While I loved my Moto Droid (first gen) and its physical keyboard, there really isn't much of a difference with a touch-screen keyboard. The REAL issue is with the UI, which usually makes the keys incredibly hard to use - especially at speed and with large fingers.

If they can clean up the UI (well, just the keyboard UI), and get the predictive typing thing down (its still pretty bad), then sure, I'll get rid of a physical keyboard.

The other issue, however, is with the whole touchscreen setup. Right now, they aren't pixel accurate. The resolution of the touch-input is far lower than the screen - and there's lag. MS demoed some crazy low response time touchscreen tech a while back, and if they can implement that with a pixel-accurate input system, then yes, you've got a winner.


As for the actual rez thing - yes. More rez everywhere. There's never too much (Have you seen a 12mp 27"? They're insane).

hope my next phone will be a 5" 1080p SAMOLED+ or True IPS with 4GB RAM...not picky on a monster CPU/GPU but the most important thing is that the screen time is at least 6-7 hours on stock settings (right now my Galaxy Nexus barely pushes 3 hours on stock settings)
To whoever said the S III is Full RGB sub-pixels...you need to check your research again..it's pentile.
Yeah, apple is most likely going to make up pixels rather than add new ones. They're going to accommodate only the screen size, they are going to stretch it, making it taller so they are just adding more pixels to the ones already there.

(540x960 ---> 540x1157 or whatever the rumors say it will be)

In theory I wouldn't mind having a 5" 2560x1600 screen on a phone (that's 600 dpi, which is the standard density for magazine covers that need to have nice crisp text), but in practice just being able to watch movies in their native resolution would be good enough for me.
From a purely practical point of view 1280x720 is probably ideal (since 90% of the web is set up to run at this resolution) and most people are happy enough watching videos at 320x240. For those who do care, having the option to get a 1920x1080 display would be pretty nice.

Bump for the discussion of the Oppo FInd 5. They stole the show IMO.

so let mmtry to understand!they will bring to market smartphone with 1080p ,yet almost no screen maker is microsoft certified.good luck getting edid ,they dont need to be proper value,last i checked all the timing value were wrong.(because 1088 pixel vs 1080 creatr a slight issue wich create a huge viewing huglyness a viewer end.and now they want to port this mess to smartphone?ho brother,another realtimeisuniversal mess all over again!at least this time it isnt ms ignoring customer.

In theory that would be interesting, yet in reality it is nearly useless.
Unaided, the human eye cannot really tell any difference past 300 ppi. And we are past that on some phones already.

Watching movies in the "native" resolution is not practical either - you still have to rip and upload HUGE files. Very few phones can actually fit even one BD 1080p movie, that could range anywhere from 15 to 30GB. Streaming that is also not practical - even through WiFi.

Cumbersome, battery hogging, impractical, and for what? For something you cannot actually see, or you don't actually care about further than e-peen bragging rights etc.

So like it or not, we have to downsize / compress / trans-code movies, and when doing so the "one-size-fits-all" approach (1080p-or-go-home) is not wise at all...
It is an arbitrary number after all.

It doesn't matter if you can see 720 vs 1080. It only matters if it sells smile.gif
