Since the Pixel 2 has an OLED screen, it can
turn individual pixels completely off, allowing for true black backgrounds that waste no power.
Not exact matches
My immediate reaction is to assert that infra - red can be detected by a digital camera so it could probably be used to photograph an interference pattern demonstrating waves and by
turning down the intensity
individual pixels might be detected firing off one at a time demonstrating the particle nature of the I.R. Have I checked this remark?
That means
individual pixels can be
turned on and off, which in
turn creates better contrast and ultimately better dynamic range.
First, because OLED (organic light - emitting diode) displays can light up
individual pixels, they can also
turn them off, yielding deep blacks and some staggering contrasts that LCDs can't match.
Remember: AMOLED means the screen activates
individual pixels, so if something is black that
pixel is
turned off.
The
individual photosites, or
pixels, are bigger on this phone though, which means they suck in more light, which in
turn means better image quality — and the difference is notable when you compare it with last year's device.
Deep blacks and excellent contrast ratio as
individual pixels can be
turned off, making it well suited for HDR.
AMOLED screens work differently from LCDs in that
individual pixels can actually be
turned off.
Perfect blacks can be achieved since
individual pixels can be
turned on / off.
Compared to LCDs (liquid crystal displays), OLEDs produce true black colors because
individual pixels can be
turned off.
Being able to dim and
turn off
individual pixels also saves on power.
Clearly, this isn't as good as OLED technology that allows each
individual pixel to be
turned on and off, but it a much cleaner picture than standard edge - lit TVs.
As an AMOLED display you should expect perfect black levels, as it can
turn off
individual pixels to deliver those true black colors, and as such the contrast efficiency on this display is incredibly high as well.
This is very energy efficient because Super AMOLED displays simply
turn off
individual black
pixels so your Galaxy Note 5 only uses a little bit of power while enabling quicker access to a very productive function.
