Come on Tim, you already have one.
Exactly, 10 months out, maybe less, the design should be finalized. I think these sources are just running a little behind the actual development timeline for next year's iPhone(s). Maybe in a few days it will be two or three prototypes and a few days later we'll hear from these sources that the design is now finalized.
Blown out whites... So bad that detail is completely lost. The camera on the 7 is crap unless the lighting is "perfect".
Can you tell us what devices have burn in, I have two OLED devices over a year old with zero burn in, how old were they when this happened?
People do report burn in and there seems to be ample evidence that such a concept exists with oled whether or not your own device exhibits this feature.
I've had three Samsung phones (S7 currently) and I have a Sony OLED monitor. Never noticed any burn in on any of them.
Someone's getting their panties in a bunch. I'm not saying this hasn't happened, I'm asking when, and what devices. Are they older units, as the reliability of these screens gets better each year..the point being that any concerns over next year's screens might be moot if it's 3 year old case studies that are being used as evidence.

Displaymate did an indepth review of the s6 screen last year and labelled it perfect, with 100% colour accuracy. The s7 is even better. How can this be described as not natural is beyond me. The screens have different viewing modes like a TV, you can turn up the saturation for gaming if you like that sort of thing, but there's also the natural.setting. to say that you hate oled is such a weird comment... let me guess tho, when apple do oled and it looks the same, you will love it. Lol
Someone is getting their panties in a bunch, and it's not me.
The oled implementation on the galaxy does give me a headache after using the phone for a bit. So I can't say I really like it.
Well you are royally screwed when apple copy the same technology then aintcha...
So throw some ad-homs around. Got it.
If apple copied oled, then using that logic, Samsung copied almost everything else, wifi, cellular chip, not even their own processors, fingerprint reader, etc.
Ok, if you want to play your oh so beloved word games.. when apple start using oled technology in their screen displays have you considered what you will do as you hate oled? Stick with a 6 plus forever?So throw some ad-homs around. Got it.

There is micro-oled and other developments on the horizon. Until then yep, I'll stick with the 6s or 7s or whatever they call it.
"got your panties in a bunch" and "royally screwed"...talk about word games.
CPU/GPU combo is already great. The problem today is iOS.
Apple is stubborn as hell because they sell millions in the first few weeks.
Profit margins are higher when you slowly iterate.
It sucks, but Apple does not need a Note 7 to blow up.
They could improve the displays though. With that I agree.
They should use standard resolutions.
