[Motorola Droid RAZR] wilbur-force:
sorry .... i probably 'quoted' the wrong post :)

just trying to suggest that this is probably going to be a better display than what most of us 'currently' have and probably in the top 5 (?) displays out on the market (or due out imminently) ???

or am i wrong .... ?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Fif23:
construction ALONE is a good enough reason to get this.

The cheap 4$ plastic of the Sasmsungs doesn't justify even a 1080p display, it just looks and feels like 98' cheap gameboy.... Not to mention the SGS screen is one of the worst in the industry today with absolutely NO WHITES and a green hue all over the place.. It's just a very bad engineered screen to fit Samsung's cheap phone.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] wilbur-force:
True ... construction is a biggy for me. i run a junior football squad (soccer for our American friends) and my phone is often used in the wind and rain around mud etc.

My Desire has stood up pretty well but (in my opinion) the Desire has been the last of the 'sturdy' HTC builds .... to be honest I really fancy a change from HTC too. Will I miss sense ? possibly, however my current 'build' is a Senseless ROM anyway.

I like the look of the RAZR, and need an SD slot (or at least 32gb - which seems to rule out the UK Nexus). Wavering, but the RAZR is still front runner ....
[Motorola Droid RAZR] zetsumeikuro:
Yes it will be one of the "better' displays on the market for sure. Regardless of it having a PenTile matrix, it still has good color saturation and unmatched visibility outdoors. I will have my RAZR in another 2-3 days or so, and I will report back here with how the screen is.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] guitarevan07:
I was disgusted by the screen because I wanted it to be leaps and bounds better than the bionic screen, and it wasn't. It was just slightly better.

You all will love you're phones I'm sure, I'm just a snob about the pentiles. For some reason I can't stand it. Especially after looking at the gsII screens. bleh.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] bond32:
Me too. But after playing with one for about 10 min the screen on the razr looks beautiful to me. And with the bionic right next to it, I see a huge difference. Thats just me though.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Fif23:
Sir, if you think the SGS-II screen is a better screen, then your statement regarding the Razr screen kinda loses some of it's validity because scientifically, the SGS-II screen is showing you FAKE colors, the white is really really dark, under ANY brightness setting, and the rest of the picture is GREEN in such high levels that it's an insult to any good set of eyes.

In the comparison pictures I have seen, the RAZR's panel, although similar, has MUCH better whites and less of a green hue.

If you meant that you liked the SMOOTHNESS of the SGS screen, in term of pixel arrangement, then maybe ! I'll see when I get one.

The way I see it, the IPHONE has the most advanced, natural display on the market today... Nothing comes close really.

BUT the overall package of the RAZR is what's appealing.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] edmcrocker:
thank you for your thoughts.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] guitarevan07:
I would MUCH rather have th SGSII screen than the Razr's. Like I said, the pentile is just horrible in my opinion. Maybe you're right about the greens and all. I'm just saying first impressions, when I picked up the phone, the pentile was noticeable. Make me look back at my iphone and be like, wtf is this?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] gtrab:
This is what Gizmodo's review says about the screen:

"We ragged on the Bionic's screen pretty hard. The RAZR's is a lot better. It's not perfect, but it's better. The new Droid's screen is Super AMOLED Advanced. What does the "Advanced" mean? Seriously, nobody has any idea, which means it's probably just marketing speak. "Advanced" aside, its Super AMOLEDness delivers deep blacks and vivid, accurate colors. There's still some pixilation, though. In fact, it's almost as severe as the Bionic's, but with the increased saturation and straight-up deliciousness, it doesn't draw your attention quite as much. It's certainly not as sharp as the 720p display on the HTC Rezound or the iPhone 4S' Retina, but it certainly won't make your eyes bleed."

[Motorola Droid RAZR] adamdipro:
I gotta say I really don't care whether it is pentile or RGB, I just want to be able to view sites in desktop mode without having to zoom in, (sites like engadget), and still be able to CLEARLY read text beyond the like headlines. At this point, I have yet to see a pentile screen where I can do this...

I was disappointed when I got a Nexus S because I couldn't view pages as well as I used to on my much older Motorola Milestone (Droid 1). And the Atrix, even with its qHD display appeared to be a step backwards from the Milestone. This is one of the things I like to do to test out a new phone, and I have a feeling the RAZR will disappoint in this regard. Out of all of the phones I have checked out lately, the HTC Raider (Vivid in the US) appears to have the clearest rendering of websites in full desktop mode. Regardless, the RAZR's screen is still a step forward and I would really like to see it in person, but until then, threads like this and OP's opinion provide an interesting read.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] meta96:
android is choice ...

