so ive had this phone for 3-4 months now, and ive discovered these..really awesome things
1. great build quality, i dropped it the other day and the phone had absolutely no scratches(from my waist height, so around 3 foot? onto the pavement..) this really shocked me
2. the phone is super fast..even compared to my friend's sgs2 i9100(after installing faux's kernel at least)
3. HOLY CRAP amazing screen, i get theres blob and lines..but since they arent all that visible to me i just ignore it.. now ive popped in a movie in it today for the first time..and holy crap the colors are amazing..transformer 1 looks better on my phone versus my 1080p screen..
I love mine too i just got a white one

yeah, the phones screen is great if you can ignore the lines. but i think you got a bad fullhd tv if you think your phone is better :/
Hows the white one treating you?

i watched the movie on my computer, not a tv..hehe the thing is, on my computer screen it lacked contrast, lcd/led screens never display black properly, so movies look crap compared to superamoled..which can display proper black...
Yep, phone's pretty great.

You're not very visually observant if you don't see the difference between OLED and typical TV screen technologies. OLED kills LCD and plasma in contrast. Black is black. I actually bought an Amaze first, because the screen looked "brighter" to me in the store. But I couldn't stand the gray "blacks" that was much more obvious in low ambient light conditions. A few other things annoyed me so I swapped it for the GS2 and I am much happier with this phone. I've actually watched a few movies on the phone because the subtle shadow detail is so amazing on Super AMOLED Plus. This is why the big buzz from CES is the OLED TVs being introduced by LG and Samsung this year. I can't wait to see these TVs in person, although I'm sure I won't be able to afford one for a while.
I agree very nice phone, fast and beautiful!

This is the best phone ever. I purchased white one from ebay and I am loving it. This might sound crazy but I love touchwiz on sammy devices. I also own a white samsung galaxy tab 10.1 and I love both of my sammy devices. I love sammy touchwiz music player app and file explorer.
Yea I had the amaze at first but that screen bleed issue was killing me I knew about the blobs and stuff but I ignore them and once i popped in a 1080p movie I was like wow pat on myself in the back for that exchange
i was actually thinking about the blob stuff..im quite sure our adreno 220 gpu can actually support a 720p screen..so why dont we wait and see if samsung pushes a 4.5 inch 720p phone out, and buy the replacement screen for it?
I'm in love with this phone. Makes my Sensation feel like a G1. I'm still dancing since I got it free. I still am in shock watching apps install almost instantaneously.

Ahahah I love post like this. It bring excitement to every GS2 owners once again. Thanks for sharing. It’s been boring lately due to lack of ROM updates and/or progress of CM9 for our device.

really? is a screen transplant actually possible? cost aside ($100+ for a screen when you can just invest in the next best device, actually SAMOLED+ may be even more $$) assuming the screen's ribbon connections are magically compatible, wouldnt the software of the phone only pump out WVGA resolution and your 720p screen would have ugly black bars? Phone screens != PC monitors mix and match

One way to find out, someone be a guinea pig. lol
The cpu can support 720p screen the rezound has a 720p super lcd screen with htc sense bloat on top of it.
Holy crap...we can switch the screens with the skyrocket HD?? That's interesting!

I just my current tablet the tf700 to bring my rpg books with me and I am looking for something smaller. I wanted to know how well the screen is with large pdf files, can it scale them to fit on the screen?
Of course it can - only question is whether you can read them...

If you find a sample text. I can load it on mine and post a screenshot.
*rolling eyes* A screenshot is completely useless, man!
Of course it will be sharp, because the screen has the exact same resolution as the TF700. But the problem will be whether it's still legible without strain, because the screen is so small!

I decided today to try the G3 while driving, that is record my journey, this came to mind for track days especially with the OIS however it seems the OIS is acting odd or something else it happening, have a look at the video attached and tell me what you think is wrong being there is no settings, theres not a lot I can do as far as I know.

there is something wrong with ur phone if i were u i'd exchange it
If i'm walking it doesn't do it, it's only in a vehicle.?
That can't be right, there must be a hardware problem with your device's camera. The quality itself behind all of the movement looks great, but ofc the movement is not
Was that shot in 1080p or 4k? I saw a similar issue on the oneplus one with 4k recording where it looked very similar to your problem.
1080P in a cradle on the windshield. I have noticed if you steady it with your hand it is near enough gone, I think the OIS doesn't like the rough tick over of my van lol
Could you please test it with 60fps? Or 30fps, if the posted video was 60fps.
I think it shakes to much in the holder. As you wrote, if you hold it with your hand, than it's a lot better.
Had similar problem, if you disable auto focus the problem should go away.

