hey what's up guys is marques from the mkbhd channel and today we're going to be taking a look at the most important and the most impressive feature of the Samsung Galaxy Nexus and that is the display the screen is a stunner it's what you use every time you use the phone this phone is rocking a 4.6 5-inch 1280 by 720 Super AMOLED HD display now I actually already did a video by itself on why AMOLED displays are amazing so if you want to check that out that's the annotation right there but basically in everyday use the screen really spoils you if you get used to the screen it's hard to go back to something like a tablet with a screen that's less sharp or a less vibrant or less responsive now here's something cool to note about this screen you've probably noticed I'm using some dark apps and I'm using a black background every time that an LED display has to display something black it just doesn't light up the pixels at all so as you can see here this is my little oh le D display test where you can't even tell that the screen is on unless there are colors on it if it's black it looks like the display is off so everything every time you see a black notification bar or the black bottom of the display everything that's black is saving batteries so this is definitely a crew a really cool feature and a handy tip if you want to get a couple extra minutes out of your phone battery now gaming is a whole new world on the Galaxy Nexus using the 1280 by 720 display kind of shrinks down things to look like they're on a tablet because that's a tablet size resolution so like Angry Birds here kind of looks a little bit tiny you have to zoom in to play well but games that work with a high resolution look absurdly good I mean it's really sharp colors pop and it's a breeze a joy to use but the killer here the absolute jaw dropper is watching media even watching a simple high quality YouTube video or a movie trailer or just a good looking video on YouTube when it fills up to the full screen which is what it does when you're watching video it looks amazing it's full 1280 by 720 very sharp very accurate colors pop it's like having a movie in the palm of your hand this is a bite by itself could be a reason to want the Galaxy Nexus forget Ice Cream Sandwich this movie consuming experience the media consumption is just jaw-dropping and I absolutely love it having a huge amazing screen is also perfect for typing the Ice Cream Sandwich keyboard is great and coming from a phone with a physical keyboard it's only been about a day and I've already gotten used to it so clearly they've done something right the screen and the keyboard combo is really damn nice also in landscape mode there is a huge keyboard so as you can see by my ramblings it's pretty easy to type and correction is good don't make a lot of mistakes and it looks good I think it's really good looking looks like I continue to like my phone how I like woman but overall yeah this is the best screen I have ever used and you can argue that the HTC Rezound or the iPhone 4 and 4s or some other phones might have better quality displays and I say just throw a moet in there throw an O LED display in there with pitch black blacks and you got yourself a hell of a screen I got to say I am very very satisfied with the display again if you'd like to see any other parts of the Galaxy Nexus highlighted before my full review which will likely come after I've really thoroughly tested the phone let me know but this is just the whole screen experience so I hope you enjoyed it and give me a thumbs up if you feel awesome either way there's been mkbhd thank you for watching and I'll talk to you guys in the next one
