4.3" qHD (960x540). Screen tech is rumored to be labeled "Super AMOLED", which so far has only been applied to pentile screens, but "HD Super AMOLED" included the non-pentile Note 2. At 256ppi, it would be a respectable non-pentile density (Note 2 is 260ish), but if it's pentile, it would need to be a lot higher before I'd consider it as a replacement for my primary reader. |
gsmarena put it under a microscope, and surprisingly, it isn't pentile. It joins a very elite group of non-pentile amoleds including the Note 2, the S2, the PS Vita and a few others.
qHD non-pentile isn't exactly world class, but it isn't a density downgrade for me either and if the price is right, I've found my next phone. I was actually bargain hunting for a Note 2 already when that last little detail came out. I was looking forward to having a spen and silo, but I guess I'll live.
The review also confirms some goodies, like the IR blaster, airview and surprisingly to me, multiwindow.
