Keep it up HTC. alright but thats china bro, the weird thing is HTC was Taiwanese builder before ever being a brand, they came to be as device builders for every brand during WinMO days
and since the days of the Diamond they made a reputations on build quality
you saw their high tech factories in the Nexus One making off videos and went
I show off every time my two friends who bought my HD2 and Desire HD come to tell me how their device flew in the air landed on concrete floor and flipped endlessly and yet came out with minimal scratshes (not to count the amount of times those same two phones hit the floor with me)
it's preplexing whats happening with the One X the amounts of random defects is so much that really the chance of getting a defect-less unit is actually not as high as you might think
believe me i'm yet to put two One Xs next to each other and match, difference in screen qualities despite being the same panel id, mainly because of so much variation in the purity of the screen glue and the side-lights
and whats worse most complaints are coming from the HT batches ie: Taiwan
Mine is SH248 built in 8April, i have a perfectly fit screen, no matter how many times the phone overheated the screen is still rock solid rigid and yet Matt_SWE's SH24X is built in 29April and came with the same old dreaded problem, screen being loose out of box...crazy
chee..thanks for the quick reply mate.
any idea whether i have hit the jackpot this time or not?
my previous hox was HT23FW so i gues it was march 15 by ur calculations. It was perfect in every sense, dint have any of the defects/issues but had the backlight bleeding around the lower left corner of the frame.
he he i admit i have a bit of OCD....
but honestly this new hox has the better screen. whites are pure milky whites
the yellow screen is a lot better
the white does not have an pure 310dpi, the yellow is more sharp in pixel
why? because the Acer white one uses a less dense pixel grid
also better blacks/contrast
dont mean to ruin your party
the acer screen is a lot brighter and the white is insane, its almost boring how everything is balanced well lol
the grid is there but its no where near as bad as the pentile of course, at angles you can see the grid easier
anyway its just nit picking, im only saying there are advantages to the yellow screen the deep black and this grid thing, gives it a little amoled feel to its sharpness and a cleaner overall
the acer screen is less saturated than the sharp tho? maybe ur friend has a third vendor?
yup thats exactly what i am talking about the fizzile is no where near as bad as pentile but its there since i use glasses without my glasses i can see it more, head on with my glasses it disappears
i think we have one Acer and than the lamination gets in, me n my cousin have the same exact screen but colors r bit different on his also his has cleaner glue when viewed at an angle and so his view angles are cleaner, he also has the backlight spots at the bottom which i heard they r in there to assist view angles (i dont have those on the bottom but i have them on top and left/right)
the cleaner glue and view angles plus his white phone gives the illusion that its floating/closer to the surface but i checked n i checked its not really, its just that his screen is popping out more in your eye
uniformity has to do with lamination and not the panel vendor
lol HTC will drive us crazy with these variations
im so curious about the sharp screen now, sadly i don't have anyone around to compare, i only experienced it with my first HOX and i keep remembering it was a lot sharper
