It arrived at this by measuring the screen\u2019s capability with a spectroradiometer, a device that tests\u00a0the wavelength and amplitude of light waves emitting from the screen, against 41 reference colors. To measure a display\u2019s calibration, researchers use\u00a0a reference model. known as 1976 CIE Uniform Chromaticity.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><em>[Read: Life with the MacBook Touch Bar is awful and I hate it]<\/em><\/p>\n<p>On this scale,\u00a0<span>\u0394(u\u2019v\u2019) = 0.0040\u00a0equates 1 Just Noticeable Difference (JNDC) \u2014 a visible difference from a reference color.

This is because of how OLED technology works<\/span>. You can turn individual pixels off to create a black pixel. So you get deeper shades of black.\u00a0 That means it can display perfect blacks at 0 lux brightness.<\/p>\n<p>To measure screen\u2019s brightness, Displaymate uses APL (Average Picture Level), a measure to know how much percentage of a display is lit up as compared to a fully white display. The Galaxy S20 Ultra\u2019s screen ranges between 823 nits to 1,342 nits. That means you\u2019ll great legibility in even extra dark or extra bright conditions.\u00a0<span>For reference, the iPhone 11 is rated at a brightness of 770 nits to 905 nits, and the OnePlus 7 Pro at 583 nits to 813 nits.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Samsung\u2019s new flagship also scored very low on the reflection scale. It scores 5.4 percent on mirror reflection, which is measured by a\u00a0<span>spectroradiometer using a reflection of a pencil beam of light off the screen. Because of this, you can see the content on the screen rather than your own reflection in certain light conditions.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>All in all, Galaxy S20 Ultra\u2019s display is said to be top-of-the-line. And Displaymate notes that since Samsung is the largest OLED manufacturer in the world, we might see benefits of this display tech in other phones too.<\/p>\n<p>You can check out Displaymate\u2019s full test here.<\/p>\n<p><i>For more gear, gadget, and hardware news and reviews, follow Plugged on<br \/>\n            <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/plugged\">Twitter<\/a> and<br \/>\n            Flipboard.<br \/>\n            <\/i><\/p>\n<p class=\"c-post-pubDate\">\n                                    Published February 17, 2020 \u2014 15:59 UTC\n                                <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><script data-src=\"https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/sdk.js#xfbml=1&amp;appId=378011798897423&amp;version=v2.6\" id=\"socialSrcFacebook\" type=\"text\/template\"><\/script><br \/>\n<br \/>[ad_2]<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/thenextweb.com\/plugged\/2020\/02\/17\/the-s20-ultra-has-the-best-screen-of-any-phone-ever-heres-how-displaymate-measured-it\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[ad_1] For years now, Samsung\u2019s Galaxy series of flagship phones have had some of the best displays available on mobile devices.
