iPhone 4 screen is amazing. - Galaxy S II General

I have an HTC Inspire. I love the size of the screen and under normal circumstances am never unhappy with the picture quality. Until I use my buddys iPhone 4. No matter how much time has passed, everytime I pick up the IPhone it makes me feel bad about the quality of my screen.
Well the reason I am posting this here is because I have been patiently waiting for the sgs2 to come out here in America so that I can finally have a device with all the specs that I want. Most importantly the screen. I have never actually seen a Super Amoled Plus screen so I was hoping to get some insight.
I know the iPhone actually has a higher resolution, but the sub pixel density on the new Amoled Plus screens is higher. I just like the overal pop of the amoled screens in general and think it looks better than traditional displays. Can anyone who owns both devices give an honest opinion of which they think looks better quality wise.
It would be great to grab my buddys phone someday and say "meh, looks ok".

Not being rude.. But you have come to the galaxy s2 forum and are asking us whats better.... We all have galaxy s2's.. So you wont be getting any unbiased opinions around here...
I have compared my phone to a friends iphoney 4 and although his screen is quite crisp.. he is as sick as a dog about how bright and vibrant the gs2 screen is.. Not to mention this phone is so thin his feels like a brick...
Galaxy s2 everytime....

Damn. So I guess I can never ask a question in this forum that might be biased to another device? I think people are adult enough to admit when another product has them beat.
Either way thanks for the advice.

Has it beat?... Lmfao...

I just came from an iphone 4, and while the screen was my favorite thing about the iphone, i have had absolutely no regrets after switching the sgs2. Actually, i think the retina display is crap compared to the amoled. The colors are so much crisper and holding the screen a foot away from eyes will get you pretty close to the retina display effect.

I don't have an iPhone 4 myself, but here in Singapore enough people own them (90% of the population uses an iPhone 4 according to surveys), so I have plenty of contact with them. For me, the SAMOLED+ just slightly edges out the iPhone's retina display. The colours are fantastic, but I do love the pixel density on the retina too.
That said, as far as memory serves the retina display is not slouch at colours too. You want bad? Try the iPhone 3GS. The colours were GODAWFUL on that one.
I just hope that we will get SAMOLED+ Retina on a future Samsung device. And that might not be that far away, if the rumors of a 4.5 inch 720p SAMOLED+ is true.

I came from the iPhone 4. I will say that the retina display is insane. Looking at HQ photos and video you cannot see one single pixel. SGS II comes close but you can spot pixels if you look close enough. It is very crisp and clear though and the brightness and color density more than makes up for it

Did you actually read his post? Nowhere does he claim that the iPhone 4 has the SGS2 beat.

He is asking an honest question. I have had both and there is no phone out there with a screen this vibrant. Add the screen size and nothing comes close.

Lets keep it strictly to the display please. Obviously the sgs2 is far superior in almost every category, not to mention Android vs iOS in general.

That's you being insecure, I was making a blanket statement. I was saying people can come in and admit that the iPhone 4 screen can't be touched by anything. Even the sgs2.
Or they can say its a close call. As I can not compare the devices, I came here looking for people that could do it for me.

Well .. Any loser that bases there purchasing decision on how sharp a screen is deserves an iphone.. Go ahead.. Suck on them big apple titties...

I'll tell you what, i can never go back...

to a smaller screen now. This phone rocks! Sure, i have a few (non-dealbreaker) gripes similar to others' but ignoring those, the Note is PERFECT. The screen is the most important aspect of a smartphone and the Note's is gorgeous. I hope Samsung continues to make devices this big and badass because like i said, i won't ever be able to use a crummy less-than-5inch screen again.

