Traditional TFT LCD of the N900 and the new SLCD !
 

Can anyone here explain me is S-LCD the next generation of the TFT LCD does it offer a dramatic improvement in display ( I am not really looking out for a very technical explanation just need to know from a user perspective) is it great fun watching in SLCD compared to the traditional TFT LCD display that the N900 has. If yes, How much the difference between the TFT LCD of the N900 and SLCD would be ?

google might be a better resource for this question

The screen is so sharp that the bikini girls will look nekkid.

And your 2D edition of Avatar will play in 3D. Even older movies like Gladiator or Top Gun will play in 3D.

^ and people come out of the screen and do your dishes also ?

a while ago i read about this glassesless 3D TV that had this system that used a "special" algorithm to recognize 3D information in 2D footage and render it in 3D live, dunno if it ever got in production

Hey Thanks for this.

So in This order first is the SLCD then is the LCD and then the Amoled.

Sad HTC Desire screen is better than that of the N900 :(

Re: Traditional TFT LCD of the N900 and the new SLCD !
 

is there a way we can put slcd on n900 or amoled if its resistive touch?

Re: Traditional TFT LCD of the N900 and the new SLCD !
 

C'mon guys I want a comparison between the SLCD screen of the HTC-Desire and the N900...Which one is better ?

Re: Traditional TFT LCD of the N900 and the new SLCD !
 

Wikipedia says

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_displays_by_pixel_density

HTC Desire has 252 Pixel Per Inch (PPI) while the N900 has 267 Pixels Per Inch (PPI) So the PPI ratio of N900 is higher, even though the Desire is S-LCD versus the LCD of N900. Does that conclude that the Image Quality and the display on the N900 would be better than that of Desire's even though the Desire is S-LCD.

Re: Traditional TFT LCD of the N900 and the new SLCD !
 

People get confused about the quality of an image, or more frequently what something sounds like. The easy answer is go into a phone shop with your N900 and compare the two screens side by side. Which ever looks best to you is the better one.

I'm not trying to be funny here, it works for Hi-Fi. I spent £100 less on a CD player back in the nineties (yes, I'm old) because to me it sounded better than the more expensive one I'd also shortlisted. For simple .jpgs and even fairly high quality videos it should be down to personal preference. Technical specifications are all well and good, but it is you that percieves the end result and has to live with it.

Re: Traditional TFT LCD of the N900 and the new SLCD !
 

What if someone doesnt have either of those and is trying to buy one out of these two for the first time, then the comparison becomes difficult with a physical Inspection of both...Cant have both in hands and inspect...

Re: Traditional TFT LCD of the N900 and the new SLCD !
 

Why is it so difficult ? My local CPW still stocks the N900 and the HTC Desire, not to mention umpteen different hand held devices. I appreciate that not every one can, but it is the easiest way to compare things like screen and external speakers along with the general 'feel' of a device, even if you only get five minutes with each one.

My point is that peeps get too tangled up in technical things when actually holding a thing and comparing it with another at the same time is the way to go. Specfications and the like can only go so far in telling you what a device is actually goiing to perform lke.

Re: Traditional TFT LCD of the N900 and the new SLCD !
 

Buying a device such as these based solely on screen is like buying a car based on the colour of the tyres.

FInd a shop that sells both and compare.

If shops only sell one or the other then go to one shop look at display and note, go to other shop and look at display and compare mentally. If you can't compare mentally then neither display is obviously "better" than the other.

Re: Traditional TFT LCD of the N900 and the new SLCD !
 

Can we have some real Comaparative discussion rather than some philosophical suggestion on how it ought to be done. If someone has one...

Re: Traditional TFT LCD of the N900 and the new SLCD !
 

You can count pixels, try and find the contrast ratio of different screens and the refresh rate of the screens. Whether a device has a dedicated GPU (that is utilised fully) could affect performance of a screen as well.

I would hardly call the 'bloomin obvious' philosophical though. Personal preference has much to offer. While not a substitute on it's own for technical specifications it has to be a large part of any sensible decision when parting with cash.

Re: Traditional TFT LCD of the N900 and the new SLCD !
 

So in this case How does the N900 stand ?

Re: Traditional TFT LCD of the N900 and the new SLCD !
 

I can tell you the n900 screen is completely usable in direct sunlight and the Desire's is not as good in these conditions.

Re: Traditional TFT LCD of the N900 and the new SLCD !
 

Yeah sure I know about that...But other than that hows the image and colour quality of the N900 when compared to some newcomers with an SLCD display like that of the HTC-Desire.

Re: Traditional TFT LCD of the N900 and the new SLCD !
 

Specs ought to be online so you can compare to your hearts content. It seems you are looking for someone to TELL you which one is better?

Re: Traditional TFT LCD of the N900 and the new SLCD !
 

.........................yes !!

Re: Traditional TFT LCD of the N900 and the new SLCD !
 

Nothing can compete with Clear Black Amoled :D

Re: Traditional TFT LCD of the N900 and the new SLCD !
 

Some Part of the world the HTC-Desire is also sold with SLCD So I am talking here about SLCD vs N900 LCD I know Amoled is the best but I am not comparing Amoled vs N900. I am talking between SLCD(HTC-Desire) and N900 LCD.

Re: Traditional TFT LCD of the N900 and the new SLCD !
 

have you ever bought a tv? you can run through all the stats, lcd vs plasma vs dlp, 1080p, contrast, reaction time, blah blah blah. it dont mean much til you see the quality, screens may look good on paper and suck in real life. its not philosophy its common sense and good advice. you want to know which is best then have a look yourself.

Re: Traditional TFT LCD of the N900 and the new SLCD !
 

Agree with festivaslnut.

I have a 37" HD ready LCD toshiba from 5 years ago, cost my ALOT.
My brother just bought a new Philips Full HD 42" with great specs, cost almost as much as my toshiba did (which is a lot today).

The Toshiba is much more fun to watch, and the philips is odd with all the video smoothing and who knows what algorithms they run to improve the picture.

Facts are the toshiba with 5 years old technology pawns the super new philips with cutting edge led panel.

Re: Traditional TFT LCD of the N900 and the new SLCD !
 

You have to try them. Head to head test. The N900 is not good in bright sunlight.

Re: Traditional TFT LCD of the N900 and the new SLCD !
 

Well I'm telling you, CRT is the bestest :rolleyes:

Discussion over. Go back to sleep.

Re: Traditional TFT LCD of the N900 and the new SLCD !
 

god! Of all the people who posted here... @.@ the OP was asking your personal choice. That's it nothing more nothing less. Why bother typing so much words instead of typing the device name of your choice.
BTW for me it's n900 when it comes to screen, pixel count matters. On image printing? That's a different story.

Re: Traditional TFT LCD of the N900 and the new SLCD !
 

Exactly ! I know Amoled is way to ahead in terms of technology and being the next generation of Display screens so the screen of N900 cannot be a match to it. But how is S-LCD in terms of display when compared with the N900.
