He's referring to the non-plus. The regular iPhone 8.Where does "750p" come from? "Plus" iPhones have been 1080p as long as they've existed.

I think he was implying there's no flagship iPhone with >750p resolution.He's referring to the non-plus. The regular iPhone 8.
Apple displays are laughable junk by Android standards. iPhone8 gets a 750p LCD while Android flagships get 1440p OLEDs. If an Android flagship showed up with 750p LCD display, they'd get laughed at. Even for the iPhoneX, Samsung sold Apple some 600 nits dim 1125p OLEDS, while keeping the 1000 nit bright 1440p screens for its own products. And they got a stupid notch in them, while Samsung gets more display to body ratio without the notch. Functionally, the notch is like having thousands of dead pixels on the side of your screen. It's just a stupid idea. It's no surprise only Essential is trying it on Android side.
I am not talking about phablets, only one handed phones. Samsung gives you AMOLED 1440p in non-plus form factor, and has been doing it since the S6. Apple gives you a ghetto 750p LCD screen. Which is fine by me, good for them for charging their users $700 for low end components, but there is no point arguing that 750p LCD is a low-end screen on Android side of things, with 1080p IPS/older AMOLED being mid-range, and 1440p AMOLED being high end. Even iPhone X is a midrange screen in Android land in terms of PPI and brightness. Somewhere between Galaxy S5 and S6, or 2 generations behind Samsung's latest and greatest. Look if you like Apple ecosystem (I don't), you gotta pay to play, but you are better off buying a used 6 or 6S. At least you are paying old crap prices for old crap.Where does "750p" come from?

Best accuracy on iPhone hasn't been true for the last year, maybe two. I believe screen tests started giving the nod to AMOLED over the iphone staring with the S7.How come android gimmick displays are comparable to iPhone displays?
Iphone displays have the best accuracy and enough resolution for a phone. After all we are not talking about 4k tvs. Why you need a 1000 nits on a mobile display unless u r living in sahara all day? Apple Watch needs a higher brightness screen as its screen is small in size and total light reaching out eyes would still be less than that of an iPhone screen.
Iphone get things done. That's the most important part here.

Doesn't look like your precious iPhone has best colour accuracy either.
Check anadtech reviews. Looks like your site is partial

The guy sells display calibration gear... No reason for him to be biased.
They sell it for money. The same could be the reason.

^ honestly I can't make out what point you're trying to make, but the iPhone 8 does have wireless charging.
Even Apple can't 'feature tease' that blatantly.
Yes. In 2010 the iPhone 4 introduced a “retina” display with 4x the pixels, and that’s when Android device manufacturers started tripping over themselves to one-up each other in a pointless DPI race. It really is kinda silly to go over 1080p for a handheld device smaller than 7 inches.Depends what you define as a high-DPI display I guess. Regular sized iPhones are 326ppi and have been since the iPhone 4 (which had a 3.5 inch screen at 960x640).
I'd say, personally, that you cant start talking about decent screen resolutions and densities until you hit at least full HD resolutions.

Four times the pixel? What resolution were the other phones at the time? I think most android were in the 800*400 range, which is not a quarter of 960*640
Or are you talking about comparing to iphone 3gs, which was 480*320?

Yeah, he's referring to the jump over the 3GS. You saw 800x480 Android phones at the time, but the lower res and larger screens meant that the improvement was relatively modest compared to what Apple was offering. The iPhone 4 was probably the first phone where everything felt almost print-like in terms of fidelity. Apple is now relatively modest when it comes to resolution, but at the time it was an unambiguous advantage.
Do you want the screen to be 10 inch as it is 2017?It's 2017, not 2010. 720p is fine for a $100 burner phone, not $700 flagship. Also, what's the point of having a nice new GPU tied to a low res screen?
