What about subpixel layouts? Would be an interesting topic (also including Windows ClearType)
album1 is my favourite edm album of all time
I came here expecting exactly that
you should make a video of the types of subpixel geometries, screens that are not standard RGB are blurry even modern tvs use BGR or triangular Oled which i don't understand why they use it
I thought this video is about that. I'm disappointed.
Oled displays look blurrier than LCD. Even after all these years, there is no such technological improvement to address this problem.
@@Meg_A_Byte Me too, that thumbnail...
@@ArunG273 it's because most of them don't use a standard RGB subpixel layout in a grid fashion.
@@Meg_A_Bytesame lol
What about Dom pixels?
Sub pixels are better than dom pixels.
Switch pixels do it all

Wait... Subpixels. Switch-mode power supplies. Desktops and laptops. HOW COULD I HAVE BEEN SO BLIND!
@@radomiami what if I tell you a lot of things run on a "master-slave" architecture

There is actually a lot more than meets the eye.

You should make a video on unicode
Wh4t 480ut l33tc0d3?
Unic code?
WTF-8
That's a pretty good idea. Its funny, I was just doing some scripting in Python just the other day where unicode stuff had me scratching my head.

I still remember when my dad bought a 500 pound 50 inch CRT back in the day. I was so cool back in those days. I watched The mask. It was a scary movie back then.
When I was a wee lad, maybe 18, my parents purchased a rear projection TV that came in an oak cabinet with disappearing folding doors. It took 4 people to get it into our ground-floor house. The top of it was at my eye level.
Was the mask vertical, like on trinitrons?
@@BoraHorzaGobuchulJim Carrey The mask I thought it was more of a comedy? Sexy action comedy? I also saw it when I was a child around 8 years old.
@@EricMeatlikeaking I know what you're referencing. I was speaking about the monitor's mask though :)
Great breakdown of how different display technologies impact color accuracy! As someone in the printing industry, this really highlights the importance of proper monitor calibration. Understanding how LCD, OLED, QLED, and QD-OLED handle colors helps ensure what I see on screen matches the final print. Thanks for the detailed explanation-this will definitely help in making smarter decisions and maintaining consistency in my work!
A co worker used to do tech support for printing machines and the moment you mentioned color printing he went on about printing presses he had worked on. The technology is well developed and a good printing press can produce incredible results, but the gobbledygook that those working with them spew is hard to understand when you're a computer technician. I'm impressed by the results, but the language they use when talking about the technique is not a language I understand. It makes dye sublimation printing seem simple.
I came here to find out why Google's phones have varying quality of manufacturing and was disappointed....I want my money back!
I bought a 7A after buying the bullet to move to android, turns out, my 7A had a defective chip since the battery only lasted for 1-2 hours without even touching the phone. Went back to iPhone after that
@@default_hobo you won't be missed!
@@default_hobo The funny thing is no matter what brand you stick with, they will have the possibility of poor design and /or manufacturing defects. Over the years iPhones have suffered from antenna problems, case problems, and other manufacturer/design problems. It's no different if you buy any of the Android phones.
@@TheMrBrianh Yeah, the solution in this case is warranty
@@default_hoboSame. I've always wanted a Pixel but when I finally bought one, it's frustrating. I also had a bad battery life on my Pixel 8. Editing 4k videos is a mess. My old iPhone 12 handles 4k editing better.
Nice to finally have an updated video on screen types, i watched the older video on this a few weeks ago and it was lacking some things this covered. Good job guys keeping the internet educated
This Tech overview was awesome. Wish you would cover how micro LED displays are supposed to work and why they are better, and why industry has been having such a hard time producing them cost-effectively at scale.
Couple things: there isn't anything physically special about red green and blue, it's just that they correspond to the color sensitive cone cells in our eyes. If we had different cone cells we would be using different color subpixels.
Also, these days high end WOLED is just as bright as QDOLED and has similar range of colors. Main advantage of QDOLED is color brightness. WOLED colors can look a little washed out at max brightness levels, but less bright colors look almost the same on both display types.
Watching this on an over 10 years old LG TV, which has still very awesome image quality. This thing will stay until it actually dies.
It may only be 1080p, but even as a professional digital media artist, I have the deep opinion, than 1080p is absolutely enough for most of motion picture that you consume. Depending on viewing size and distance of course, sitting close to a TV the size of a wall, you need 4K for a sharp image. But your average TV size together with average viewing distance, 4K is absolutely pointless. I personally only need 4K for use on the computer, so that as many gizmos of a program as possible fit on the screen at once.
I went 4K for my TV/monitor and will never go back. I sit about 6 feet from a 65" Scepter that cost me $400, and am constantly amazed at how awesome it is. And 4K gaming was easy- I expected my GPU to chug, but it didn't, though I did upgrade soon after so it went light speed!
Medium is premium. 1440p/1600p is where its at. Especially when games have terrible TAA.
@@Qimchiy Uh, no. Not even close.
@@NegativeROG it is. For monitors and laptops. Especially now that games aren't guaranteed to run 4K60 without the most expensive GPU.
Many console games don't even run native 4K60 but instead it's upscaled 1440p.
But if you can find something that's both better priced and better specced with 4K, yeah that's better. You could alternatively run the game at 1440p and Lossless Scale to 4K.
@@Qimchiy Console? Laptop? Oh, I was talking about real gamers with real hardware. Sorry you got confused.
Ahhh remember sticking your face up to the tv and seeing the pixels?
I miss how the tv static made the hairs on my arm stand up
I just bought a qled monitor. The colors are amazing.
The sudden barge of pixels at 00:14 made my eyes go searching for depth I guess and it looked so weird watching on a smartphone in a dark room.
Remember the Sharp Aquos it had RGBY pixels. In outdoor scenes the colour was fantastic at the time
QLED often lacks color accuracy because of to high saturation.
Color accuracy is not related to color purity, color accuracy comes from color profiling and management. Higher color purity results in a wider color gamut but if it's not color managed it will result in oversaturated, inaccurate colors.
Does anyone else see the background in Techquickie videos as vertical stripes rather than uniform purple?
just put the QD layer on top of tandem OLED for that low heat peak brightness