... i played with the razr for 10min and i just can say it`s a great device, pure black, nice reading ... pentile or not, cool phone.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] supasoju:
I have horrible eye sights... I couldnt tell the difference between Razr and OG Droid..

But do you think screen quality really matter when most of time you dim your screen to save battery throughout the day?

[Motorola Droid RAZR] Semseddin:
Pentile or Not. Even my atrix's pentile lcd is better than that highly welcomed ****ty SGS2 samoled screen. SGS and SGS2 screen is the worst screen that i've ever seen but everybody said it was the best in its time. I believe %80 of the samsung consumers are like sheeps and naturally follow their shepard's way even without a clue.

My only concern about the display, if it can show the white as white as my atrix or photon does. I've seen the Atrix2(samoled,too) couldn't since i compared three side by side.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] fflan513:
Went to Verizon and had a "hands on" with the RAZR and It was awesome. The display was very sharp, colors looked so rich and deep; the display is much better than the Bionic. Just awesome.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] zetsumeikuro:
All I gotta say is I'm in awe of my RAZR. Picking it up you can really feel the quality build of the phone. It's been awhile since I've held hardware that was actually carefully crafted and durable. The screen looks amazing and watching Netflix HD on the RAZR is a joy. Yes you can see a little jaggedness on the text but that's if you're like holding your face right up to the phone. But then again that's pretty much true to any display even high end monitors. All in all I'd say everything on this phone is great. I am happy with the display and will enjoy this device.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] kholk:
The SGS2 screen is the best screen that I've ever seen. And I've had a lot of phones. Including the ATRIX.

Really, the ATRIX screen is the worst one I've ever seen. Even my old HD2's LCD screen is better.

And as a side note, I've owned a LOT of HTC devices and some Moto ones...

...HTC is really poor for its phones' shells quality and its cameras (compared to other manufacturers). I can remember my Desire Z camera compared to my Motorola V3x. 5MPx vs 2MPx. Android vs SinergyOS. MSM7230 vs Motorola MCore. Quality was nearly the same.

The SGS2 is the first Samsung device I've ever owned and it's really, really, really good.

Anyway, I hope the RAZR screen, being AMOLED, is better than the one found in ATRIX! :)
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Semseddin:
You did have an engineering sample atrix, didnt you ? Maybe the panel is different maybe something else. I work in a cellphone shop doing techical stuff and selling at the same time. Some customers ask me to let them compare phone screens side by side and when i put atrix / s2 , they always chosen the atrix. Maybe it's their eyes fault or mine to choose atrix screen over s2, whatever.

V3X ? I used to mod it to the deepest in times. It was one of those motos which was ahead of its time.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] JasonJoel:
I had an Atrix and a Droid X2, as well of a ton of other phones. I'm not really sold on the SGS2 screen (too garish for me), but I am defniitely done with pentile displays. It is a personal preference, I guess.

Once you notice the jaggedness, there is no ignoring it. And there is nothing you can do about it. Text looks much worse when compared to non-pentile. Whether it bothers you enough to matter is a personal decision, though.

I looked at a Razr yesterday, put it right back after about 2 minutes of playing with it. Thumbs down on the screen.

Will look at a Rezound Monday.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] syntrix:
Just my two cents for the spec crunchers:

I currently have a Droid Charge and the screen is absolutely beautiful, and it's only 216.977ppi

RAZR has 256 on the same sized screen... I think that everyone is holding the phone up to their nose to compare :D

Plus there are apps to unblur the samsung displays (yes, they blur the screen slightly stock), so maybe there will be apps to blur the razr screen for these people complaining about the screen.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] fadishehadeh:
Screen is great!
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Mootarjim:
For what it's worth, I've had the Thunderbolt since its launch, and I just got my Razr last night. The Razr's screen is crisp, and I only notice the Pentile if I'm really looking for it. This screen is at least as good as the Thunderbolt's, if not better.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] kvs678:
I would like to clear things up.

When the Nexus One/Droid Incredible, Nexus S, and the original Galaxy S line of devices was introduced, all with Pentile displays, the amount of complaints regarding the Pentile technology was much less than it is regarding these new devices today. Many people today still do not discern an inferiority of the displays of these devices versus non-Pentile screens.

There are two main types of Pentile technology: RGBG (which uses a green subpixel) and RGBW (which uses a white subpixel).

The Nexus One/Droid Incredible, Nexus S, as well as the Galaxy S phones, use RGBG Pentile.