I couldn't agree more.
At first I thought it was a giganta-phone. But having been a phone owner since 1991 (when they used to cost real money), I must say the Note cleverly nudges the envelope.
My other smartphones look like wee toys.
My tablets look like laptops with their balls cut off.
Out and about: GNote
Between home and office: 17" MBP
But only as long as my eyes can take the searing resolution! My 41-year-old wife fell vocally beyond that 2 months ago...........

ahahahhaha! Nice one! Never heard it before. Or at least be putted like that.
And on the subject, a 5.5" or 5.7" is NOT at all in my opinion a big upgrade from the Note. Or atleast for those who already bought or planning to buy the Note since I haven't heard/read any rumors or anything about any phones in the 5.5-6.5" category.
Now a 6" android phone? With a Dual/Quad SoC with oled/amoled screen? YES SIR!
I was using 7" galaxy tab but its too big .i think if they keep the size og GN but make the screen lil bigger that would be enough for a phone..

I don't think so. It would kill pocketability. You can squeeze in a little more by killing all the hardware buttons, but this is close to the limit.
The pocketability is great now, but we haven't had people putting cases on yet. Bigger+CASE? Ugh.

Well I respect your opinion but for me it's different.
I measured my usual pockets(costumes/jeans) and they are 19cm deep(Jeans) and 17cm(costumes pants) when sitting. So I can staff in there any phone below the above sizes before it's top/bottom emerges.
Oh and both pocket's are abount 12cm wide.
Yeah, we all have many different clothes that it will not fit(maybe same goes for GNote) but making a statement here.
So a 6" GNote look alike phone based on my measurements consisting of H:160mm x W: 92-94mm is really the actual maximum size of pocketability for me.
BUT: Practical? Manageable? Easy to use? Good for a bit of longer than usual calling etc, etc? Nuh, I don't think so.
But then again.. I don't call/speak on the phone much!
Edit: It's not THAT bigger!

Same here...been rockin' a dell streak for over a year. I've looked at the SGS2, but it seems TINY compared to a 5" screen. If the note ever gets to the states, Amazon (US), I'm getting one. A 4.7" would be about as small as I could go now.

You sir, got Note-ed!
I was looking for PDA with a big screen since 2007 after I bought HTC Advantage X7510 with 5". I can say that the ideal for me from 5" to 6" and no more. Now with Samsung Galaxy Note I would never trade it for anything less than 5" and more than 6".

Oh I had done many customizations for a friends X7500(Athena) and I was a real joy. NOT comfortable at all in your pocket. Why I'm saying this?
Just to think from where we came from and we end up with the Note. HTC Advantage, HTC Shift(can't remember if it was released) and so on.

Galaxy S3 - I'm in love!

It's a rumor, but looks beautiful. My Vibrant will be 2 years old this summer, and if S3 is true I'm getting it. Yeah, I know about the GPS and Android update of non-support from Samsung/T-Mobile. But I trust Android Devs to release the best ROM & Kernels anyway.

That depends solely on the quality of the ceramic material. Some ceramics are the hardest known man made materials and nearly as hard as diamond's.

My friend has taken my vibrant and thrown it at a wall of from atleast 10 ft. away nothing but a scratch on the bezel.
Then he put his iPhone 4S 2 ft away from a wooden desk (school) and literally just PUT it down and the back cracked at the top, internal only though.
these Android phones are tough as hell.
Most bullet proof plates to stop rifle rounds are made of ceramic.
They break so the energy doesn't get transferred to you.

Diamonds are not the "hardest" material, in the way of the most difficult material to break, diamonds are actually the hardest material to scratch, they are actually very easy to break with a hammer or maybe dropping them to the floor. But yeah I get your point, samsung is just the new nokia XD.

I used to be in this camp. I recently scooped a Galaxy S2 and that size screen is perfect. Fits comfortably in my pants front pocket, I'm 6 foot. The Vibrant feels puny now lol, but the screen resolution at 4.0 inches is perfect. I notice more distortion at 800 x 480 @ 4.52 inches unfortunately.

