Screen
Samsung Galaxy S II sports a 4.3" super amoled plus display with a resolution of 480x800 pixels which goes even a step further than the earlier super amoled display.
If you are new to the term, AMOLED means Active Matrix Organic light emitting diode. Skipping in on the physics of the technology, basically a amoled display brings a higher perceived luminance which is almost 1.5 times higher than that of a conventional LCD display. Similarly the contrast ratio is unbelievably great which therefore brings clearer images and enhances the readability no matter where you are.
In addition to that with a amoled display you can see better image quality even in moving pictures something that lacks in a LCD display.
Motorola Atrix comes with world's first 4" qHD display at 540 x 960 pixel providing a amazing clarity. A qHD display is basically a display resolution of 960×540 pixels arranged in a 16:9 aspect ratio. This resolution is one quarter of a full HD 1080p frame and is three quarters of a 720p frame. AqHD is reported to use 50 per cent less power through the use of RGBW sub pixel arrangement, which adds an extra white pixel in the usual three colour group. The device is also protected by the Gorilla Glass, a exceptionally damage resistant material that protects your device from scratches, drops, and bumps of everyday life while being sensitive to touch screen apps and sleek and seamless in style.
While both the devices come with stunning size features, a 50 percent less power power and that amazing pixel resolution crowns Atrix the winner of this round.
