what's up everyone John retinue from TechnoBuffalo hearing one of the most exciting features about the iPhone 4 is its new Retina display and one of the ones I'm most excited about so I want to put the iPhone 4 head-to-head with the outgoing model the iPhone 3GS see if it really does live up to the hype so the specs on the iPhone 4 screen it's got the same 3.5 inch display as the outgoing 3GS set the Scottie 960 by 640 resolution with an 800 to 1 contrast ratio which makes it the highest resolution smartphone on the planet and the outgoing model to 3GS has a resolution of 480 by 320 so let's go like through some real-world tests and see if this new redness white actually lives up to the height so let's go ahead and open up notes on each I've got the same note open with the same test and just looking at the screen you can definitely see a difference right off the bat the for the page looks more true to color shows a bit more display on the right it looks a bit washed out let's zoom in on the text if you can see any through a difference here before the camera starts sort of blur out on us move these both down this a little bit and of course we've got the iPhone 4 here on the left and the 3GS there on the right so just the point where the camera starts to blur you can definitely see a difference in the screw now that's really the text let's go ahead and go to some websites and see if that's a difference as well on the text so we will jump over to TechnoBuffalo comm and we will zoom in go ahead and hit OK we will zoom all the way in as far as we can on the iPhone 4 and still no pixels it looks very clear I'll go ahead and do the same thing here and serve text to text right next to each other you can see that the iPhone 4 does look crisper it does look clearer although I'm not seeing any sort of pixels when I'm zoomed in all the way on the iPhone 3GS although the 4 is definitely easier to read so far the test it doesn't look to be that big a difference let's go ahead and try some other tests so other places will notice a big difference with the screens is by viewing video so what better place to watch a video then on YouTube let's go ahead and zoom out let's go we can get some YouTube videos up on here so we've got both phones ready to go here I'm gonna go ahead and load the same video with a top one that loads which is the Motorola Droid unboxing that I did so I'll go ahead and play both of those this is a speed test we'll do a full comparison Kimmy's two phones at a later date but we can Li see the quality of the video and I'll leave them on the portrait orientation here as well so that plate at the end that was weird let's try that one more time what's the other quality looks here I'll turn down the volume on this so you can just focus on the quality of the video all right so let's see if there's any sort of difference that we can tell between the two so we've got of course the iPhone 4 here and the 3GS and again through the same things that we saw with the text it looks a little bit crisper the colors look a little bit brighter and things look a bit true or to reality on the iPhone 4 then they did on the 3GS although it does look like it's anything that revolutionary I think maybe I'm looking at pictures and images perhaps we start seeing some differences and speaking of pictures and images let's see if there are any differences let's go ahead and check it that out I'm gonna go ahead and close out of this we'll close out of here as well what's going and jump into photos and see if there is anything that we can notice so here we've got a picture of my baby niece and this is really the first time where I can notice a very big difference between the two when we're looking at photos I can see that it's not just a crystal clear here on the 3GS and the iPhone 4 it really does look very nice I'm gonna see if I can zoom in a little bit more and see if we can tell the difference ladies as much as a camera or let us focus there we go and you can see you two the two of these there does look to be a very notable difference here between the two displays she looks cute neither one but looks more natural and real to life here in the iPhone 4 and I guys want to give you a quick overview of the Retina display and see if it really is a deal-breaker one way or another on the iPhone 4 look it's one of those things that certainly augments the whole package of the phone doesn't appear to be the sole reason to go out and buy one and I hope you enjoyed Jon render from TechnoBuffalo and I'll see you the next video bye-bye
