Forums - Microsoft - First Microsoft Windows Phone 7 Series devices to boast 480 x 800 pixel displays

pbroy on 12 March 2010

I don't think there is any boasting here. It's just saying that you can get more performance out of your GPU due to the upscaler.

there is absolutely nothing to 'boast' about having 480X800 resolution on a phone.

Ther is also no point to push higher ress anymore, 640*480 had 15'' inch monitors then years back, now you have more on 3 inch screens.

sounds like something Bill Gate said about RAM size. ;)

 

but, everything moves forward, I wouldn't mind 720P on a 4 inch phone.

I thought HTC HD2 was already 720p but after some checking it's not. Well HD3 could be, but thanks to the WM7 he won't, since WVGA is now standart... too bad :(

It isn't a standard, it is a minimum.

The prototype looks nice, but I don't think that's going to be a production model. The important thing is going to be apps apps apps...so M$ had better get developers working on it in a fast and hurry to have the thing launch with like 20,00 apps or something.

not impressive really :p

How is this related to the new Win7 phones?

It's not, but he can't restrain to post negative comment.

In the past, I would have reported him, but now, I'm just likely to get a ban for doing so.
