The only way too tell if there is a difference is to do an A/B comparison.

Can you really tell the difference between the two? I mean, really..

It's quantity vs quality. It's like the megapixel race. The resolution means absolutely nothing if the sensor and software isn't good. Same here - the amount of colours means nothing if the display is not a good one and the software isn't good. is best on displays, no discussion needed there. The best colour saturation and very very good light in most displays from SE.

Anyone disagreeing have either tried a faulty one or an old one, and I am NOT going to debate. It's a no-brainer and a fact - SE's got the best displays. Period.

Samsung displays are almost similar, or better than SE's. I'm not talking about the big touch screen phones, but the U700, U900 or D900

D900 is so last year. You see one D900 today, and will be much disappointed by the screen quality. It was very good in its era, but not felt like it used to be anymore today.

U700 is yellowish. U900 is better one.
Still.. SE's better with the offering in such Z770 (no ambient light sensor, brighter than 2.2" in C702 and K850, also very good gamma, saturation and contrast) or K660 (so far the brightest one, smaller diagonal though, better saturation, but worse gamma than Z770).

Agree. The latest SEs screens are really good. Brighter, better saturation, better viewing angle, better white-black colors (meaning better contrast), better view in direct sunlight, than Samsung's latest phones.

Better view in direct sunlight... YEAH, that's what I want the most about 's displays... You can use the phone on direct sunlight without having any problems...

Some manufacturers use 16M screens just for marketing. It's like the megapixel race, the more doesn't mean the better. If someone buys a phone, and cannot decide between the two, the 18bit and 24bit screens might make him/her buy the "better" one.

Also if you think you need a better screen, create a gradient image in photoshop, gimp, etc, make it a vertical gradient, from white to black. If you can spot the exact lines when the color is changed, you might need a 24bit screen, otherwise definitely not. (if you make a gradient, it means you will see 256 different shades of white/black. On a 16bit screen only 64 shades can be seen, which means if the image is also 256 pixel height, every 4 rows will have the exact color, only the 5th one will be different. If you can spot this "jump" in colors, then you have good eyes

And also note that phones usually work in 16bit mode and switch to higher bit modes (18bit or 24bit) only when watching images (for performance and memory reasons).

Don't be fooled by the digits.. just like 18bit and 24bit.. more colours heavy processing.. means slow performance.. 18bit is enough for a phone..
