[COLOR=#red]There's a notable difference between 720p and 1080p on a small screen...........if you are using a magnifying glass.

If you did a blind test with a 720p and 1080p television set under 32" you can barely tell the difference.

Don't worry though...4k resolution devices will be coming down the pipeline soon enough and then all of a sudden people will swear that 1080p was so unusable. [/COLOR]

I have a note 2 and the first time i tinkered with an htc one i immediately saw the difference in clarity. It may not be noticeable to everyone but I surely see the difference. Just like some people think beats by dre don't sound any different and the sound snobs think otherwise.

[COLOR=#red]Well of course...you went from a bigger screen with lower resolution to a smaller screen with more resolution. With both things being the same the difference in minimal at best...they keyword being minimal. That's why a double blind test works sogreat...information can cause bias...meaning once a person knows certain specs their perception can be biased. [/COLOR]

Que? When you're talking points per inch screen size is irrelevant. I could be shown a one inch square of the same picture on both screens and I'll be able to tell the difference. It's not a big deal to me so I'm fine with 720.

so what your saying is, consider the specs, but weigh you personal experience/opinion of a phone more? i think that's what matters at the end of the day.


unrelated.. this G2 looks like a GS4 refresh. its w.e to me. i think id still take x over this. looks nice tho.

MOTO X LIKE FUNCTION ON ALMOST ANY ANDROID DEVICES NOW 

 

[sooperhooper]

That's just too much motion imo there comes a point where it's just more convenient to press a button. Gonna have people looking like they're dancing with glow sticks at a rave.

I'll pass on all the motion stuff. Easy way to send your phone flying outta your hand

 

[milestailsprowe]

Now I just need the OK Google Voice functions. I want a Moto X just for that

MOTO X LIKE FUNCTION ON ALMOST ANY ANDROID DEVICES NOW

[COLOR=#red]a couple of phones[/COLOR] [COLOR=#red](Android phone running 4.3) and it's really only useful for phones with AMOLED screens as the black pixels don't actually turn on, saving battery life. IE Galaxy Nexus, GS4 GE/4.3 rom[/COLOR]

but thanks for sharing of course

What Browser are you guys using that supports Adobe Flash on the Galaxy S4?

So you basically cook with your device and you can operate some moto x functions?

Oh 4.3 on my GS3 is LIVE!

it's fast, battery life is amazing and I can use emoji throughout the entire system.

 

[JayDean03]

^what ROM u running

 

[kingfoamnyc]

My girl owns a Evo 4G LTE which is basically the same panel the one uses just its 720p and I'll be the first to tell you the 1080p does make a difference . The Ones display is just better in every way imaginable . Better colors , sharper text , brighter , etc . I do somehow wonder is it worth it ? Because I know for a fact the battery life would be even better pushing less pixels with this good of a processor . I wouldn't mind if flagships stayed at 720p and we continued to improve and innovate battery tech .

 

[burymeag]

got 4.3 on my galaxy nexus. loving it.

will there be a new nexus this year? and will it skip verizon like the nexus 4 did? any rumors?

 

[Nawzlew]

VZW won't see another Nexus device anytime soon.

 

[kalikid23]

Anyone having issues with their Galaxy S4 and crackling sound when playing music?

I tried the stock headphones and music sounds fine, but when I try any other pair of headphones I get very low sound and it starts to crackle when turned up.

I read online that its a common issue with the S4 but found no fix for it.

Any suggestions?
