Nope, sorry...it's still highly noticeable. I've run it past 3 people in my office. They all notice the blurry text and the status bar being blurry along with the icons looking pixelated. Especially noticeable with an Evo side by side.
The "good" screen in the other thread is actually an even bigger picture than mine yet it doesn't look as bad to me. I think that one is hardly noticeable yet it is just as magnified. The status bar doesn't look like mine does, and the colors look more full without the black dots. Those images are huge.
But hey, if you don't notice it, good for you. Me, I'm going to say the phenomenal battery life I'm getting even with the screen being 25% of the usage per the battery stats is kind of worth it even though I am bothered by the effect.
I think anyone who says it isn't noticable either does not have good eye sight or they are probably not telling the truth.
It is noticable, but it's just how much does it bother you? I've said myself I notice all phones have pixelation. This one is better than some, but really no screen is good enough for me LOL
I had other important things to me like sound quality and build quality. Everyone has different needs for a phone and what they will put up with. This is not the worst out there. Different but not the worst than some.
I watched that video three times on my phone and on my laptop as well as the tablet (I don't have the EVO next to me). Compared to the laptop - which is as near as natural as I can get - the blues and greens are always over saturated. That's one I can live with.
On low level I see a hint of yellow and orange saturation. At medium bright level it was more noticable and on 100% it was getting into the red oversaturation but then the blues and greens were over the top bad.
On my tablet for fun, the MoPho had about the same saturation levels at lowest as my tablet did at brightest. The phone, though is brighter in general IMO than even my tablet. Much easier to see in the sun. However I think at highest levels the tablet is far more realistic. When I am in the sun with my phone though (only device I use outdoors often) I do want it to be visible more than I care about accurate.
For kicks I also looked at it on my old Intercept. I only did it because it (other than being way more pixelated) reminds me of the AMOLED screens in look and I don't feel like going to Verizon to look at the Super AMOLED + screeen they have there
The blues were very poor - definitely low. The reds were over the top obnoxious and the yellows were too saturated as well. That is typical IMO to Samsung phones. Like I said they remind me of Kodak and the MoPho reminds me of Fuji.
I watched it at 360p as well on all devices. I prefer my HD screen most obviously, next probably my tablet and then my MoPho being honest. But the tablet is a bigger/better screen anyway so it is to be expected.
Holding the two phones side by side reminded me of my very bias against Samsung now though. So please take into consideration after years of owning Samsung I didn't realize how much I hated them until after getting the MoPho. I feel rotten that I talked my dad into getting my old phone, and he has a year more for an upgrade.