When I use my friends iPhones or any 720p phones they look very grainy to me. Is it just me or is it because I have gotten used to the QHD display on my G3? I used to think the iPhone screen size was ok...now when I use it it's like a toy, and I have a hard time navigating the screen ?
Also whenever I use the S4 it definitely feels a little more grainy after you get used to the QHD panel. Is anyone else seeing those sideffects. I think my perception quality expectations is out of the roof now...makes me wonder how people claim that a iPhone PPI is more than enough ?
Same here, every smartphone I am looking at looks kinda grainy, it's hard to describe...
The display of my mother in laws Galaxy core something with it's 800x480 4,3" display looks like a crossword puzzle ☺
Frankly even some 720P phones make the iPhone look grainy, the iPhone is one of the lowest DPI phones you can still buy, it doesn't qualify as HD by any definition.
Yup my other phone is iphone 5 and its sh*t compered to g3 my mother huawei g300 that is just ridiculous
Agreed, even the 1080 phones look quite quite grainy. The sharpening and variable quality screens ruin the G3 display though.

I know it makes me think what the hell are the iPhone fans thinking when they say that 300 PPI is more than enough or 1080p is unnecessary. Even the New iPhone 6 4.7 and 5.5 inch models won't have FHD. Totally will look grainy for sure.

Well yeah, I'm just talking about graininess
Not just you, I also have a Moto X and that screen just screams of pixelation.
I'm starting to see old image assets showing their true low definition in apps, live wallpapers, games ect. Luckyily this isnt a 4k phone or it might be more noticable, as is things will only improve for 2k and 4k as time progresses. I can really tell text has lost the jagged edges it had with my old 720p phone which is nice.
Wanted to add it will be strange seeing mobile devices pushing uhd more than most, remember the image quality android and ois started with?

Now what has me tripping is how can LG put a qhd resolution on the LG Stylus. That is such a 2010 resolution. I can't imagine what kind of PPi and grainy experience one would have.

When I say they look okay, I mean they look okay... Not fantastic or anything. I personally like the lg g3 display. It doesn't have that saturated look that Apple pushes with almost all of their displays.
It's more like a Eizo or Ben-q monitor. I guess you just have to work on them for period of time to appreciate it..
Some folks will dislike the output and some will make the necessary color adjustments to the device. I have colleagues who have looked at footage or hi res pictures on my device and they like the output..
YMMV

The S4 and G2 displays are sti some very nice displays buddy. R2member they are still 1080p display.
With the galaxy s series phones you can calibrate the screen really good. On my issue is screen burn in.
The g2 to me is an okay display. The s4,wasn't something I cared for display wise. I still have my G2. I never noticed screen burn in with my g2
I tried using my calibrator on my g2 and I failed!!
When the new devices drop, it will be the same issues. The iPhone will have glue issues like they always. People will complain about the note 4 display until a few updates come out, and people will talk about the moto's radio more than anything else. The N6 will be buttery smooth , and that will be the sticking point for most with each particular device..
Power consumption concerning the higher end displays will be interesting with these devices..

What's also interesting will be if these displays actually change after being used for a while. My tv needed X amount of burn in time before the calibrator came out and to my place and did some adjustments to the tv.
If anyone can expound on if that is the case with these displays that would be interesting to get some source material on and read up on the subject.

LCD displays do in fact cure over time. They just like everything else typically take time to burn in.

How is the jelly effect or scroll stuttering?
is it exact same size and feel like OP5?
How is the Silicon case? is it very thick? increases size?

Comes with the plastic protector as with the OP5, the case is also included. It's nothing fancy but will do while the case manufacturers catch up.

The Jelly effect is not apparent this time. I have the OP5 also to compare. Screen is obviously just inverted back to the correct orientation.
The phone feels identical to the 5
And the free silicon case is pretty thin, probably wouldn't trust it in a drop however its nice they thought to include it at least until more cases are available.

The switching between apps by double tapping the recent button is very quick. Just as it was previously. I always set my animation scales to 0.5 anyway, but yes. It's good.

Call quality is on par with the 5 if you used that one. It's as expected from any flagship.
The screen is lovely. Super bright and the responsiveness is top notch. I love the slightly rounded edges also.
I'd like to see oneplus add a full screen mode into the file browser app for videos.

Yes, the screen doesn't seem to affect battery life at all either. I know from experience oneplus batteries get better with time. Or at least was the case with my 5. I topped an 8 hour SOT once. Looking forward to reaching similar levels with this.
The phone is very fluid.

Speaker is loud. Don't miss a dual front speaker tbh. It's sufficient here enough for my netflix binge watching and oh yeh, Netflix does utilize the full aspect ratio.
Honestly mate, Oneplus have nailed it. I love how the company is progressing. I just wish there was a little more transparency regarding a few internal issues with security.