Thx
I use sponsr bloxk anyway😂😂
@saiferrahman5645 3 minutes until fbi is at your hou- adoption center
I have a Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 Edition that has a screen that looks better than most of the current LCD displays on other tablets and phones. Its beight, colors are decent and has a high pixel density for a tablet of it's size. A screen that is 2560x1600 before it was mainstream.
I still use my sharp aqueous quattron YRGB it’s amazing still.
I recently purchased a 240Hz QD Oled ultrawide (gigabyte MO34WQC2). the best display I’ve ever seen, only issue is it’s kinda bad in well lit rooms due to the purple hue that QD OLED suffers from, however I often play with my blinds down.
At 3:22 Samsung wasn't the first to market QLED TV's that was Sony in 2013 under the term Triluminos. Sony explained that it had a "Quantum Dot LED panel" that lead to better color. Sony also noted at CES that when Samsung released their first QLED panel in 2017 that "Sony has been doing that since 4yrs ago to 2017" 😂
Could have included a section on W-OLEDs as well
The claim that red, green and blue are "the prime colors of light" is suspect with no psycho-visual explanation. Color, as we learned in kindergarten, is a contiguous spectrum - hence rainbows
Its based off the fact that the three types of color receptors found in our eyes are most sensitive to red, green, and blue light respectively. To go a level deeper, the color receptors (cones) combine with the rods into three color channels. This forms the basis of color opponent theory, which looks to explain hiw our brain processes color information. You could argue the main colors are those involved in color opponent theory, which are red, green, blue, and yellow.
All of there are just oversimplifications though, color is very complicatid.
Seems like QDEL displays will be the way forward since micro-led tech still isn’t affordable or scalable
Watching this with nice color banding on your purple background.
what causes the image to blur during moving images?
I had a flat screen with a panel that didn't do that but my new one does..
Some screens have features that that interpolate frames or ad motion blur by default and they have to be switched off.
What is the deal with blue spill on high def tvs? Like most colors are normal, but blue suddenly gets oversaturated and kind of saturates the area around the blue.
Wait a minute. White LEDs are blue/UV LEDs with a phosphorescent coating on top….. I’m confused why those last longer than just blue. I know it’s hard to balance details and quickness, but maybe you should’ve gone into junction chemistry that must be where the difference is
Cause O leds.
@@BoraHorzaGobuchul But why? Is it a different junction material or is it just not able to conduct heat away quickly enough?
@@brentdennard6722 O in OLED is for "organic", and organic stuff decays. More energy needed for making blue light = more heat = faster degradation
That's only half an explanation. Blue is perceived as brightness. Another reason blue is more dominant on OLED since brightness is a huge problem with OLED.
blue takes more power to make brighter, which owers life span and increases heat in the pannel.
Techquickie stays TRUE to its mission: fun education. That's why I am still subscribed to this channel but not so for "the others...."
Its so interesting. I have an OLED TV which i love. I just bought a mini LED. They look so different. Oled has better color. The mini LED is crazy bright.
What about QD mini LED TVs? Are they different from mini LED QLEDs? I have been looking into some very large-screen (98" or 100") TVs from TCL and Hisense. I thought that the mini LED QLED from Hisense was the same technology as TCL If that's not true, I'd probably spend the extra $1,000 for 98" TCL than the 100" Hisense.
Why does red colored text appear a millimeter closer?
What about the LG display that had 4 sub pixels. One yellow one
Sharp had the yellow subpixel but it never made any sense. Without either a video standard to take advantage of an extended yellow gamut, or a backlight and filter that would allow a higher purity yellow than the red+green mix could provide, it wasn't able to actually do anything that made the image better.
LG does have a fourth subpixel on their TV and PC monitor OLED panels, but that one is white, and does carry very real advantages and disadvantages. The big reason for that subpixel is simply "more brightness", which it certainly delivers.
yes
Does this mean that by putting blue colours in your videos, you're effectively costing me money?!
I never signed up for this!
pixels and bits *designed in Cupertino California* are above average in price.
son fabricadas con tecnología de samsung, en sus fábricas
Are there any modern phones that have a headphone jack, removable battery and additional storage and SIM card?

