Samsung has announced that they will start producing their new HD Super AMOLED display by the beginning of 2013. The 1080p display will be a first for Samsung and is a strategy to keep up with competition. Most manufacturers claim that higher-density screens are better because they are sharper and brighter.
The new high density screens will not be showing up on the Galaxy S 4 because the phone is likely not going to be announced until after the middle part of next year. That means Samsung will be putting out the new 1080p on other phones before upgrading its Galaxy S flagship smartphone. Competitors like HTC have already announced that they will be releasing 1080p display phones, however those will most likely be for screens that are equal to or greater than five inches.
Samsung has used its Super AMOLED displays as a major weapon against competitors and has pointed out that the technology provides “deeper blacks, truer colors and wider viewing angles than competing IPS displays.” However, as with all Samsung displays that use PenTile technology, there will be controversy about display resolution. Eventually, the critics should settle down as they have with previous screens and appreciate the well engineered units. 1080p Super AMOLEDs will hit the market in a wave and should become the norm in the increasingly competitive mobile device sector. Previously, the Galaxy S III had received a 720p PenTile screen but the South Korean firm opted out of that for the Galaxy Note II and used the S-Stripe arrangement. This may signal that the next Galaxy S could have the same S-Stripe.
Since LG Display and Japan Display are producing 5-inch AH-IPS LCD displays in full HD right now, Samsung will be pressured to get their own displays ready as soon as possible. They do not want to lose business with OEMs that are quickly moving to newer technology to keep up with the fast moving consumer electronics sector.
