I'm curious to see what most people are using for the screen calibration setting on their OP5, I'm currently using DCI-P3.
I'm using the Default. Whites are a lot whiter and colours seem to be more vibrant than DCI-P3.
Default here aw well. sRGB looked a bit washed out and DCI-P3 too warm.
DCI-P3 here. Stock is too cool (whites appear blue) and over-saturated. I tend to prefer more accurate colors.

I don't prefer any if them, after every 2 or 3 days I switch the preset.
sRGB has more real like colour. Default is most saturated of them, DCI-P3 warmer and less saturation compared to default.
After owning a pixel 2 xl, i had to switch all my devices to srgb everything else looks insane. Like colours were taken out of a teenage girls wardrobe. Waaaay too bright, waaaay too loud

Hello.
Anyone else noticed that the display is lower quality than sgs ?
I mean in terms of gamma.
I am a photographer and I was amazed how good the contrast and brightness f the first galaxy was, however this one seems to have way too big contrast, making everythig that is dark much darker, giving a fake and strange appearence.
Also the auto brightness in general is lower than sgs.
Does somebody know if it can be tweaked through a kernel recompile, like sharpness and color in voodoo ?
Go to options-->display-->uncheck automatical screen power adjustme(don't know the exact english term, got it in dutch). I bet it is this again...
Let me know... you're not the first one.
No, it's not that but thanks
It's the actual gamma of the driver I think
However I did notice there is now a "background effects" that can adjust saturation and hue so there is access to the drivers. Maybe a bunch of new effects added there like "classic gamma, normal saturation..."
I came from the captivate, and ran just about every rom that was out there. One of the ubiquitous mods was the color fix. I noticed when I first booted the SGS2 up, the color was off (in relation to my expectations) sure enough in display settings there was an option to change it. Without looking I believe it's called "cinema", which perfectly returned that color richness I loved.

there is something wrong with auto brightness , it doesnt work very well , but its not true that SGS 2 has a lower quality display than sgs , Super AMOLED Plus displays are an upgrade to Super AMOLED. They use a real-stripe subpixel matrix and not pentile - and so has 50% more sub-pixels. The PPI is a bit larger but Samsung will soon make them at much higher resolutions. Super AMOLED Plus displays are also thinner, brighter and use 18% less energy than the older Super AMOLED displays.
Loving the nexus 7 however I'm wondering is it me or does the screen overall color seem a little faded/washed out. I mean the images are crisp but it seems the color isn't very vibrant.. thoughts? Or do I have a bad unit?
Thanks so much
I found myself thinking the same thing. However the only comparison I have is the same background on my Galaxy Nexus. It could just be the GN being very saturated. I like that though and was a bit disappointed by the screen.
I find the screen to be great. However, I have an Evo LTE so the color saturation seems to be pretty similar.

The screen is great to me. Very clean and viewing angles are great.
Washed after update
The colors were fine, but I'm noticing that they appear washed out since the most recent update. I don't have a direct frame of reference since I updated, but I could swear that the colors aren't as vibrant as they were before. I also have an Evo 4G LTE and the N7 colors are less vibrant (something that wasn't too obvious before). I know they are different screens, it's just something that didn't bug me before.
Hi, could you please comment on how good is skin tone color reproduction. Thanks.
i thinked the same that the colors looks like a bit washed out / fade.. is this normal?
The colors on the S3 are vividly colored

I agree. I think the default automatic brightness feature is a little dull. You should try to manually increase the brightness....that seemed to fix my problem.

Compared to both my Galaxy Tab (original 7" 2010 model) and my Galaxy Tab 8.9 LTE, (both with PLS, Samsung's version of IPS screens), the Nexus 7 is indeed more washed out/dimmer. It's brighter than my Nook Color though.
But the colors are fairly accurate and the viewing angles are good. Hoping for a mod that increases auto-brightness levels a few notches, and a mod to adjust color temps/saturation and I'd be happy with it.
You reading this Supercurio?
This should make it easier to enable/disable NVidia's Tegra PRISM option for rooted devices only : market link
This is all over the internet, when the note 3 brightness is set on auto brightness it reaches very high levels of brightness which u cant reach if set manually to the maximum.. am I right ? Anyone owning the two devices tested this and found the same results?? And how is the whites on the note 3 in general compared to the lg g2..?

I think the LG G2 display is great. Max brightness is pretty bright, I can't see why anyone would want it even brighter. Auto brightness levels are a pain, but that can easily be fixed by using Lux to manage it. If you measure quality in brightness alone, you may be better off buying a flashlight.

