So I wanted to ask I have an s3 and am thinking of plunking down the cash for a nexus 4. Never actually held one yet.
Nexus 4
Pros for me: always wanted one (wanted note 2 but att past return)
Love googles stock ROMs (running aokp on s3)
Truer whites and higher pixel density (am i gonna notice, i think so)
Love the build. Gorgeous! Especially back
On screen buttons
Faster processor
More one hand friendly (i have pretty big hands though so not much a pro)
No logos
Pros s3: like smart features (one regret of using 4.2 aokp jellybean)
Little more durable
Better front facing and rear
Kind a like amoled except blueish whites
Better speaker
More dev support
Deeper blacks
Battery
Cons: nexus: no lte ( doesn't bother me)
Glass back
Camera
Battery ( hoping mophie make pack for it)
Non removable ( don't intend it to last that long)
No SD ( not much issue with me. Have good signal everywhere) (at&t) mostly use songza and Pandora anyway
Cons s3: I think performance. But maybe i wouldn't notice it
Slower updates (premium does look nice)
Hardware buttons
Pen tile display (maybe again wouldn't notice)
Bluish whites
GPU (maybe more than enough, unsure)
Build quality (opinion) plastic feels not premium for what i payed
Volume rocker build
So that's what i gathered. Can anyone who has both help me out. Real experience with both is appreciated. I can see how it is and how it isn't worth it. ( i really want to see if s4 is gonna be worth the wait.) PS i work for authorized at&t dealer location. Hope posted this to correct place also. First post ever. So hope u guys will give me a little slack ( not a lot (in not special here, but a little thanks. Hope others find this useful as well. As i researched the heck out of this!

Not sure about more dev support on the S3, remember the Nexus 4 will be the first phone with a KLP OTA and ROMs, and it will take a little while to port to the SS.
Honestly I don't see the S3 to the Nexus 4 as an "upgrade" you don't really notice the krait for S4 Pro upgrade because the dual-core krait with 2gb RAM is so fast already, I don't see the quad core really helping that much, e.g. the S3 does not lag, it's like someone who uses Word and IE upgrading from an Ivy Bridge i5 to an i7...
The other con I can think of upgrading is the HDMI out is really weird for the Nexus 4, you can't just use a $8 MHL adapter... I watch movies all the time from my Galaxy Nexus to my HDTV so it would be an issue for me.
The on-screen buttons I agree with, I love being able to mod my soft keys and stuff, but you can do all of that with the S3 too with AOKP and custom ROMs, just don't even use the hard-buttons if you don' want.
All in all I prefer the Nexus 4 for the customizations, IPS display, and KLP updating, and probably a better working Ubuntu Mobile port faster.
Hope that helps, ultimately you could probably do a straight trade for the phone on a reputable online trading site or even craigslist or something, so why not try it out?
You can fix the blue whites on your amoled screen with a modified kernel.

very true, I had completely forgotten about any discoloration on my amoled Galaxy Nexus because I've had custom kernels with color fixes the whole time I've owned the phone.
I don't consider it as an upgrade either.
I have SGS3 and my sister has N4. For day-to-day usage, I really don't notice difference in performance.
I just can't live without wifi tethering over LTE on my SGS3.
in my opinion a change from s3 to nexus 4 is a downgrade
