Samsung Squeezes 640×480 pixels on 1.98″ Display
Another innovation from the Korean electronics giant, Samsung. The company claims that they are the first to demonstrate actual VGA resolution on a cellphone-sized display (1.98″) and they are flaunting the fact that the display shows ten times more detail than your garden-variety 40″HD LCD TV.
The presentation was held at San Francisco, California in the annual Society for Information Display International Conference and Exhibition which is known for being the launchpad of some of the most advanced communications contraptions around. The amorphous silicon TFT-LCD displayed a total of 307,200 pixels (640×480 pixels) on its screen area.
The developers and manufacturers of this revolutionary achievement said that the LCD is capable of running a pixel density of 400 pixels per inch (ppi). 400 ppi, so what? This means that the clarity of its pictures show visual details as small as 63 microns, which is about half the width of a human hair…Amazing!
Samsung plans to bless their upcoming top-of-the-line cellular phones with this LCD so that their future mobile phones’ display of Windows documents and screens is at par with the displays of most desktop and laptops nowadays. Although I doubt if they will claim that they are the first to dish out a VGA phone because Sharp has beaten them in that field already with the release of their VGA phone – the Sharp 904SH more than a month ago.
