4K Display to introduce in 2015

4K Display to introduce in 2015


The display wars are on and looks like they won't be ending anytime soon. While bendable and curved screens seem to be the latest craze, improved pixel count and density are also concern areas which phone-makers are tackling.

Samsung is often the pioneer of new display technologies be it the bendable, flexible Youm display or the 2K screen to reportedly debut with the Samsung Galaxy S5 this year at MWC. So it comes as no surprise that the jump to 4K for smartphones will be made by Samsung too. And looks like the move is not far off. It will be in 2015 that Samsung plans to announce smartphones with a 4K display.

Samsung announced their decision to introduce 4K display screens in 2015 at the Semiconductor and Display Technology Roadmap Seminar 2014 in South Korea. 


Currently, there are a variety of displays that smartphones boast of. From Fluuy HD to FHD to IPS display, we have them all. However, the highest resolution display or the fully HD displays with a resolution of 1080p. 2K will now offer 2560 x 1440 pixels, two times that of a regular HD screen. Similarly, 4K displays will offer 4 times the pixel count and clarity.

Improved displays mean better reading and better clarity. Also, they are a lesser strain to the eye. Since smartphones are slowly replacing everyday objects, a better screen just means a better experience.

MS Dhoni’s return catch was big moment in the match: Kane Williamson

MS Dhoni’s return catch was big moment in the match: Kane Williamson New Zealand skipper Kane Williamson lauded his bowlers for drying up the runs during India’s chase in the second ODI here, terming Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s brilliant return catch by Tim Southee as a “big moment” in the match. When asked about how the bowlers and fielders responded while defending a low total, Williamson said: “Someone like MS Dhoni, he can finish matches when he is allowed to play his shots. He is the best in the world. That catch was big for us.” Williamson was happy with the manner his bowlers responded on a tricky surface and also gave an insight to how some adjustments led to the Indian skipper playing 37 dot balls. “On this kind of a surface (Kotla), scrapping was important. You needed to put the ball in areas where it’s tough to get away and try and build that pressure. It was an extremely good effort considering that the ball was damp due to dew factor...

NOKIA X REVIEW

The smartphone maker believes it will act as a 'feeder' for its Lumia phone range and make the first time smartphone users feel at home before they graduate to high-end alternatives. But does Nokia X live up to the hype surrounding it, or is it a case of too little, too late from the fabled Finnish firm? We find out in our review. Build & design Nokia X takes design cues from both Nokia Lumia 520/525 and Asha 503. It sports the same rectangular design and a colourful polycarbonate shell, which is a bit chunky. As soon as you notice the Asha-like capacitive button with the arrow label at the front, just below the screen, you realize it is not a Windows Phone device. Also, unlike the Lumia 525/520, the edges of the phone are sharp and not rounded. The edges at the front feel roug...
