New Delhi: Smartphones with 4K and quad HD displays will soon be a thing of the past as South Korea’s Samsung is developing what is called as a ‘super-resolution’ display that will come with a mind-boggling 11K resolution.
Samsung has partnered with the South Korean government, which has invested $26.5 million in the project, and 13 other companies to produce the super resolution display within five years.
An 11K resolution that translates into a 2250ppi density means the colours and detailing on the screen would be so profound that it will be able to reproduce a 3D-effect which will not even require you to wear special glasses.
This super-resolution display would measure 5.74 inches diagonally with a resolution of 11,264 X 6,336. Way behind the purported 11K display, full HD offers a 1080p resolution while a quad HD offers 1440p resolution. Although 4K displays, which offers 806ppi density, are likely to be unveiled by 2016, the question about their inclusion in smartphones still remains.
It might seem an exaggerated feature to offer consumers with such a high resolution display in smartphones, the company executive has a different take. Samsung Display Base Technology Department executive director Chu Hye Yong says “Although some might think that 11K as ‘over specification’ that consumers do not need, this can work as a basis for Korean display industry [to] take another leap if related materials and parts improve through this,” Mashable reports.
Keeping in consideration that more the pixels, high the power is required to support it; we can only hope that the super resolution 11K displays in future Samsung smartphones are energy-efficient or supported by equally robust batteries.
