Do you want a 4K display on a phone? (poll results)
Whether you want it or not, you've got it: Sony has just officially taken the wraps off its Xperia Z5 Premium, the world's first smartphone with a 4K Ultra HD (3840 x 2160-pixel) resolution on a 5.5-inch screen, and yes - that works out to a whopping 800ppi+ of pixel density.
The phone is already a fact and will be available in the coming months as a direct competitor to the expected Apple iPhone 6s Plus, the Samsung Galaxy Note5, as well as the other high-end phablets.
Having this fresh official announcement at hand right now, though, is a reminder for us to take a look at what you, our readers, think about 4K displays on smartphones.
And (un)surprisingly, the majority of our users say a 'No' to 4K display: with over 3,000 total votes, more than 60% (62.6%) have said they don't want a 4K display on a smartphone. Admittedly, though, there are still nearly 40% (37.4%) that are actually in favor of a 4K screen on a phone.
The pros of a 4K display clearly lie in the larger number of pixels, but the jury is still out on whether the human eye - even with a perfect 20/20 vision - can differentiate between pixel densities above 300ppi at regular viewing distances. We guess that it will take a real-life blind test to find out, and we'll sure be doing that and comparing the 4K Z5 Premium against other, not so high-res 5.5-inch displays.
