Samsung Galaxy Nexus comes up short on sub-pixels
Bad news, folks. The sexy looking Samsung Galaxy Nexus, the world's first Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich smartphone, has an inferior OLED display. Close-up photography of the phone's 4.7in panel taken by website FlatPanelsHD reveal the Galaxy Nexus' OLED uses Samsung's PenTile pixel layout. Samsung Galaxy Nexus display close-up …
Well, duh.
It's a Super AMOLED screen, not a Super AMOLED+.

The super isn't 'marketing bollocks' - Samsung uses SAMOLED to mean that the touchscreen is integrated into the display cells, and SAMOLED+ to mean SAMOLED with traditional subpixels. It may be marketing, but it isn't bollocks.
so what
I really do not care, if it is an issue to you then get a better life.
Quite
Mine's only Super LCD, which means nothing at all to me, and I can't see anything wrong with it.
Well you wouldn't see anything wrong with S-LCD would you? It's standard RGB not PenTile.
perhaps it just me...

Zoom in on the actual edge of the phone (the plastic case) and you just get a blur!
Using that rubbish to try to state anything about the screen quality is just cobblers.
Just because your phone claims to be 5, 8 or even 10 megapixels does not mean the pictures are any better than a could be achieved with shoe box with a pin whole.
"That means that instead of each pixel comprising the distinct sub-pixels - reg, green and blue"
Tony, you have far more serious things to be concerned with ;-)
Missed the Gag?
Perhaps he missed it because it was not, errm, funny?
The funny quotient is certainly what I use to identify gags.
