Anything sub-8K just doesn't cut it for me anymore. Ever since that radioactive spill I was involved in a few years back, my visual perception has magnified on the microscopic level. 1080p looks like GameBoy Color to me.

iPhone 7's 'Best LCD Display Ever' Marks 'Major Upgrade Over iPhone 6'

Three out of five purchased by family members are yellow.
It's a normal fault that appears when Apple launches a new model. Some get better over time or we go through the inconvenience of returning to the Apple store. It's a quality issue.
Fortunately my Nexus, Samsung and other Android phones never have this problem.
But but it's not OLED. Fire Tim fire Tim! Who cares what science tells us. We like the letter O.
The iPhone 7 display is indeed very impressive. Comparing to an S6 Edge the colours are noticeably better. However, LCD has been pushed as far as it can go and 750p doesn't cut the mustard in 2016, let alone 2014.
They have to use all those colorful words because the review is essentially Apple'/ paid advertisement
it was the first thing I notices when I turned on my 7. The color and brightness are definitely better and noticeable compared to the 6s.
Appreciate your in-depth scientific study there.
Yes, me too.
However, seems like based on DisplayMate's comment, 6s' screen is slightly too blue and 7's screen is very closed to D65 standard(don't know what this means, but looks like 7's warmer screen is better?)
Owned a LG G4 and there's no difference to my eye for sharpness during normal use.
I have a strong feeling that Apple will not go OLED or AMOLED, but instead go to micro LED.
IPhone 7, or 6ss, whatever you want to call it, it is turning out to be a decent upgrade overall.
I don't like change for the sake of having something look new. With the exception of removing the headphone jack (for some as it doesn't bother me), this has been a nice upgrade.

Ya know what? It is there. Apple deserves credit for this display and it's use on the iPad Pro. Display Mate is spot on.
If the rumours so far are wrong and Apple goes a fourth year with the same design + small upgrades I will be extremely disappointed. It's past time they got rid of the bezels and made other advancements.
That's one review of a hand picked sample. A lot of MR readers would say otherwise. I.e. worse than the 6 series on their phone.
Basically this review means jack. Too many new ip7 owners are complaining of yellow dim screens. This review sounds more like a paid ad from Apple.

Yet somehow Displaymate, which purchases their own units through retail channels, always gets a great example? Seriously, if the 'yellow' issues really stood up, somebody would have the test data to back up these accusations.
I don't know... I came from a 6 to a 7 and it feels like a massive upgrade to me. It's all relative I guess. Sure, it's the same physical form factor if that's what you're talking about. But the screen, speed/RAM, cameras/OIS, stereo speakers, battery life, and haptics are all huge improvements, not to mention the better looking design and water resistance.
