Different display technologies have vastly different temporal characteristics, leading to perceptual differences of motion, flicker, etc. Sketch of some common display technologies' temporal behaviour. The figure shows a sketch of how different technologies present a single white/grey frame. Time and intensity is not to scale.
The following table compares cathode-ray tube (CRT), liquid-crystal display (LCD), plasma and organic light-emitting diode (OLED) display device technologies. These are the most often used technologies for television and computer displays.
IPS (in-plane switching) is a screen technology for liquid-crystal displays (LCDs). In IPS, a layer of liquid crystals is sandwiched between two glass surfaces . The liquid crystal molecules are aligned parallel to those surfaces in predetermined directions ( in-plane ).
Many cheaper LCDs are only able to display 262144 (2 18) colors. 8-bit S-IPS panels can display 16 million (2 24) colors and have significantly better black level, but are expensive and have slower response time. Input lag, because the LCD's A/D converter waits for each frame to be completely been output before drawing it to the LCD panel.
AMOLED (active-matrix organic light-emitting diode; / ˈ æ m oʊ ˌ l ɛ d /) is a type of OLED display device technology. OLED describes a specific type of thin-film-display technology in which organic compounds form the electroluminescent material, and active matrix refers to the technology behind the addressing of pixels .
This list includes LCD, OLED and microLED display manufacturers. LCD uses a liquid crystal that reacts to an electric current blocking light or allowing it to pass through the panel, whereas OLED/microLED displays consist of electroluminescent organic/inorganic materials that generate light when a current is passed through the material.
The following is a comparison of high-definition smartphone displays, containing information about their specific screen technology, resolution, size and pixel density. It is divided into three categories, containing smartphones with 720p , 1080p and 1440p displays.
The displays are manufactured worldwide by different suppliers. Currently, the iPad's display comes from Samsung, [12] while the MacBook Pro and iPod Touch displays are made by LG Display [13] and Japan Display Inc. [14] There was a shift of display technology from twisted nematic (TN) liquid-crystal displays (LCDs) to in-plane switching (IPS) LCDs starting with the iPhone 4 models in June 2010.
