Yesterday, renowned analyst Ming-Chi Kuo of the
firm KGI Securities affirmed according to its sources, that the iPhone
LCD with a screen size of 6.1 inches would not haveno dual photo sensor or 3D
Touch, however features could make it attractive.
Indeed, according to a new report from the Asian newspaper Commercial Times,
this iPhoneLCD display technology superior to
older generationsof iPhone signed Japan Display, which allows
of thevery thin bordersand oneresolution a little
particular.
The borders of Japan Display's Full Active LCD screens are much more
thinner than traditional LCD screens, eitherenviron 0,5 mm
against several millimeters, so againthinner than the borders of
l’iPhone X.
This Full Active LCD screen has a resolution of2,160 X 1080
pixelsand a18:9 screen ratio, which means
that the length is twice the width of the screen.
This means that the "LCD" iPhonea very screen
longwith a notch at the top for the TrueDepth camera, so a design
similar but with different dimensions.
It seems according to various experts that Full Active LCD screens offer the
same performance as OLED screens, but at a lower cost, this is what
would allow Apple to offer this iPhone X model as an “entry-level”
at the start of the 2018 school year.
For now, only the Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 uses this new type of display
LCD, but other smartphones should follow suit this year, and
potentially the iPhone X “LCD”.
This new report agrees with a Wall Street Journal publication
dating from September 2017, where it was argued that the Cupertino firmwould adopt
écrans LCD "Full Active"from Japan Display for certain iPhone models from
this 2018 generation.