Even if it was brighter,tell me that again after 4-5 months.When the oled will lose a very significant amount of its brightness...and will probably have a very nasty burn in,that will stay there forever for the used to see lol

That is absolutely right!!!
AMOLEDS hate full brightness and full, direct UV light exposure!!! (Sun, office lamps, tanning beds, etc) LOL
IPS all the way for me!!!
Cheers!
I have both the Note 3 and the G2. The Note 3 does indeed get brighter at maximum brightness, it actually becomes painful on the eyes because of the contrast ratio of the AMOLED screen. It's so bright it hurts to look at it in the dark. The IPS screen on the G2 is much more pleasant to look at in my opinion, that's one of the reason I use it as my daily phone.

My wife has a g2 while I have the note 3. The note 3 goes into a extra brightness mode in direct sunlight and is clearly more visible than the g2 outside in direct sunlight. This mode only occurs in direct sunlight on auto brightness and can not be turned up that high manually.
While the g2 screen is nice, I do notice that the viewing angles are not as good and the scree don't seem as crisp and clear as my note. Still a great screen

Well thanks all, this means the note at first is better specially under direct sunlight or so but it has the burn in issue and so on, so I guess I'll stick with the g2 then
I only asked this question because I feel that blacks are much more pleasant to look at on the note than the grey blacks on the g2

The burn in shouldn't be an issue. Only phones u will see burn in on are display units ramped up to full brightness and stuck on the home screen for hours and hours.
I had a galaxy s3 for almost 2 years and it had no burn in and the screen was still bright. Oled has come a long way since the first amoled screens.
People say the same thing about plasma but plasma has a superior picture vs lcd...my plasma in my bedroom is 3 years old and stays on sportscenter and I have no burn in

Big fat no. Put them side by side and judge for yourself. I did when i bought this phone and saw the difference for myself.
Note 3 is bigger yes but not better...

All of my last devices have been amoled until the g2. Had burn in issues on 2 galaxy fascinates, and blotchy low-light darks on 3 droid razrs. And yes, amoleds do degrade in color/contrast over time. Not a big deal if you swap out or jump up devices frequently, but if you go the contract term it gets noticeable.
What swung me back to LCD was the purchase of a nexus 10 over the summer. The HD LCD blew me away & convinced me of how far this technology has come.

i have no problem at all viewing my g2 screen in direct sunlight on 100% brightness... the g2s screen is alot better in my opinion i just wish the blacks were alittle darker
My roomate has the Note 3. I made him sit with me and do a bunch of browsing battles and gaming/app opening challenges. Throughout these "competetive" tests I notices that the Note 3 does definetly have a brighter state on auto and max brightness, but I found that my G2 had a clearer, brighter minimum brightness (which is what I always leave Marge on). Yes my G2's name is marge. But that Amoled screen is just a contrast machine and I think that helps elude to the brighter screen we see, since it's blacks are so deep. But as for an overall screen? G2 all the way. Edge to edge, excellent viewing angles for what I need and amazing color reproduction that the Note 3 couldn't quite match. Hope this helps anyone!
People were talking about Srgb in the nexus 6p .. I tried it and the colors looked weird to me. Why would I use this feature ?
sRGB is a method of rendering colors to which the colors drawn are, in a sense, more basic and more true to the central RGB color matrix. Newer display technology is capable of rendering a wider range of colors which can increase saturation and give things a more "popping" visual as they are "truer than life". Using the sRGB setting will tone down those exaggerated colors and bring them closer to what you would see in the real world. I doubt you would see much if any performance impact be it positive or negative to the processor or battery since the technology being used can handle these varieties of colors easily. So if you find your screen to be more appealing in sRGB mode as you like LCD-like visuals versus the heavily saturated Samsung-like AMOLEDs, then you may benefit from using it. In a real-world application, I can see it being useful for seeing how your photos would really display on print or a standard LCD screen as it is reducing the range of colors and saturation created artificially by screen enhancements.
It's a new feature in N and from what I can tell it noticeably lowers the saturation levels of the OLED to more of an LCD style. I've always preferred LCDs over AMOLEDs simply because they look more natural in color accuracy. What do you guys think and has anyone settled on one specific mode or are u switching based on the screen content?

Its not a new feature on the 6p. We've had an srgb option forever.
I personally use ex kernel and tweak saturation to around 22. The srgb mode is too desaturated on my screen.
