Top parts never happened but we all know it would if they had a 750p screen. Reviewers sometime criticise sony for having a 1080p screen.

don't you mean the ALL-DAY BATTERY SCREEN?
>>
>>56495231

Honestly don't know since I've never used anything higher than 1080p.

I'm guessing there is a noticeable difference though from using my own 1080p phone which could clearly be improved(but not by much), don't know if it's worth the sacrifices though.

Marketing. Apple buyers are generally very insecure people (teenage girls, closet homosexuals) who feel a desperate need to belong somewhere. Apple's marketing team plays right into this need, giving them a feeling of belonging. This of course explains why apple (but also other brands) fanboys get so hostile and defensive when criticizing their choice of products. For them it's not just a product, it's quite literally an extention of their personality.
>>

>>56495088
Have you actually look at an iphone recently? they have great screens, the best ones after samsungs.

It's like you all forgot that 1080p and up phones are a meme.

Congratulations you were brainwashed by the industry.
>>
>>56495088
How do they do it?

If a journalist ever bitches about apple products, the media won't ever be invited to any apple product release.

It's simple bitchslap tactics from apple to prevent honest journalism.
>>
I'm using a Galaxy S3, which is 720p with Pentile so effectively only 480p. It looks ugly but it's a phone so I don't care. I have no plans on upgrading.

That resolution is perfectly acceptable on 4,7'' screen.
I mean, i'm still satisfied with my 1280x768 Nexus 4. I don't see why you'd need a higher resolution screen on a phone. What's the point?

Implying anything cares what those companies actually release!
>>
>>56498389
No way is that acceptable. 1080p should be the minimum at this point. Are you telling me you hate having more pixels?
>>
>>56498622
i'm saying that at 4,7" you don't need any more
318 ppi on a phone is clear and efficient, and that's still less than iphone 7, at 326 and 7+, at 401
>>
>>56498622
>Are you telling me you hate having more pixels?
Having more pixels for the sake of having more pixels is useless.
It requires more processing power, meaning more lag or lower quality. It also requires more power in general which means less battery life. Oh, and it's also more expensive.
>>
>>56498702
The A10 Fusion is probably the strongest and most efficient processor for phones. The Samsung Galaxy S7 uses qualcomm with a quad HD screen. And when compared to iphone 6S it does way better in battery life.i'm not saying to have the most pixels ever but at least up to 1080p because thats the standard resolution for everything; youtube videos; netflixs; pictures
>>
>>56498795

could it be because the battery is almost twice as big?

No, I'd prefer it.

>comparing phones with 5.7 inch screen with a phone with a 4.7 inch screen

Its 326ppi, unless you are doing VR you dont really need more.

The iPhone + is 1080p which is more than enough for a phone

Every single reviewer agrees that iPhones have one of the best looking screens and they improved it again this year with wide color.

Lets see the reviews before anything
>>
>>56499028
okay lets compare a 4.7 inch 750p iphone vs a 4.7inch 1080p iphone what will look better? OBVIOUSLY THE 1080P, 750p is 'good enough" BUT IT COULD BE BETTER. And apple is not giving us better
>>
>>56495088
Not only that, they outright said it was the best screen in any smartphone right now.

Disregarding the stone age resolution, it's not even oled.

The issue with Sony's last Xperia line was that it was too costly for the specs and any phone at the same price could do better. Welp, now the iPhone 7 costs more with less pixel density, but at least you have your 4k recording

i'm no apple fanboy but have you even looked at the links you're promoting? every fucking business has the same blacklists. who the fuck wants to talk to a journalist that constantly writes negative shit about you? so of course you don't invite them to your promotions.

if you don't like some friend of your family, do you invite them to your birthdays or parties? of course not. this is the same type of shit.

Literally every laptop/pc maker sends review units out to the big name magazines/sites regardless of their review history. HP repeatedly gets slammed and still does it, Acer and Dell for their low end models as well.

The only one that throws a tantrum is Apple because their exploding overheating throttling toddler toys would get destroyed in comparison to real computers. Deal with it mackiddie.

to be fair samsung uses pentile screens instead of the normal RGB.
so 720p rgb > 1080p pentile

it may be 750p, but it's a very optimised screen, which makes it perform pretty damn well

BIG NUMBERS is an expectation of those manufacturers because they set the precedent, and its one of their main selling points, of course they'd get blown the fuck out gimping their devices in some way, even something so trivial as resolution

Apple's customer base doesn't share these expectations, they're buying into an experience and a name, not a bunch of numbers on a shelf talker

Explain this, people who believe in the you can't see any higher meme. This guy clearly knows what he's doing, and from y own experience the difference is obvious straight away.

>I've conducted some blind tests where a viewer had to sort 4 photos (150, 300, 600 and 600 ppi prints). The two 600 ppi were printed at 1200x1200 and 1200x2400 dpi. So far all have gotten the correct order of highest to lowest ppi (includes people up to age 50).

I'm kind of disappointed by the lack of a headphone port. For some people wireless just isn't an option, take me for example.

I like to run an extra long wire from a pair of earbuds under my clothing and insert it to my urethra, winding nearly a foot of cord inside. Then I take public transit and wait for someone to snatch my headphones (I live in a pretty rough area) and feel the pure bliss as the 3.5mm jack scrapes the inside of my dick.

With Apple going away from corded headphones Android phones will be sure to follow suit before long and then I doubt anyone would bother to steal outdated wired earbuds at all.
>>
>>56495088
The worst part about the earbuds is that ugly stem. Im sure a better design exists. It's like the pencil and the charging port on the mouse. Apple is stuck in group think.

>>56498441
