Imagine the grunt a cellphone would need to run that! I'll stick with 1080 thanks.

Bad news

Large smartphones (otherwise known as phablets), are already a growing trend in Asia, having outshipped notebooks and tablets last year. But IDC finds that now even larger devices, tablets of 7” screen sizes and above, are increasingly shipping with cellular voice capabilities, and such devices are getting more traction in the Asia/Pacific excluding Japan (APeJ) region, breaching the 25% mark in the second quarter of 2014.

According to IDC’s Worldwide Quarterly Tablet Tracker report, about 13.8 million units of tablets were shipped in the APeJ region in Q2 2014, of which nearly 25% (around 3.5 million units) had voice calling over cellular networks as an option built-in to the device. This translates to more than 60% growth on a year-on-year basis in unit terms for this category of tablets, which also incidentally happen to be 100% Android-based.

what other tricks did you teach it?

Now I am training him to exterminate Samsung Galaxy smartphones.

Interesting chart

@tetakpatak

They need this:

below $15 :-)

I really don't see any difference between 720p on 5,5" and 1080p on 7" screen of my respective devices.

I see some, but you need to look for it :-)

Yet 4K sounds cool, I am sure it'll sell well. Already FullHD screens are referred like "old" in reviews and all wait for more.

Sharp is gearing up for mass production of screens boasting the industry's highest level of resolution for smartphones and tablets, with picture clarity that enables viewing of even 4K broadcasts on a small screen.

The Japanese company aims to further enhance the earnings power of its LCD business by promoting the technically advanced polysilicon panels along with its separate line of low-power IGZO panels, and in particular by leveraging its reputation for small, high-resolution LCD panels in China.

The displays it intends to mass-produce in this manner will boast a resolution of about 600 pixels per inch -- 10% higher than the current leaders, made by rival Japan Display.

For the new high-resolution LCD panels, it plans to start out with shipments of several hundred thousand units a month. But the outlook for such panels appears good. DisplaySearch of the U.S. estimates that the global market for sub-9-inch panels for smartphones and tablets will grow 70% from 2013 to reach $56.4 billion in 2018, with overall demand getting a boost from panels offering picture quality at the high-definition level and better.

Get used to simple fact that 4K videos will be consumed on smartphones :-)

In 2015, global shipments of Ultra HD smartphones are forecast to reach 23 million, according to DisplaySearch. Ultra HD displays will account for more than 5% of smartphone shipments in North America and Japan in 2015, and just under 5% in western Europe.

It seems like all sane people died in the process.

I believe a change of topic name for this thread is in order.

:-)

Yep, camera monitors.

This one is easy. it takes tome to design product. Guys are working :-)

But I am not so sure about fast improvements of average shooters eyes :-)

I'm wondering why aren't there more cheap Full HD monitors based on smartphone panels on the market. They could keep the size and cut everything except the screen and its video circuitry.

You mean camera monitors?

Seems like they won't stop soon:

LG Display a leading innovator of display technologies, announced today that it has developed the world's first Quad HD AH-IPS LCD panel for smartphones. At 2560X1440 with 538ppi, the new 5.5-inch Quad HD panel is the highest resolution and ppi (pixel per inch) mobile panel to date, and provides a glimpse at what's next after current Full HD smartphone panels, critical given the growing trend towards larger displays.

Only 1.21mm thin with a 1.2mm bezel measured in LCD modules (LCM), LG Display's new Quad HD panel is both the world's slimmest and narrowest panel, with 12% reduced thickness compared to the company's 5.2-inch Full HD panel released last month. Based on Low Temperature Poly-Silicon (LTPS) substrate, the panel also realizes superior brightness of 430nit with improved transmittance and larger aperture opening size.
