Laminated Display Tech (Does the RAZR HD have it?)

[versd]

Hi,

Does anyone know if the RAZR HD has laminated display tech like the sgs3 or htc one x?

I don't exactly know what you mean by laminated. It has a corning gorilla glass over the screen. The panel it self is pentile type 1280x720 resolution 4.7in and 312 pixel density. Its similar to the galaxy siii just slightly smaller and slightly more pixel density.

laminated display technology refers the amount of layers there are in the display

to greatly simplify things


there are 3 layers to a touch screen display

top layer = protective glass/plastic - usually the gorilla glass or whatever equivalent material

middle layer = touch sensitive layer - has all the tech for the capacitive touch sensing etc

lower layer = display itself, whether it be LED or LCD

All those layers make for something rather thick, and the display being at the bottom means that your viewing angles arent great because the display is buried under a few layers.

newer screen tech integrates the touch sensitive layer into either the protective glass layer, or the actual display itself. along with gorilla glass 2 which is ~half the thickness of original gorilla glass, you get a much thinner display, with the display layer being much closer to the top - resulting in much better viewing angles and the appearance that the displayed content is 'printed' on the surface.

there is other stuff here to do with air gaps between layers, and diffraction being reduced by filling air gaps with translucent resin etc, but this is my simple understanding and explanation of laminated screen tech.



now ... does the razr HD have this?
