If we can get Super AMOLED display, it would be great. On my Samsung Galaxy S it looks really great. And it looks good in daylight, too.

What about NOVA display then (LG Optimus Black)? They have reported, it uses 40% energy less than Amoled display. urodelo On Sat, 11 Jun 2011 15:47:25 +0200, Daniel Smetana 542@gmail.com wrote: If we can get Super AMOLED display, it would be great.