The Motorola devices with Pentile screens, including the Atrix, X2, and the Bionic use RGBW. These phones have been greatly criticized for their pixelation, cross-hatching effect, etc.

Strangely, even though the Razr is equipped with a RGBG Pentile display, it suffers the same issues as previous Motorola devices.

Even though the Super AMOLED Advanced screen on the Razr is manufactured by Samsung, it suffers similar issues as other Motorola screens. Furthermore, it is reported to have poor colors and white balance as compared to other Super AMOLED screens made by Samsung. This means that whatever Motorola is doing with the displays on their phones isn't working out so well.

It has been confirmed that the Galaxy Nexus sports the less-noticeable RGBG Pentile technology, and being a Samsung device, hopefully will not have the display issues of the Razr.

I just thought I would provide my two cents regarding this, as well as some of the conclusions I have reached after doing some research.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] infamousjax:
The Razr is RGBG.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] kvs678:
Thank you for correcting that typo.

I have corrected my original post, and reworded it to make my point a little clearer.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] broomulack:
I got this phone today as well, and I can't notice the pentile factor. Even when looking for it, I don't see it. I am coming from a Bionic, which was a great phone but when the phone was asleep and you held it to the light at the right angle, it looked like a checker board. I don't see that with this phone.

It's got a GREAT display. Much better than the Bionic, comparable with Samsung displays (also had the Charge for awhile).

---------- Post added at 11:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:15 PM ----------

I honestly don't think the screen is subpar at all. The camera is 100x better than the one on the Bionic, which was almost comically slow.

---------- Post added at 11:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:16 PM ----------

Same here. In my opinion it's a much better screen than the one on the Bionic.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] NZtechfreak:
For people wondering about the Nexus screen - I'm pretty sure it will be fine - my Note which has a lower DPI screen is excellent, and even at it's lower density you can only notice the pentile if you look very hard. My Razr on the other hand doesn't fare so well, I notice the pentile easily - despite it's increased density it looks similar to my Galaxy S to be honest. Whether that's an issue for anyone is an individual thing.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Rythmyc:
+1 to this. I have a Droid Charge, and the screen difference is TREMENDOUS. Granted Motorola has taken a step in the right direction, the problem is they are taking baby steps where leaps are needed. The screen is now on par with Samsung screens earlier this year. I don't notice a "construction" difference with this phone vs a Samsung phone either. Then again, I find Samsung phones to have very good construction for the simple fact that it's not iPhone fragile. You can drop it, and the most it's going to do is scratch a little. Even if it "feels" cheap, it's not.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] ianford10:
I seem to be having a slight issue with my display.

Sometimes when the phone has been off and I switch it on again my wallpaper has lines in it and looks all jagged. The icons and all other stuff looks fine but the wallpaper looks terrible. The only way to sort it is to choose the wallpaper again and set it and presto all is good again.

Anyone else noticed this happening or am I the only one?
[Motorola Droid RAZR] jroc:
I only notice it if I'm looking for it at distance closer than MY normal viewing distances and if I'm looking at it closer than MY normal viewing distance.

And its not like its the entire screen. Its letters, edges of some things here n there, probably with specific backgrounds. I can guarantee its not like how some ppl make it like you are looking thru a screen door on the front or back porch and the entire screen looks like a screen door.. It is not like that at all. The lock screen, thats a design not Pentile. Just like the Bionic's lock screen. The notification shade is the same thing.

Again....at MY normal viewing distances...I can either barely see it or not see it at all. I promise you if you never point it out to someone or they never know what to look for, its a good chance they will never know.

It is really one of those things you HAVE to see in person. Like I used to not like Amoled screens....until I saw one in person...lol. Look at the different responses in this thread and similar threads. 2 ppl with a Charge say 2 different things. You just have to see these screens in person and form your own opinion.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] robstunner:
While I agree the pentile is noticeable and dare I say worse than my retired SGS2, I find myself looking past that and onto the build quality of this device vs that same SGS2. I was ok with the plastics on the Samsung, but this razr is just another level of beauty. Dont let just one negative decide what phone you want. If i went into work and said I hated my phone because i can see the tiny little pixels slightly more than my SGS2, I would get laughed out of the room. its just a phone guys :)

Also, you must take into consideration this qhd display is higher resolution than the samoled + in the sgs2
[Motorola Droid RAZR] Guyinlaca:
The color saturation on the screen is great, as is the contrast. The real problems with this new Super AMOLED are actually the opposite of the ones on the Bionic.

On the Bionic, black and white are the only colors that look totally smooth as solids. On the Super AMOLED, the colors look great, but the white and black text look very pixelated.

