Samsung to use Sub-Pixel VGA Screens

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the well-thats-something-isn't-it dept.

pdawerks writes "Samsung Electronics has developed a new graphics chip that will allow half VGA screens to produce VGA resolution. The novelty is specially aimed at future mobiles with VGA screens that will be less than 2.4 inches. It generates color using an entirely new driving method called sub-pixel unit driving methodology." Not sure if I think it is exactly new or not, but it's nifty.

    Wow. 2 entire minutes for someone to post something like that! I'm disappointed - I figured it would have been faster!
