Thanks for writing this article together with the pictures and the video. The rear key looks very promising and the near zero bezel makes a huge difference compared to other phones.

Lamang sa GPU benchmarks kase yung pinupush na screen resolution ng 5S eh 1160×640 LANG. Pero ang pinupush ng most android flagships ay 1920×1080. Panong di lalamang ang iToy mo niyan. Haha

Nope. Lamang yung G2 sa karamihan ng benchmarks.

@ralph it depends on one’s preference. IPS has brighter whites while smaoled has deeper blacks. Kung mahilig kang magbrowse sa internet sa smartphone mo,mas maganda ang IPS pero kung mas hilig mo manood ng videos and movies and the like,samoled mas preferred. sa preference ko mas maganda parin IPS kasi mas hindi siya grainy di tulad sa samoled,for ex. ung 800X480 sa sgs3 mini sobrang grainy nya kahit 233 naman ang ppi nya. tska ayoko rin ng oversaturated colors,mas gusto ko ung IPS na natural alng ang kulay =)

same ba sa retina display tong IPS? @abuzalzal. sa amoled prone sa burn yung screen e.

LG displays are nice.

Pero mas maganda screen ng S4 imo. No doubt. Ive compared G & G Pro’s screen to my S4 para sakin mas masarap tignan ang amoled ng Samsing. Masarap!! lolz
abuzalzal says:

ips = better outdoor visibility, better colors, white pages will display as paper white

Samoled = deeper blacks, energy efficient, color saturation levels are adjustable

I don’t think na tatalunin ng S4/Note3 ang screen ng G2, huwag ka ng magpagod brad lol, mas maganda talaga ips hehe