Look at the button layout. It's exactly the same as the 4S. Hold button followed by 2 circles.
Look at the screen size, exactly the same as 4S, even I don't think they'd go miniature again when most phones at +/- 4.2"
Earpiece - exactly the same
Camera & LED flash - exactly the same position
Fruit logo and phone info on back - exactly the same position (if you've ever used an iphone)
The rear glass (and front glass if you're feeling brave) can be changed relatively easily, many friends have done it with different colours etc - this is just another different back for the phone.
Should I go on....

Anyone with some basic electronics knowledge can replace parts, which if not made by a very dedicated person, could probably be readily available from shady 3rd party retailers.

If you look at the history of fruit phones, they change the designed every 2 phones (ignore 2G)..
Trust me... This time, I'm right. If it's not a modded 4S (Which it most likely is), then it's some Chinese knock-off.

The renders, which were published by Chinese site iPhone中文网 (Google Translation, via MacOtakara), are based on rumors that have suggested the next iPhone will have a smaller dock, larger speakers and a metal back. While the original report was duped by the pictures, they originally stem from a Flickr user, who explained they were modeled in Rhinoceros 3D and are an authentic looking forgery.

Closed, this is both off topic to the SGS3, it's also flamebait bait and the rumor mill working overtime.
Nothing to see here, carry on.

Dang you beat me!

Returned My G3 For Refund After Seeing The..

Well.. It's gone.
I only got one "Overheat" msg in my 13 days with the G3.. And using the ONite batteries I purchased from Amazon increased overall duration of the device..
But then I went to BestBuy and seen first hand the SuperAmoled Screen of the Samsung Galaxy Note 4...
I Immediately went home packed up my G3 and returned it for refund.
With the $200.00 rebate directly from Samsung if you pre-order before October 17th and send in ANY old working smartphone, it made for a great deal for me.
Quite frankly, I don't care if T-Mobile even decides to lock down the Note 4.. The Screen IMO is the most Stunning Screen ever to be put in a Smartphone to date.. and I could live with it stock and just enjoying content on the Note 4.
I'll miss the style and size of the G3 ( which has no equal in that respect ) but SuperAmoled wins my dollars over Backlit LCD.. even if the Note 4 will cost me $100.00 more.. There were no issues of Touchwiz lag whatsoever in my 30 minutes with the device and "Gapgate" was not present on the any of the display models including the Note Edge. If you are even thinking of making the switch for your own personal reasons,
My Suggestion is.. Do It.
Unlocked now lol

"WELL, SAMSUNG'S SUPERAMOLED TECHNOLOGY HAS FINALLY WON ME BACK...
SEEING THE NOTE 4'S SCREEN IN PERSON FOR THE 1ST TIME ALMOST GAVE ME A HEARTATTACK! ... "

Can we close this thread?
Uhhh. Right. I guess you didnt have skydragons kernel and accessibility screen tweaks to make the colors amoled ???

Well AMOLED will definitely look better to most people, although it is not the most natural. I am going to wait for the Nexus 6 to be released and if it is a smaller size than 5.5" (from what I have read there are reports from 5.2" to even 6") then I will probably sell my G3 to get it.
I am still waiting for a bootloader solution and a variety of custom ROM's esp AOSP ones but I think it is not going to come and I expect the Nexus 6 will be easy if not unlocked by Google themselves for the dev community.
Please close this thread.
We don't care about you selling it and buying a Samsung instead...

Plus this
'Displaymate' only actually care about Samsung phones. They test almost nothing else and their results aren't in agreement with everyone elses.

As much as you want to disagree with Displaymate's claims, you can't argue with factual measurements/charts unless you're delusional.

Or you think they are lying..
AMOLED definitely has its pros and cons. Extremely dark and deep blacks (so dark the pixels are off) but the colors are way too saturated. So yeah, depending on one's own personal preference, it can be really good or atrociously bad. I personally prefer more natural colors.
People still buy SamSh!t phones?

