Pretty sure you could generate a list like that for Samsung, Microsoft and Google as well.
It says nothing for the veracity of the items on the list. They could be manufactured by fanbois as far as we know.
Ian Jenkins
Target demographics.
Also, if you don't want Pentile, you've the iPhone 8.
Asher Adams
Apple has an especially large cult because it costs more so it has to be better and people who buy it can't admit they wasted money so they justify it every way they can

>there hasn't been a proper RGB-stripe OLED-screen since 2011

Nobody is as petty about this shit as applel.
Mason Baker
the same reason they shit on sony compact series 720p resolution on a 4,6" but they love sucking apple cock for their 750p resolution on a 4,7" screen.
Daniel White
like the galaxy s5 with pentile and similar ppi to the iphone x looked like shit in terms of sharpness, so considering apple uses a samsung screen with the exact same everything why are people saying they don't notice the pixelation?
are they really just paid off shills? how can people have so little integrity.
Bentley Russell
cuz Stone Cold said so bitch
Levi Fisher
Tbf I've never heard anyone complaining about Galaxies having a pentile.
But also tbf they're over 550ppi, so you can't tell even from up close.
Luke Hughes
Pentile doesn't matter when it's at a high PPI. iPhone X, S8, note 8 all have a high enough ppi for it to not be noticeable. The OnePlus 5 is only 1080p, and it is very noticeable on it.

>hehe, of course I'm ok with paying $1000 for a subpar-display. who needs three subpixels per pixel anyway!?
how's HDR looking with that shittier-pentile-crap anyway?
Justin Diaz
Better than IPS LCD.
Benjamin Lewis
Pentile isn't noticeable at 720p.
Asher Jackson
They are worse, they are free of charge shills.
Jaxson Cooper
If a reviewer doesn't have the iPhone at launch, they're losing out on a ton of clicks/views for their site or youtube channel. That unbox therapy dude had this happen, though he went and bought the phone anyway.
Joseph Morgan
Yes it is, it was extremely noticeable when I used my old s3.
Logan Thomas
FUD fanboys apple spread pentile FUD until Apple use OLED, over 2013 OLED become superior screen tech.
Thomas Barnes
Just fuck my shit up fampai.
James Bailey
Apple don't reduce price products over the year,making people buy it after date release,making news site get a lot traffic $$$$$ if get review units.

The same as on all the AMOLED phones, pentile. I think LG's OLED phones use more blue sub pixels than green which is weird.
At this point I think the only mobile devices to use OLED screens with proper RGB sub pixels were the Samsung Galaxy S2 and the first generation of the Playstation Vita.

>considering apple uses a samsung screen with the exact same everything
>uses a samsung screen
When will this meme end? They have repeatedly said that they designed the panel themselves, and just had samsung manufacturer it. Not only that, but it undeniably looks good in person. And that's coming from a lifelong android user.
I know its easy to hate on apple because "hurrr muh shiny", but why deny reality? They designed a fantastic looking display. If anything, I hope this makes the otherwise incompetent android OEMs give an actual shit next year about display quality.
Julian Foster
apple "designed" the look but samsung puts all the technology and work into making the screen a reality. if Apple went with LG then you know you would get a crappy display.
Wyatt Davis
Depend about means design.
Like AMD design graphics chips to Intel or Apple design SoC.
Apple lacks tech to build own design OLED.
Carson Reyes

They have literally been working on OLED tech for years. Just because they don't actually fab the parts doesn't mean that they aren't using their own designs. And as is the case with all displays, a huge amount of what makes it look good comes from calibration and tuning. And apple certainly did that themselves.
Why would we deny that the screen looks better? I mean, all it does is make android users look like petulant children. If apple put out a better display, fucking good on them. I hope that drives competition.
Logan Parker
>a huge amount of what makes it look good comes from calibration and tuning. And apple certainly did that themselves.
Well tuning display =! Own design.
en.wikipedia.org
Design and fabrication display begins together TFT,film,chemistry OLED need a lot patent in design and fabric,Apple could get nice configuration from OLED Samsung but will need a lot patent just to begin able create own design.
Julian Perry
Ok, you are just scraping the barrel for pedantic bullshit at this point, so I'm going to go ahead and leave this thread. Feel free to believe you "won" or whatever. Keep living that lie, user.
Jose Gomez
>use more blue sub pixels than green which is weird.
they use more blue sub pixels because blue pixels burn out sooner so a larger blue pixel area can be dimmer and live longer.
