Vivo's upcoming Xplay 3S will probably be the first phone with 2560x1440 pixels display, and the company put that panel under the microscope recently to showcase just how much smoother everything looks even compared to the Full HD phone displays of today.

Now we have a picture of the eventual Vivo Xplay 3S chassis snapped in the wild, which shows a metallic looking frame, and a fairly large body dressed up in white. The source claims the back is Gorilla Glass 3, hinting at a unibody design, and sealed large 3400 mAh battery to power the resolute display. The rest of the specs are said to be a 2.3 GHz Snapdragon 800, 13 MP rear and 5 MP front-facing camera.

As for release date - Vivo hasn't shared anything officially, but there are wild guesses, ranging from this week to next month. In any case the Xplay 3S launch is not far away, and it might as well become the first handset to break the 500ppi barrier.

For a phone less than 5 inch there is no use of such resolution, to get the difference you need to have microscope for the phone :nanananana::nanananana:

why can't laptop vendors introduce 15-17 inch FHD screens let alone 2k resolution in 50k budget laptops :pullhair: ?

Definitely . A 15"incher with 768p resolution sucks , specially when you pay the price of a mainstream device but get uber poor quality displays ruining the overall experience.

They always try to dump their crippled down version of laptops screen. Don't know why the laptop manufacturers do not take Indian market seriously:banghead::banghead:.

Even 1080p is overkill in a smartphone let alone 1440p.
