[QUOTE="Lifeisabeach, post: 1466133, member: 38864"] It's one of those things where you don't know how bad it is till you see how good it can be. I was fine with the display on my iPhone 3GS until my wife got the iPhone 4. That pretty much marked the point when I became more aware of how factors like the PPI can affect clarity. Not that I didn't know beforehand, but the difference between the two really drove it home. Of course some people are satisfied with a lower PPI or not particularly bothered by it. Nothing wrong with that. I've just gotten very fussy in this regard. It could be because I've become a bit far sighted, so maybe clarity in displays of these devices is becoming a more noticeable factor for me. EDIT: BTW, the guy at Best Buy tried to talk me into getting a case for it to get past the problem with the narrow bezel. I guess that would work, but at this point, especially after analyzing the screen specs in this thread, I'm increasingly convinced that it's just not a good value. I may go ahead and get a Nexus 7. I've long been wanting to dip my toes (well fingers!) into Android some. I'm just not sure about the size now. [/QUOTE]
