the n95 screen like the n73 has a flexible protective plastic cover matted over the TFT below. This cover is able protect the TFT below from cracking by knocks on the surface. Unfortunately it cannot protect against puncture by sharp object. |

Hi all,
Well as some one that actually does have a 16m colour hard screen and it's big to, I can honestly say it is very good indeed and not just for Multimedia but even apps look great. Possibly the best Calendar and E-mail views i have had on any device.
As we get more into quality Multimedia it makes perfect sense to me for screens to also get better to enhance our viewing experience. In my experience they also don't seem to have a terrible effect on battery life as stated by some, but then you would expect a manufacturer to take this into account when choosing the battery for their devices any way.
Marc

I say sofia might have a 16M color display. that would account for the delay in announcing, maybe SE is busy implementing the hardware changes into the new or modified UI. so will the successor of the p990i... |

Not only a sharp object, a decent bump can split the liquid turning everything black!!

N73 has the same screen protection and setup as the N95. If the screen is that fragile then we would have heard many N73 owners complaining about it. But we havent. Unlike an LCD monitor, I think the N95 screen can flex a bit without damaging the display. So as long you dont puncture the protective cover with sharp object, the screen should be able to take some bump (not that I am willing to try). I dont think Nokia would release a screen which cannot even withstand bumps from normal use.

So far the E61i and N95 are the only Nokios with that screen on the outside, The N73's is protected by an outer screen.

just off topic.
when we talk about the 65K, 262K or 16m color; first we will have to understand how these figures are coming out.
65K=2^16 (multiply 2, 16 times)
likewise 262K=2^18 and
16 million=2^24 = 16777216~16 million.
so its basically 65K means: the colour of a single pixel is represented by 16 bits.(like in PC monitor its the high color)
262K means: the colour of a single pixel is represented by 18 bits.
16m means: the colour of a single pixel is represented by 24 bits.(like in PC monitor its the true color) 
so more bits means more color:- means more vivid picture, not sharper.
sharpness is controlled by numbers of pixels.
240x320 screen will have more more sharper pics than on a 176x220. |

Ahhh thank you!!! The N95 is not "sharper" than K800!!
@ Boba It could be 15 900 000 mill colours?

no one ever said it was. its 240x320 in 2.0'' screen vs 2.6'' screen so naturally K800 would have more pixels per inch. |

ok, but is there any info, why se still dont use those 16m screens? is the only reason cos the screens they are using cheap? and a 16m screen would make the fones more expensive?

What would their reason be for using the 16 mill screens? Is it really needed? A cellphone doesnt need the best of screens its not really necessary, and in my opinion if the K800 screen (on the eye) can beat a N95 theres no reall point, unless they make the screens bigger.