Mine has an issue that any gray or blue image looks like there's vertical camera fuzz lines all over the screen. I will take it to the store to compare, but that's really annoying, considering even the Bionic had a smoother display.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] circleofomega:
Spot the difference?

no points for guessing....

[Motorola Droid RAZR] bond32:
I think different brightness levels produce that green. Also you can't exactly compare those since they are on different screens.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] kanebear:
I came from an SGS2 and think the screen is just fine. The camera? Not so much. It's certainly better than the screen on the N9 (I went a wee bit nuts with the phones lately).
[Motorola Droid RAZR] circleofomega:
that's my fear you know...are they supposed.to do that? So lets say I turn the brightness to lowest, are my whites going to look like greens?

Don't think that's right is it? am I going to like it? No...
[Motorola Droid RAZR] andygallo:
I have the Epic 4G Touch. I had the original Epic 4G before that (pentile screen). When I first saw the Touch's non-pentile screen, I really wasn't that impressed. Until, that is, until I upgraded to the Epic 4G Touch and got used to the screen. Now I can't stand my old Epic's screen. I keep asking myself, "how did I think this looked THAT good before?"

I went into a Verizon store today and took a look at the RAZR. When I turned it on, I noticed the pentile immediately. I was shocked because I wasn't even thinking about the pentile nature of the screen. I just wanted to see the higher rez. It wasn't bad, but I could easily notice the pentile.

It's strange, I really didn't think I would be one of those people that poo poo on pentile screens, but I really don't know if I can go back now. I really hope the Samsung Nexus's super-duper resolution will truly help offset the pentile.

Another thing that I noticed is that Motorola easily could have fit a 4.5" screen on the RAZR. The 4.3" screen seems to me to be a wee bit small on a phone that size. I felt it had a lot of bezel going on.

But man, it was a solid feeling phone. Not quite as solid as, say, the HTC Sensation, but for being so damn thin, the RAZR feels really nice.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] zetsumeikuro:
My whites aren't green in the slightest, and I have it on minimal brightness with power save on. Some of the screens are like that and they have been exchanged in the Verizon stores. Not sure how your guys' carriers handle things, but I'm pretty positive it's not normal.

@andygallo post #47. They could of fit a 4.5' screen on here yes, but tbh there is a point where the screens just get "too big". I know it's a matter of personal preference, but for me the sweet point for phones is 4" to 4.3". Yeah the extra bezel can be annoying, but alot of phones have this as well. I wonder why they need bezels in the first place, I'm sure bezeless displays are possible. The RAZR is more solid than the sensation one of my coworkers had their volume buttons pop out of their sensation. Tbh I don't think there's a more solid hardware build on the market atm to compare to the RAZR.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] andygallo:
Well, I only say they could have put a 4.5" screen in is because the RAZR is pretty much the same size as my Epic Touch (which has a 4.5" screen). I guess I'm just used to that phone to screen size ration.

When I say "solid", I mean "can I beat this over someone's skull" kind of solid. The unibody HTC models are that kind of solid to me. A few of my friends have Sensations and they've had no issues. Altho, another friend of mine has the HTC Aria and it's volume button broke, hmmmm, maybe they need to work on that. I guess I should have said I was impressed with the build quality of the RAZR.
[Motorola Droid RAZR] zetsumeikuro:
Hmm I'm pretty sure you can smack anyone upside the head with the RAZR! Also I'm sure it'll look just as sexy as "day 1 coming out of the box sexy". I think I'll try to shank my coworker with my RAZR while i'm at it :D.

Trying to figure out what the chances are that AT&T releases the Galaxy S2 HD LTE in the next month or so. I'm pretty sure the ATT variant with the 720p HD screen went through the FCC a few weeks back...are they going to release yet another S2 variant this year?

I'm in a, soon to be, LTE market - so I think I've settled on either getting the skyrocket now, or trying to hold out for another month and see what they announce.

I know there's probably no concrete answer to this question, unless any of you beta testers want to drop some hints, but any thoughts would be appreciated.

I configure correctly my "mobilis MMS" APN, but if I enter "MMS" as apn type it doesn't find mms service on my carrier, if i let it blank I can send mms but in both case I can't receive them.

Does anyone knows what could be the problem? I saw in /system "buil.prop" that dns are 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 is it possible that dns are not matching those of my carrier (0.0.0.0)? is there a solution by editing this file or the mms_config compiled in the mms.apk?

I'm in new caledonia so i think nobody else should have this problem... need tytung help XD