LCD bad, Quantum Dot good
@@carltonlebossquantum dot lcd:
What about Qned?, I have seen the first TVs that have that in my country and they also have a lower power rating for some reason that might be interesting and if I remember correctly they were made by LG
It’s LG’s quantum dot combined with nanocell technology.
It is Samsung's miniLED. It essentially is an LCD display with a backlight that can be turned off individually.
My Galaxy Note 2 still has a great display... And it's 11 year old Super AMOLED display
bro my qled tv arrived literally five minutes ago 😭
I hope it's as good as you expected it to be.
Arent subpixels supposedly virtual ones, not physical? Or am i having hallucinations?
what about micro-LED? (and samsung Display AMOLED)
I mean, the Pixel 9 is better than the Pixel 8.
Good information 💯👍
So they have Quantum Dots to change the light, and to mitigate one colour degrading faster they use the one as a light source that degrades the fastest, why do they use blue LEDs with Quantum Dots?
Because it's higher energy it's easier to use it to create lower energy light. Found one interview with someone who described using red or green light would be like pushing a rock uphill
Fluorescence 🌈
QLED is awesome!
4:34 the couple from girlfriend reviews ?
QD OLED
Monitor display type or scrabble hand?
But how does tandem OLED works? We won't talk about that?
Meh, IPS LCD with LED backlit is good enough for me. The "AMOLED" and "Quantum Dot" and whatever OLED technology seems just a gimmick to me, because I saw minimal to no difference at all, and my room is normally lit so OLED looks dark and I burn 2 panels just by increasing brightness. Sadly, manufacturer don't manufacture IPS LCD that often...
Now don't get me wrong. OLED contrast is superb and the black level is truly black. It's just that the trade-off is not worth it in my opinion. My eyes could not perceive frame rate above 100Hz as it make me seizure and nauseating so I couldn't enjoy fast refresh rate. The black level of AMOLED doesn't look that good in well lit room because the reflective coating reflects the light.
My LG 29WK600 from 5 years ago still looks superb comparing to other OLED display monitors that I got 2 years ago which the colour is a little bit degrade (granted it was a cheap OLED). OLED is just not for me I guess.
Cuteness overrides your content
He didnt mention text is bad on oled
Does led or add-oled have the bad burn-in that tvs like the lg c1 oled still have?
You forgot MLA 2.0
You get slap on the wrist for not mentioning that pentile display has only 66% of the advertised resolution. Hint, count the subpixels and divide by 3.
How do these stack up vs plasma?
Because google has different phone models, so its obvious that some are better than others.
Justice for e-paper displays.
Ahhh that makes sense. Cool😊❤
What about amoled
*puts tinfoil hat on* what if all this "blue light is bad for your eyes/sleep" was just a way for screen manufacturers to make people wear those blue subpixels less and therefore make screens last a bit longer???
Red Green and Blue aren't primary in light. Our eyes just developed to see these three specific wavelengths. But light itself has notheing special there. It goes down from there to infrared and microwaves and up to ultraviolet and x-rays without anything special in between.
I thought this was going to be about Google Pixels.
I sell TVs and this video is amazingly informative!!!
A bit of a factual error, CTR is still the most color accurate display technique we have today, oled is almost as good but not quite there yet. CRTs is still used in some high end cinema coulor grading.
vga crt monitors also don't have a native resolution not to mention 0 input lag
Literally incorrect
@@S3anyBoy That CTR is still used as grading monitors?
Erm, nope
@@gamecubeplayer 0 input lag, but lot of refresh lag since the, run low freq. modern high rr oleds and lcds have much lower overall lag and better motion performance in general
TL:DR Not all Pixels are created equal
Yellow: Am I a joke to you?
Yes. 😅
But seriously, there are 2 different types of primary colors. Depending on if it's subtractive (absorbant) od additive color mixing.
What you describe with yellow is subtractive color mixing. This is where the color gets darker the more you mix together (everyone has tried to mix all colors and ended up with a dark brown/black ;) ). This is found in all applications where you mix paint or ot other non luminating materials. Because each color absorbs specific lightwaves, combining them results in the color that is left over.
Additiv color mixing is found if you mix light and is composed of red green and blue. It gets more white the more colors you mix. Because the different colors create a new color together.
"By contrast..." Nice unintentional pun.
i'm color blind and can only see about 8 to 10 colors how much does this matter for color blind people
Cool !

