Before they made this jump, they should work on battery life if you ask me…

Why I found all my sour grapes here.

Choosing between $299 720p and $199 1080p display is a walk in the park.

Why can’t companies focus on battery?

More ram has a legitimate purpose. It allows for more apps to be stored in memory. 1080p in a 5 inch display has no advantage, and does nothing but slow the UI and drain battery.

Why are you complaining? You sound like the people who said 256KB should be enough memory for anyone back in the early days of computing.

So what if a 1080 screen is overkill. I still want it to be an option. This is the natural progression. Eventually we will have 4K screens and folks like you will be complaining for some reason.

Eh, I wouldn’t be surprised if the Note 3 being 1080p makes it look slightly better, depending on how close people like to hold it. Having a super high ppi also makes it possible for games to look more smooth and real, vs cartoony with all the edges looking too sharp. Though I don’t thing the adreno 320 is good enough to make a difference there. Either way I’d definitely rather have more rom or a better battery than 1080p though.

They don’t have anything competitive for Verizon though. My money is on it at least being available with them.

From the downvotes it looks like there are some techies with sensitive nipples.

But seriously 1080 on a phone is a complete waste: waste of money, waste of processing power, waste of battery, total waste. Even 1080 TVs need to >32 inch and viewed in good settings (proper distance, not too much ambient light) to be able to tell the difference between 1080 and 720.

A good 720 TV is better than a bad 1080 TV, same goes for phones. I’m sure it is a great screen, but watch, there will probably be roms to drop the resolution to give you better battery/speed with no noticeable difference in resolution.

HAHAHA I like your last sentence, I dont think Nokia phone camera’s are so much better than 8MP with HDR (like the Nexus 4 and *cough*iPhone*Cough*. HAHAHA I have so much against windows 8 phone, maybe because it is crap and in 6 months windows 9 phone will come out and no one will get updated HAHAHA those windows fanboys.

Completely agree. You shouldn’t say that kind of blasphemy around these spec whores though, otherwise known as 95 percent of DL readers. A bigger number is better, just like megapixels on cameras right?

No one said the screen was bad. You completely missed the point of his post.

Every review I read so far loves the screen on the DNA. Even the Apple fanboys at theverge gave it a 10 out of 10 for the display. Just face it, 1080p is the new benchmark when phones are released next year. And lets not forget that the price is excellent for what you get. I would have paid more for a removable battery and more memory. But for me I’m getting the Note 2 because it’s a well balanced package “if” you can handle the size.
