Apple iPhone X screen falls short of promises, lawsuit says

Midge1986

This lawsuit just shows these people don’t know how to read.

On all the pages that talk about the tech specs it clearly states they work out the screen size based on it having square corners, for example the iPhone XR is actually 6.06”, and then state the actual viewing area will be less (due to the rounded corners and the notch).

Apple don’t advertise the pixel density - they advertise the pixel resolution. This is the same as all phone companies. But this is why some people prefer LCD because to them the screen is better. However, why the density may not be as great, because the OLED display pixels differently you end up with better colour accuracy, deeper blacks, better contrast ratio, etc.

Also, Samsung wasn’t the only maker of the iPhone screens.

So I’m not really sure what their lawsuit is. Are they going to sue all the phone companies because they also advertise ‘false’ specs because they have notches and rounded edges and some also have rounded corners - the phones using OLED rarely advertise the pixel density and only the resolution.

So if they are sueing Apple they really need to be sueing all the companies if they want this to even be considered a valid lawsuit.