Thank you for notifying me this is very important information
I am more confused.

Some pixels are made by good... definitely F tier.
Just like humans
"Why are some pixels better than others"? Cus every time google releases a new phone it has better features than the last!
It makes me uncomfortable to hear a white guy talking about “color purity.”

@@NegativeROGQD-OLED TVs from Samsung are basically top tier. They have richer colours and also pretty bright (for an OLED)
@@SamSard Nice. Thanks for the info, I'll check them out.
technology utilizes a yellow fourth color subpixel
What technology? Yellow is made by mixing red and green light which is weird when school teaches us yellow is a primary colour.
School teaches us about subtractive coloring first, where the primary colors are cyan (basically blue), magenta (basically red), and yellow. Additive primary colors are rgb
@@Drunken_Horsepaint primary colors are different than light primary colors
@@Drunken_Horse quatron 4 pixels
Doesn't matter i'm blind anyway
Green is a secondary colour, you make it from blue and yellow. The reason we use green pixels insted of yellow is because blue pixels next to yellow pixels can bloom green in combination when you don't want them too.
Incorrect. You're thinking of subtractive cilor mixing, which is used in prints and paints. Additive color mixing, which is used in lights and displays, uses red green and blue.
Its been a few years since I was in school, but aren't primary colors red, blue and yellow?
The subtractive primary colors are taught as red, blue, and yellow, but are more accurately cyan, magenta, and yellow (like what a printer uses for color ink), but the additive primary colors are red, green, and blue. Additive primary colors are all about adding light while subtractive primary colors are all about absorbing it. Cyan, magenta, and yellow pigments absorb red, green, and blue light respectively.
Or to put it simply: red green and blue are the light primary colors; cyan magenta and yellow are the printer primary colors; and red blue and yellow are the primary colors in 1st grade arts and crafts
No

all you need to know about purchasing a TV, pc monitor, or phone is that OLED and AMOLED screens last about 2 to 3 years before burn-in ruins them permanently. LCD screens however, last for decades. this includes IPS-LCD, TN-LCD, VA-LCD, etc. sure OLED may look nicer to most, but it is a marketing meme. it's quite literally the epitome of planned obsolescence. s c a m