I am aware of the AOSP ROM out but I am more concerned about the bootloader being unlocked so we can all flash ROMs through CMW/TWRP instead of all this kdz, Odin etc stuff and having a reboot persistent ROM on all G3 versions (well my D855 at least!). I was used to doing this with my SGS and it was piss easy so having to deal with all this stuff, I just don't have the time to try all it out.
Tbh, since I had been forced to use the LG stock ROM, it's not actually that bad compared to CM11.2 and I don't mind it now but it does lag (for a high spec flagship) and could do with some optimisation.
**Sorry, I have just been told on another thread that the custom ROM's being introduced now actually do persist through reboots so that is exactly what I wanted! I'm gonna try it out this weekend and hopefully find the fix for the lagging.
Dude the bootloader thing is already unlocked how havnt you found out. Lmao

Thank you for actually contributing to the discussion. XDA seems to be full of people who just want to rag one way or another.
I used to think AMoled was awesome, i like how black it is, but now i see the colour on other phones its way to intense.

Everyone is entitled to his or her opinion...
Why are so many of you so defensive about your device?... Buyer's Remorse maybe???
Shouts of "CLOSE THE THREAD" make you sound like your feelings are hurt.. I did not start this thread to start an argument. If you are happy with YOUR G3 then good.. So.. why are some making comments just short of name calling..
This is MY experience with the G3 vs the Note 4..
I feel the N4 is a Superior Device.. it's "The" device to have for 2014 IMO.. But, no device is all things to all people.. I enjoyed my time with the G3.. but the somewhat cloudy screen and low brightness really come to light when placed next to the Note 4.. That's A Fact. couple that with the overheating issues well... you get the picture.
But calm down... they are just telephones.

Big disappoiment Nexus 6

I got my new nexus 6 and im very disappointed and let down. At first I thought it was going to be better than the note 4 but it really isn't. Does not feel premium at all, instead it feels cheap, kinda like samsung phones. The blue color that tmobile offers is really ugly, like seriously, midnight blue? Aside from the fact that it has a big screen, it does not offer absolutely nothing, it has zero features to take advantage of the big screen. It doesn't have phablet features to help with the size. The screen is a huge let down it is not even a joke. The iphone 6 has a better screen. The speakers aren't loud but the sound is clear. The camera still blows as usual. I can't believe Google hasn't done anything to improve it. I can't comment on the battery just yet but I'm thinking that it would suck. The ambient display will suck the living out of it. Having said all that, I'm torn to pieces. I'm returning it tomorrow
Its not for everyone. We all knew this.

Uh OK. You obviously don't have the phone. One thing about the x14 and n6 is they feel very premium. Almost wish they were a little more light and less premium as it comes across slippery. Very well made phones. Now move on....

Saw it at T-Mobile store today. Definitely does not feel premium. I'd say the In quality and styling it would be The Note 4 in first place, then the IPhone 6 Plus, then last the Nexus 6. The matte back is a greasy fingerprint magnet like a previous phone I had the Moto G. The screen does look pretty nice and the speakers on the front do sound good and loud. But I'll be sticking with my IPhone 6 Plus.

Cool story, bro.
Give it 3-4 weeks and we'll weed out all the people who pre-ordered just because it was hyped.
I don't like metal phone such as htc one m8 I had for 6-7 month and I really was scared to drop it or scratch it. Plastic phones forever for me. So I not worried about how the phone feels. I am going to get the N6 no matter what

Yup. This is pretty common with every new device release. Within the first month, threads usually pop up stating how they're disappointed with x device and thinking about going back to the phone they already owned or moving onto another.

This!
For those new to XDA, it has been known that once a hot new device hits the market, XDA will be flooded with opinions, assumptions, and disappointments....it never gets old.
Move on people.
Call bullsh!t without pictures. Sounds like a troll from the start.
While its perfectly fine to be disappointed with a phone and want to tell people about it, there is a much better way to do so then what was posted in the OP. Perhaps a constructive breakdown and examples of what is disappointing? The way the OP is laid out, it will only start issues.
